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

With the exception of the newer Ally "X," this is still the best PC/Windows based handheld out there right now in terms of ease of use, screen quality, and performance.

Really good at what it did ran flawlessly, only used in handheld In low power mode ran most campaign games just fine only when demanding higher visuals did you really have to crank up the mode only flaw for me was the short battery life. The things is a beast

I think its a perfect size. Not to bulky easy to hold even when laying down. Simple as using a pc. Highly recommend.

I love my ally and I don’t see what the problem is. I know a lot of people complained about the performance but for the average consumer it works perfectly fine for me. I have no issues playing Spider-Man or assassins creed odyssey. Yes it’s battery life isn’t that great but that’s why we have battery banks. Overall happy with my purchase

Pretty fun to use when you are bored of being on the pc or console, can run most games very well. If you got a pc you can stream your game to it so you can preserve the high fps with none of the being in a chair or at a desk to play.

I recommend this over the steam deck as I have had no issue with it. Runs eso without needing false drivers. I only got rid of it to upgrade to the ally x. My neice has my old device and loves it.

Considering between Steam Deck and ROG Ally, I ended up buying this. The machine is amazing. It can even play some demanding games really well. Only downside is the battery life. 1~2 hours is maximum time it will give you. However, I mostly play from home and no more than 2 hour so doesn't bother me.

My review of the Asus Rog ally. I genuinely enjoy using it for gaming. The storage of only 512gb had me a bit worried due to my extensive library across Steam, Ubisoft +, Epic, and xbox game pass but the m.2 is upgradeable to a 2tb M.2 nvme which comes in clutch and you can also add a micro sd card for expandable storage. The resolution of the screen Full 1080P with a 120hz refresh rate is absolutely amazing. I tested it our playing Marvel's Spiderman and Sony's Day Gone and I was truly impressed. The Asus Rog ally comes with 16gb ram so it's able to handle majority of triple A titles, and you're able to multi task. If you're willing to purchase a dock which there many available on Amazon from various manufacturers then you'll be able to connect the steam deck to a monitor and or tv screen for larger screen options, and you're able to connect various accessories to the dock such as external storage options, keyboard, mouse, controllers, etc. You have access to windows and the windows stores for various applications, this beauty is literally a handheld pc. Worth the buy in my opion.

Besides all of the SD cards failure to read and pour battery life it's a pretty beefy machine worth the 500 that I paid. Also the memory expansion price is ridiculous will not be upgrading anytime soon for 1/3 of the price of the unit

I bought this for my fiancée's birthday. Incredible that just because it was used the price went down by several hundred dollars. I will say the product itself is prone to overheating so I would replace the backplate.

I have played 20+ games on the ROG Ally so far all at 1080p 120hz with high and low settings advertising around 60 FPS. The quality and screen of this device is amazing. Yes there are some flaws but can all be addressed with software updates based on my experience as a software engineer. Very happy with this purchase and excited to see what they do with it!

Did some research and know the “known” problems but so far it’s been great, plays all the games I want and very portable. That being said wish the battery life was a bit better but for the size and power of the device it’s fine

I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of gameplay on larger and demanding titles like Lies of P but it seems like while they excel in gameplay they lack a little quality hardware. I had my device for 2 weeks before I had to send it in for repair due to the thumb stick being broken and locked the cursor dragging left making it useless for gaming. I bought it because even though I have an up-to-date PC I miss the casualness of a console and this very much hit the spot and would be terrific for travel, even though the battery life is terrible. I am looking forward to getting it back and would not discourage buyers but suggest a reasonable comparison between the options available, steam deck, claw and whatever might come next to see if it would be a better fit.

Gorgeous, silky smooth screen. Runs OW2 at 120fps with FSR 2.2 upscaling 720p to 1080p at medium settings. I got the official dock along with a razer blackwidow wireless M&K to take advantage of the unified usb dongle. No regrets! Takes a little tinkering to max out FPS in certain games but runs like a champ, especially in turbo mode plugged in.

Decent system, comes with 512 gb that fills up quickly. Already opened it up to put in a 2 tb 2230 NVMe. To get the best out of the games, you need to have it plugged in to get the 30 w turbo mode, and then with some games it seems quite glitchy. The community is great tho. Lots of people share their best setting to help some games run smoother, but still cant get spiderman to swing without the screen lagging. It will run more games than the steamdeck, have yet to find one that wont start. Downloaded Epic games, battlenet, steam (of course), and they have xbox features on it as well. Just make sure you research the best settings and apps that are on board that slow things down and you should be fine.

I'm a huge fan of this thing. It has the specs to handle all the xbox gamepass, epic games, and steam games that I've thrown at it. I haven't played my steam deck or switch very much since i got it. The biggest downside is the battery life. You have to keep a battery pack close by if you want to play more than a couple hours at a time untethered.

Fantastic device. Handles everything I've thrown at it like a champ. Amazing speakers, crisp screen, solid build quality. The only issue was wobbly analog sticks, but I looked up a fix online and fixed it easily. Overall a great deal considering I also got it at the open-box price, and it was basically brand new.

So it's a very good machine. It is a portable PC and it played all my Epic games and Xbox Cloud games. It gets really hot. It wiped out my microSD card because of how hot it was running. Can't wait to see the next version.

If youre looking for just that, a handheld PC. The rog ally is perfect for a pc on the go. I plug in at work and it runs games great. If youre looking for more of a streamlined console handheld and not great with windows. id go with something else like a steamdeck. But the Ally is powerful and will run any game.
