Good system but bios current flaws with heat issue
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The heat issue on turbo mode from bios update which lead to ssd overheat in the process what lead to bring back but the device itself and concept is great! Once out for bit longer and main issues are resolved then will probably repurchase again.

A steam deck killer for me!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing. 0 sd card issue. 0 speaker issue. Intuitive game setup. I loved that this was windows over my steam deck with linux and proton this and update this proton for this or that bleh! If you can run a pc this system is fantastic. Better screen. Better processor. Better gpu. Better memory. Better ssd. Easily worth the extra money.

Great for people who want to ticker
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am loving having the Ally. It has a very powerful performance with its different TDP profiles. The face buttons feel mushy in a good but the sticks feel kinda loose which I don't like but I haven't had any dead zone with the sticks. the D-Pad feels really good and works well with 2D games and works well for fighting games. the triggers feel excellent and the RB and LB buttons feel better than the steam decks. My only reason for giving it 4 stars is because of the software. Asus does a great job with it but Windows just doesn't feel like it was meant for a handheld but here is where the fun can come in. Because its windows there are so many things you can do to fine-tune the experience. From fine-tuning the TDP with manual mode to setting up controls for games you wanna play in armory crate is awesome. If you are someone who loves to mess with settings and discover things pick this up today!

Awesome device
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plays great. Way, WAY more power thans Steam Deck. Battery life is poor but no worse than Deck in reality. Being able to use Game Pass, Epic, and other stores without any hoops is a great feature. All-in-all a great device especially for the money.

Soso. Ok for gaming on the go.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ended up returning this. It was ok but you have to do a lot of tinkering with it to get a lot of games to work. First off the size is ok its a bit bigger than a Nintendo Switch. It is technically portable but the battery life is terrible. About an hour and a half max even playing simple games. My kids like playing Among Us a fairly simple game. They could play it on the phone for 5 to 10 hours but in this its still 90 minutes max. Second after a bios update it got real glitchy. That combined with the low battery life made the decision to return it pretty easy.

Fantastic handheld pc
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love my ROG Ally. I have ot and a steamdeck but i find myself going to my ally every singe time i go to play something at work or on the go. I carry both with me but the ally just looks and plays games so much better not to mention it does everything any other pc could do. It really is a pocket pc running on windows 11

ROG Ally = Gaming PC + PS5/X-Box + Switch = WIN!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my absolute favorite new tech gaming device. I have a PS5 and have not been able to play PC games for years due to having a family. This device now allows me to play both PC titles *and console titles...and being able to do it all MOBILE? I mean, come on. This thing is a powerhouse gaming PC that I can dock to a monitor, mouse, and keyboard anytime I want to use it as a PC or to more easily download or configure it. But when it comes to gaming, hand-held all the way! I really do love this thing. Only BIG advice to any prospective owner is download the software called 'StarAllBack' to change the terrible Windows 11 interfaces back to Windows 10 styling. Besides that? This thing is 10X worth its wait in gold! As far as accessories: Yes, I do think you should purchase a larger HDD to fit more games. Get yourself a 2TB HDD. There's more and more cases as well, which I do also recommend. Also recommend getting a 'dock' so you can use it as a desktop PC or plug into your TV more easily.

hell yeah
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is great. It plays most every game real well, it feels really comfortable in your hands, I've been extremely happy with it. Biggest downside is the battery. Playing it on the max settings, you might be lucky to get 90 minutes on the battery. Much more on the lower operation modes, but be prepared to charge.

Has potential but…
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Light, portable, good looking with a built in finger print reader and excellent screen. However, the well known Micro SD overheating issue along with my unit frequently freezing made me return mine.

Fun for any gamer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Despite the sd card issue, the device runs great and is extremely fun. Got me back into gaming. Easy to use and portable even for its size. Have a 2 yr old and gaming has been hard but this has allowed me to game with the little time available. Recommend

Pleasantly surprised
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was actually surprised how well this runs games, I have played pretty straining games and it runs great. Speakers are good quality and can get loud. Doesnt get too hot while playing and the fans are quiet. Screen is very vibrant. All around great product.
