Customer Ratings & Reviews

This thing is a beast when your playing a game at 120 frames, 1080p display, medium to high settings, it the mobile market this is unmatched. I for one did not mind the windows 11 bc armored crate works good. The biggest problem is that you can only play for 30-40 minutes while using the power the rog ally provides. Sure you can be plugged in but then might as well play your pc or console instead and if i have to drop the settings fown i preffer to play my steamdeck which configures stuff for you and 100% feels like a mobile console.

Great product! I initially got this because I don’t have the time commitment to buy and use a full gaming PC. This was a great alternative, and it’s easy to use on the go. Although it runs windows 11 so the random pop ups do get annoying.

I have both a deck and this device and though the deck is better at a lot of things this devices screen and power make it great for things that won't or dont run well on the deck. The down side is that the deck was built around its os and this is running windows 11 and itis really its bigest down fall.

You need to have a good understanding of how to use and troubleshoot Windows 11, but this thing is a beast for techies. Be prepared to do all the updates out of the box. Patience pays off as this thing is an amazing PC gaming device and a huge upgrade over other handhelds like the steam deck. It wont disappoint.

You will see positive and negative reviews on this item. But coming from over 30 hours of game play on it I can tell you I’m my opinion this thing is amazing. Plays titles live call of duty madden rust with ease. No hassle to setup either and no hoops to go through to try to get stuff to play like on steam deck

Perfect for me. I can see someone who is not familiar with Windows 11 having issues setting up or dialing in. But for me, i have no issues getting into the weeds with Windows 11 and Armory Crate. In the end, I love the product and how it performs.

This is not a steam deck. This is a full windows pc, so setup isn’t as easy as a steam deck but the capability is far greater. Plug it into a dock and you have a mobile gaming handheld that can do all of your normal pc task

For most, there are a few things you need to learn to get a handle of this device. Though when you do, this machine is capable of whatever you want. I hope ROG keeps at it with updates and hope more people hope on the PC handheld train!

Amazing device!! Exceeded all expectations. The only gripe I have is the sd card reader. I really hope mine doesn’t fry my card. Gets very hot in that area, would recommend ssd upgrade over using sd cards!

Really enjoying this device. Plays AAA games without a hitch when you tweak the settings and set your TDP manually. Have had a few issues - mostly windows related - but youtube helped me clear those up and find an 18W TDP that is a good compromise of performance and battery. Overall a win in my book.

Plays well and satisfies my local low level gaming.

I love this thing. I travel alot and the ability to take this in my backpack and have a system in my hotel room is awesome. I take the power plug that also uses a hdmi cable to plug into the TV to use it as a mobile console.

It’s a good handled device, it’ can handle triple a games on a medium settings but in my opinion the screen is a bit small

Absolutely amazing. Pretty much runs everything I throw at it at 1080p 60+ fps with some tweaking. Been playing red dead redemption 2 and FF7 remake for a second run and it’s been absolutely epic to play on a handheld. Completely new experience.

ROG Ally is indeed, my ALLY! This blows the Steam Deck out of the water with it's ease of being able to play any video game that can be played on PC. No learning curve if you're familiar with PC gaming. Use this every week while traveling and it's the best thing I've purchased!

The software is not the most user friendly, especially if you're a life-long console player, but I think this area will improve as users become more educated and as Asus continues updating. The analog sticks are looser than I like, but I've already gotten used to it. I'm happy with all other controls and like circular d-pads in general. I don't write reviews, but the #1 reason why I wanted to write this one is because I have rarely owned a handheld where I didn't need a grip. This is one of the most comfortable out-of-box hardware designs I've ever experienced, and I have lots of classic and modern handhelds. The neo geo pocket might be on this level, but no mainstream modern handheld compares. At first glance, it looks like the sharp edges may cut into your palm, but it looks much sharper than it feels (hard to explain).

Quite a nifty gadget, I bought it on a whim after seeing some mixed reviews between steam deck and this, the Ally as far as I'm concerned it does everything I could ever want it to as it is a powerhouse of a handheld computer.

I was torn between the Ally and the Steam deck. I'm glad I chose the Ally. It's amazing and so fun to game on and tinker with. It's a full on windows 11 pc in your hand that can play any AAA title with ease. Next upgrade will be a larger SSD and a better travel case. I'm not a huge fan of the official Rog one.

Amazing portable PC/gaming system. I own the steam deck and this system is miles and miles above it. The screen looks so much better 30 watt tdp allows me to play recent AAA games on it. I will be selling my steam deck shortly. The only thing is typical widows issues but you get used to them fast.

was a great device actually pretty impressive that a handheld would work so good like this !
