Legion Go has a better-looking screen and more immersive since the size is 8.8in vs 7in. This comes out to be approximately 66% larger screen area on the Legion Go vs the Ally. Legion Go feels like you're looking at a small tablet screen vs a phone screen. Using the Legion for windows is usable where it's harder to use windows on the Ally.
Coincidentally, the Ally is much more portable than the Legion Go (Shocking right)
The Legion Go has a quieter fan vs the Ally. Also, the Ally gets warmer feeling especially on the screen.
Ally has a better, more streamlined software experience. Legion go software has some quirks, but the software is leagues ahead of it when it first launched and nice to use now.
The buttons on the Ally are a little better feeling but the joy sticks on the Legion Go feel better.
The speakers (if you use integrated speakers) are much better on the Ally vs the Legion Go. Ally speakers sound like a laptop speaker and the Legion Go sound like a tablet speaker. I use Bluetooth headphones mostly on both devices.
The kickstand on the Legion Go is a great addition, use it almost every time I use the device, had to get a case for the Ally with a kickstand but it's still not as nice.
I like the IO of the Legion Go more than the Ally. Two USB ports is better than the one on the Ally and Asus ROG XG Mobile Interface on the Ally that isn't really compatible with anything other than Asus Ecosystem.
Although all companies can be sketchy, I think Asus is a bit more scandalous to consumers. Seems like they have a track record of leaving some consumers high and dry with warranty repairs and such. I don't have any direct comparison with this but only the perception online.
Here are some reddit posts asking the same with much more knowledge than I have.

IMO most generally lean towards the ally with it's smaller body and screen supporting variable refresh. That said, people who have the Legion Go love it so I'm not helping much lol

I think if the X revision had oled screen, 32GB of ram, and hall effect joysticks, then maybe it would justify the increase. Maybe I am asking too much...

The drawback is likely some tinkering required, but I'm okay with that.

The 2 Fairs were completely clean, came with box and all accessories there.
The Good was somehow in a bubble wrap with 0 accessories.
Manager, "huh that's weird this should not have been marked good"
I asked him about the discrepancies, he said usually when the stores have a lot of open box stock in these, they will mark the majority as Fair to set a lower price to get the item out quicker.
So it's oddly enough, it's not always based on condition of the item, it depends on stock as well.
I've also had a few excellent and good conditions items and they were complete shit... Sometimes they weren't even the same item.
So definitely take chances with Fair items especially items that were known to have large stocks, but highly recommend checking it at the store. It gets very weird trying to return it when you received the wrong item. The look they give you..
