Surpasses expectations!

Stopped Reading my Micro SD Card
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Ally is able to play the games I normally play on my PC, just need to lower the video quality to lowest to make them playable. Feels good to hold and the device is quiet when playing games, even in turbo mode. I gave it a 3 start because it stopped reading my micro SD card after less than 2 weeks of use. I wasn’t using this device that often. This is frustrating because this is practically new.

Great Potential with a fatal flaw
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I have owned this device for about 2 months before I had to return it. If you are looking for a steam deck with more power built on windows, this is your device. I was able to download and play gamepass games easily. Same with steam. This thing has so mich power to throw at games for a handheld, it’s insane. Especially when plugged in. Unfortunately, there is a fatal flaw. This device can break your sd card with heat, and possibly even the sd card reader on the device. This is what happened to me, and many others. So much so that Asus put out a statement about it. I wanted this to work. It is an amazing device. But i can not recommend it when its breaking people’s sd cards.

Great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been using it since the release, this little laptop thing handles games beautifully, allows me to revisit some of the games I’d rather not to play on the big screen.

Not bad but needs a little more time
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First thing, this is not a “PC” replacement at all. So it’s good to start with that to temper expectations. If your doing a bit of light gaming on the go or while you’re doing other things this is probably a good idea for you. But if your looking for something to play your favorite games as a PC replacement this isn’t it chief. This puts out a lot of heat and would benefit from active cooling.

I would recommend this to a friend Best handheld on the market
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing has so much potential. If houre looking for a handheld. Any ally will do
I would recommend this to a friendNice compliment to the steamdeck
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device is nice for games that dont work on the steamdeck. Good for xbox game pass games and technically you can ise it has a pc if you want. Just plug in the additoonals cables and/or a mouse and keyboard. Some games dont plag as nice as they do on the steamdeck. Its usually a controller issue that couod probably work if you mess the mappings long enoigh. Steamdeck is definitely better in that area.
