Its the bomb
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Read all the reviews about this bad boy and i was a little hesitant at frist but i took a chance on it and it payed off this thing runs every thing I throw at it with little to no problems. The only the i whould say is this thing eats up power. So its best to play plugged in or get a extend power bank.

Asus ROG Ally - 10 Day Review
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a little sceptical on a handheld gaming pc able to play the titles I was wanting to play. However after having this for 10 days I was pleasantly impressed. So impressed that I have not touched my Xbox Series X. While it is still a Windows PC and you deal with the occasional windows issues, it performs beyond my expectations! I love this thing!!

Best Handheld
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far pretty awesome little handheld device. It runs everything I throw at it above 60 FPS with no issues. I recommend this to anyone. I recommend to adjust fan curves in armory crate for those who are afraid of micro SD overheating issues. I did adjust fan curves and haven’t had any issues yet. Installing a new SSD is very very easy.

Recommend you buy, ONLY on sale.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this handheld for my birthday and I think its decent, but after a software update from ASUS there has been a pretty annoying software bug. Whenever you use the Legacy Command Menu that was replaced by a new menu, and you open the menu to switch power options, it bugs the controls and switches between Desktop controls and Gamepad controls and it gets annoying when i'm unable to control my game. Second bug i have notice is when I play a game, at certain random intervals it would boot me to the home screen of Windows. This is only recommended at cheap prices or when on sale.

Portable meets PC
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this device. It is great for most games on her besides the newest games. I can run most of my library on this device. Just keep in mind that it is not a pickup and play game. You have to do a lot of setip like any compute but once you do it is amazing.

Good device.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plays all of my games really well. Setting it up takes awhile but once you’re done everything is really easy. My first device was an open box and one of the bumpers didn’t work but I traded it in for a new one and so far everything works great.

One of the best tech items in the last 20 years
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I passed on the steam deck to wait for this to come out. Just the fact I can play all my PC games with different launchers is a major major major go. Screen is amazing and sound is loud and crisp. Learning curve using armory crate with windows 11. Also the updates were in pieces. After updates you have to into windows and redo your fingerprint.

Great Handheld device
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great hand held system. I play Baldur's Gate 3 on it with the highest graphics and it runs it perfect. I have also played many other games on it and have had no issue with the Alley. I got it on launch day and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Higher performance Deck
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you only play steam games, buy the steamdeck. If you play games on any other platform as well as steam, this is the better option. Better performance at higher clocks. Performance at low wattage lags behind the deck slightly. Runs windows, so you can do whatever your PC can do.

Awesome
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love this device. After a long day of work it's nice to just chill and play some games in bed at solid frame rates. Have not had issues with micro SD card. Make sure to use the Asus application to check for updates and you won't have any issues. Was no more complicated than that for me to get all the necessary updates.

Its not a console, but its not a gaming laptop.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Patience is rewarded, lots of setup and tweaking but pair this with a Nreal air glasses and its so worth it. Just keep charging whenever you take a break it burns through batteries for the nice graphics and fps.

Windows 11 experience advised!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down the most powerful handheld console yet, just held back by Windows bloat and background processes. If you are familiar with Windows 11 gaming then this is for you. If you just want something to pick up and game on the go, the Steam Deck is a better option.

While Windows isn’t quite as smooth as SteamOS, this device FEELS amazing to play on and it allows me to play all of my Game Pass titles, Steam titles, and so much more. Definitely my best purchase this year.
