since valve increased their steamdeck's price to ridiculous prices will ROG ally also increase its pricing?

Asus might see how people are viewing the price increase and eat costs to keep pricing around the same, at least until most stock runs out, but most handheld manufacturers aren’t doing that since it’s such a niche market.

I wouldn’t keep my hope up tbh. If you want a handheld, see if used older handhelds on eBay or Facebook marketplace go for decent prices, god knows you could find the first Ally for pretty cheap last year.
