Ever since the release of Valve’s Steam Deck in 2022, the PC handheld market has increased considerably. These days, there are more major players in the market and just recently, MSI also announced its arrival on the scene with the introduction of MSI Claw. Besides the Steam Deck and Lenovo Legion Go, there’s also Asus’s Rog Ally. In fact, the Rog Ally was the next major PC handheld to make its debut after the launch of Steam Deck. Unlike the Steam Deck, the Rog Ally is a much more powerful PC handheld, thanks to the Z1 Extreme processor. While a non-Extreme Rog Ally variant does exist, most prefer to go with the Z1 Extreme version. Although the Ally has a better processor and display than the Steam Deck, it does have some cons. For starters, there’s no trackpad and then there’s also an issue with Ally’s joysticks. Aside from all that, one of the major complaints some Ally users had with the handheld is the RGB lights. For some, it may look all cool and “gamer-y”, but for others, it’s nothing but a nuisance. And as such, this guide here will help you learn how to turn them off.
