    I got this cause I am a truck driver and can't always been at the computer. So far it is awesome, my PC has been retired for about two weeks. It is running windows 11 so it takes a bit to set up out of the box. It is ok not plugged in, runs my games no problems. I still leave it plugged in almost treat it like a laptop.

    The ROG Ally is a great portable gaming PC, being able to play games like Cyberpunk 2077, Jedi Survival, Starfield, Forza Horizon 5, Hogwarts Legacy among many other AAA games on the go natively is just amazing, also its just perfect for emulation, you won't regret it.

    I was skeptical about after owning a steam deck and being dissapointed. But this is a whole other ballpark. I was able to play any of my games at reasonable settings and get respectable fps. I can completely recommend this without hesitation.

    Loving it so far, runs everything I throw at it, only issue is the software, sometimes things don’t work so I have to restart it. Nice, portable, if you create a custom profile, you can max it out and the two fans make it run at 60 degrees, nice and cool.

    Overall great product, only a few hiccups here and there when first getting it set up for the first time, but after playing around and playing with settings, games run beautifully and very few issues (other than Bethesda magic) but system stability is great and I've been having a great experience with the device

    What the rog ally does with windows to make it a portable experience is really good. Like all new things it takes time to get used to. I had a steam deck when it first launched, enjoyed every bit of it. Yes some things you cannot do on linux but it was still a great experience. Now going to the ally for the first time as a windows user was so easy. They really took some time and polished the handheld experience on windows. I would say if your a windows user, then the rog ally is simple to get started with gaming on windows on the go.

    Solid device however during use it can be difficult to use the keyboard. Overall worth it’s price tag if you’re looking for a small portable gaming device.

    While some individuals have faces issues with their Ally, I have had none whatsoever; Albeit I have not attempted to insert an SD card as I have not found it to be necessary yet. Otherwise, the performance of the Ally is to be admired, and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an impressive handheld gaming device.

    This machine has exceeded my expectations. I have been taking it with me for the last 2 weeks and have been impressed. The graphics are great, the ability to modify the system like a standard windows device is a nice bonus

    As a truck driver I absolutely love this thing. I’m constantly on the go and on the move and rarely am home. With this I no longer have to struggle with bringing my counsel back and fourth to my truck. This I just toss it in my bag and can play the games that I play with ease!

    I was looking for something with performance of a console, portability and simplicity of a console. This checks all those boxes. I give the simplicity aspect a 7.5 out of 10 because its a Windows device, but I can easily see that as new updates rollout simplcity will only increase. This is a must buy for the gamer on the go.
