Best handheld on the market hands down! Makes this a perfrct mobile pc replacement with a bunch of accessories available as well!! Cant wait for future handhelds!!

Performance is very solid and allows most games to be played at medium settings or better. The feel is quite sturdy and reliable. Very happy with this purchase.

It was a bit confusing at first for us, but once we got used to it, my son has loved it for gaming. We bought it as a travel Xbox for him.

Great handheld system. The ROG Ally is just an amazing piece of work. I am able to play pretty much all my games comfortably without any issues. Plug and play and I am good to go. Did I mention that this is a full blown PC!?! The ROG ally is a laptop that you can play games, listen to music, watch Netflix, live events, browse the web and do work if need. I believe the Ally is best used for travel away from home or if you're home without access to the console or gaming PC. Do not hesitate to buy especially to be used as a luxury secondary gaming device instead of the a primary. In my case I have a PC with an RTX 4090 and when I am out I can play anything.

The specs for this device are amazing. When it works, it works great! I understood buying a Windows device would have some learning curves, but ASUS doesnt do any favors with its software packages. I shouldn’t have to use three or four apps to update the entire system. Battery life is decent considering games like Elden Ring run at 40+ fps. You can tweak things around and obtain longer battery life. Several YouTube videos and third party apps later all the settings line up to make the device perform like ASUS software should have. Overall, if you dont mind to tinker this thing is great. If you want “console like plug and play” the Steam Deck would be better.

Purchased this for my husband since he LOVES to game when we were about to have our little girl so he had something to do in the hospital! One of the best gaming consoles he ever owns!

If you need a gaming PC that can run every game at minimum 60 FPS plus being extremely portable then you should buy this. Incredible product that needs some firmware updates to be perfect.

This thing runs most games youd expect amazingly. I love using it as a GamePass machine. I also use it for GEForce Now which supports streaming at 120fps. The screen is whag completes the package, but the way it feels and holds is comfier than a steamdeck. CON- Windows 11. Yeah. Also SD card issues. Asus repaired mine free of charge but be aware this mah come up. I also had an issue thag causes fhe right speaker to be extfa soft. Asus also fixed that. So iverall great package but beware.

Battery life is not blvery good, but device is powerful . It can play most triple A games at least 60fps.

This is literally a portable pc in your hands!! It’s super fast and there absolutely no lag while you are playing your games!! 10/10 recommend

Perfect size easy to take on go. Very user friendly. My ehole family has one and we can play games together.

It's a very good product it just had a few minor inconveniences. One being having to configure the controller scheme on every single game, you really have to fine tune it and mess with alot of buttons just for one game so when you go to another you have to configure it all again. It does save two profiles, gamepad and desktop but it seems like you can't even switch between each or it's really finicky. But besides that it has it's **** near as powerful as my desktop w/ DL speeds of almost 1g a second so very good there and the screen looks amazing. Also the joysticks and buttons feel great and are nice to use it's only the configuring I have a problem with.

This little thing is a beast. The only downside is battery life. It’s quick and easy to use. The upgraded processor is the way to go if you can splurge that much more.

The ASUS software for the Ally is a bit buggy, but it gets the job done for the power it has. The iGPU is in the Z1 Extreme is about as powerful as a 1650-Mobile Max-Q. I'm waiting for the ROG Ally 2 to come out in late 2024, with supposedly 33% more compute units in the iGPU of the next APU. It'll be up to 50% more powerful than the current Ally and by then the ASUS software bugs should be mostly cleared out, hopefully.

This device Is amazing for the price I got it for my only complain about it, is the short battery life but it's not the biggest deal. Id recommend this device to anyone who just wants to lounge around the house

Love the device - it is not as powerful as a PC - want to stress this!! It runs alot of games great if you run them on lower settings!! Dont expext to run graphic intesive games with out some lag but overall i live it ran Spiderman Series was a blast, rum APEX no priblem awesome device!!

I will lead with my final appraisal of this device while it was working as that feels more fair than just the bad end result of my purchase. After several hours uninstalling, updating, tweeking, learning, and then finally gaming I loved the Ally. I pulled down a consistent 90+ fps in Diablo 4 with some of the settings maxed but most low or off. No heat issues, no lag, no stutter. Ran well and is more than acceptable for a portable PC gaming experience. Marauders would always crash after a few seconds in the menus, Rocket League played well with no issues, Hell Let Loose seemed serviceable and looked fine to me with no crazy FPS dips or tearing. All in all the devoce is more than a solid portable gmaing option. At the price point and with the AMD eGPU total cost gets up to a gaming laptops. Whether a laptop is a better fit for you than this device is up to you? I wouod say that if the Ally has an inch or 2 more of screen real-estate I'd be in love. Heck its probaly not too hard to get a 3D printed mount for a ln iPad or tablet to sit ontop of the Ally and still hold the controller part behind it to game on a nicer bigger screen? Idk. Gotta return mine unfortunately. 1st impression was that I was returning the Ally because it didnt meet my expectations off the rip. Fast forward about 8 hours of hands on playing and tweeking while connected to the supplied power source in a 65° AC with the onboard fans wide open. I get an error message while playing Diablo at 1080p that says I "ran out of memory." It forces a restart and thwn my device simply never powers back on. No leds when plugged in or docked, non when not. No button combination forces a reboot or anything. Just a brick now. There are non in stock within an hour+ of me and the Best Buy I shop at is already 45 minutes away. Also the storage is lacking. The SD slot did work with no issues for me but is an outdated medium if you ask me.

Great device for gaming, it doesn’t necessarily make gaming ‘portable’ because you will want it plugged in for the best performance and to play longer than an hour.. I use mine for a few different games Beamng drive, world of Warcraft …it works really good for most games however games like wow that aren’t fully optimized will occasionally freeze, do a black screen and resume eventually but it can be really frustrating ..addons like consoleport make it a seamless experience outside of that though..

The best Windows-based gaming handheld on the market. VRR, 1080p, small and light. Awesome little device, especially if you're familiar with gaming on Windows PCs.

What an amazing handheld PC this is I can take my Gaming on the go and play my Xbox Games through cloud gaming as well as Steam games for PC best purchase I ever made highly recommended for players that like to play on the go.
