Great hand held pc. Plays Starfield perfect. Only wish they had a larger ssd but it’s super easy to replace it with a larger one.

My experience with Best buy has always been supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!! The employees there always know the information I ask about the products I'm trying to buy which results in me buying. This Rog ally has played everything I've installed on it and bought have I tested it. I got it for my birthday and haven't regretted it at all. If you are used to playing Windows games then you are going to be right at home.

Device is beautiful and feels good in the hands. Performance is good but still has some bugs that needs to be addressed and windows 11 sometimes makes it impossible to use. Battery life is terrible, specially if you want to play AAA games on the go. Probably need to wait some time to see if it improves with software updates but overall is a great device

This handle Pc is amazing I’m enjoying playing lots of my AAA game titles that I loved on the ps5 and Xbox man does this thing does its job well with those games I was impressed with what it had to offer and I really had to buy this device and see for my self and it delivered 10/10 for me

It's everything I was hoping it would be, lots of aftermarket stuff for it to, i bought a dock, a d brand case for it and it plays games great, the fan is a little noisy but all in all well worth the price i got it for. I paid $450

I LOVE this thing. I also have a Steam deck and wanted to try this because I play Xbox games. The screen is so much better than the Steam Deck and I actually understand Windows vs Linux. Its just built entirely for a different consumer than the Steam Deck and that consumer is me. I would not hesitate if you have the cash and are looking to get into handheld gaming and want to play games outside of the Steam ecosystem easily.

I have had the Rog since the day it was released frim Best Buy and I love it. Mind you I am coming ftom 100% console play, therefore never really been into PC gaming. I could never really get into the aspect of gaming from a gaming PC, even knowing they have better preference. Therefore after months of research I went with the Rog over the Steam Deck. My reason was based on overall the Rog has less limitations than the competition at a great price. Ive read countless nitpicky reviews from PC gamers that leaves me asking why they just didnt stick to PC.

I'm very happy with my Ally. It handles all my games perfectly, runs smoothly, and looks beautiful with the lighting effects. I did upgrade the SSD for more storage, and I followed an Asus tutorial to do that and it was super easy. I highly recommend it to gamers who enjoy handheld consoles like the Switch, but want to play a wider variety of games with mods and custom content. It's awesome, I highly recommend!

Good performance for a handheld PC. Supporting software is not perfect but very good and almost convinces that this is a viable handheld gaming device. Poor battery life as a Windows PC. Terrible battery life as a handheld gaming device. SD card is susceptible to overheating by design. Inefficient when you want battery life.

Absolutely great product, yes battery could be better, but for weight and size perfectly acceptable.

Good device and does what it's supposed to do. Knocked off a five star because best buy sent me a code that is invalid for game pass and I'm pretty upset about that.

Picked this up on a recent sale. Absolutely one of the best choices I have made. It can play most of my pc games with ease and it's so convenient. Upgrading the SSD was easy, and adding a USB C dock, wireless keyboard/mouse made gaming from my bed easy.

Specs, size, sound quality, weight, power. Best in class. Only con is the slightly lesser battert life compared to others.

After owning a Steam deck for the past year, I’ve been extremely pleased with the ability to play games that were off limits on the deck. I’m familiar with Windows for gaming, but mostly a Mac user. I’ve been very pleased with how well the Rog Ally works given the normal exceptions you need to make for Windows. Yes, there are more updates and tweaking necessary than a more closed platform, but as usual with Windows, you get maximum flexibility and ALL the options. I’ve enjoyed my time with the Rog Ally so far, and would definitely recommend it.

Great for on the go gaming or playing at home on the dock. If you already have a gaming pc then this is definitely a luxury item you may not need, but if you're looking for your first gaming rig and want something portable (and the highest graphics settings arent a requirement for you.) This is the perfect set up imo. Easy to use interface, simple set up, and the best part is being able to pay games across multiple platforms, not just steam. And upgrading the ssd is a snap.

I bought to play on different games on different launchers. Works great with both epic games and steam. It is the perfect handheld.

The Ally is a pretty neat little device. As more updates roll out this thing will have the optimization I think many gamers are looking for. Compared to the Alienware or the ROG Big Rig I custom built it can handle solid 1080P graphics and I average 70-80 fps on the really GPU intense games like Dead Island or CP2077. The option to dock it and connect keyboard and mice through Bluetooth is nice. If you are trying to game on a budget I would recommend this. If you are looking for something a little more powerful for the price point stick with a Ps5.

Love this thing. it has definitely been one of my best purchases. I bought the asus adapter from best buy also and together I have a gaming pc and regular computer for regular tasks. Love this thing.

Overall its a great device my only problem is the battery life isnt great thats all

[Employee of bestbuy] This console REALLY needs an extra heatsink, because it will get VERY hot on the back while its in Turbo Mode, and the only way to get higher than 30fps is to be in Turbo Mode. Works great for being a portable windows device, but many of the higher end games will only run at 60fps if you keep the resolution at 720p.
