Customer Ratings & Reviews

Ally is very competitive gaming device with very good gaming capabilities. The storage should have been 1 Tb or higer as 512 GB gets filled up with just 5 to 6 gamesh.

I absolutely love my ally. It plays all my games beautifully. I have had some issues with it running hot, or sometimes the controlls glitching. Other than that it is an amazing device, I just wish the HDMI port was included instead of having to buy it separately.

Awesome handheld for that gaming session that cant wait while nature calls. Unplug, take it with you, finish that dungeon, wipe and done! Good specs for a few bucks less that other Windows handhelds while being a few bucks more than that OtherOS handheld gaming device.

Overall great device Asus finally stepped up and the latest updates make this thing great. Definitely factor in the SD issue problem though because I believe it is hardware related.

Needed a PC for the house and also wanted a gaming handheld. Works amazing. Graphics are awesome. Only negative battery life.

I bought my rog ally z1 extreme used in good condition and i could swear that it was brand new. The portability and power make for a great combo. The speakers have great range and volume also.

Best handheld in the market right now. I like how the rog ally preforms and how a powerful it’s but the only down fall is the battery life. But it’s still my favorite device so for when it come to a portable gaming device.

The beauty of a steam deck is that it just works. The Ally, being based around a Windows OS, means that day to day use comes with more bugs and quirks, but overall its worth the added effort to have the flexibility. The extra processor power with rhe extreme chip doesn't just feel like an upgrade, it's borderline required for a good experience. I wouldn't recommend going with the slower processor, even if it costs you battery life. When it's working well the ROG Armoury is a fine games launcher, but sometimes it's easier to just open Steam or Epic. Where the system loses points for me is the mechanics of using Windows. The touchscreen is a saving grace of the system as it the windows experience does not translate to joysticks. If Asus could reslly focus on getting this part of the system right, it would be the clear best gaming handheld. But it's still worth the hassle.

This device is everything I dreamed of in terms of a portable machine that plays my favorite games. I use PC Gamepass so I have access to so many games and this device is able to play them in very high fidelity.

I really enjoy everything so far about the Ally. It’s doing everything I wanted it for. It runs Fallen Order and Baldur’s Gate at a playable FPS. Only thing to bare in mind is the battery life could be better, but that’s about it

It is a very good device. Great for playing pc games or really any kind of game on the go

The gaming experience is good, while the unit works. The screen is phenominal, and the unit performs well. The control scheme is a pain and armoury crate frequently has issues changing controller schemes. The sd card reader will go out on you eventually, and the unit is plagued with power issues. My unit lasted around 20 days before it refused to recognize any charger and power up. The RMA process is the worst I have experienced from a tech company so far, and I have dealt with just about all of them.

Arrived just in time. Screen looks amazing, great performance and easy to use. I loved this devices, but it had a sticky X button that was getting stuck all the time. Besides that everything worked well.

Its amazing how the Ally has the gaming chops of much larger gaming built PC's but in a portable form. I've been playing Starfield and Cyberpunk and they both look and play great.

Most of the issues you can see them on YouTube. I love the device since I travel for a living but wish the battery lasted longer. Since I upgraded the SSD to a 2TB there’s no need for the SD Card reader but mine failed and now trying to get some support from ASUS.

Awesome device, love the screen resolution and quality. Would def recommend if you have a steam deck this one is a must try. Just don’t expect great battery life. Keep it plugged of bring a decen battery bank and you will be good to go.

Would be a full 5 stars if the battery lasted longer than 2 hours. Graphic and accessibility is great, I’m not a PC user but was able to get everything set up without a struggle.

The asus rog ally is like a dream come true. As someone who was very involved with the umpc market before it crashed over a decade ago. If you look past the sd card issue what the ally is capable of is amazing. Can't recommend more

Great machine runs world of warcraft with ease just dies within 2 hours of playing world of warcraft if not on charger bu5 if plug in even if gaming only take 45 mins - an hour to fully charge

The performance is undeniable, but its small battery does not make it great mobile device. If you don't mind always being plugged in a wall outlet or are willing to carry a big power bank with you at all times I would not recommend it. But that is it really, the device is cool, and impressive. It does require a lot of tinkering but it’s a windows pc so that’s expected.
