    Excellent product! It works as a small but powerful PC. It's boring to stay in front of the monitor to play games. ROG Ally is the best product in the market. I enjoy playing using it.

    A really portable PC only problem is that it get really hot. But is more for a shooter game. RTS games play nice like StarCraft 2

    Amazing on the go computer with some serious power. Besides being white , that can easily get dirty it’s a portable computer to hook up to be anything you want it to be , a gaming console or a full blown working PC for work !

    I really like this device. I use to have a steam deck and I will say in some cases it is better. Just be ready to sit next to an outlet at times.

    Absolutely love it. Has helped me enjoy gaming again in 2023. Haven't touched my gaming PC in weeks because of it. Zero problems what's so ever! Word of advice, ignore the subreddit when making a decision to purchase lol.

    The thing is an absolute powerhouse, I'm able to run anything I want with pretty decent graphics, it really makes me want Sony to release a actual PSP in the form of a handheld like this.

    If you want to online game with steam but don’t have the money to spend on a full blown pc. This is a good start, can handle all new games and runs very well.

    I think the specs on this are amazing and I do enjoy gaming in it but the technology is not there for battery life. It almost negates the idea of being handheld. Only con but it is a big one.

    Easily worth the price tag, if you're looking for a great way to play PC games on the go, or if you're like me and you enjoy emulation, this is the way to go, it has just the right processing power, and you can customize it

    The device basically works. The pro of having windows is also the main issue with it. A lot of the issues i have are due to the fact that I don't want to tinker with the device in order to get my games running well. I also don't like touching the screen, which is absolutely necessary unless you have a keyboard and mouse connected. I suppose I was looking for an experience similar to the Steam Deck. The Ally isn't near as user friendly, and for a device that runs windows, it's really cumbersome to operate with joysticks and buttons. My biggest complaint though is the VRR. For a device that has a 120hz screen and VRR, the implementation is awful. Your games will stutter if the framerate drops below 90fps even with VRR enabled. It's really unfortunate, and I haven't heard anyone else address this issue, but it's there. I really hope ASUS continues to update the device, because it does have potential. It just feels unfinished right now. Couple that with the difficulty of using windows with a touchscreen and controller, and it's not a pleasant experience. However, if you don't mind fiddling with it, you'll probably love it. It is powerful, and not constrained by Steam OS, so a fair amount of games I've wanted to play on the Deck but couldn't, are fully playable on the Ally. If they would fix the VRR if possible, that would be great. That and the framerate limiter which at the time of this review still doesn't work properly.

    The ally has been absolutely fantastic, and aside from windows issues has bed without problems. The internal memory is sufficient for a few AAA games and plenty more. It runs Dying Light 2 with no issues.
