    I really love this thing. It’s the ultimate Xbox Gamepass machine. I ended up selling my custom built desktop gaming pc after getting this. I work at the same desk all day so having the freedom to play games elsewhere around my house feels freeing. It might not be for everyone but it definitely is for me.

    I’m a huge gamer with all the consoles (PS5, XBOX, Switch) but I’m also a new dad and the ROG ally has been perfect for me as it lets me game through streaming and PC GamePass while still spending time with my wife and kids anywhere in the house and during travels.

    This is a very good handheld as long as you realize the power comes with poor battery life. You will have your regular windows bugs since its basically a mini pc. The price is very good for the power that you get. If you want an xbox handheld this is the closest you will probably get.

    This this is a little powerhouse. I tend to lean more towards portable gaming and the Ally gets me everything from Steam, to Windows, to Xbox, and then some. Add a small dock and you basically have a more versatile Switch. I highly recommend the ROG Ally.

    The Ally feels good in hand and the speakers are the best of all the current handheld gaming PC systems. I also like that the power button has a fingerprint reader. It just would have been nice to have a trackpad like the Deck and Legion Go have.

    I had the steam deck, and it struggled to play the games that were verified and was very choppy. I picked up the extreme model of the ally and with the higher ram and better cpu it plays all the games I enjoy very well. Also its a very customizable device. If you want a good portable gaming device this is a really good one.

    Best Handheld Ever

    When I got my steam deck last year I was blown away at what the device could when it came to running nor only new games but emulation. After spending a little over a week with the Rog Ally, it makes tge dwck obsolete, just like the steam deck made the switch obsolete. What a beast of a handheld and also a beautiful one as well. And it will only get better with time.
