Great device for Gaming on the go! As a dad i didnt get much time to game anymore but now i can snag a few minutes here in there while the family is occupied.

I didn’t have high expectations for this unit at all. I am used to using an Alienware m17. Since I use a cross between steam and Xbox ecosystems this was a good portable option to utilize the subscriptions and purchase I already utilize. I played with it for about a week left it on the charger downloading mw3 by the time I got back I got a no boot error. ( I was using a SD card as well). I was not happy. Thankfully I am a stickler for the latest updates. The bios upgrade included cloud restore. I was able to still see the drive so I wiped the system logged on the cloud restore which if you ever had to wipe a system before is a pain this made it very easy. No usb boot drive needed. Since then no issue works like a dream. The customization options are good and getting better with each update. I have been using it more and more over the Xbox and the m17.

Love this portable gaming system fast quiet and beautiful screen my steam deck replacement

For a portable handheld gaming windows experience this is a great option but be prepared to charge this device regularly. It basically has the same battery as the steam deck but with a “better” CPU and screen. However, the better hardware taxes the battery.

Not a bad product. It is my first handheld and yet I seem to be using my console and gaming pc more. The comfort is not what I like the most. Also it needs more memory for sure to make it a good product. But it does play games well when they work. Been hearing about all kinds of problems it so far I haven’t experienced any.

I wish the battery lasted longer but overall an amazing system. The grafix are awesome!!!

I've so far just played Baldur's Gate 3 on it, and the hardware is amazing. I don't love the Windows controls using the controller, the buttons and functions don't intuitively map to mouse clicks, but it doesn't prevent actual gaming from being awesome on a handheld. Plays BG3 at ultra settings just fine and looks great.

Love it , is a “pc” you can take any where . Super Fun

Arguably one of the best pc handhelds on the market. Despite the battery life, it's been great with gaming and is now my home pc when connected to the ROG charger.

I loved this console, the hardware is amazing to play all kinds of games and emulations with ease. The only problem I've notice is the battery, is not good but it can be solved with a powerbank. Now I'm excited to see the improvements of the new black model.

It is very good love it and it is very fast the battery is not so good

Its quite versatile. You wont have to lug around a laptop on the go if youre strictly playing games on it. But you can purchase a seperate small monitor, if needed, for other computer related tasks. Only complaint is it takes a little bit to update the entire thing between asus updates and windows updates.

Only issue is heat control gets way too hot quick. Definitely upgrade fans first thing

Good price point for performance. Limited with ports, but makes up for it in portability.

Amazing and powerful! Battery life sucks but expected with a handheld of this magnitude.

Amazing prefect for on the go gaming. Only downside is not enough storage

I bought the ROG Ally for my father. Its already setup and just requires a steam download to get going. He enjoys playing MW3 a lot!

Solid device that can “easily” handle most titles with ease. Xbox game pass works solid and all platforms seem to run smoothly as long and OS is updated accordingly. Had since release and never had to return or an hiccups so far.

It's got nice hardware and a nice screen as well as a decent pair of speakers. However, the software side of things is what destroys the device. It uses Windows natively which is nice in terms of universal access to software and programs, but the downfall is that it's extremely difficult to navigate using this device. It's also very hard to do basic things like launch a game due to the way everything is integrated. It feels like software is tacked on to this product rather than native like the steam deck. Unfortunately I think that this isn't THE handheld to get and it's going to take another year or two to get something that's just right. I already sold my Steam deck but I don't think that device is up to snuff in the hardware but is way better in the interface. Maybe Steam and ASUS can work together to release a best of both worlds device, but in the meantime I'm going back to my laptop.

This is the device I've been waiting for. Compatible with everything. The Steam Deck is great, but it was frustrating looking at my library and seeing "not commpatible with Steam Deck." All you have to do is login to Xbox, Steam, Epic Games, whatever, download your games and they show up in Armoury Crate. Sure, it's a Windows device, but once you get it setup and running, it's a truly fantastic device.
