Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the best handheld console I ever used. I love the way I can play all my steam and Xbox games in the go, even though the storage is a problem, I still manage to download the games I want to play on the go.

I have steam deck, but its better steam deck, just battery may need more, very noce play, just cant play too long.

Its the best handheld gaming device i have ever used. Perfect for demanding games and Perfect for retro and emulation. The system feels great and its design is beautiful. The rog z1 Extreme is a masterpiece

I love this unit. I realize it's not for everyone as it's based on Windows 11. However, I supported Windows for 25 years in my career and my desktops, laptops, and tablets are all based on Windows so this works for me. Because it's essentially a handheld PC I can run Xbox Game Pass, EA Play, Steam, Ubisoft, and more on it. They have a nice interface to give you quick access to the apps you've installed. It responds very well, has okay battery life, and feels comfortable in my hands.

The ROG Ally is an excellent on the go PC that is similar to the steam deck. the interface and controller setting does take some getting used to and its unique interface and setting system armory is a helpful tool to adapt the controller to any game. As somebody who is generally skeptical on new handhelds, this is a positive experience and smoothly plays a variety of games in a quality performance. This is an excellent PC to help you work on going through your backlog of games on the go.

I have played mostly light weight games with the ROG Ally and it has been mostly a good experience. The first one I got had a bad joystick but I was able to get it exchanged for one with no issues. The only other issue I have had with this device is that when you put it to sleep the rgb joystick rings will flash occasionally. Using hibernation mode in windows works fine however. Overall in the 10s of hours I have used the ROG Ally Z1 extreme, I have enjoyed using the device and have been able to play the games I wanted to play on it.

Bought a asus ally z1 extreme. Coming from steam deck it blows the gpu power and screen quality! But i find windows 11 not that easy to use from controls and instaling games. :( the sad part is the battery it only lasted 50mins on forza horizon 5 or 2 fortnite battle and 18% left from 95% If your a techy type of guy this one is for you. Kudos to bestbuy for having awesome customer service!

Gaming on the go !runs fast and clear . Make sure to update

Amazing portable gaming PC. Running on windows makes the experience not great but games run amazing well.

I've thoroughly enjoyed this product. I recommend it to anyone considering Steam Deck.

One of the best PC handheld on the market and at a affordable price point

Processor is lovely but battery life not so great.

The ASUS ROG Ally really surprises due to its performance on gamming, but also serving as a mobile personal computer. I couldn't recommend it more!!!

Has a few hardware problems with the sd card reader but it's fairly easy to upgrade the Internal drive and replace the sticks when they go bad so it gets points for repairability in other stuff

I bought this for my teenage son. He was looking at the Steam Deck but a lot of his favorite games are not on the Steam platform. After reading many reviews and comparisons for both sysytems i decided to go with this one. My son absolutely lives ut. He carries it around all through the house. It has great graphics, great battery life, great storage, and even more impressive operating speed. There isn't a game he has tried that didn't work flawlessly. Absolutely worth the money.

Get this. Set up is initially cumbersome because its basically a pc but once you get passed that, it out perfones in every way except battery life.

Good handheld for light games. Needs a lot of tweaking if you want to run demanding games and end up having to use lower graphics settings. Battery isnt all that great but it is a gaming computer in the size of a handheld. Ended up returning after seeing so many SD card port problems. My unit wasnt affected but it was only a matter of time.

My husband sold his steam deck because he likes this device a lot more. He can play almost all his games on this. He plays it every day. No complaints at all.

Lots of fun playing Xbox games as you go. I wish the battery would power the system longer.

The ROG Ally is the best handheld on the market. While Windows isn’t quite as smooth as SteamOS, this device FEELS amazing to play on and it allows me to play all of my Game Pass titles, Steam titles, and so much more. Definitely my best purchase this year.
