    Loves it. Unfortunately the sticks stopped working in the Y axis and need replaced. This is after 6 months of use.

    I love my Ally but I know my way around windows and already knew the jank I'd be running into. I recommend the Waterfield case for it.

    Doesn’t live up to the hype. I got nowhere near 8 teraflops while on 45w while plugged in. The screen isn’t bright enough outdoors. The batter only lasts 45-50 minutes on 25w turbo mode. Most games aren’t playable under 25w. Honestly it felt like a standard Ryzen apu. 720p / 35-45 fps.

    I was on the fence for awhile but, I'm glad I made the purchase. It handles Cyberpunk 2077 and Final Fantasy VII Remake like a Champ!

    It's my new gaming everything. You will probably need to RMA it because the SD Card reader likes to commit suicide but other than that its awesome :)

    This thing is awesome but the battery life is ridiculous so if you don't mind buying a good battery brick on Amazon or keeping it plugged in.... you need to get this.

    I have owned the ROG Ally since July. I have not had any SD card issues. Anyone with a history of PC gaming will feel at home or atleast not get as frustrated. I did not find the Ally difficult or lengthy to setup. Optimizing/customizing? That took forever, and that is not a gripe, but more of a hats off to ASUS! The support has been good the updates that most of us questioned ever happening? Have Happend! The ROG Ally can be as battery friendly as you want. It can be as monstrous as you want to with no pointless caps on power and battery like the competitors. Great job ASUS!
