Xbox Ally Handheld: Price Rumors Indicate It Could Be Expensive
Microsoft and Asus are planning a new handheld gaming device, the ROG Xbox Ally.
However, it might be quite expensive!
Rumors say it could cost around $700 in the US.
In India, it could be even more, possibly costing the same as a PlayStation 5 console.
This high price could make it hard for people to choose the Xbox Ally over the PlayStation, which has lots of games available.
Some experts think the price could hurt sales, as people may prefer a more affordable gaming option.
Rumors suggest the upcoming ROG Xbox Ally handheld console could be priced higher than expected.
The European price is rumored to be EUR 599, translating to around $700 USD.
Indian pricing is estimated at Rs 57,000 for the Xbox Ally and Rs 87,000 for the Xbox Ally X.
The high price point puts the Xbox Ally in direct competition with the PlayStation 5.
Some analysts believe the high cost could be a major hurdle for sales.
