Rog ally good but not perfect
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. Not really a console experience more like a laptop with a controller attached. And it is running windows. But I have had no problems with mine. Not to say it’s a perfect product but it does what it’s advertised to do

Best of the 3
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Simply an awesome device. Slightly edges out the Legion Go and Steam Deck mostly because those have a portrait screen and no VRR. ASUS control interface (hardware settings) is super slick, no lag.

Not ready for launch.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Software is not ready, there are missing drivers that Asus doesn't seem to provide, you have to sit through 4 hours of updates and set-up before you can attempt to play anything, then you'll find a bug that requires a total reinstall of Windows. The set up experience is very very poor. The fan is not "silent" when running the device at a usable power profile. When reviewers called this device "light", I don't know what they were comparing it to.. I find it heavy and cumbersome to use. The SD card slot straight up does not work on my unit. I'd say most of the issues are software related, and until those are fixed (if), hold off on this one. I'm getting better game performance streaming games on a $299 Logitech G Cloud.

Excellent portable gaming pc
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a great little device. So far I've been having a good time playing my games on it. It wasn't difficult to get started either. After going through the windows setup and logging into steam I was downloading games right away.

||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly much better than a steam deck. Pick this up as a mini computer. Use it as an emulator. Use it for steam. Use it for pdfs. Use it for managing your home network. It is great. Just get one already.
