Shortly after the price reduction on Steam Deck, ASUS launched a cheaper ROG Ally handheld machine, equipped with AMD Phoenix APU, which has lower performance than the previous Ryzen Z1 Extreme APU, but the price is also lower. 100 US dollars, priced at 599 US dollars (currently about RMB 4367).
The new, cheaper ROG Ally handheld model is RC71L-Z1512 and is powered by a Ryzen Z1 processor with a 6-core Zen4/Zen4c APU and 4 RDNA3 compute units. GPU performance drops significantly compared to the 8-core Zen4 and 12 CU RDNA3 Ryzen Z1 Extreme. The new phone also comes with 512GB of storage, and there’s no word yet on 256GB or 1TB models.
ROG Ally handheld features a 7-inch 120Hz display with 1080p resolution and support for AMD FreeSync Premium and FSR (FidelityFX) and RSR (Radeon) super-resolution technology. It comes with 16GB LPDDR5-6400 memory, which cannot be upgraded manually.
Similar to the Ryzen Z1 Extreme version, the Z1 version of the ROG Ally handheld console also supports the XG Mobile external graphics card expansion, which can be connected to the external graphics card provided by ASUS through a dedicated interface. However, the price of the external graphics card is more expensive than the game console itself.
The Z1 chip version of the ASUS ROG Ally handheld console can now be purchased from BestBuy and ASUS official stores in the United States. In China, only the Z1 Extreme version is available, priced from 4,999 yuan.
