Truly as Good as They Say
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first PC…an I’m 42. This thing is surprisingly powerful. I can even play Star Citizen, a game in it’s 8th year in Alpha. I was even able to run a Zoom conference using my Atomos Cast connected for multicam.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Screen quality
It's ok
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The screen is amazing. The rest is ok. The device is pretty painful to hold for long periods of time especially compared to the Deck. Windows is fine now that one suffered through some issues and done a complete factory reset. The device _can_ play games really well at the turbo mode but I never want to use it in that mode. By contrast it's completely crippled in silent mode. If the Deck didn't exist, I would keep this and be very happy with it. But that's not the world we live in.

PS5 Portable in a nutshell
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Simply if you want a gaming laptop but want it in a even much smaller form factor, this is what you want. ITS LIKE A SWITCH BUT BETTER. Like a PS5 meets Switch. It's slightly bigger than an OLED Switch in size.

Great Buy
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.ROG Ally for the Win. Love my Ally, still learning to tweak it to its best performance.
I would recommend this to a friend Fun but issues.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Is very complex to set up. For gaming use at first. Rune slow but once you configure it, it becomes a more enjoyable experience. But I’ve had the SD port break on me twice now and it’s very annoying. Take that into consideration before buying.
