Review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really loved this for my boyfriend considering we travel a lot due to his job. He is able to bring it everywhere he goes considering it’s a smaller device compared to a ps5 or an Xbox. I definitely would rate this product a 10/10 ⭐️

Asus rog ally, more than a handheld
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This handheld is more than a console, is a personal computer with the capacity to run all your favorite games. His only deficiency could be the “limited” storage capacity, but nothing a decent microSD can’t fixed it.

Lights.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was nervous after seeing all of the complaints about bugs, but after using it for nearly a month now, I can say that this device is phenomenal. As someone who owns a Steam Deck I can say that this is a much better device. Also the lights around the thumb sticks are really cool.

Ally Z1 Extreme

Good but battery intensive
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Basically useless unless you’re going to keep it plugged in. For traveling where you will have a plug this works great. Plays any game I’ve tried.

Great device, but not for FPS titles
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall the device is very powerful. I can run modern titles like Cod mw3 or Cyberpunk 2077 with a few adjustments. Also the display is gorgeous and the audio on board is surprisingly crisp and even cover lsup the fan noise at medium volume. The low rating is due the the joysticks. They are flimsy at best and lack any response making FPS games unplayable if you want to be remotely competitive. I had to return the device due to this issue. For all other games that don’t require much precision this device is highly recommended.

Its pretty mid
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Having had a steam deck for a few days and comparing it to this, steam deck does everything 10 times better from the basic initial setup to the UI. The full windows experience on this thing is so mid, and controls are non responsive at times and having to jugle between Asus UI and Steam Deck UI is such a pain and performance was mid as well. For the price get a steam deck its way better and more optimize

Amazing performance, lackluster battery
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome device, been using it for about a week now, and genuinely shocked with how well it performs. Only thing is dont expect to take it on a long road trup unless you have a power convertor or jackery because this thing eats battery for breakfast.
