    Very impressed on how good this runs AAA titles. If you want max frames getting the XG Mobile egpu is the way to go. But, if you dont mind 50-90 fps on some games its perfect. Im definitely happy with the purchase, very impressed. Only reason its bot 5 star for ne is cause of the frames.

    I really love this handheld. I've played a large variety of games and the quality is amazing. Very few crashes, but I'd suspect the ones that occur are from the games (Starfield). 4 stars because I like to play on the top performance mode and I have to keep it plugged in.

    I've never been much of a PC gamer as I've been intimated by building my own rig. I've wanted to buy a Steam Deck but most of the games I want to play are Windows only and this handheld PC fits my need. Very powerful for a portable and quite intuitive as far as accessing games library because of Asus Armory Crate. I'm sure the experience will only get better at more updates and optimizations are created for this platform.

    1080p power

    Right now one of the best windows handheld. It was quiet before the update but still the quietest windows handheld by far. Not the best ergonomics but not the worst. The textured plastic helps your grip, but it feels cheap. You can't compare this to a steam deck when you think about this 1080p screen and the power to match.

    Did my SD card reader fail? Yes. Do I care? Not really! I was able to swap in a 2240 SSD into this thing (with instructions from Asus!) and have been PC gaming for the first time in years. I have played all sorts of games on this thing, from AAA titles, to emulators, to indie hits on steam I can't get on my consoles. And, PC Gamepass on this thing is a game changer. I love it.

    I picked up the ROG Ally a few weeks ago and overall I’m really happy with it, especially if you want real PC gaming on the go, I like that i can take it anywhere and play on the go

    Took me 5 months to commit to buying this thing. I have zero regrets after buying. Sucks it has to be plugged in most of the time when playing higher quality games, but serves its purpose just right otherwise. Gets a little heavy on the wrists after extended use.

    If it wasnt for all the windows stuff you have to do itll be highly recommended but its like having a tiny laptop that you really cant do much laptop stuff because its small.

    I’m loving my ROG ally! It’s running games so smoothly! Some higher end games need tweaking but you can play them. Plus you have access to more stores than just Xbox and steam! Would recommend

    I have been very happy with my new ROG Ally. I debated whether to give it 4 or 5 stars due to some of the software and OS issues you are bound to experience, but overall, even with the issues, I appreciate the versatility of the device. Also, I upgraded the storage immediately. Mine now has 2TB internal and 1TB microSD. What an amazing device, especially considering where I started this gaming journey (Atari 2600).

    I love it serves my purposes well. Like having a handled laptop. Only issue is battery life but gaming laptops batteries are most as bad. The Ally has multiple different battery saving options. I would recommend it over any the steam deck, msi, or the Lenovo version.

    Excellent hand held gaming device when im on the go. It has the power of a PC and portability thats better than a laptop. I love this for when i have some time before classes when im bored. The overheating problem isnt too bad either. Overall great console.

    I have a ps5 and xbox series x and havent boot them up since i got the ally ... the ps5 and xbox look better graphics wise but on a 7 inch display it looks good . Besides the portability of the device is what won me over . I have kids so its hard to get playing time . Im able to finish my video games really fast

    ROG Ally is a beast

    My first PC handheld and it is a beast! The only concern I. Have is the battery as games like Diablo lasts for an hour or so. I play Performance so that’s probably why it’s draining but aside from that I’ve been satisfied. Main reason for getting this is to be able to be mobile and have access to games my friends play on PC.
