Not bad but $700 is expensive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was a fun handheld, I enjoyed playing Baldurs gate 3 on it. Not so much cyberpunk 2077, the analog sticks felt weird in my opinion compared to a traditional controller. Had to return it because the battery malfunctioned and the device would not turn back on.

ROG Enemy For Your Wallet
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Totally not worth $700. The competition makes there product so simple and easily accessible. Changing to this for a slight performance is not worth it. There are many windows/os issues on here. A simple no experienced person would absolutely hate the experience and complexity of updates, bios updates, and refreshes of a glitchy device. There are many reviews that say “1080p vs 720p you can’t tell the difference on such a small screen” you are mistaken. If you play at 1080p and go to 720p you will notice the games look trashy. It’s something you don’t want to go back from. However when you do run 1080 most AAA games will have sub par performance that will not satisfy a fps/quality freak on graphics. The battery life is also terrible. Way lower then the promised/advertised 2 hours from Asus. Ill play Fifa 23 or MW2 and it will be close to dead by 40-50mins of play on 25 W.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention and I certainly understand your frustration. Make sure to set your device to Turbo mode.
