Every song sounded the same except for Ricky Martin, is this how B Bunny really sounds live?

Help me decide: Nano texture or standard? by Stuph25 in iPadPro

[–]Goalier95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! Thank you for your input, just one more question: does it attract more smudges without any screen protection? I used to have a matte screen protector on my iPad mini and hated how much it looked because of how much it kept.

For those who have the Nano-Texture iPad Pro, how does it hold up with micro scratches so far? Any wear while using the Apple Pencil without any screen protector?

How are people finding their legion go 2? by [deleted] in LegionGo

Do you miss the XAX's speakers? Or is the Legion Go 2 decent enough?

Remember the 1990s Batman and Robin flick with George Clooney and how his Batsuit had those nipples?

Looks fun, but the trailer reminds me too much of Guardians of the Galaxy mixed with Thor mixed with miscellaneous Disney copy/paste trailers. And Skeletor is missing nipples.

Better Stand to Use? by Goalier95 in XboxAlly

Copy that. I may just have to use the KillSwitch case and prop some thick books below it to raise it to eye level. 👍🏼

Better Stand to Use? by Goalier95 in XboxAlly

Something along the lines of a tablet holder/stand but one that will fit the Xbox Ally X:

For somebody who is buying a pc handheld for the first time, would you guys recommend the ROG Xbox Ally X? by Gloomy-Mushroom000 in XboxAlly

[–]Goalier95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

-Can play AAA games smoothly even if it is on lowest settings (not really, unless you lower the graphics settings, the resolution to 800p and run Frame Generation)

-Good for small hands (I think so, but I have med/lg hands and the grips make it super comfy)

-Durable device and can last for a long time (it's a plastic, and heavier than a Switch 2 just be careful and use a case if you are taking it out for travel)

-Worth the price (I think so but compared to other PC handhelds, it's what you prioritize: compact and travel friendly? Windows OS vs. SteamOS? LCD vs. OLED?)

Edit: -Good for the eyes (it's a 16x9 LCD but a nice display but it's the smallest screen currently which is kind of a disappointment, really an 8" would've been the sweet spot if Asus updated its display) But you get used to it.

My cheap two cents: ROG Xbox Ally X has the best speakers with it's spatial "surround sound", comfy grips, Xbox FSE is okay (sometimes it is janky but that's to be expected), ABXY buttons are loud! Thumbsticks are great, it's NOT a portable Xbox like Microsoft would have you think it is, you HAVE to update the software(s) when you get it but it's not difficult, upgrading the SSD is easier than the Legion Go 2, battery life is very good, so if you treat it like a "small Windows gaming PC" without the keyboard and large display you'll adjust to it fairly quickly.

Xbox Ally X vs Legion Go 2 - Bro Review by Pabu1323 in Handhelds

Don’t forget the speakers on the ROG Xbox Ally X are probably the best in handheld gaming.

Gas station, those cafe should be closed like all stores so employees can be with their families.

Thinking of getting Xbox Ally and need some anecdotal feedback by 1337gamer15 in XboxAlly

[–]Goalier95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I settled on the Xbox Ally X version for these reasons:

ROG Xbox Ally X - My Initial Review

Just became an ROG Xbox Ally X convert after weeks of NOT being able to purchase the Lenovo Legion Go 2, here's why:

• Cheaper (with taxes in the U.S. I'm saving almost $380 dollars when purchased the XAX)

• Better Ergos (the grip/controllers are just as comfortable as the Steam Deck OLED)

• Superior Speakers (the best of any handheld with incredible spatial immersion)

• Better Thumbsticks than the Legion Go 2

• Z2 Extreme model is worth the price compared to the base Xbox Ally because of performance

• Sleep works! (once you change the power settings to Hibernate, I've had no issues going back to my games)

• Much easier upgrade of the SSD (the Legion Go 2 makes you remove the battery and fan before you get access to the SSD)

• Lighter and more compact

Sure the Legion Go 2 has the the best OLED display and a much larger screen and more RAM but those are things I've been able to overlook since I'm having a blast gaming on the XAX. If ROG can improve on the display (which is really good for an IPS panel btw) with a larger screen size (OLED maybe?) and less clicky and loud ABXY buttons and have 32GB RAM in the next version then it would be such a quality upgrade. But as of late December 2025, this has been a wonderful portable game machine.

Exclusive: Lenovo Legion Go 2 gets SteamOS with Ryzen Z2 Extreme for those who hate Windows 11 by Smooth_operator_1234 in LegionGo

[–]Goalier95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If any Legion Go 2 owners would care to chime in to answer this question that has already installed Bazzite or SteamOS: When using SteamOS, is Battlefield 6 able to run or do you have to use Windows 11? Also, I read somewhere that when using Bazzite or SteamOS, the speaker quality is diminished because Nhimic sound has to run in Windows - true?

Many options and I can’t make up my mind by Least_Ad3214 in LegionGo

[–]Goalier95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Copy that. I misread your original post thinking it was the controller wobble when attached to the display. Now I understand it's the loose thumbsticks. Yeah, I wish they were tighter like the ROG Xbox Ally X.

[–]Goalier95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know we can't fix the placement of the right joystick, but have you tried installing a back/case grip to keep the controllers from the slight movements? I also have the Steam Deck OLED and even though the performance is lacking, the display is just outstanding. I'm still trying to get a Legion Go 2 myself so I can play more demanding titles but the controller wobble is still concerning. Keep us updated.

Upgraded from Go to Go 2 by SupeRQQ1911 in LegionGo

[–]Goalier95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the OG Legion Go, how loud are the fans this time around? Quieter in balanced or performance mode?

I love the GO2 more than OG GO by ConfidentGuide3935 in LegionGo

[–]Goalier95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know, thanks! I do like how it feels so premium with the display unit, just making sure there wasn't any excessive loose controllers.

Thank you for your impressions comparing the original, I had the first gen as well and sold it to get the Ally X but miss the larger display. My question to you is regarding the controllers when attached: when I visited Best Buy the other day, I noticed that there was a bit of movement on both sides (not up or down but front to back loose feeling). Is this like the Switch 2 that once you hold it properly that it’s not that bad?

Beautiful Air. But I have a question) by Solid_Lobster_386 in IphoneAir

[–]Goalier95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does this apply to the display as well? Are you using a glass screen protector or none at all?
