If you're shopping for a premium gaming handheld with specs that beat out both the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck, then you should check out this excellent Best Buy discount on the ultra-powerful Asus ROG Ally Z1 Extreme.

Right now, you can purchase the Asus ROG Ally Z1 Extreme for $100 less than its retail price at Best Buy. The US retailer currently has it listed at only $599.99 (was $699.99). It's not the first time this model has been discounted so; as we saw the same price drop applied during last year's Black Friday sales event.

The Asus ROG Ally Z1 Extreme is essentially an improved version of the already powerful handheld gaming device. It can display resolutions of up to 1080p and even has support for 120Hz refresh rates. The Z1 Extreme's beefier CPU offers much-improved performance, visual fidelity and load times. So know that you're getting a superior experience with the pricier model.
