Customer Ratings & Reviews

Took a while to get everything set up but after that it ran all my games smoothly. Happy with my purchase

Was initially looking into a steam deck but with the outrageous prices of them I went with the ROG Ally and couldn’t have been happier! Pretty much a handheld gaming PC. Battery life is a bit of a bummer but overall highly recommend this device!

Every game I have played has ran amazing the only down side is the battery and memory

Performance is pretty good. I've been running any game I've wanted on medium for modern titles and higher with older ones. Only compaints are the limited storage space and battery life. To get the best performance it needs to be plugged in.

It's a great device considering its size and it runs games well, but don't expect it to run every game; it will run most of them. So, as a portable device, I can say it's excellent. My advice to you guys is, if you have a small budget, invest in the X version because the RAM in this device isn't the best.

Amazing product, I'm writing this review extremely late (1 year late) but it just works it's has been my main gaming device since I bought and I don't regret it. Powerful, Slick and easy to use

Great platform. Pairing with a dock and adding a wireless keyboard/mouse, the device performs great. My only gripe is that it not only gets really warm(offset this with a dock with fan) and it’s vulnerable to malware/viruses. Aside from that, it is an awesome machine.

It's a good product to use on the go, with the capability of having your games that you own to play without internet. There is a issue that it has not enough storage, but it does has a micro sd card for more storage and it can accept external storage.

AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor and 512GB storage offers a fantastic combination of great performance, portability, and stunning graphics. It's a machine that caters to both gamers and power users who need a versatile and travel-friendly machine without compromising on power and display quality.

Great device for normal gaming but for fps gaming isn’t great on it overall experience is great for travel and its very versatile to hook to a monitor and keyboard and mouse or controller I would say it’s worth it if you don’t mind the lower settings for fps gaming and if you don’t want to carry a heavy laptop.

Powerful hardware. Great screen. Can play wide variety of games. Limited battery life

You don't need an Asus Ally, but if you buy one you'll likely be happy you did. This assumes you have some money, and every PC gamer probably needs some of the green stuff. I enjoyed playing Diablo 4 on my new Ally, and was happy to see POE boot right up in controller mode. Similar also for Don't Starve Together. Windows may have you using the touch screen some, and I haven't tried the free Bluestacks Android experience, but if you need it, it's there too. This is the begging of a new segment that I do think will have some staying power. You should expect games will run at 24-60 fps, and not at 90 or 120. You'll also likely only get around an hour and a half of battery power based play. However, the 45 watt charger will refill the battery quick, and all ports are on the top of the deck and out of the way if you want to plug in and run in turbo mode. Charger is USB-C, so you'll want to use Bluetooth or an audio cable if you need a headset and to charge at the same time. Screen is nice and bright. Vents are well designed to keep any heat off your hands, and speakers are similarly well placed and sound good, if you are using without headphones. Rumble is also a nice touch. Expect this to do anything a value gaming laptop can do. Price is fair, and is comparable or better than similarly configured current and coming competition. Buy this device if you're a PC gamer who wants to play on the go, with or without an Internet connection.

Is an amazing handheld PC. The initial setup is a little timely and frustrating, but this is a windows device. The screen is the greatest part of this handheld. The battery is the worst.

The ASUS ROG ALLY is quite literally the best bang for your buck handheld, by far. I picked up a 2TB m.2 to swap the original 512GB and was quite impressed at how simple and straightforward the installation of the drive was. Alao, the reinstallation of the operating system was very simple and straightforward as well. Man, I primarily use it for retro gaming but works well with my XBOX Game pass. I can't stop talking about this device. I highly recommend this to anyone.

Basically plays whatever you want at at least 30fps nifty device. Speakers are nice and it's not uncomfortable to hold after a couple hours Not a fan of the d pad and joysticks aren't stiff which isn't necessarily bad but i prefer the feeling of something like ps3 joysticks, these feel loose in comparison.

Great product! There are a few bugs here and there but I see its potential use as a desktop alternative. battery life leaves more to be desired but with what it is capable of I don't see it as being lacking per se. There is definitely a need to remedy some bugs but the fixes are easy to find online.

This Ally is incredible. It is literally a PC in my hand. I've played games on it that run less than great on a laptop and it was smooth as butter. My only complaint is that it could use a little more battery life, bit it's not a terrible thing. It lasted approximately 2 hrs running a game in performance mode before it hit 10%. All in all, it's well worth the purchase.

Good handheld pc could use more storage but great pc overall.you can run heavily modded games easily..would recommend

Some minor issues but those can easily be overlooked after seeing what this device can do. Would recommend

After testing with this product I will give it an excellent not only on what it can do currently, but also the potential it has. I like the different TDP levels of this so you can have more control of your gaming experience. The software at first was a bit glitchy but with a few updates, a lot of that has been corrected. I am still afraid to place an SD card in the system due to the multiple reports of heat issues. I was quite surprised with the Armory Crate software and how easily it picks up newly installed games and ease of use with starting games and setting individual gaming profiles. the added options while in a gaming session is also a welcomed addition giving you the options of TDP, screen resolution, LED brightness and much more! While still in early stages, the ROG ally still performs with best of its class. We must remember that the steam deck had its troubles early on as well. I am confident that further updates will solve more software problems and squeeze more performance out of this thing. I was able to test this not only with the ROG travel dock but also the ROG XG Mobile (highly recommend buying XG Mobile directly from ASUS for best price). the travel dock is amazing but if you want that top performance, the XG mobile is the way to go for a proper gaming desk setup. the value of it also being $700 isn't bad either
