Its ok
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Ally is ok but unlike the steam deck, you can’t just turn it on and start playing games there’s way too much fiddling with windows. After initial set up and updates, the unit restarted windows crashed to the blue screen, and I was stuck in that loop I had to go into the Bios restore windows from Asus cloud server which took a couple of hours. Also, there is a lot of windows programs that wast space. Ive played Halo for a couple hours and it doesn’t run nearly as smooth  as it does on the SD i’m sure you can fiddle with settings to make it run better but in my opion you shouldn’t have to. I will be returning and hanging onto the deck for a while.  Also the Ally feels very small and cheap It’s not nearly as comfortable as the SD the grips are very thin. The screen looks beautiful though.

Posted .Dear NM217,
It's regrettable to hear you've encountered issues with your ROG Ally. Please know that you can run Steam in Big Picture mode and enable controller support in Steam to help with setting up the Ally with Steam. To improve gaming performance, set your system to Turbo mode. Other than that, you would need to make sure you're caught up on any pending updates on Armoury Crate and Windows update. If you need any further assistance, feel free to contact me at cl-adrian@asus.com, and I will help you to the best of my abilities. I am here to assist our customers with our products and dedicated in bringing a resolution to all issues that they may come across. Please copy a link to this post as a reference.
Thank you for choosing ASUS!
Best Regards,
Adrian
