I was torn between purchasing this ,the STEAM DECK. Or a PS5. There are games on PS that I cant play on XBOX so I figured with tne ROG I could hook it up to TV and play and take on the go.I glad I purchased the Asus ROG. The battery life is not the best. Also set some time aside for inital setup as there ate quite a few UPDATES. After that it was smooth sailing . BTW the graphics on this look amazing

While it is practically a mini pc. I enjoy that I can play my games from Xbox, Steam, EA, & Epic games that I play on my laptop. It does get hot when performance is set at turbo and will use the battery quickly. I usually use Silent mode or 15w performance to keep battery a little longer. I also upgraded to 1tb nvme to add more games hit also have a 1TB micro for additiononal storage.

I really like this device and the portability, its not as heavy as i thought it would be, but still feels very sturdy. I bought a silicone case for it and I actually prefer it without the case. Ive used it to play Diablo 4, Palworld, and Baldurs Gate 3 so far - all have run pretty great. So far I’m satisfied with this purchase

It's got nice hardware and a nice screen as well as a decent pair of speakers. However, the software side of things is what destroys the device. It uses Windows natively which is nice in terms of universal access to software and programs, but the downfall is that it's extremely difficult to navigate using this device. It's also very hard to do basic things like launch a game due to the way everything is integrated. It feels like software is tacked on to this product rather than native like the steam deck. Unfortunately I think that this isn't THE handheld to get and it's going to take another year or two to get something that's just right. I already sold my Steam deck but I don't think that device is up to snuff in the hardware but is way better in the interface. Maybe Steam and ASUS can work together to release a best of both worlds device, but in the meantime I'm going back to my laptop.

This thing is a beast of a gaming experience. Upon ordering I was a bit skeptical due to some of the reviews stating bad BIOS updates, fried SD card issues and joystick dead zone issues but I have not had any of the issues stated. Given I opted out of using an SD card and instead updated the SSD to a 2TB. The initial windows set up was a bit of a pain but once you get through that it works like a dream.

For the past week or so i have enjoyed quite alot of games and titles with this device and I am always in shock of how well games are being runned on this device. Although there are some issues such as the battery life, apart from that it’s really a great system to play games on at home or on the go. I am really looking forward to what this device has to offer in terms of updates as this is only the start!

Amazing handheld device , can run a lot of triple A games without a problem and the speakers sounds so good!

I am so blown away with this. It's literally a baby PC. Perfect for traveling! It's not comparable to Logitech G-Cloud. I am honestly impressed! My only complaint is the battery life. You will need some type of power bank if you want to play longer on this platform.

great console. one of the best handheld consoles to date. its like having your gaming PC with you everywhere. And a vonus is that you can dock it and use it like a desktop when youre home if you wish.

This is a very powerful hand held PC, every single game i have played runs 100 percent, im very impressed by the graphics power and performance. I cant put it down, battery lasts little over 2 hours at mid settings but playing while plug in its easy and it wont bother me at all. Games looks great even at low settings to save battery. This is a must have

Every game I have played has ran amazing the only down side is the battery and memory

absolutely love it! everything that i expected but even more! its a little computer i can take everywhere.

I didn’t like it every card I put in to it for extra storage was fried and it seemed to over heat pretty easy

Feels great in the hand. I like the design. Good performance. However, it kept not reading my sd-cards. And Window's explorer would often completely freeze. In addition, the Armory Crate software, while having good features and shortcuts, wouldn't always respond. I read around and tried a couple other alternative software, like Handheld Companion, and G-helper. These seemed good but not as easy and then some of the physical shortcut keys (for example, launching software, or bringing up the keyboard) weren't working. I like the idea of these devices, but at this time I think a laptop with a controller is 100x a better choice. Sadly there don't seem to be any laptops with new AMD chips in this price range.

Great device for normal gaming but for fps gaming isn’t great on it overall experience is great for travel and its very versatile to hook to a monitor and keyboard and mouse or controller I would say it’s worth it if you don’t mind the lower settings for fps gaming and if you don’t want to carry a heavy laptop.

Great platform. Pairing with a dock and adding a wireless keyboard/mouse, the device performs great. My only gripe is that it not only gets really warm(offset this with a dock with fan) and it’s vulnerable to malware/viruses. Aside from that, it is an awesome machine.

This things an absolute beast, doesn't come ready to go out of the box but after some set up and experimenting with different settings it is a gaming monster. The main complaint I have is the battery life is very very low for most games

I thought I'd fall in love with the ROG Ally, but it was a complicated, one-sided relationship at times. I tried to reach out, but communication just wasn't there. Difficult to understand, unwilling to negotiate, doesn't look me in the eyes anymore. But that's okay, because now I'm setting my sights on other handhelds, and the Ally will see what it's missing. A handheld that understands me and meets me at my level of intellect (it was honestly just too complicated for me)

AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor and 512GB storage offers a fantastic combination of great performance, portability, and stunning graphics. It's a machine that caters to both gamers and power users who need a versatile and travel-friendly machine without compromising on power and display quality.

Powerful hardware. Great screen. Can play wide variety of games. Limited battery life
