For Bed and traveling!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think this handheld is great for its size. It’s kinda hard switching from a beast computer to a handheld from time to time cause the graphics and gameplay but I’m sure sooner or later these will be come beasts in the future. Other than that I think this is perfect if you want to lay on the bed and chill or for traveling.

Love the ROG Ally uwu
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this console/computer handheld. I've used it for everything from gaming to high end emulation to simply reading library ebooks. It is an incredible piece of tech, capable of being hardmodded, and despite the many hours of troubleshooting I've sunk into it/the OS, I can say I wouldn't have it any other way!

Best gaming handheld.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have every handheld out there and the Z1 Ally is where it's at. The Lenovo is a close 2nd. Either one you go with you will be happy with. Don't forget to grab a 1tb or a 2tb WD SSD. It's Windows so expect updates out of gate. Also make sure to grab a Jsaux or Skull & Co GripCase.

This is a PC, not a console. Enjoy as such.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Mind blowing that we have this much power in such a concise form factor. 65-year old, lifelong gamer who really appreciates this machine for what it is at this price point, but even more for the potential of this unit. This is not a console, though, so not just plug and play, but enjoy the puzzle of setup and make it yours! Oh, and adding XG Mobile makes this a desktop replacer for me!

Refurbished ROG Ally
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m very happy with this product. I bought mine refurbished, and it still looks great, and performs well. Strongly recommend if you’re looking for a handheld gaming system. I haven’t had any issues with it, but I would suggest getting peripherals and additional storage as it improves the overall gaming experience.

Great device
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had the Ally since launch and it has played every game I have thrown at it beautifully. Red Dead 2, Fallout 4 and 76, New World and Cyberpunk 2077 all run extremely smooth. I bring it with me everywhere. If you are on the fence about getting one, I highly recommend you look at review videos and tutorials for help. I am an avid PC gamer and I am truly amazed at the performance.

Awesome Handheld PC and Gaming Console
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an amazing device. Whether it's recent games or retro it runs well and feels comfortable. Hook it tp a monitor and with my BT mouse and keyboard, it works well with Visual Studio and Spyder for development purposes. Only complaint is 512GB fills fast. Already upgraded it to a 2TB SSD and much happier.

Love PC gaming on the go
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love being able to take my PC gaming on long international flights, but I've found myself using it more than expected when home too. Despite Windows 11 being less than ideal for a touchscreen interface, it hasn't held me back.

Truly Impressive
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This has been one of the most impressive devices I have EVER used in terms of its capacity. The mere variety of titles and game stores available on this device far exceeds any other device on the market when it comes to the capacity of a handheld. And not to mind that, but the power they were able to pack into this small thing is far beyond what I expected. In all honesty, I never expected to play anything past indie titles, but it has demonstrated time and time again that it is plenty capable of playing AAA games. I have so many things to say about this device and so much praise to give it, but you can’t forget the cons. In reality though, the only real downsides is that a handheld version of windows doesn’t reeeallly exist. There are some differences between the desktop version of windows and this version, but it really doesn’t go past slightly different animations and ever so slightly enlarged icons, etc. Besides that, it works the exact same as your desktop or laptop. Overall, the power of the hardware and versitality of windows create a very impressive and fun device for on the go gaming. I truly can’t wait to see what this market does now that ASUS has set the bar.

Your new gaming Ally
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Know what you’re buying and you’ll love this thing. Let it do it’s updates and everything before you try to just slam right into a game also. Windows all ways has background tasks so expect the first 24-48 hours to be setup and downloading time At current time you want to avoid using sd card reader as it’s been dying (possibly hear related, turn fan curve up to help)

Unbelivable
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device is incredible. Early models had problems with over heating but the people at ASUS have been constantly coming out with updates. Evolving constantly and having suppot that rivals valve. Its your pc in your hands. Running triple A games wont be an issue. Best gaming decision ive ever made. (Pictured with insignia case.)

1st generation
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The rog ally definitely had some growing pains in the first weeks. But for it being a custom motherboard, a first gen console, custom processor, and running a brand new operating system that is atill being optimized, it has functioned amazingly and has met all my expectations and then some.

A Machine
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.ATTENTION: This is NOT, i repeat this is NOT counsel handled. This is a full on PC. If you are not a PC person stir clear. If your are a PC person you will absolutely love this thing. One note to take into consideration, the SD card slot will go out and also the joysticks have lottle resistance. A lottle sloppy, but other than those two things its a BEAST.

Asus Rog Ally
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought Asus Rog Ally instead of my Steam Deck and it was worth it. Perfomance is great, familiar OS, it fit well. But, I got a standart hardware issue, that I knew - burned SDcard slot, that can't be fixed even ASUS. So I changed internal ssd to 2 tb and leave it.
