Customer Ratings & Reviews

This thing is great. Bought to replace steam deck and it does not disappoint! Runs triple A games at 50-60++ fps. Very easy to use and feels great in my hands. Highly recommend for the mobile gamer!

I was able to get this on sale for $599. So far it has worked flawlessly and received a number of updates to improve its operation. Highly recommend its use for Steam Big Picture Mode, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Moonlight, Chiaki (PlayStation streaming) and Retro Gaming. With a dock it can easily be a solid desktop computer with similar specs to what you could get in a gaming desktop of similar price but you also get the option for portability or couch/bed play time.

I really liked this. I actually sold my steam deck and bought this. The screen is much better, it looks cooler, and it is faster. Most importantly it runs Windows by default, which means I can run Fortnite and other games without jumping through hoops. Unfortunately, my SD card failed after about a month of use. This is a very commonly issue if you search and appears to be a design flaw. I am returning it until there is some resolution.

I like the ASUS rog ally because it can play more of the games that I own than the Steam Deck. It's not the huge leap in oerformance over the Deck that i was hoping for, but its definitely better.

Fun but gets hot sometimes from continuous playing. Battery life isn’t so great if playing high performance or turbo mode

I have a steam deck and this. This blows the steam deck out the water. Only thing is battery life is terrible. But shocked how well this runs

Best handheld on the market hands down! Makes this a perfrct mobile pc replacement with a bunch of accessories available as well!! Cant wait for future handhelds!!

Great product the only thing is the battery dies kind of quick while gaming. It could also have a little more storage.

ROG Ally is the best handheld I ever used. The screen is so crystal clear and games look amazing on it. You can play all your games on it and this is why I got the Ally over the Steam Deck.

It Runs Games Amazingly, but it Overheated and ruined my 1tb Micro SD and the Battery is really bad without a battery Bank on Demanding Games

This is literally a portable pc in your hands!! It’s super fast and there absolutely no lag while you are playing your games!! 10/10 recommend

Very powerful handheld I had an easy process setting it up idk if it’s just my unit but everything just works seamlessly and smooth. Worth every penny it’s playing games my steam deck couldn’t play.

The ASUS software for the Ally is a bit buggy, but it gets the job done for the power it has. The iGPU is in the Z1 Extreme is about as powerful as a 1650-Mobile Max-Q. I'm waiting for the ROG Ally 2 to come out in late 2024, with supposedly 33% more compute units in the iGPU of the next APU. It'll be up to 50% more powerful than the current Ally and by then the ASUS software bugs should be mostly cleared out, hopefully.

Performance is very solid and allows most games to be played at medium settings or better. The feel is quite sturdy and reliable. Very happy with this purchase.

Good handheld gaming PC. Can run all AAA game at max or near max settings when plugged in. Battery is pretty bad through so i ended up getting a 46000 mah portable battery for the extra juice.

Great console, easy to play, well build, very good sound and handling.

I returned my Steam Deck back to Valve and bought this from Best Buy other than it getting stuck in Transit longer than it should of because of FedEx not Beat Buy I do highly recommend this and love it I just wish the battery was better, but that’s mostly probably because of resource hog. and I haven’t updated the storage or SD card just yet plus other accessories yet but I will in time and I would buy it again.

Battery life is not blvery good, but device is powerful . It can play most triple A games at least 60fps.

The hardware is sturdy and well made. There are a few quirks that we need to work through but I think it will get better with time since windows in this form factor is new and is bound to have teething problems. Also, games are not going to work out of the box. A good few hours need to go into setting up the system before it is even ready for gaming. The Armory Core Software also needs to be get used too but once you figure it out it gives some nice controller mapping for even classic PC games like Jazz Jackrabbit i got out of GOG.

Great product. Its a portable computer in your hands with a twist of video games
