Tech it Out is at Gamescom! We get our hands on the upcoming ROG Xbox Ally handheld PC

Update: 2025-08-22

Description

Greetings from Cologne, Germany! To learn all about the ASUS and Xbox partnership, I’m joined by Sascha Krohn, Director of Technical Marketing at ASUS and ROG. Unveiled at Gamescon, this handheld gaming PCV is wild.
Speaking of PCs, there are deals to be had over Inter Gamer Days, from August 25th through September 7th, on select Intel-powered gaming laptops and desktops -- as you’ll hear from Intel’s Samy Saif.
But we first kickstart a brand-new Tech It Out, to get the 4-1-1 on Brane Audio and its portable Brane X speaker and its integrated subwoofer. We’re joined by Joe Pinkerton, Co-Founder & CEO of Brane Audio
Thank you to Visa and Sandisk for your support!
