Way to go ASUS
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome PC on the go. I bought it for my son's birthday and he absolutely loves it. It's perfect for gamers on the go but only downside is the battery doesnt last that long if he plays on it continuously.

Has initial setup, but great overall
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hey, look, its a PC. If you dont know how to download updates before you start trying to play games, then dont buy this then whine about it later. If you dont mind doing some updating installation and configuration, and your PC games library is not mostly on Steam, then this is probably what youre looking for. It plays Gamepass and other systems including Steam natively. The reviews are true about battery life. Its not great. I play plugged in most of the time so its not an issue for me. Expect an hour to 2 hours of battery life. Great system overall though!

I choose you!! GO ROG ALLY!!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I mainly got this device to play my back catalog of games I own. This device will play any game I throw at it just fine. If not than I can stream it easily from my PC but I've yet to have the need for that. I get home from work and the last thing I wanna do is sit at my desk so this was the next best option. I was gonna go with the steam deck but my main catalog of games are spread through Steam and Epic. I don't wanna hassle with anything on Linux so Windows based handheld is the choice for me. It was a really close close close call for this or a steam deck.

Great little gaming system
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Has been great so far! Been able to play all the games I’ve been wanting to play on it. Only wish I was able to buy the system with more than a 500gb HDD. (Upgrading the drive was simple enough however)

Not bad but needs improvements
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not bad, plays most games. Battery sucks so you have to be connected to power most of the times or get a battery bank and maybe get an extra 2 hours.

Plays games well
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Other than windows being jank, it's a great pc handheld! Played my games well and I didn't run into to many issues. The battery could be better and the asus interface needs some finessing, but if it's on sale and you don't already have a pc handheld then this is a great option.

Asus ROG Ally Z1 extreme
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this little guy for a few months now, and it is holding up fantastically. The battery life isn't the best, but I usually have it plugged in so it's not an issue. Overall I would recommend this to others looking for a handheld pc.

Battery life ehhh…
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Battery life is not good. If you want a portable gaming machine to play without being plugged in then buy the Ally x instead. Pretty good performance though.

Best Handheld PERIOD
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down the best handheld ive had in my hands! Performance is next to flawless on just about anything ive thrown at it. Runnin just about every game ive played at 100-130FPS without any problems. Dont let bad reviews from reveiwers that obviously dont know how to use a computer lead you away from this! First thing you should do is hop into the AMD settings software and tweak settings to your liking and boom. this thing becomes a major powerhouse! have had ZERO issues with over heating, zero issues playing any game i could possibly want. Dont hesitate, snag one!

Simply amazing, exactly what i wanted
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I know there have been a ton of people claim defects and issues since day one, and this is my own personal experience, but i haven't had a single issue you yet** knock on wood*. There is a bit of setup that has a learning curve for anyone not firmliar with windows OS, but being a "PC Gamer" im not shy to jumping right into it. There have been no issues with the sdcard reader (I'm using a samsung pro plus), my entire steam library, epic games and gog with a copious amount of roms on it all run smooth. I have no regrets and have no intention of returning my unit.

Asus Republic of Gamers Ally
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Title says it all. You couldnt ask for a better all around handheld. Unlike competitors, you dont have to be stuck with certain OS to run certain programs. This thing is windows 11 and has he flexibility of running different launchers, such as Steam, prime gamin, etc. Only issue I have is that it doesnt have much official accessories made for it yet and it does get hot after a prolonged gaming session with it. Would be easily solved if they could make a fan/cooler attachment like what they have available with their RoG phones

Extremely Happy
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Blows my steam deck out of the water. As long as you treat it as a PC, as far as installing all updates, it has been absolutely wonderful. I'm okay with a 1.5 hours battery due to the performance I get.

Powerful and portable
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have wanted the steam deck for awhile and then followed the ROG ally news. This thing is a beast, its powerful, its mostly quiet, it doesn't run super hot, its comfortable to hold. Runnings full windows to some is a negative but the interface works very well when using the asus software. Battery life is about what you would expect running a portable PC. Diablo 4 for 1.5 hours took me from 100% to 54% (so approximately 3 hours) the charger though gets this thing topped off rather quickly. Oberall my experience has been super positive. Negative reviews seem to be based off the company vs the product. If you want a portable PC this thing is the way to go, the specs alone will make this thing relevant for years.

Great portable gaming machine.
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Considering some mid tier GPUs are $600-700, this is a great buy for portable gaming. I'll probably mostly use it for emulation but it's nice to know I can play modern games on the go with 60+ fps.
