The Ally and Ally X are very different products, but yes.....Asus is scum.

Different how? No difference in that the same scummy company sells them both.

Original Ally has a lot of design flaws, like the SD card being cooked to death, that were fixed in the X.

However, it's still Asus.

Ah, well its fairly new, I'm sure we'll find others.

Given that it took Asus months to even acknowledge the SD card issues on the original Ally, they don’t hold very much goodwill imo
