Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the ROG Ally X's overall performance, improved battery life, and ideal balance of portability and power as key strengths. The device also receives positive feedback for its screen quality, game compatibility, storage capacity, ample RAM, efficient heat dissipation, and acceptable noise levels. While the device is considered a bit heavy, the primary concern appears to be the user experience with the operating system.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Awesome handheld that solves 99 percent of what was wrong with the original. I love the black color and the speaker are very loud. Not heavy at all and i would recommend this over the Steam deck anyday.

    Best Purchase I made or so I thought, I owned a OG Ally previous to my X that I absolutely loved but thought new is better but honestly I really didn't notice too much of a difference and my X is constantly giving me issues with the software to the point where right now its stuck on a loop and I cant play it. Will be asking Best Buy how to proceed and if there is anything they can even do.

    Handled the aaa games very well, for me it was a bit difficult to get used to in fps multiplayer games such as call of duty due to the controllers dead zones being different from traditional controllers besides that loved the device.

    I had mine all of 6 hours before it started grinding on the inside. When I returned it to Best Buy they asked if I had it in a hot car for several days because it was hot as a toaster. I’m super disappointed, I LOVED it before it failed. More than the steam deck OLED. But when I took it in they said I was the third THIRD person to return one the same day. Thank GOD I got it at Best Buy and not ASUS. Wishing everyone else luck with theirs, I won’t be buying another one.

    I love the Ally X, but I had an issue with the left stick being "bumpy" and the mapping wouldn't work with the buttons, could only use touch pad. I'll chalk that up to it being open box, so I returned to get an open box, fingers crossed.

    Display scratch out of the box; QC issues remain

    I pulled it out of the box and immediately saw a 1/2-inch scratch in the glass (with a smaller scratch next to it). After the last ROG Ally, which ironically I still own, I honestly thought that the re-design and quality control would be front and center for this release but unfortunately, I was wrong. I won't even bother charging it or turning it on. It's getting returned. I'm extremely disappointed and I'm not sure why I keep rooting for ASUS (or buying their products). I guess the good days are over and I need to seriously re-evaluate utilizing ASUS both personally and professionally going forward.

    Man.. had the thing for a week.. and I will say it is the best handheld I’ve laid my hands on… but that being said, the technology just ain’t there yet… if you like to play any titles like I like,(rivals, bo6, apex, overwatch, siege) im sorry to say but I think you’ll find this won’t cut it… 100-110fps @ low resolution just isn't competitive.. I’m 30 y/o I need every competitive edge I can get lol…
