Powerhouse packed punch
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Initial setup is BAD. Keep in mind the the armoury gateway app and this product are new. After setup headaches aside, it is amazing to witness the fluid screeen and high perfomance this little wonder deilvers

Good handheld with some nigs
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wanted a portable hand held computer to play games and figured they this. Takes a why'll to setup because of lots updates. There's some glitches I'm it and have to be patient with some games to load. But overall very happy with it. Lots videos on how to twerk it and get beat out of it. Still lots to learn but if you want something to play games why'll away from computer or console I recommend this device. Hope on time gets to work as good as my consoles

Works well, trouble with accessories at times
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well, but has some issues with using a controller, hasnt worked the past few months for mine, and also has trouble showing up on certain TVs when you use the HDMI adapter. So good for what it is, but can also be fickle and you don't really have a clue why

Goodbye steam deck, you were loved.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Prior steam deck owner. Currently listing the steam deckok ebay. This thing is so versatile. Pair it with an xg mobile and it can be a main machine, plays vr, can do productivity work, and can obviously do handheld gaming. Speakers are loud and clear. Display is fantastic, though i wish it had oled because i love oled. Some folks complain about windows being clunky with touchscreen, this is true, however you can use steam big picture mode or playnite in fullscreen to launch games just fine. Definitely worth checking out. Oh and if white isnt your jam, just skin it. I got a camo skin on mine from m2skins. Last minor gripe, only one usb c port. Would have liked to see at least a usb a as well.

Asus Rog Ally
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its been a complete game changer. Being able to play current titles anywhere i go, it was worth every dime. From taking it on flights to playing Diablo 4 while on work trip. Absolutely recommend.

Really good handheld!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It could be so much better. I’m giving a 4 because overall it is a good handheld overall and I like it over the steam deck. But it is buggy at times I have to reload games a couple times for them to actually load. Sound profile is good for a handheld device. And games look really good. I’m hoping they work out some of the bugs cause it is really a great handheld. And for the price it is a competitor to a lot of the windows based handhelds out there!! I am very satisfied with the Ally I upgraded the nvme and added an SD card and they do work flawlessly!

milestone for handheld
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Build quality is great, remind me of original Game Boy. It's very comfortable, performance is amazing, very quiet, for this price no competitor at all.

Surprised me
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very compact but yet powerful machine. can pretty much run any game you throw at it. Battery life is not the best so expect about ~1 hour of gameplay.

Has initial setup, but great overall
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hey, look, its a PC. If you dont know how to download updates before you start trying to play games, then dont buy this then whine about it later. If you dont mind doing some updating installation and configuration, and your PC games library is not mostly on Steam, then this is probably what youre looking for. It plays Gamepass and other systems including Steam natively. The reviews are true about battery life. Its not great. I play plugged in most of the time so its not an issue for me. Expect an hour to 2 hours of battery life. Great system overall though!

Way to go ASUS
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome PC on the go. I bought it for my son's birthday and he absolutely loves it. It's perfect for gamers on the go but only downside is the battery doesnt last that long if he plays on it continuously.

Great open box buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got it open box. Great condition. Only giving it four stars based on the actual software. But you know what you’re getting with a windows device not truly made for mobile gaming. Lots of tinkering when you just wanna plop down and game at the most opportune moments when you don’t have much time. Aside from that you have access to all launchers as well as game pass, big time pluses to not be locked into the Steam store always.

Revolutionary Gaming Device
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Once you realize what the device actually is and how to properly use it to its advantages, it is awesome and something gamer have dreamed of for decades. Paired with GamePass, you can take entire game titles offline and play them whenever, wherever you want. Hooked up to a monitor and keyboard/mouse and you have a small yet capable desktop. I would recommend trying one out to see how much it can do.
