Leaks Reveal Asus ROG Ally 2 with AMD Z2 Extreme CPU and 64GB RAM — Black Model Includes Dedicated Xbox Button

Sure, let’s see what kind of human mess I can make of it.

So, yeah—imagine that late-night snack craving, but it’s Microsoft with a handheld device. Finally, after… I dunno, ages? The whispers around Project Kennan are shaping into something real-like with this new ROG Ally 2 vibe from Asus. I stumbled on some chatter from 91mobiles and some user at X—yeah, that’s a name, not just the letter—saying Asus is cooking up two flavors: a black version flaunting an Xbox button like it’s prom night, and a simpler white one… you know, for the rest of us who just want to play some games.

For eons, Project Kennan has been in the air, like an unsolved mystery. These leaks, though, finally sprinkle some reality into the mix. Once someone got hold of these model numbers, bam—straight to the FCC listings. Déjà vu, right? It’s like ROG Ally did a costume change with a $100 ticket to the fancier model. Yes, the x86 thing sticks around, probably to make friends with old software and games or something.

That Xbox button—it practically screams “Kennan!” But, let’s not kid ourselves; it’ll probably run regular ol’ Windows 11. Nothing too out of the box there. Maybe some cool Game Bar tricks? Guess we’ll see when Microsoft drops more official deets.

Okay, deep breath—tech specs are… intense. Apparently, under Kennan’s hood, we’ve got AMD’s Ryzen Z2 Extreme chip—8 cores, 16 threads, if numbers excite you. My brain says it’s related to Ryzen AI 7 Pro 360, but with extra juice? Or is it just Sunday afternoon caffeine talking? Either way, it has a 16 Compute Unit iGPU, some TDP jargon, and what’s this—64GB of LPDDR5x-8533 memory. I’m not an encyclopedia, but that seems fast. Don’t even get me started on the 2TB SSD and 100W charge—pretty sure my phone’s embarrassed now. And a 7-inch touch screen? Sweet.

Now, the less flashy sibling, white edition, boasts some mysterious APU with a secretive “100-000001835” code. Comes with 16GB RAM and that same screen razzle-dazzle. I heard whispers it’s got an “Aerith Plus” APU—next-gen or just… different? Beats me.

Asus/AMD might spill more beans at Computex. Or not. Who knows what happens at those fancy tech parties?
