Why the fuck didn't they put in an OLED screen?

Who knows if Microsoft will make it generally available to install for regular consumers or other manufacturers of handheld PCs

The ROG Ally is twice as powerful as the Steam Deck: it displays 1080p at 120 Hz, whereas the Steam Deck is often limited to 60 fps, or even 30 fps at 720p. In addition, the Steam store will be directly accessible on the ROG Ally, and it is already possible to install SteamOS on it, as on current large machines. It is therefore much more energy-efficient than Windows.

They always do this because they know many nintendo cultists will double dip. This way they can sell 2 consoles to 1 person. Remember, unlike sony and microsoft, nintendo makes sure they always turn a profit with each console sold, so selling as many consoles as possible is in their interest

My instant reaction is that means it will be intrusive, annoying, and extremely anti-consumer. That's on top of shitty performance because half the of the unit's processing will be devoted to some kind of telemetry or DRM. MS can't develop competent software anymore.

They've been making oled tvs since 2010
they've been making qd oleds since 2020 that went into monitors and now qd oled and woled monitors are everywhere for cheap
phones have amoled and whatever for decades
hundreds of millions of oled phones are produce annually and sold for like 200€
Millions of oled tablets are produced too. Now they're doing like wacky foldable oled phones.

rly? Just, not a single manufacturer in china can do it? The form factor of a smallish tablet is just too hard?

I can't, why would anyone get this when the Steam Deck exists, why would anyone get this when the Steam Deck 2 will exist? Windows isn't even made for gaming, so the retards claiming Microsoft's self-proclaimed debloating is going to work, know nothing. The original Xbox team had to sneak into the office to debloat Windows for OG Xbox which led to Bill Gates cursing them out and almost firing them. SteamOS is better for gaming and made with a pure console-like feel.

OLED screens are bad for our health.
They damage our eyes much faster.
They greatly increase eye strain.
OLED screens should never have been released.

This is a lie, you will have to go on the Desktop, download and install the launcher from there, and when it's installed your Steam library is there, you can only play them in Steam, not from the Xbox PC app.

I hate Microsoft so much for constantly holding back this industry. Refuses to update their console controller to current standards set by Nintendo and Sony. Refuses to update their PC controllers to current standards set by Valve. They're keeping gaming from innovating.

Smartphones these days have 2K, even 3K screens. Yes, a 7-8 inch, 1080p screen is more than enough, but no, 720p is disgusting, it's a blurry effect. The good thing about the Rog Ally, since they're going to put Steam on it, is that you don't have to tinker with Steam Deck to get the Xbox store.
Anonymous No.715375705
I'm promoting the ROG ALLY, but it's not just the OLED screen that's a flaw. It's also missing the All Effects sticks. So that's also a big downside. I can understand why Xbox wants to make a profit by selling disposable controllers every 6 months. But we're still talking about a portable console where the controller, so to speak, we'll keep until the end of its life.

That's simply not true. 800p on 7.4" deck has 204ppi. That's higher PPI than high end 27" 2160p desktop monitor (164ppi).

Except that pixel intensity isn't enough to watch. There's also the distance at which you're viewing. So, when you're in an office in front of a 27-inch screen, you might be at a forearm's length. Whereas when you're with a handheld console, you might be at a hand's length.
Besides, that's why virtual reality headsets would need at least 8K to be, in quotation marks, watchable.

Funny thing about most smart phones that even though they come with a "3K" screen, most of the time by default they're set to 1080p or a lower resolution and the vast majority of people have no idea and never bother to change it.
