I love this little thing!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had my rog for about 3 weeks now and I absolutely love it. I'm not really a PC person - at least not right now - so getting a rog makes a ton of sense as my other "nintendo switch". I've also expanded the internal SSD so now I have approximately 2TB of storage instead of the original storage amount, and that makes a ton of difference! It does what it says and that's a wonderful thing. After upgrades and updates, I can control my mouse freely with my right stick and some keys - that's a nice little touch. If you happen to grab one that's open box but in great condition - like I did - it's 100% worth the money.

Good handheld with some nigs
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wanted a portable hand held computer to play games and figured they this. Takes a why'll to setup because of lots updates. There's some glitches I'm it and have to be patient with some games to load. But overall very happy with it. Lots videos on how to twerk it and get beat out of it. Still lots to learn but if you want something to play games why'll away from computer or console I recommend this device. Hope on time gets to work as good as my consoles

Great Performance
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Outperforms other handhelds like the steam deck and has an amazing screen. Only downside is not great battery life when in performance mode.

Good handheld device
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall a great device. If you want a device with no restrictions and no compatible issues and with awesome power for a handheld then this if for you. just beware of normal windows problems. Don't expect to have a smooth console like experience with this device like the steamdeck. There are lots of pros with this device as well as lots of cons. Just be sure that the pros outweight the cons for your specific use case.

Goodbye steam deck, you were loved.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Prior steam deck owner. Currently listing the steam deckok ebay. This thing is so versatile. Pair it with an xg mobile and it can be a main machine, plays vr, can do productivity work, and can obviously do handheld gaming. Speakers are loud and clear. Display is fantastic, though i wish it had oled because i love oled. Some folks complain about windows being clunky with touchscreen, this is true, however you can use steam big picture mode or playnite in fullscreen to launch games just fine. Definitely worth checking out. Oh and if white isnt your jam, just skin it. I got a camo skin on mine from m2skins. Last minor gripe, only one usb c port. Would have liked to see at least a usb a as well.

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!

Asus Rog Ally
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its been a complete game changer. Being able to play current titles anywhere i go, it was worth every dime. From taking it on flights to playing Diablo 4 while on work trip. Absolutely recommend.

Really good handheld!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It could be so much better. I’m giving a 4 because overall it is a good handheld overall and I like it over the steam deck. But it is buggy at times I have to reload games a couple times for them to actually load. Sound profile is good for a handheld device. And games look really good. I’m hoping they work out some of the bugs cause it is really a great handheld. And for the price it is a competitor to a lot of the windows based handhelds out there!! I am very satisfied with the Ally I upgraded the nvme and added an SD card and they do work flawlessly!

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.

Btter than the steam deck.. sort of.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ended up selling my steam deck to a friend after getting the ROG Ally, but it wasnt exactly an easy choice. The ally is awesome because it supports more than just steam games like the steam deck natively does, but unfortunately windows on a handheld is still not really great. While the steam deck has strange issues like sometimes just not powering on and then needing an update out of nowhere The ally has all kinds of other issues like the game center just not working sometimes and also the keyboard being a little well bad. If all you care about is performance and playing games on something other than just steam get an ally, otherwise you might be better off just getting 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)

Great for Gamers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have all the consoles, a desktop and a laptop PC so I'm familiar with gaming on Windows. The original setup is easy if you rememner it's a hand held PC. I recommend hooking the Ally up to a docking station to run windows updates, install steam, game pass etc. and after that you will be ready to roll. Price is great when on sale, and I hear the SD card slot overheats and destroys your SD cards. Those are my only reasons for 4 stars and not 5. Oh and yes it plays Modern Warfare III.

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.
