You will need a warranty
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for my son with complete knowledge of some of the build quality issues around heat. This is his first gaming handheld so I made sure I got the extra warranty. Overall it’s not a bad handheld, good price, plays all types of games (low to mid settings), the battery life could be improved. I ended up returning it after the sad card reader burned out and the battery died. It stopped turned on about 8 weeks after I bought it. I ended up using the money to get one of the Xbox ally

Great when it works
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.An amazing device, I could play any game from any launcher and it was gorgeous. However, the display stopped working and I fear the RMA process. The device is only worth the gamble if you don’t mind the price. Pros: lightweight, ergonomic, highest-class performance Cons: drains battery, could fry SD cards, unfixable when design flaws show up (and replacements aren’t guaranteed to be better)

I Returned the Legion Go for This
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought a Legion Go and returned it to buy this. Main reasons I prefer this over the Legion Go/Steam Deck: Runs Windows (vs Steam Deck) 16:9 resolution (vs Legion Go) Button layout (vs Legion Go) Much lighter (vs Legion Go) The Legion go had some significant problems running some games because of the odd resolution. The screen is nicer, but that doesn't matter when it can't play the entire library. The games that did run well had control issues because of the strange button layout.

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s perfect just perfect it has some of the best performance it’s definitely better than the steam deck Is it worth $700 it’s complicated because you are getting 2x the performance and a better screen so for me it’s worth every penny.

Great quality and performance
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Performs very well, nice to not have to check compatibility …can play all my PC games. Feels more solid than switch (probably due to lack of detachable joycons). 512GB isn’t much, so I immediately upgraded to 2TB SSD and 1TB micro SD.

Great if you know what to expect.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are computer savvy and know what you're getting into this is a pretty solid device. Preforms games well but it gets hot. Really warm. Design was done well and I question some of the layouts. Windows is a weakness and a strength. If you know how to navigate a PC you'll enjoy tinkering to get things working. If you want something that just picks up and plays, get a Steam Deck or a Nintendo Switch. Also, don't buy a MicroSD card. It will fail from whatever reason. It's the main reason there are so many returns of the ROG Ally. ASUS needs to do a recall and fix it.
