Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good little handheld PC for playing games, setting up without using a Microsoft account isn’t too difficult. Armory Crate software seems pretty good for customizing controls and performance. Be wary of getting an open box product from Best Buy, my “excellent” one had a broken LB, don’t know how they missed that when checking it over.

The asus rog ally is good for AAA games and really good performance. The downfall is the battery life 1 hour last.

When i first got the rog ally it was amazing and was speedy, after the 319 motherboard firmware went to chit, downgraded to 317 and now its doing great buy other than that its plays ALLYour games at a decent fps, with that being said its better than steamdeck. Having issues with your rog ally? DO NOT SELL IT! Work is in progress, just like when steamdeck first came out it was a buggy mess but with updates it works just fine.

There are a coiple of things that couls be better. One is the battery life, iy really sucks and the other problem is the overheating at times

This device has been a definite blast!!! It’s been a great little gaming handheld and it has been extremely helpful for getting to and through my back catalogue of games. I highly recommend this device but only if you can get it on sale especially with the ally x right around the corner

works great, games look great. little tedious working the desktop but once you have stuff installed it's great

Great device for gaming, it doesn’t necessarily make gaming ‘portable’ because you will want it plugged in for the best performance and to play longer than an hour.. I use mine for a few different games Beamng drive, world of Warcraft …it works really good for most games however games like wow that aren’t fully optimized will occasionally freeze, do a black screen and resume eventually but it can be really frustrating ..addons like consoleport make it a seamless experience outside of that though..

Great handheld system. The ROG Ally is just an amazing piece of work. I am able to play pretty much all my games comfortably without any issues. Plug and play and I am good to go. Did I mention that this is a full blown PC!?! The ROG ally is a laptop that you can play games, listen to music, watch Netflix, live events, browse the web and do work if need. I believe the Ally is best used for travel away from home or if you're home without access to the console or gaming PC. Do not hesitate to buy especially to be used as a luxury secondary gaming device instead of the a primary. In my case I have a PC with an RTX 4090 and when I am out I can play anything.

Amazing product for gaming on the go I suggest buying some spare memory for this product because you will use up the stock memory fast

Love this! My wife and I had been gaming on the Nintendo switch for about 2 years. Handhelds is our preference because it allows for us to game with our little one, and we can all sit together. Highly recommend the Rog Ally if you are interested in handheld gaming. This is miles ahead of the switch, and with windows 11 we can play many more games. I have used the Ally for projects outside of gaming, and have had no issues. LinkedIn and Microsoft office both work wonderfully. Hope this helps anyone who is questioning this purchase.

Got this on an open box deal while working away from home and cant be happier with it. If your familier with operating a windows system you wont have any issues as long as you keep everything updated. Runs pretty much any game and usually get 2+ hours of gameplay on a full charge.

It's a great concept and the system feels really nice but if you own a gaming laptop I think it's hard to justify ownership on this thing. It played Forza motorsport really well and control ran great. FPS will be tough on it due to stick length. When it's on sale I think it'll be a great pickup for any gamer. I liked the weight and feel much better than steam deck.

Got the rog cuz I wanted to play PC games in handheld mode. It was alright. Ran great. But the console was heavy and needed constant charging. Didn't last more than a little over an hour running on battery. Also wrists started hurting from holding it for a short period of time. Ended up returning it.

Bought this for my son after he and I saw the prices for the Switch 2. He's been getting more into steam games and purchases most of the games he has himself. Seeing the prices of the Switch 2 games, he immediately wanted something like this instead. He's constantly using it everywhere and has setup his desk so he can use it with a keyboard and mouse hooked up to occasionally to even play League of Legends on it. He's had no complaints about it and we plan on installing Bazite OS so we can dual boot Windows along with it for a smoother experience for him. Worth the price for sure with how much joy he has and how much more he's outside his room with it and spending time with the family.

If you need a gaming PC that can run every game at minimum 60 FPS plus being extremely portable then you should buy this. Incredible product that needs some firmware updates to be perfect.

This thing is AWESOME! I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Anything you can do on a PC you can do on here. Nice smooth 120hz screen. Highly recommend!

Love this little monster! I was finding myself getting more and more into emulation, but I wanted to take my Steam experience away from the desk too. The couch, bed, you know, the Switch life, but PC master race style. Any of the negative talking points to the Ally are mostly subjective and speak to how the user intends to care for their tech. I purchased a dock for my TV that supports turbo 30w and extra I/O. All that flexibility, and I don't have to pack my "laptop bag" when I travel. Got it open-boxed at a great price. Win, win, win.

If you’re looking for a good handheld windows based gaming application this is it. I’ve been able to run triple A titles on it with no issues at all. The support from asus and the community to get games to run well and do other functions with it is just a google search away. I was able to play Forza Motorsport sport around 50fps on low to medium for 2 hours on a plane ride. It also has micro sd slot and you can take the back off and get more m.2 storage.

Good handheld unit. Plays my games and is also a great handheld PC to watch YouTube and videos. I would recommend if you are looking for a handheld product that is similar. One downside is this market is moving so fast that this seems to be last years model with new models coming out. It still does what I want it to do.

Way better than steam deck. Every game i want to play i play it without having to do a bunch of stuff to make it work. It just works!
