    Excellent gaming system. I was able to download my favorite PlayStation games on this to play handheld while recovering from surgery.

    So far it runs games pretty smoothly. I did the updates which is definitely the first thing you need to do. Armoury crate is alright and honestly, it runs as expected on a handheld running windows. I was one of the first to preorder the steam deck and was pretty disappointed more so with the display. The ally’s display is way better and the fact that im not limited to just my steam library is a plus. It’s only going to get better with the updates

    Tweaks are needed to get the best match between battery life and game quality. Some of the controlling for games can be a learning curve that is not super simple, but the same is true on any hand held. Cannot play XBox games offline easily, so if travelling make sure you have a hotspot.

    I got this portable pc for gaming and some work on the road and let me tell you it does not disappoint. It is amazing how much power is stored in this little guy. It is more powerful than my slightly older pc. Plays GTA5 flawlessly, I managed to run Assetto Corsa and Project Cars and they looked beautiful. I even hooked it up to my TV and it runs amazingly well there as well.

    Phenomenal. Asus once again shows it's the King of PC Gaming and manages to murder the Steam Deck with ease. Don't waste your time with Valve and SteamOS; this is a pocket gaming PC showing every bit of ASUS and AMD's power.

    I play a lot of cozy games and controller works perfect for them. Its full windows 11 and i can download all my launchers and mods, compatible with all file types. There are some games that dont support controller yet that i cant play but for the most part i can play everything. Absolutely love this thing, runs great and allows more flexibility. My store had several open item units for $100 off too.

    The ROG Ally is muc more capable than the Steam Deck, which i sold the purchase this. I have not had any issues downloadijg and playing games from various services, such as Xbox Game Pass, and steam, and battle net. Some people have reported issues with micro sd cards, i have not experienced any isses eith mine. The screen is perfect and varable refresh rate works perfect. My only complaint ia that i havent had enough time to play.

    I am not easily impressed but this thing is amazing. I really wanted a steam deck but could not get myself to buy it due to the bad screen quality. Low resolution and bad colors. The ally does everything and have not had one issue. It runs windows so if you are familiar setup and use will be a breeze. Still a few software things I hope Asus improves on like more features for aura sync, allow macros to work in auto mode and a few other small things

    Used mostly for gaming, but can be used for any computer function. Think of it as a gaming laptop that's handled. It plays Reminent 2(with some tweaking), fps with no problems, any scroller or 2d games give that awesome console feel. I use it for remote access into my desktop also. Very powerful little machine. Can connect Bluetooth mouse and keyboard while connected to a TV or monitor. Really pleased with this device.

    Great performance. Battery life is decent for what it is as long as you understand this is not meant to play top titles in turbo mode for hours. Biggest complaint is build quality. Some of the buttons felt fairly cheap for a device that costs $500+.

    Really good handheld console, I wish there was an option for more storage such as 1 tb instead of having to buy a micro sd card or ssd card for the device. Also there was a few problems with my ROG ally when I had my sd card in for a few weeks. Overall pretty nice, I play Xbox and pc games, pretty new to Steam, usually a console player.
