    It’s a good device especially for triple A titles. The only caveat is that unless you’re comfortable with troubleshooting on windows I would would not recommend it. It is a great device for emulation and could be a stand alone pc if you dock it to a monitor. The only other thing I disliked was sometimes having to switch the controller mode on certain games. It would also be nice to have a force quit button on the amroury crate to exit out of games faster.

    Only downside is its battery doesn't last long while playing AAA games, and it could use a 1 TB SSD. I use it both docked with a controller and on the go and I love it!

    Works perfectly and runs games no issues, can run heavier games too. Only downside is that the controls were a bit weird to map out for me but I’m using it on a dock anyways.

    Bought this to take with me to my doctor appointments and pass time. I have only out diablo 4 on it and it looks and run’s beautifully. I would advise setting a controller up to make it easier to control

    Beautiful handheld Windows 11 game PC. Although some have reported issues, I have had none so far with mine. Installed several games and it plays them all well. Beautiful screen resolution and brightness!

    Ok, not going to lie, getting set up is a drag. But once you get past that, this thing is a beast. Would recommend as long as you understand that this is not a console like experience where you just plug and play.

    Purchased this ally for my neice, and she loves it, no issues. My Ally, on the other hand, has a fried sd card reader and speaker issues. So YMMV.

    Its very good. It gets about 2x steam deck performance, and runs great at around 20 watts. I rarely use turbo mode. If you have used a windows pc, you will be fine. Im surprised by people saying setup was hard.

    It works well, eats battery, and has a small blemish on the speaker grill. I'd give it 5 stars if it did a better job automatically managing power modes.

    Best gaming handheld I have had. Only problem is battery life. The handheld has 3 settings and the lower settings can help you save battery but the most recent games requires that you play on higher settings.
