    If you want to be able to play all of your games on a handheld then this is the best option. The VRR screen feels like a neccesity on these and none of the 7840U options have it. The only problem is battery life. The battery life is terrible.

    This device is actually better than my MSI Claw. This device does not heat up. I use my sd card and had no problem with it. I had this device for at least a month now. The whole device does not over heat. Only the charger adapter heats up when the device is 50 percent. It is super fast charging for me. Battery life is good for at least 2 hours. Msi claw i own battery life sucks is probably from amazon i got it from the seller. I would recommend rog ally z1 extreme to people that has low budget. My advice is wait till they have a sale for 400 dollars it is worth buying

    In my experience with the ROG Ally, it has made a favorable impact. While acknowledging the potential for battery improvement, its versatility as a handheld is commendable, adeptly handling indie and AAA games. For those still uncertain, watching a few videos could provide clarity. However, I wholeheartedly recommend it for gamers seeking a straightforward yet powerful handheld option.

    It runs really well and is fast, the graphics are pretty good as well. The one thing I’m not a huge fan of is the battery life. It lasts somewhere between 1-2 hours. So not the best if you wanna take it on a long trip without somewhere to plug it in. But still pretty good. I love it.

    This handheld is great for those wanting a handheld with the flexibility of a windows device. One thing of note though is you have to understand that the experience isn’t going to be as straight forward as something like the steam deck or switch, it’s not a pick up and play device and will take some tweaking to get some functionality running smooth. Once you get it setup and running though it runs great and an impressive device.

    Before anything,, If you OWN AN ALLY!,,, for 4$ there is a right angled M.2 Adapter online that lets you put in a full 2280. Every other cheap PC handheld doesn't do that. in Theory if you could afford a 8TB drive, it could be done.. The screen size on the Go is tempting, This is lighter and still gets heavy in certain positions. I really Really HATE That ASUS needs to know who I am for a Graphics Driver...AMD releases Z1 Extreme drivers through the builder not directly.... And Windows.....almost want to hack it. Whatever happened to devices working and not holding themselves hostage without having my info? Shame on ASUS, Shame on Microsoft. the UI " works" but Big Picture is better. It runs Starfield better than I figured it would. The touch Keyboard is just not good! I wish you had the option to make it a 98% style for more functionality, or put a big move button so I can read what I'm typing. It's a great Device with mostly bloatware/software gags. Also final Gripe! Hall effect say What?

    First I’d like to point out that this is a windows gaming PC. Its not a console. So if thats the experience youre expecting youre in the wrong place. That said, its quickly become my facorite gaming device and had replaced my steam deck, switch, xbox, and desktop gaming PC. Being able to play all of my favorite games mobile is a dream come true. Ive had no problems witj it from day one. Kudos to ASUS for this masterpiece.

    The device is very nice and plays some incredible games. However, the most important thing, battery life is quite short on this device. Short enough that it wouldn’t really work that well for handheld-heavy moments where you do not have the freedom to be plugged in to the power. I hope the ally 2 gets a massive increase in battery life.

    Deadzone issues, Trigger issues, BIOS perf degradations, SD card reader issues and the list goes on and on. The screen is very good and performance is there, but poor QC and unfinished release makes it not worth it.

    Ally against SD and legion go

    I was debating between the ally, sd OLED and legion go. The ally won out against the sd due to having better performance and windows which means I'm not limited to just steam as I have games from other platforms. Ally also won against the legion go as the legion is an ergonomic nightmare for me, it's just not comfortable. I love the ally and I'm happy with my purchase.
