    Absolute blast! Really great device. Have had zero issues. Surprised by battery life after watching YouTube Reviews. Plays Wildlands, Diablo 4 and Far Cry 5 extremely well.

    Great device for on the go gaming. As someone who works and has little time and energy to game on my pc setup after a long day, this device is a lifesaver. The only really downside for me is the battery capacity but since I mostly play at home or where there is a nearby outlet t plug in its not really a big problem.

    The ROG Ally is a great handheld gaming device. It can run many triple A titles at lowest settings. Black Ops 6 is able to run 1080P 60fps. Battery life could be better though.

    A great handheld with a few problems.

    The ROG Ally is a pretty solid handheld that fits pretty well in my hands, while the steam deck is a bit unwieldy. Games run great once you get them running. I ran into an issue where gamepass games wouldn't run due to the windows clock being set to the wrong time. The set up itself could be too much if the person isn't tech smart. Once you go through the standard Windows setup, youll be greated to multiple updates. More advanced users might want to use PowerShell to remove some bloatware/ windows apps that aren't needed.

    The PC game console that I've always wanted.

    Ever since I saw a tiny handheld PC running Windows 95 in a magazine as a kid, I have wanted a portable device with the flexibility of a PC and the gaming focused features of a console. The ROG Ally with the Z1 Extreme processor is exactly what I hoped it would be. The shortcomings are fairly minor. The biggest one is that you will want a keyboard and mouse ar some point. The battery life is limited, but it is manageable. The internal storage is limited, but it can be expanded. Probably my most unexpected use for the Ally is to use it to play PC indie games at 120 frames per second on my TV like a console.

    This device is an absolute workhorse. With this being said, I could not justify keeping the device and ended up returning it. I believe windows is the downfall of the device, not having a trackpad, made navigating windows a lot more difficult. For me, its not about having a device with the most performance as i have a beefy gaming pc already, which is why im going with the steam deck, because of the more affordable pricepoint. For someone that does not have a windows pc, I highly recommend this device its incredible.

    Does exactly what I want it to. I wanted to play pc games while lounging on a sofa. It runs quiet and is powerful enough to play the games I want to play.

    An absolutely amazing Handheld, my only complaints have been not having an OLED screen and the Grips, however the grips have seem to been taken care of with the new ROG Xbox Ally Series!

    I wasn't sure if I was even going to keep this when I ordered it, but after setting it up and playing some games on it, I was sold. I love this little device. I mostly keep it hooked up to my LG C1 and play with an Xbox controller, but it's just as impressive handheld. I'm genuinely surprised at just how much power this little guy has, running most games at medium settings at 1080p, but even running some at high. I honestly play on my Ally more than I play on my PC at this point. Can't recommend it enough!

    Powerful Gaming Computer in your Hand!

    Think of it this way: The Steam Deck and Switch are automatic cars. The ROG Ally is a 6 Speed super sport car. The ROG Ally plays AAA games that look beautiful in your hand. The fact that it runs on Windows 11, some games require some minor tweaking and still run fantastic. It is also a retro gaming beast! I've tested retroarch, mame, yuzu, and others to just name a few and all ran flawlessly. You can get decent FPS from anything you currently throw at it. The screen is sharp, beautiful and visuals are stunning. Again I say. This is not just a console. It is a mini gaming computer. Some knowledge of Windows 11 is definitely needed.

    This is my first handheld computer and I’m still trying to figure it out but so far I love it…. The battery life sucks but there are ways around that like keeping it on the charger while playing it and keeping the graphics & brightness low but if you’re looking for something interesting to play Xbox games before the hand held Xbox comes out I highly recommend this!

    Only knock on this is battery life, but hopefully that is improved through updates in the future. Being able to have a handheld gaming PC to take anywhere is awesome.

    I still cant believe I own a ROG ALLY this machine is a fully capable handheld windows PC with higher gaming specs then a current gen series s console but is totally compatible with Xbox game pass & cloud gaming, from all the big names in cloud gaming to reto emulators all the way to the top AAA games out today on current gen consoles. I have to tell you like I tell my friends this handheld is a BEAST!!!
