Customer Ratings & Reviews

the ROG ally is amazing. I can hang out with my wife where ever she is and still be able to play my ever growing game library. I'm in school 12 hours a day 5-6 days a week and I found that I was not allowing myself anything that I enjoyed. This has allowed me to get back into one of my favorite hobbies. IT IS A WINDOWS COMPUTER. That means you will have to tinker with settings, deal with bugs, and still sometimes get some headaches. It is not plug and play, but if you are used to PC gaming this is a tremendous tool in your toolbox. I was mourning the money I spent at first, but after 2 hours with it playing cyberpunk on my couch while my wife watched tv as we chit chat made it all worth it.

Awesome performance awesome screen. Just it is on windows no fault to it but just not as seemless as a steam deck. If you’re comfortable with windows it’s a home run

Not a fan of this device at all it has windows 11 on there so if your not familiar with it and all its little issues that go along with it then this is not for you. Tinkering is a must to get most games to a playable state, which is fine but if your coming from console “this is not plug and play” like say a steam deck and or Nintendo switch. Battery life is terrible plan on purchasing a power bank and or be somewhere that has an outlet. SD card reader is a common problem with this item, this can be remedied by installing a ssd inside the unit and or using adapters on the outside of the unit which in turn will work also. Choice is yours when it comes to purchasing this device personally I wish I would have returned it during the 15 day warranty that Best Buy offers, but now I’m stuck with it going to put it up on eBay or marketplace to get some money back from my investment. More power to those people who swear by this device that’s cool just realized it’s not for me and that’s fine also

I only had this device for 24hrs and noticed it's been getting mostly 4 stars reviews. Even though it's been only 24 hours. This device isn't 4 star device. The power drain when playing higher spec games is a thing. If you don't play with the specs to change that. The storage isn't that much if you're planning to have those games stored on the device. Now i purchased a M.2 2330 2tb NVMe storage to replace the one included. I purchased Anker 737 power bank. With those two things those 4 stars review would become 5 stars. I only had it for 24hrs so i'll let the other reviews explain the other aspect, but with cloud gaming, pc gaming and emulating gaming. This is the future consoles of gaming here. Give it a shot or wait to the big name players to catch up.

As far as gaming goes, this device is a must, The quality and performance is on another level. The only draw back is the SD card issue that I hope gets fixed by Asus.

This device is great! It's portable and small plus the fans are not loud. I just wish the battery life was better and that there were protective cases available.

My ally is alright. Battery could be better, but overall performance is really good.

I love it so far, i enjoy every si gle AAA game ive played on the rog ally, other than having problems with the R button on one of a few games. The battery is a big problem for me on this one, i also own the steam deck and the battery is better personally. But on this part on the rog ally j love the fact that i dont need 3rd party software to play certain games. But ither than that i love it, in my humble opinion it needs more time and updates, as of now and sadly i am hoping for a powerbank to give me a little bit of extra juice. Ps:materials do feel a little bit to cheap, analog sticks,buttons and shell.

Great device can take it anywhere and less bulky then a computer

I absolutely love this machine. It is a handheld powerhouse. If you are into PC gaming and want a handheld then buy this machine. Sure battery life isn't fantastic but what do you expect running such a robust hardware cpu?

Sinister device! I use it for media playback and of course gaming. It can run any emulation of any console and even handle AAA games. Star Rail runs like a dream. Great idea on me to buy this.

It's a good device, it's not perfect but it works great. There are times when it's clunky to use for typing but the more you use it, the easier it gets. I found using either reddit or asus for the recommended game settings gives the best results. Following those settings can make the difference between keeping and returning the device. The last problem is it should come with a 1tb hard drive. The 500gb fills way to fast. I would only purchase the extreme version and highly recommend purchasing a larger hard drive.

I love this thing. I use it both as a portable gaming device and as a small personal computer. If you want the windows experience this is it.

Very convenient for gaming, has good graphics. Doubles as being able to use for PC related things (word, excel, school). More portable than a traditional laptop.

What a great piece of tech! I've never been much of a PC gamer, but this has swayed me. I've been playing games on it I've intended to play for years across Steam, Game Pass, and the Epic Game Store. And I even discovered I could use it for ultra-portable full-PC work in a pinch. (For me, the question is always, "Can it write?" And the Ally certainly can.) I know some people don't like the fact it has full Windows, but this is a big plus in my case. I wasn't certain I would actually use the Ally, but thus far I've been using it every day and absolutely love it. I highly recommend it.

This is great and smooth especially for anime games, i even installed other emulators game and it would spetacular. Battery is pretty bad, but i always play it plugged in so i dont mind it!

I have had this product for a few week's now and i use itnalmost daily. I did a lotnof research on handhelds before finally buying this one. This product is definitely the best. My only complaint is battery life. You can only use the cord it comes with to charge. My other cords that fit will not charge this device. Im not sure if the adapter makes it so all chargers work but overall im satisfied with this device just wish the battery was better.

Big fan of this product. Love how im able to use it when im away from my PC to still remain playing with friends. The battery itself is short but with the introduction of these pc handhelds its not uncommon

Amazing. Only downside is the battery life, but its great for playing games around the house snd not being tied down to a desk or TV. Would recommend 100 out of 100 times.

If you like handheld gaming and the ability to have the power of a low end pc with xbox compatibility this thing is for you o have over 300 hours logged with my ally it restored my love for gaming as a 34 year old.
