Customer Ratings & Reviews

The ASUS Rog ally Z1 extreme has been performing well for me. I am able to play from steam, xbox ultimate game pass and Playstation remote play very easily. This handheld is lightweight and fairly quiet with the fans. Docked mode really gives you a portable pc experience.

This is a solid first gen machine it can play everything from retro to modern title's. Three problems plague it. 1. Micro sd card slot placement over the exhaust i havent had this as a problem but some people have reported micro sd card failure due to the heat from the exhaust. 2.for good or bad it uses full on windows as the os it updates all the time. But the biggest problem is the battery you might get 1 hour play time depending on how demanding the game is. Dealing with all that i love its easyier then lugging around a laptop.

Im get straight to the point ,I love the Rog Ally very good Traveling companion. My only issue is the battery dies way to quick, like less than 30 minutes at a time. Asus need to work on Extending the battery usage. Other than that I'd recommend this to others.

Its a great handheld gaming system. It runs games really well but due to power use battery life is very low.

I love the Ally. Playing games on it is amazing. I would recommend you to know a little bit about windows if you want one. It's awesome being able to play games on steam, epic games store, ane Xbox game pass. And if you like emulators this is a Beast as long as you have the knowledge. If you're playing a game like Red Dead Redemption 2 the battery will not last long. If you play a game like Stardew Valley The battery will last a lot longer. Also a nice thing about play games on the Ally is that you can Mod the games.

Love, My Rog ally. There are so many bad review out there. Come on, You can't expect a newly lauch device to work fawless on day one. Im sure asus will work out all it's issues with there device and it will run flawlessly. Havent had all the issue with mind. It plays all the games i throw at it. Battery life is not all that great but it includes a 65w charger that charges it up less than 30 minutes to full charge. If you're use to running windows pc you will have no issue. Its truly a pc plus handheld built in one device.

Is it perfect? No. Is anything first gen perfect at first? No. Is it worth your money? Well i cant answer that for you, but it was worth mine. I like being able to wind down at night and this is perfect for that. Its windows based so its pretty flexible. And if you already have xbox gamepass, then you already have a library of games at your disposal. Emulators? Yep. Good screen and speakers. It is reparible too. You need more memory?u can install it yourself. Get a little dock like i have and you can use it as your game machine and general purpose computer. 5/5 for me. I know they are going to work all the bugs out and this thing is going to be solid!

This is something Extremely funny and powerful never thought this kind of performance could be packed in a gaming handheld like this, it's beautiful design with a nice 120hz screen

I haven't played games on my actual PC since I've got this. I've even put MORE into gaming because now I can play anywhere! I love that I can run any game I wants with mods included if any. The quality is really great. The battery life is average 2 hours depending what I'm playing. It doesn't bother me too much since it will either be a good time for a break or just plug it into the wall behind me. I love my Ally so much! If you are a girl and have smol hands - do not worry, it still works great :) .

Wanted the power of a gaming PC and portability of a handheld device. This device doesn't disappoint. I can play the games that I usually played on an old core i3 gaming pc, but better! If you don't want to spend much updating your old gaming pc, this is an amazing purchase. Note: To play some games, tweaking is needed, is a windows handheld gaming device after all, so If you are into tech stuff this will be no problem. Also, the Spigen set is a must have: screen protector, slim case and travel case

The ROG Ally is fast and smooth. It is superligt. All my favorite games run great and I like how it has access to add more storage.

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) Review: The ROG Ally is a versatile handheld device that runs smoothly across multiple Windows platforms. It delivers solid performance and supports a wide range of games with good play time. However, it's not the most durable thumbsticks can become faulty even after a minor fall, so handle with care. The slick chassis can also make it a bit slippery during longer sessions. I highly recommend it for tech-savvy users who are comfortable with regular maintenance, updates, firmware installs, and careful device handling. With the right attention, it's a powerful gaming companion.

I might have been lucky I've yet to have a problem with the MicroSD card or slot. Plays almost every game in my steam library without much effort. Build quality is good. Screen display although not an OLED is great. Sounds coming from the speakers are superb. A product I would highly recommend.

Great handheld, I use it almost every day. With a good case, a dock and some grips for the controller and this thing is a beast! The only disappointment I have is the SD card reader not working but I'm sure there will be a fix for that soon and who really games off of a SD card anyways? All in all I give it a 4 stars but it would have been 5 if everything was working properly.

Its worth getting. For the price of a PS5 you are basically geting something that is more gaming than laptop. Lol maybe I should of gotten a gaming laptop but this works fine with the right accessories. I am so please with this, that the laptop I purchased back in 2019 is being replaced by this gaming device. While I was trialing it. The return policy for Best Buy was the main reason why I purchased it. I was going to get gaming laptop, but I am satisfied with the ultra portability of this handheld.

I already own a steam deck, but i saw this had better specs and full Windows 11 on it, so i boight it. Overall, its a nice device, 1080p 120hz screen, RGB lights on the joysticks, and a nice design. The games look really nice on it, and the amount of storage is generous. The only problem I ran into is that the microsd card reader died on mine after 2 weeks, and I have to use a usb c adapter to use microsd until a solution comes along. Besides that, i recommend buying this.

I kept being indecisive about it, but the end i believe it was worth it. The idea of carrying your games, from Steam or EpicGames, while being on the go is pretty neat. The fact that is not just for gaming is neat too. I personally didn't know how it worked, i was expecting something like the Switch OS, so the fact this is a small computer is great. Some will say just buy a laptop, but honestly i don't want to carry something that big, so this perfect. It is newer, so plenty of years before it becomes obsolete. The only complaint I have, and I read about is the battefy life.

I tried this system and live the fact that you can continue PC games on the handheld. if i were traveling all the time i might have kept it. it’s great for some games but if your targets are far away it can make aiming extremely difficult. the speed is great, the quality, feel, and the way it looks are all incredible. overall i returned the product because the machine’s fans get loud and it gets pretty warm. you can definitely tell how hard it’s working. i think i’m going to just wait until the next generation comes out because i love the direction it’s headed in but i see these areas needing improvement. again, if i were traveling a whole bunch and couldn’t bring my PC or laptop setups, then i would have kept it. I would recommend swapping iut the 512gb ssd to the 2tb before even turning it on (to avoid having to repeat the process when you use up all of your storage in the first day), but keep in mind you’ll have to configure the system doing it that way, it can be downloaded from startup

It is very aesthetically beautiful, the sides feel of very good quality, quite comfortable and it does not weigh much, the games run very smoothly, 9.5/10

Amazing device, i bought it roughly a month after launch. It is super capable to play many diffrent titles on steam and Xbox. I took advantage of THE 3 MONTH Xbox game pass too. The latest updates that we have recived for this device has improved the UI and gaming experience. Once you find that sweet TDP watt setting this device will deliver 60 plus FPS with a nice temperature in the 60s. I still havent ventured into the dock system to make it a console. I definitely recommend this device, especially with all videos on YouTube for alot of helpful tips.
