    Awesome Device if You Know Your Way Around Windows

    This is a powerful device that plays most AAA games well. If you're not a PC gamer, it's going to take research and patience to get this thing tweaked to how you like it. If you're not a Windows user period, you're going to have a very tough time. Once you come to terms with both of those, the use case and performance of this thing is incredible. There's definitely some quality issues out there with so much plastic, but if you don't run into any quality control issues, this thing is a pleasure to use.

    I love my ROG Ally. After owning the steam deck, I was really itching for that experience but with a handheld that had a bit more power to it. Besides the minor tweaks to get the Ally where you want I have no complaints to this point with this device. Although after only a short time my SD card slot did not work like most other reviewers are saying. I am able to upgrade the storage but feel like the SD card is where the Ally failed.

    So far this windows device has been pretty good, have not had any issues out of it so far. Excepted a bit of freezing here and there, the frame rate is pretty soild also the system is very responsive which is great, I also like the different modes you can choose from which are desktop, consoles mode and touch so far i am impressed the product. One last thing is the system’s heats up the screen whixh makes it very hot, it can be a bit noisy at rime just the fans.

    This thing is amazing, IF you get a good model and you can figure your way around windows. I’m coming from a steam deck and mostly play plugged in, if you want this to be portable you should reconsider or get a battery bank. Other than that it’s powerful and after some tweaks can float around 75c and stay in VRR for almost any game you would want to play.

    This thing is fantastic, plays all my AAA games in low-med settings at 45+ even 60+ fps depending on the game. It is quite a bit more involved than other "consoles" but if you have a bit of windows knowledge it's very easy to setup and use. Definitely consider upgrading to 1TB SSD.

    This product is amazing: simply the best gaming handshild available today. Others has bigger and havier screens and not as polish as this device is. Windows 11 is an advantage specialy for productivity you have a portable desktop computer you can take and do everything you can do on a desktop. The best of all bestbuy open box item already on sale under 500 dollars. It only gets better.

    This has been a great device. It’s my favorite for retro handheld gaming. I also have played Hogwarts Legacy on it and it plays very well. For the more powerful games it is better to play plugged in to get the most power out it. They still play well in the battery as well. You won’t be disappointed with the Ally

    This device is a great gaming system. It comes with a full copy of windows so it can also be a great tool for productivity. Pair the device with bluetooth keyboard and mouse and grab a portable display and you have a workstation on the go! Have spent many hours travelling with this setup and it literally has lead me to invest in a desktop for home and remove laptops altogether.

    Its a good product, however I wish it had a longer battery life. There is also an issue with the sd card readers on most of the rog allys that fries sd cards I haven't personally tried an sd card on mine since 512gb is plenty for what I use it for.

    Been using it to game and as a pc since January. Played almost every game on pc gamepass with this. Can play some very demanding games on this with low settings. With a good usb c hub, m&k and 100w gan charger and monitor/tv this device works well as a pc replacement.

    Most of the reviews describe how this is for gaming, but I find it to be a very portable and powerful computèr for on the go 3D scanning and 3D printing using Cura. It would be nice to have another usb port and a longer battery, however, battery life can be extended to about 7 hours in the Silent mode. Programs can be run on the Ally like Duet to create a 2 screen setup with an Ipad.
