Stubbs & Rob dive into reviewing Asus's latest x86 gaming handheld, the Xbox Ally X20, with its new 7.4" OLED display, along with various other upgrades we discuss. The new Ally is available for $1299 from Best Buy and ASUS (linked below). We received these review units from Asus ahead of release and have been testing them for a few weeks. Is the X20 the new X86 standard, beating out comparable handhelds, or simply a nice $300 upgrade from the tried-and-true, but aging Xbox Ally X? We also unbox and take a look at the new ROG Bulwark 6-in-1 Dock DG310.
