    Not gonna lie takes a lil to set up but once you get it set up and customized/optimized with your expectation. Thing goes hard. Since its a computer its really cool to personalize. Since day one they have been making small firmware updates to armory se. Making games more easier to access. Hope they make more updates.

    Worked great for 1 month, then started freezing figured out the SD card reader stopped working. After I removed the SD card it worked great again, but it no longer reads Micro SD cards also my Micro SD card no longer works. Will send back my Ally for an RMA.

    Amazing device overall but it's a shame that it has the sd card issue that breaks them. If it did not have that it would've been a 5 star from me. If you don't care about the sd card slot highly recommend this device.

    Steam deck changed the handheld pc market with its release and this thing just took that a step farther, obviously a little more than the steam deck price wise, but more opportunities and better tech than SD. Needs some updates and clean the bugs up then it will be solid. Love my steam deck but this thing is awesome.
