Microsoft has confirmed release date and availability details for the ROG Xbox Ally X, its upcoming gaming handheld made by Asus, but notably held off on confirming how much the device will cost.

    It’s not a Microsoft product. It’s an Asus product with a bit of Xbox sponsorship.

      That’s almost worse, Asus also makes a lot of garbage.

        Whether or not it’s better wasn’t the question. The claim was that Microsoft was launching the product and being in charge of defining the price. They aren’t because it’s an Asus product with Xbox branding, just like https://www.8bitdo.com/ultimate-3-mode-controller-xbox/ is a regular 8bitdo controller with Xbox branding and not a Microsoft product.

        That’s all.

          That wasn’t the claim from the comment you replied to. It was about Microsoft botching a launch and making the product worse over time which Asus is just as guilty of doing.

            And Microsoft isn’t launching the product because it’s not a Microsoft product.

      Asus … Well that’s half the problem right there. The other half being Microsoft
