Perfecting the ASUS ROG Ally X

I have a confession to make: I have been using the ASUS ROG Ally X way more than my Steam Deck over the past few months. Let’s talk about all the little things I’ve done to improve the Ally X experience, and how a $23 piece of plastic was what pushed me over the edge.
