Asus announced the Xbox Ally X20 with an OLED screen addressing long-standing complaints about the original handheld's cramped display and accidental button presses.
The new OLED Xbox Ally X features a larger screen with reduced bezel, directly responding to user feedback about the original model's claustrophobic gaming experience.
Asan also redesigned the interface to eliminate the problematic "Library" button that frequently interrupted gameplay on the previous generation. The involuntary exits to the Xbox library without easy navigation back have plagued users since the original device's launch.
The Xbox Ally X20 maintains compatibility with the existing Game Pass ecosystem while incorporating the display improvements gamers have requested. The OLED panel delivers enhanced color accuracy and contrast compared to the standard LCD screen on earlier versions.
The announcement includes companion glasses that users can purchase separately, expanding the handheld's functionality beyond traditional portable gaming.
Pricing and availability details are expected to follow.
