    It’s good for playing. The battery is short but it’s ok you can use a power bank.

    Got an “open box” didn’t seem to be opened at all. Totally worth the price! Battery is lacking, but a nice first gen product.

    I take this everywhere with me. It can play every game I have at around 90fps if I change the graphics settings in game. I would buy a power bank if you arent planning on being plugged into a wall.

    Fantastic Device Hindered by Battery

    I loved the device itself. Feels great in the hands, buttons feel substantial and the touch screen was nice and responsive. Ran games super great at max settings for the device, and having the option for all the various launchers AND Gamepass is a huge plus. I just couldn’t reconcile with the battery life and the necessity to buy external battery power to carry around with it and be tethered to. Battery life at max settings is around 90 minutes, so if youre truly being mobile and playing on a road trip/flight, be prepared to have an outlet nearby to be tethered to. Fantastic device but I just don’t think batteries are where they need to be for the experience this device is capable of providing.

    This is a handheld PC, not a handheld game console. With that said it may not be for everyone. If you have a gaming PC then yuu are accustomed to the challenges that come with Windows. If your use to console your better off with a Steam Deck or Switch. This requires alot of uodates, tweaks, and patience. All of which i am familiar with.it is a power house of a system. Exceeded my expectations.

    We got an amazing deal at such a great time ! My husband really wanted this system for a while and luckily has been the best thing ever for all his gaming needs and wants. Highly recommend if you’re interested in looking into handheld game console that’s like a PC system.

    The Ally is absolutely amazing when it comes to portable pc performance. Havent had a single issue with any game ive tried to run on it. I can even install my remote play and ps+ apps to play games from my ps5/ps+ subscription. Having a full Windows OS opens up much more possibilities than the Steamdeck. 10/10 purchase!

    I love that this device can pretty much play any game without issue and has a 120hz 1080p screen. I can look past Armoury Crate bugs and the fact that Windows is not optimized for handheld devices (yet), but the lack of quality control concerns me. I exchanged my first one already due to RGB issues that may have been with the software, and I’m leaning towards exchanging my replacement because of the fans. Some coil whine I can tolerate, but the one I have now almost makes a different type of crackling noise. I would expect better quality for a $700 device.

    nice little portable gaming pc. Battery life is nowhere close to the steam deck and it also lacks the console like features of the steam deck. This will be an excellent devices if windows updates the OS to include a handheld gaming mode.

    This this is a little powerhouse. I tend to lean more towards portable gaming and the Ally gets me everything from Steam, to Windows, to Xbox, and then some. Add a small dock and you basically have a more versatile Switch. I highly recommend the ROG Ally.

    I bought the extreme version from the store floor and it has been absolutely running amazing. I think that it was tinkered with to be optimized at first and it has run literally amazing. Best purchase I’ve made and will get an XG mobile 3080 to consistently run high settings in apex locked at a consistent fps. This thing is amazing

    Better perfomance than a steam deck, propietary external gpu port is a dissapointment (the rog external gpu is crazy expensive) defied the purpose of more graphic capacity, you cpuld easily buy a gaming laptop for the price of their gpu, but good sytem after all updates so far.

    Exxcellent product, excellent condition as advertised, and excellent customer service from Best Buy. The price was right too! This thing is seriously powerful enough to play AAA games at medium settings at 60FPS and is a dream come true in order to use it as a handheld, or plug it into a dock and tv and use it as an everyday computer.
