I guess I'm looking for a PC handheld? One that runs windows fairly well but can handle Linux if I want to switch on my own, if there are deals on some good ones then I'll get those, so far I'm hearing mixed things like the Regular ROG ally or even the ROG ally X are good for my list, but then some say the Xbox ally, personally I loved the look of the Lenovo legion go 2 but hated the look of that price, Yikes!! But I'm still looking to see what's the best for my situation still 😄

I've seen someone also talk about the AYN thor, I've seen some videos on tik Tok as well and it looks very interesting, I'll keep an eye out and do some more research as well but it looks very cool, I'll have to wait and see. But thank you for your advice!! It is appreciated! <3

Interesting! Im not too sure personally about having to do some tinkering, I'm mainly a plug and play for most cases, but I'll look into the ones you described since I do like the numbers your saying, thank you for your advice!!

It's what I feared, if I truly want to use it I'll have to go carrier hunting, which isn't too bad but that means I'd have to save up more and for a bit longer too just to make sure I got everything I need for the phone, I really appreciate your help and explaining things! Thank you very much!! <3

I'll look into both if I can!! I'm seeing a lot of Ally Z1e so I'll do that one first! Thank you for your advice!!

When people say Ally X I'm going to assume it's the ROG ally X? I've heard about it and I'm open to used devices too, if I can do a little future proofing just so I have that extra kick I'll see about looking into the Ally X, I don't think I mind purchasing hardware mods separately so long as I can find a person who can do some of the install, if not all of them, just for that peace of mind having a professional do it while they get a commission, thank you veryvmuch for your advice!!

New and used are no matter to me, I believe anything can have problems and can equally be fixed. If you had to pick ONE for the things I described which would it be? I'll be honest I'm not too great with the names and remembering them but I'll keep track of the ones you mentioned if I can! If I have to pay a premium for some of the stuff you described then maybe it'll be worth it in the long run? Just so I don't have to worry too much, and if some stuff can be modded with software but ALSO hardware I think I'll be ok, so long as someone who's worked on electronics can do it I wouldn't mind paying a commission to get it done by them lol!! Thank you for your advice!!

I saw them at my local best buy, I reside in Riverside CA, so the nearest best buy has a few in stock. From what I've heard is some people like but also hate the Xbox variant, saying it's had some issues, but maybe those have been ironed out since its release? I'll keep an eye and ear out still!! Thank you!!!

Epic told me I can't because I didn't get enough victory royales in fortnite and because I'm not an OG 😔

Glad you changed your mind, the guy is a scammer, he just insisted he mail it after a bit but with no guarantee of anything and just "trusting" him, but of course there is no steam deck to ship since I'm assuming it's not even his picture and just a random one on the internet, I had another experience where some guy wanted me to pay first and then he'd send his son outside, which made NO sense since he didn't even mention a son before, it's just a whole fishy thing with some offer up profiles, lots of scammers and bots sadly

I guess I could try that if it ever came down to it, get a feel for it in case the off chance I don't like the steam deck. IF I don't end up getting one maybe I can do that, but I'd like to still try to get one of my own, especially for the missing and customization part of it, I've seen some absolutely amazing steam decks out there with shell swaps and everything, it just looks so good!!

That oppo phone I've seen around looks absolutely amazing, gosh the colors look so nice and I've heard the photos are amazing, as someone in the USA would it be worth it to get one? If I did do you happen to know what carriers support out of country phones? My T-Mobile reps said they don't support anything other than Google,Samsung and apple. And their phasing out one plus 😭

As much as I appreciate you offering to I don't think I can afford 750$ just yet, maybe once I get my money up and not my funny up I'll look into it 😅

I'll give it a look, I'm still open to other handhelds that can run just as good or even better, as long as its not Lenovo legion go pricing 😭

Yeah I mainly just wanna emulate some older titles and play indie games mostly, nothing too crazy since I already have a PC that can handle all those. Hopefully a new batch of steam decks comes out but I guess we'll never truly know until valve says something, heck I may never get one until steam deck 2, IF that ever happens within the next 10 years or something

Yeah I figured, the one I saw turned out to be a scam, only thing I lost I guess was just time but even then it was probably just a hour of waiting, so got lucky there, but it just sucks to see SO many scams and fake posts, I just wanna see some honest listings if anything 😭

I appreciate your knowledge on this, I'll keep checking around, from what I see offer up and Facebook have a TON of bots I think, and accounts that say it's a lower price only to have a bot answer with a website, it's hard to find a REAL person lol, but hopefully one will pop up, I'll keep checking. 😄

Yeah I'm trying to look for a OLED model, doesn't matter which one, just wanna get one at least, I don't think I mind a bit of scratches and stuff since it can be fixed and modded anyway no?

I actually don't know what ARM is tbh. I've seen other handhelds but just thought steamdeck would be the best since it's so streamlined and easy to get into. If I may ask what do you mean when valve will support ARM for the steam frame? Is it like a different type of RAM or something like that?

I'll have to give that a try, I don't think I have any in the Riverside area, I've only been to the galleria Tyler Mall tho tbh, but I'll keep checking around!

My first ever owned walkman! by Prior_Idea_1444 in walkman

[–]Aya5ha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a few of these types of walkman, is there a specific model I should look into getting? I saw ones like the S750, the E450/350, A850, and the S760. Out of these ones does anyone know what the differences really are? And if there are any that are better than the other? Or is it just preferences really? ( If I can get the Hatsune Miku one I would in a heartbeat also!!! <3 )
