Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Asus ROG Ally is great though it may not fit your needs. Pros - Windows 11 - Comfortable Design - Runs most games with no issues - Beautiful screen - Quality build - Good customization/power profiles Cons - Windows 11 - Very limited battery life - No good carry case available Meh - Asus launcher software - functional but could be better

Great for ppl with motion sickness. Expect to always be plugged in - esp for the extra performance boost, but it's an extremely powerful handheld - albeit with some quirks. No, its definitely not future proof, but for ppl who have nostalgia, or a huge list of games in their steam they have not touched/finished, this is great for that.

The specs of this thing made it sound really appealing but in practice it's not that great. I have to run games on low graphics settings and even then it barely reaches 60fps. It also gets hot if you play while charging even if you reduce the power output. I've measured up to 95°C. It's also not comfortable to hold. The grips are way too thin. I'm sure that part is better for the new xbox version that has extended grips. Overall I think this would be a decent $300 machine. I was lucky and got it on sale for $450 comspred to the normal $700 price, so I didn't overpay by too much but i still feel like it was too much for what it is

This unit is WONDERFUL! I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone using a handheld gaming device especially if you play PC games. I've played multiple AAA titles on this without falter. Destiny 2, Cyberpunk, Diablo IV, etc. Only complaint is the battery life outside of it's charging state. if you're gaming on the go, really bump down the intensity or else you're looking at a minimum duration of gaming.. like maybe 1 hour at higher wattage usage

Don’t recommend the official case since it won’t fit the charger with it. Abut great finds on Amazon. Also battery life is very low for high spec games. Great performance on high battery or plugged in but may be slow for really graphic titles. Great community support for game optimization.

It’s been pretty awesome having this all my friends and I have been playing hell divers too and fallout four on it. It is amazing. I’ve steam on it and I’m also able to play all of my Xbox titles on it. It is a fantastic portable gaming device and if you’re ever on the go or traveling, I definitely recommend it!

I love the ally x z1 it has became my main console since I’ve got it is highly recommend if you’re looking for a handheld pc console

This little machine is great! I love that i can play not only my ste games but my xbox games away from home without having to stream them or rely on a good internet connection. Feels good to hold and not to heavy. Only negative thing but is expected with these handhelds is the battery life. Its always smart to carry something around with you to charge it

I use this thing on a semi nightly basis. This thing does everything. A great bedside companion. Plays games well, just have a good power bank on you or an outlet and you'll be fine. Display is nice and it's way more portable than a laptop. Nice when it's paired with a monitor/TV and peripherals.

Its a great handheld . It performs well for majority of games i have tested but only flaws ill mention is the the thumbsticks , Feels like back in the old days of the ps3 controller very loose no tension on the sticks and also battery life not the best almost 1 hour but overall great handheld for those who have the money for it

Amazing handheld device , can run a lot of triple A games without a problem and the speakers sounds so good!

I was debating between this and the steam deck after doing some research I decided on the rog ally, and I’m not disappointed at all. Ease of use was insanely easy was able to import games (which was mainly the reason for the purchase ) for steam gog epic and Amazon with no problems. Couple that and the fact it is basically a decent handheld pc emulation was a breeze to set up. Another plus was the ease in which the storage can be upgraded (in my case from a 512 to a 2tb ssd). ASUS provides tool to not only make the process seamless but operation to optimize the rog ally are literally at your fingertips (it has a touchscreen). Definitely glad I purchased th rog ally especially since I got it on my Best Buy card 12 month no interest. If you are on the fence about whether or not to purchase a pc handheld the rog ally is a good way to go. Definitely consider buying a 100 w charger depending on the operation you are performing the battery will drain fast. Optimizing some settings (watched a couple of videos) help w the fast battery drain. All in all great purchase.

absolutely love it! everything that i expected but even more! its a little computer i can take everywhere.

I LOVE my ROG Ally!! It is a beast of a machine packed into a little frame. Only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the SD card slot on this thing does NOT work. It slows down the entire machine when you slot an SD card into it. As long as you’re cool just running off of system storage, you’ll love this thing.

Right now this is the most powerful windows gaming handheld on the market and can handle most AAA games with no problem. The battery life is pretty bad, if you are running turbo mode, you can see your battery % decrease by the second. You have to put in some work to get the things working but this is definitely worth it. Wish the internal storage was larger but from youtube videos, it looks like its pretty easy to upgrade yourself.

This is the perfect machine for Game Pass on the go! I've been using it on each of my frequent 6-hour flights, and it's been a breeze to use. Battery life is on the short side, so I got a chunky power bank to almost triple it when I cannot plug it. Also, keep in mind that this is a Windows machine, so the first setup is a bit cumbersome with a small screen and no mouse, but you'll only experience it once, hopefully!

Picked this up June 21st and I'm loving it so far. Plays most games in my Steam/Epic/GOG/Xbox libraries. Even newer AAA games that advertise requiring 32 gigs of RAM like Forspoken are able to be run at low settings for an enjoyable experience. Haven't tried emulation, but I'm told it handles PS3 and Switch emulation with ease. Great buy, frees up the TV screen so i can play my Game Pass games while my wife watches her shows.

great handheld device, can access every game you can think of, only downside is the battery life. it gets about 45 minutes from 100% to where it needs to be plugged in to use it.

This little gaming PC is a beast! I am not a PC user and have used MAC OS most of my life and to be honest, it’s frustrating to do all those PC updates. Don’t expect this thing to work like a plug and play thing because you will need to do LOTS of updates for it to function right. (For beginners reference) You’re gonna have to update the 1. System 2. AMD 3. Armory Crate I had to admit it, it was a pain in the butt but once you do all of it, you’re all set. (Just need to check for updates once in a while.) I own a Steam deck OLED, because I hate doing lots of tinkering and I LOVE my steam deck but now, I find myself picking this up more to play if I am at home or somewhere I could plug it because this thing eats up batter fast and that’s a disadvantage. If you’re a player who loves graphics, PICK THIS UP. You won’t regret it. Refresh rate is 120fps you’ll get that smooth fluid graphics you will never get from the steam deck. (Well, 60fps vs 120fps is incomparable) LIMITLESS GAMING library. After I did an SSD upgrade I LOVE this thing even MORE. This is perfect for PC users but if you hate lots of tinkering and updating, get a steam deck.
