It’s mobile game
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has some corks but overall works great for a mobile gaming experience. Don’t expect a desktop experience but works great as a mid tier console and since the screen is smaller you can run games at a lower setting without noticing a huge drop off in quality.

Travel fun
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got an “open box” didn’t seem to be opened at all. Totally worth the price! Battery is lacking, but a nice first gen product.

Not bad for a first try. I'd wait for v2
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked great for about a month but then I started running into issues. My SD card reader died. Wouldn't detect any cards I tried. Exchanged it at BB and hoped that was just a one time thing. My second one had issues with the fingerprint reader and would blue screen. I wiped the OS and started from scratch and things worked better. Unfortunately, the SD card reader died on my second Ally. BB offered to exchange it but I decided to return it instead. It's a pretty good attempt for a rev 1 product but it has flaws. I also don't like that the eGPU option they provide uses a proprietary connection. I ended up getting another windows handheld with an oculink port and used a GPU I had from a previous build. I hope Asus stick with the product and release another one in a year or so with non-proprietary connections and more RAM (16 is not enough, my new handheld has 64).

ROG Ally> Steam Deck
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Game changer for handhelds for sure….yes it’s got windows 11 but haven’t found many issues (uninstall OneDrive immediately!) I love having all games/launchers in one place. The Ally is powerful had to get used to the ergonomics compared to the Deck but now that I have I’m having a blast with it. If you don’t wanna spend 1000+ for a powerful windows handheld that’s still very impressive just get the Ally.

Great Purchase, highly recommended
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ASUS ROG Ally is a great buy, beautiful screen, responsive and snappy touchscreen. The buttons function well (though they are a touch sensitive for my taste) and i do recommend it as a viable alternative for the steam deck. I prefer it to the steam deck though the ergonomics could be better as there isnt enough of a curve on thr grips on this system to hold onto in my opinion.

Rog Alley, Get you one!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my Rog Alley. Unfortunately it needed a repair from a bad motherboard and software update but since I got it back it works like a champ! It syncs to my surface book 2 which is a plus for pictures music etc, Xbox for cloud games and downloads. Lightweight and easier to handle than some of the other handhelds I tried. Great purchase for me!!

Good for on the go
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I take this everywhere with me. It can play every game I have at around 90fps if I change the graphics settings in game. I would buy a power bank if you arent planning on being plugged into a wall.

Great alternative to the steam deck
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Simpler to use than a steam deck and I own one, If your the person who wants to just turn on and play with no hassle this is for you, I usually play by an outlet so I'm not too concerned with battery life. The screen is awesome most games im around 50-80 frames Medium settings, Overall Its good for my usecase.

Rog Ally. Can’t recommend.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Joysticks feel pretty loose with their accuracy. Very floaty. Battery on anything more than a emulator is maybe 45 minutes. Spent more time In settings trying to get a playable frame rate in risk of rain 2, 7 days to die, or csgo. Touch screen is good. However the keyboard does not auto pop up when you use the mouse function on the joystick. Great for emulators but at that rate you’re better off with your phone as the battery will last longer. Wish I had more good to say about this thing. But the 120hz display can’t be used if you want more than 30m of playtime. Don’t get me wrong I came into this not expecting pc performance and was still underwhelmed.

But if you are using it to do some casual gaming while away from home or on a road trip or something like that you will be very satisfied with this product.
