Surprisingly good performance
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this device on sale to be able to connect to my television and play PC games. So far the performance available in such a small package has exceeded my expectations with games both looking better and playing smoother than anticipated.

Not bad for an open box special
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like the title says, not bad for an open box special. The only main concerns that I have is that: 1. It seems to go a bit slow every now and then 2. The SD card doesn't always read, but reads fine in my laptop. Leading me to believe that it is a problem with the Ally, not the SD card Other than those two problems, my daughter and I love it

A good buy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the thought process overall of the device, and well executed. The only issue is the battery life. I am still using it for both work and entertainment, regardless of me having to charge it if i play “Cyberpunk 2077” or “Baldur’s Gate 3”. Good battery life if you are playing older gen games like “Persona 5” or “Final Fantasy XV”.

better battery needed!!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is what it says. The battery life is the worst thing about this. other than that it ran Fortnite, apex, and rainbow very well with fps. a good nightstand to watch Netflix or YouTube. not portable though due to battery life. the joystick trigger dead zone are terrible as well.

ROG Ally
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Incredibly happy with the ally. Its a cross between a laptop and a gaming tablet. Its very obviously geared towards PC gamers, so if you arent familiar with steam or windows gaming, it'll be a little difficult as its not made like a nintendo switch. If youre willing to put the effort in to learn it, its an awesome handheld that you can also use as a mobile PC if you connect a wireless keyboard and mouse.

Great with a serious flaw
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product is great if it can fix the sdcard issue. I have played for several hours after which the sdcard first fails then it breaks the motherboard. I like the performance upto that point. All the major games I play, were working great. The controller position is also perfect.

ROG Ally
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The portabke computer aspect is fantastic but imthe initsl start of having to uodate drivers and systems was a bit off putting. Having to soend time watching videos to get the right drivers after the initial install was a slight oain but not too bad. The main “flaw” is just the batteryblife, after about over an hour of game play the system is out of battery life.

Performance powehouse!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid upgrade performance wise from the steam deck. Play at 720p, upscale to 1080p and it runs mostly everything with medium or higher settings /30fps. Vrr low cap can also be changed easily from 45fps to 30fps. Battery life isnt great, as to be expected 1hr 25w. Display is excellent, controls feel very nice, and the machine is about as lousd as a gaming laptop under medium load.

Rog ally is alright
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its a good product, however I wish it had a longer battery life. There is also an issue with the sd card readers on most of the rog allys that fries sd cards I haven't personally tried an sd card on mine since 512gb is plenty for what I use it for.

The stepping stone to handheld PC gaming
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After several software patches and hot fixes, the Ally is finally deserving of the title of king of handheld PC gaming. The Steam Deck is cute and has a strong, applaudable, focus on compatibility, but having the Ally to fill in gaps with things like Xbox Cloud Gaming, all the non-compatible Steam games, and games from other launchers, sells it. The only con is Windows-related and boot issues, which one can only hope is fixed in time with software.

Great product
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far this windows device has been pretty good, have not had any issues out of it so far. Excepted a bit of freezing here and there, the frame rate is pretty soild also the system is very responsive which is great, I also like the different modes you can choose from which are desktop, consoles mode and touch so far i am impressed the product. One last thing is the system’s heats up the screen whixh makes it very hot, it can be a bit noisy at rime just the fans.

Powerful Computer
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Most of the reviews describe how this is for gaming, but I find it to be a very portable and powerful computèr for on the go 3D scanning and 3D printing using Cura. It would be nice to have another usb port and a longer battery, however, battery life can be extended to about 7 hours in the Silent mode. Programs can be run on the Ally like Duet to create a 2 screen setup with an Ipad.
