Customer Ratings & Reviews

This little handheld is super powerful. Plays any triple A game at great frame rates. Battery is not that great but i carry a battery pack with me so not to big of a deal breaker i would recommend this to a friend.

Has been an amazing unit so far beside the SD card reader it has burnt up my card in a day but doesn’t affect anything else and it still works just make sure you do not use it until asus figures out what’s wrong

The screen is awesome, comfortable to hold for long periods of play. The battery life is a joke, but it's great for short play sessions during my lunch break.

Excellent little on the go setup. Surprised the capability to run large developer games. You aren't missing a thing gaming wise with this.

The Rog Ally is very great for on the go gameplay. The only thing really negative is the battery life. I recommend buying a power adapter for the car. Other than that its a 10/10

This is a windows device thats come with all the headaches of pc gaming. If you come from pc and want another way to play an endless amount of games on the go, this is a solid opition. Next consider your use case, how long are you going to be away from an power outlet and what kind of games are you going to be plays because the battery life is short! If you got a use case that centers being around a power outlet or playing older/indie this is a great luxary to play on but not a great optio.n if you want this as ur main gaming device

I love this product. Was skeptical of buying because of some known issues but had since been fixed. I bought mine new and haven’t had any of the issues people have had. I’ve clocked 15ish hours on it. I purchased it for a long flight and thought it would be fun to play some games. It worked out great for me and I don’t plan on returning it. Only thing is the controller feel is a bit weird. I would like it to fit my hand a bit better. But the storage is great, battery has performed well for me, the screen is absolutely amazing, doesn’t over heat. I played for 7 hours on a 12 hour flight. I had it plugged in majority of the time and never over heated. Great product, would recommend.

Amazing handheld gaming pc! This definitely exceeded my expectations and the software it comes with is very polished and optimized. I love all the overlays that are implemented so it makes using the device easier. Armory crate is a must and makes the whole experience feel very console like. The fact that it’s also windows 11 makes it possible to mod games and achieve everything your desktop can do. In my experience 512gb of storage is enough I already own a desktop and I usually play one single player story game at once so 512 is plenty. I’m currently playing atomic heart and always get over 60fps on medium to high settings at 1080p. I’d definitely recommend this it’s awesome to be able to bring your pc everywhere you go

Honestly one of the greatest pieces of tech ive had the opportunity to hold in my hands. An emulation beast, affordable thanks to that ML cut-back of the Ryzen 7 7840u. High refresh rate and really low response time delay. Those speakers can speak from every angle. Its an amazing time to be a gamer, apart from the broken AAA titles being released, emulation will be your best experience here from Odyssey to Switch. Hopefully next rendition of an ASUS handheld places the SD card somewhere where little heat is being generated, also wishing soon Windows is released with a handheld/gaming version without all that unnecessary background processing for a gaming device that drain the battery.

A very powerful device! I bought a dock and gaming keyboard and mouse and it runs perfectly. Playing all my pc game’s traditionally AND portable! One of my best / most used purchases In a while.

This was a slight learning curve as you need to know how to set it up, but it has been a game changer. I absolutely love love love this. I can play all the games I want without needing to take up a whole tv screen or be at my PC. Definitely recommend. Just know that it will take a bit to get used to. Looking up help guides really saved me time.

Nice for travel. Some games require WiFi, so not completely off grid. Nice resolution. Had to get a higher SD card for storage.

Armory crate is a bit annoying from time to time but all in all this is a powerful little PC as portable as a Switch.

The main thing I believe everyone gets wrong when they buy is that they think it's a switch. Wrong it is basically a very small gaming laptop that if you want to have the best performance you need to keep it plugged in. but for everything else it is easy to set up and plays everything I have thrown at it. I would warn you though make sure you play games that are more for controllers than keyboard and mouse because you can connect them you just have to have a Bluetooth version of them. Lastly, you can play it on battery just note it will drain very fast maybe will last 2 hrs

It's a good concept but until the chips are more powerful or you are a console gamer it's really jarring going from 75-120hz down to 35 and then even worse when even on simple games like Super Mega Baseball you unplug it and the FPS tanks to 25 so you have to turn it up to consume 25-30w to get a stable 30 with lowered settings and using upscaling (RSR driver level) which chews through the battery. Build quality was okay. Needs a stand that isn't made of cardboard especially on the Extreme model at 650 bucks IF you find it on Sale after tax.. Can't have a Switch like stand or at least on made of plastic? This is a bit nit picky as you buy it for handheld mode but I'll give it that it has decent cord length but it's just not ready. Wish Nvidia would make one with an Arm chip and GPU with Tensor cores to use DLSS upscaling so at least you get decent upscaling. May look into the Claw since it has XESS but it lacks the support of DLSS. Also I saw the cpu running under 1ghz at 25w mode and it was what was holding back the game. AMD has a ways to go on APUs still for handheld at least. Performance plugged in is night and day from unplugged even turning the power up all the way won't be as stable on battery and its noticable. Couldn't get Cyberpunk playing at low Steam Deck settings at a stable 30fps at 720p either even on wall power without it so aggressively upscaled you can't make heads or tails of what's going on.

It does everything I want it to do no slowdown runs smooth lightweight decent battery and the ability to connect to tv for big screen gaming is great

Great device for playing AAA games. Battery life is not great and there are sometimes software malfunctions with Windows 11, but overall a powerful device.

Ally rog portable handheld is great..it is great PC playing game on the go.. highly recommend to get Ally rog to play your game on Handheld PC

I bought one at launch and returned due to issues, gave a refurb a go and will be returning also due to issues, but the software and BIOS updates have been nothing short of amazing - and this is ASUS we're talking about, who make some of the absolutely worst software inflicted on the PC industry. I disable the auto-install of armory crate on my motherboard but the ally variant is solid. I am pleading with you ASUS, hall effect sticks and 32GB at max speed for the Z2 Extreme variant and it'll be an absolute success.

Love gaming on my ROG Ally. I wish the battery lasted longer. But aside from that, I definitely recommend for on the go gaming.
