Sorry if this has already been asked. I tried to do a search, but it's a bit harder to figure out how to focus the search on Lemmy. Anyway, I want to buy one of these shells as a present for my wife, but I want to make sure they're worth it. Does anyone have any personal experience with them? I haven't been able to find much in the way of reviews on them so far. Thanks!

Honestly after seeing how much the 1080p screen hurts performance on the ROG Ally, I've decided I'm very happy with the 800p screen on the deck. I might be able to get some benefit rendering at 800p and upscaling with FSR, but 720p looks pretty great at this size imo.

Oh for sure. I'd have to upscale instead of actually use 1200p, but the colors are supposed to be better so It'd be a nice upgrade for me

Yeah, I didn't even know that screen was a thing until now. Gonna have to keep an eye on that...
