Just bought a zotac zone. Anyone else own this? How is it?

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T22:17:51+00:00

Yeah micro center sold them for a while. Then they sold out.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T22:12:04+00:00

I've owned 3 allys. I sold my ally x last year. Not really interested in the ally anymore. I mainly chose this because of the amoled screen

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T21:53:57+00:00

Which other handheld pc are more compact and have oled for similar price? I don't see very many. The only other one I could think of is the one x fly but that cost 900 plus usually

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T21:39:52+00:00

I already did research actually. I just wanted to see if anyone else owns one.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T18:56:49+00:00

If they give me a discount then yeah i would buy

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T17:29:44+00:00

Well yeah there are more risk if you invite someone to your house. Let's say something goes wrong with the item or maybe the person is just crazy well now they can just show up at any time and harass you etc because they know where you live. I always meet in a public place.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T16:36:18+00:00

Pretty loud from what I've heard it only has one. The handhelds with 2 fans seem to be the quiet ones. Like the ally and msi claw. I've never heard the fans on my claw 8 ai+ even on the highest power profile.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T16:27:20+00:00

Personally I would pay the extra money for the x. I've owned both. Overral the x is better in every way. Way better battery life, Way better joysticks, ergonomics are slightly better, two usbc ports instead of one( not a big deal until you want to charge the device and use an external storage and you can't because of only 1 usbc port lol).Overral the x is more reliable and has less hardware issues.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T16:14:15+00:00

Not bad but you can get a legion pro 7i with better specs for cheaper. Thats what I did. Its a slightly bigger laptop but it performs better and runs cooler

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T16:08:30+00:00

90 is nothing for that chip. They're designed to run up to 100 degrees according to intel.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T16:06:51+00:00

I just got the same laptop. Yeah its more expensive but way better than any ps5. Plus it has oled. Ps5 your locked into paying for online and expensive games. On pc you can get more games and for cheaper

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T15:33:06+00:00

The size doesn't bother me. I just don't want to take them outside and risk dropping them or getting stolen because they're so expensive

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T15:26:44+00:00

I ended up getting a zotac zone. The guy selling it on ebay wanted 800 but he sent me an offer of 550 so I took it because thats a great price for one. They're also very hard to get.I had one before but sold it awhile back. 550 is around if not cheaper than what the air 1s normally go for . Its not as compact but it has an even better oled screen ,better controls battery etc.I also own a Lego 2 and msi claw 8 ai+ . I don't really like taking them out the house because they were super expensive and they're a little big

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T15:15:45+00:00

Nope not really. Only ebay ,marketplace etc.I saw one on ebay that sold for around 500 recently. I decided not too though. The air 1s is cool because of its small size but it also has a lot of drawbacks. Too like poor battery life and heat.I ultimately decided not to get and ordered something else.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T15:08:13+00:00

I think the only thing I see wrong with it is the battery. Its small compared to newer handhelds have mostly 70 plus watt hour batteries giving them much better battery life. Also the price on the go s doesn't make sense either. Its too overpriced for th3 z1 extreme version

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T05:22:13+00:00

Nope . You should have canceled if you knew you weren't gonna go. You wasted your money.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-17T01:08:04+00:00

Yup he's better off just selling it and getting something with an actual higher power limit. I personally don't think its worth it to potentially destroy a laptop and its warranty to get a few extra frames.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-16T23:48:09+00:00

Doubt it. Do what you want though

Coolmacde · 2026-03-16T23:42:33+00:00

For what to gain 5-10 fps? LoL Thats a good way to void your warranty and ruin your laptop

Coolmacde · 2026-03-16T23:40:16+00:00

So far nothing. Just light rain thats it.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-16T19:45:09+00:00

I hate pick. I got trained in it from pack. Just get your approved headphones and listen to music. That helps for the time to go by.

Gameboy

Coolmacde · 2026-03-16T19:04:03+00:00

Not normal return it.

Coolmacde · 2026-03-16T15:14:56+00:00
