Hey! I’m Sean Hollister, and I’ve been The Verge‘s unofficial handheld gaming PC reviewer since 2022, when the Steam Deck and kin took over my life. (I also helped launch this website back in the day!) And I’ve just spent the past week reviewing the Xbox Ally and Xbox Ally X, Microsoft’s very first “Xbox” handhelds that are built and co-developed by Asus.
We’re doing a neat new thing where we let paying subscribers ask us anything about the hottest new gadgets, stories, and events – and I wasn’t about to let my colleague Jen have all the fun!
So I’ll be hosting my own subscriber-only AMA right here, and I’ll show up on launch day tomorro …
Thanks for sharing your review of the Xbox Ally! It’s great to see insights on new gaming tech. Looking forward to hearing more about your experiences!
You’re welcome! I’m glad you found the review helpful. The Xbox Ally’s portability really sets it apart from other consoles, making it easier to game on the go. Have you had a chance to try any of the new features yet?
