Customer Ratings & Reviews

I brought 2 one for myself and one for my 9yr old. we both love it so far no issues. my 9 yr old wanted a gaming PC so I decided on this so he can take it on the go.

Pc games on the go as long as their is a power outlet close because you only get about a hpur of play time unplugged. Which i better then i expected

A lot of people have complaints about the ease of use of this device, but I do not. I've been looking for a handheld that runs windows and has the specs to run really good games as well as old games. I love that I can essentially replace my desktop and my laptop with this device for most of the stuff I do day to day on a desktop PC. The only con I have to this device is the design of the SDs card slot location as these cards can get hot to be in with and this device doesn't help. Cool off the SD card. It actually makes it hotter. Other than that, I love this device and I would recommend.

The Ally is a great handheld with a remarkable screen. I own this and the SteamDeck and definitely prefer this over the SteamDeck. If I were to rate this product when I first purchased it I would have likely rated it 4 stars due to some of its limitations (specifically inability to charge at full capacity unless you used the provided Asus charger), but Asus has done a really good job with providing regular software updates and continues to make positive, iterative quality of life improvements on the device. I would definitely recommend to anyone interested!

Great device. Ergonomics are okay which the Xbox ally improves upon. Battery is okay as well for light games, but I'll usually stay plugged in for more intense games

Great computer my kid loved it and uses it all the time she says its like a little computer

Purchased the Ally to be able to play PC games in the go and while traveling for work. This device has almost the same specs as my home PC and is quick. Very quick.

This is the best gaming habdgeld ive ever owner i would advise you swap the ssd to a bigger and not use a sd card for aaa games. Other than that five stars.

Excellent gaming handheld and portable computer. Super powerful. Very responsive. I really like all the features. Battery life is not the best, but it is as expected.

I use this to play my Game Pass games natively on the go. It took a WHILE to set up, but it has been great afterwards. I can play my games at 60 FPS at 720p without issue. This includes Killer Instinct, Forza Horizon 5, Halo Infinite, and TMNT Shredder's Revenge. Its even better that i got the Z1 extreme open box for $560. If you can get through the initial setup, you will be very pleased with the product.

Excellent device!! Would highly recommend it! I have this and the Lenovo legion go and recommend them both. Honestly this device has better speakers than the legion, but the screen on the legion is amazing because it is larger.

Awesome powerful handheld device. You can take this anywhere,anytime wherever you want to. A must have portable handheld device. 100 percent satisfaction

The title is brutal but the review is honest. As someone who has reviewed IT over the past 30 years and a huge ASUS Rog fan, I expected a lot from this unit. Full disclosure, I have a Steam Deck (SD). The weight of Ally is good, lighter than SD, and more comfortable to hold for long lengths of time. The screen is bright and is also a touchscreen. Buttons are good and are laid out similar to SD without the trackpads. Where this unit falls short is the Windows 11 OS. ASUS should have reached out to Valve to license the SteamOS for this unit. Putting Steam in Big Picture mode does provide a similar navigation effect to the SD but for some reason, Windows 11 wants to display the taskbar at the bottom no matter what. Of course, I can auto-hide the taskbar (but you shouldn't have to.) For Microsoft this is a huge missed opportunity to break into a portable gaming unit for the XBOX. xCloud or XBOX Pass should have been an automatic start and overlay for this unit. The main purpose for Ally is for gaming so while having a full desktop OS is nice, it should have been buried like SteamOS is currently set on SD. Conclusion: If you want an SD, this is not going to work for you. If you want a portable gaming system based on the latest Ryzen Tech, this will work but understand the limitations of Windows 11 on this small device. I cannot recommend this to beginners or novice users.

The best Windows handheld computer, with the best design resulting in the best performance.

Excellent handheld computer for gaming as long as you take care of it it well worth the purchase

Great, but battery needs to improve. Good screen! Controls are fine

Only con is the battery but when you think about howuch you're pumping out. Great graphics, controls are comfortable, and very fast

Plays any game i want and yeah the battery life is not amazing but you dont need to play games more than a few hours at a time

I take my Asus rog ally to work everyday and it has been a great time, i get to llay diablo 4 durijg my break making sure i dont miss any raids and challenges.

I love this thing! I am a PCMR type person but when everyone is asleep and i feel like laying down i can play my pc games in bed so its a seamless jump going from my pc to this in bed. Battery life isnt a issue for me since its always plugged in, my vehicles have a 100watt 110v plug in them. Super comfortable to hold, super powerful compared to the steam deck and the last of track pads is a huge plus for me as i hate track pads on the steam deck. I added a 1tb gen 4 m.2, 9h screen protector, asus dock, 3d printed a stand and dust cover for the external gpu socket that only leaves the usb c exposed.
