This evay store has been coming up with decent refurbished stuff in this market. I didn't think I would get excited to see a handheld a couple years old for $700, but here we are.

Great find.

I can't comment on the price, but can vouch for the device.
I ran windows on it for 2-days, then switched to SteamOS and haven't looked back. Some prefer Bazzite. Runs all the retro games I want (haven't tried anything beyond Switch 1).

Also, easy upgrade to 2TB using 2280 nvme. Also, not gonna comment 2TB pricing…

Is this the better deal over the Xbox Ally for $499?

I bought this when it was released and have been dual booting windows/bazzite since launch. I used to bring it when traveling instead of a laptop, but I put a 4tb 990 pro in it back when those were affordable and now I'm afraid of it getting lost lol. It's been a little workhorse for gaming and simple computer tasks.

7" is too small. Not OLED is a big drawback.

I would get a OLED laptop with GPU before this since $700 is quite hefty.

Legion go 2 would be perfect but completely crazy in price.

The Z1 Extreme is lacking an NPU, so it will be a poor choice to run AI models.

That's not true.

Most models currently don't run on NPU. They run on the GPU.

I'd say so. Xbox Ally is weak, unless you get the Xbox Ally X version. Both the Ally X and Ally Z1E is close to Xbox Ally X in performance., but the X has 24GB of RAM over the Z1E, and same as Xbox Ally X.

Personally I also like the form factor better, but Xbox Ally is supposedly a lot more comfortable.
