Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very nice product. The performance is way better than what I expected. I am using it with a quest 3 and the experience is very smooth. The battery life is good too. I don't need to charge it if I don't use it in a couple of dats. Besides, I finished this purchase inside a store and the clerk helped explain to me what's the best deal I can get for it, which saves me roughly 50 bucks (I guess). Thank you so much!!!

I take this with me most places and i love it, i do use it more like a portable desktop though using a portable monitor. My spouse gas the ally x and it js nice too. I just wish it both had more ports and that rog make a dock themself that has an adequately powered adaptor. Oh and upgrading the storage was so easy !!

I've had my Nintendo Switch since 2017. I've loved it for its stability and simplicity. It's a handheld console with decent battery life without any bloat. A few years into owning it, I've been in the search for an upgrade. Deterred by subpar battery life and performance, I've stuck with my trusty Switch. That was until the ROG Ally with Z1 became available. The battery life is less than that of the Switch, which is expected due to its increased size, audio, video, and overall processing performance, but it's manageable. I'm able to play 2 and a half 6-minute quarter NBA games, which is not bad IMO. I have kept my Switch this whole time, but I think now I'm confident to let it go.

The ROG Ally is amazing with the modern model Z1 Extreme you can enjoy most of not all PC games at 60fps on avrage 40fps for demanding titles and can reach over 100fps with AI upscaling and performance modes enable

This product is delightful to carryalong for when we are on the go or at home. The picture is awsome it is a great gift and for personal use. Works exquisitely and the games are awesome.

First things first this is a great device. Its got the lower to run just about any game at settings that look good on this size of a screen. Our boys played it while we traveled without issue. If someone is expecting this to be just pick up and play, it can be with skme front end work. Its a PC, so there is some set up, updating, and downloading required. But once its ready to rock the armory crate/asus app on the device keeps anything gaming well organized. Everyone has to remember if you dont have internet you cant play live service games, so olan accordingly and download some that can be played locally from the devoce. We are extremly happy with how it performs and its ease of use.

Very good just battery dies very fast but overall very good performance

[Employee of bestbuy] This device is not your average handheld console. People who are used to playing switch or the steam deck are gonna have a hard time getting used to this, but if you know how to use a windows laptop or ever used a pc use it like a laptop with controllers. You can use this to play Vr games or Nintendo games if you want you just have to download emulatros. But get ready to update this thing for 6 hours because you have to first update windows, then update the bios, then update the armory crate then you are good to start using this. After this any game you throw at it it will run as long as you play around with the settings and the performance. I have been draming like a device like this since a kid a gaming console where u can play whichever games wherever whenever.

Amazing device. Steam, PA remote play, Xbox, GOG- You name it, the Rog can handle it. Paying with your Best Buy Elite card? Even better. Get the best device at the best place. One of the best purchases I've ever made. I haven't stopped having fun with this device since purchase. Just amazing.

It was lightweight, the buttons felt nice to price, it wasn’t very loud like a ps4, and the speakers were nice. Windows ran really well when it came to using the web. However, the touch screen isn’t the best as I often had to keep spamming certain applications for them to even star loading. As someone who has played with a controller their entire life, the feeling of having my hands stretched out so much did feel odd, but that’s not the consoles fault.

I bought open box. It's great, play genshin impact, GTA5 and Roblox. I have several games downloaded. Works great with mobile hotspot

I like the weight and sleekness compared to the Steam Deck. The screen also is where this item shines. Don’t expect this to be a console; Limit your expectations and understand this is meant to be a portable handheld! :)

I love my Ally. It works perfect. Plays all my Blizzard, Steam, and EA games. Plays Diablo 4 with zero problems. Short battery life. Make sure you get a powerful car charger if you are going to play it on the road

This thing is amazing. The screen pops. The controls are responsive, although a bit clicky. The joysticks have a great feel to them. The triggers are nothing to praise, they are good quality, but ordinary. As of now this system has 1 issue. SD CARDS. The 512GB of storage fills quickly. I purchased an SD card to expand my storage, and it stopped working after 5 minutes. The SD card will over heat and fail. To expand storage, get a bigger 2230 nvme. It takes less than 10 minutes to swap it, and about half an hour to restore your system using asus cloud service.

Was able to buy an open box model. However after a couple days of tweaking/updating it and trying out some of my favorite games, I have decided to return it. DISCLAIMER: this thing is AWESOME. It is a full fledged computer in every sense and even better! I already own a perfectly fine gaming PC, and don’t care to go through the necessary setup with this, just to occasionally play it. PC gaming is still very keyboard/mouse dependent, but from what I’ve seen with docks the Rog Ally is 100% capable of that. Something like this (perhaps a newer version), May very likely be my next PC. The 4nm chip architecture has half the performance of my gaming PC, and with less than 50watts to power it!! Absolutely amazing! Again, just not for me at this time.

This thing can run any game at a stable 30-60 FPS. I played through the entirety of RDR2 and never went under 30, sometimes hitting 60. Incredible. Battery life is the only negative, but that was expected.

This thing has a ton of power inside of it and has great performance for many games that I’ve tired. In my opinion it’s the best way to get games in the go with having a laptop or a giant desktop with yiu

One of the best handheld gaming devices i have ever own, this is a must buy for anyone who likes to game on the go, you can play both steam and xbox games well worth it.

Rog Ally is a next generation when compared to the Steam Deck. Although, Windows is buggy and annoying at a times but you get so many options to do with your handheld without the need of dealing with errors if you choose to install games from various platforms (GOG, Epic, EA, etc). However, if you like using docking stations (TV connection), Rog Ally isn’t seamless compared to steam deck. An update could fix that. For me, the screen itself in Rog Ally is a worthy upgrade. I upgraded the 512gb to 2Tb before I even started using it. It’s the best handheld gaming device in the market.

Works really well and love the game play. Can get hot if you’re not letting the air flow. It’s a handheld pc so it’s awesome. Photo is compared with a switch light. Much bigger screen yet not heavy
