All while this Ally 512GB deal costs $50 less than the Steam OLED 512GB. Slickdeals is all about telling people about the best bang for your buck, not arguing about which console you like better. But if youre willing to go for the older Steamdeck LCD model, it becomes very good price to performance wise. That could be had for $400 for the 256GB model.

I was soooo disappointed in my legion go. I'll be returning it once I have some free time. I love the screen size, but the legion go software is trash compared to the Ally's and the lack of VRR just sucks so bad.
Steam deck is okay if you're comfortable with low frame rates. The refresh rate adjustment slider on the steam deck helps with eliminating judder by lowering the refresh rate to something that matches the fps to pure able to consistently hit in game.
Anyway long story short the Ally is the way to go lol

Double max brightness, HDR support, OLED vs IPS, fantastic color gamut. IIRC some of the previews said it's straight up one of the best screens they've seen. Ally does have some advantages there with the higher refresh rate and the higher resolution but those both take much more power to drive and will drain the battery faster so there are trade-offs.
Not trying to say the Deck OLED is the way to go, but there is more to consider than just the raw power. A better screen is like a visual upgrade for everything you use the device for so it's a notable point of comparison.
