In this segment, the video covers several major updates in the tech world. Firstly, a new handheld device based on the Ayn Loki is being launched in Brazil by a company called Xenex, with models named Loki Zero and Loki. These come with different AMD processors and seem exclusive to the Brazilian market for now. The video also discusses various driver updates: new AMD drivers (24.6.1) support new games and add enhancements for titles like Overwatch 2 and Counter Strike 2, while Intel’s new drivers (referred to as 5762) bring improvements for games like Diablo 4 and support for Once Human and Zenist Zone Zero.

In this part of the video, the presenter discusses a significant update to Lenovo’s Legion space, which features a completely overhauled user interface (UI). The update includes new navigation tabs at the top such as My Store, Library, Settings, and Controllers, and different tabs at the bottom for performance, display, audio, drives, and general settings. Key functionalities highlighted include button mapping, joystick and trigger settings, resolution and brightness adjustments, speaker and mic volume control, and driver updates. The presenter also mentions an updated overlay that mirrors the main app’s settings, except for driver updates. Feedback on the update is encouraged in the comments.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses key updates and differences between the Rog Ally and the new Ally X. They highlight that the Ally X has a significantly increased battery capacity, improved RAM speed and capacity, and enhanced joysticks using a new module. The device also features better heat dissipation, a larger SSD size (2280 instead of 2230), a black color, slightly increased weight, and a larger grip for better comfort. The speaker also addresses several community questions from an Asus Q&A session: the joysticks are not hall effect, but third-party hall effect joysticks may be supported; parts are generally not interchangeable between the Rog Ally and Ally X; and a 2230 size SSD would still work in the Ally X.

In this part of the video, the discussion focuses on the compatibility and upgrades for the Rog Ally, particularly emphasizing the SSD and SD card reader. It mentions that the port is compatible for an adapter to clone an SSD, though the process isn’t just plug-and-play; cloning or cloud recovery would still be required. The TDP will remain the same despite improved heat dissipation. The SD card reader has been a prevalent issue, and after several board revisions, a new board expected around August aims to fix this issue. The RMA period for the SD card reader has been extended to two years. Additionally, the speakers and heat dissipation in the Ally X have been improved with thicker heat sinks and smaller, more efficient fans. The segment ends with a call to viewers to discuss whether the Ally X is a worthwhile upgrade and transitions to updates on MSI and a new accessory from Ugreen, a 2-in-1 Qi2 magnetic charging station for iPhones and earpods.
