Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great handheld! very portable. I have been able to play AAA games at medium settings and get 60+ fps. very comfortable to hold. battery life is great also!

It's amazing. It's a handheld PC and that can be janky at times, but as a lifelong nerd I find it awesome to hold a complete PC in my hands. The AMD Z1 Extreme processor it contains has also amazed me. I've played games from every platform and they've ran as well as can be expected, the battery has been more than enough, the 1TB of storage has not been an issue thus far (I have a lot of games). This is a pricey piece of technology but if you're like me it will not disappoint you. It's makes me excited for the future of handheld gaming and devices.

Everything about this hand held is awesome except for 2 things, 1. Windows 11 sucks for a gaming operating system 2. The battery life sucks . I know I know this model has the bigger battery capacity but still, if you run a graphics intensive game you’re looking at an hr and a half at most. Other than that, it’s a beast! Runs any game I want. If there was a number 3. On the this it would be price point, I found it to be a little expensive. But yeah, if you’re looking for a hand held gaming device, this is it. Hope this helps.

After a year with this handled i love it and dose everything i need it to do . Fantastic for when im traveling for work and have some down time. Its not without its issue's being a window's handheld with that being said i have had minimum issue's with it

The best video game console, no issues at all. ROG Ally is the next stage evolution for mobile PC Gaming.” “It offers a beautiful screen on the go and can play almost any game at the right settings, without emulation.” It's comfortable, easy to use and fully immersive.

This handheld is seriously impressive. The performance is way stronger than I expected for a portable system. Being able to run full PC games smoothly on something this small still blows my mind. The screen looks great, the controls feel good, and Windows gives you the flexibility to install basically anything you want. I’ve used it for Game Pass, Steam games, and even some emulation, and it handles everything really well. The portability is the best part. Being able to play full PC games anywhere is just awesome. For anyone who likes PC gaming but also wants the flexibility of handheld play, this device is amazing.

Absolutely love my Rogue ally x! This little machine has handled every latest title I’ve thrown at it so far! Don’t pass it up! The only thing I hate is it runs on windows 11 and can be hard navigating the menus with your finger. It could use a better OS to make it more gaming friendly.

Ever since purchasing the Ally X I have used it almost every day. It is the perfect companion device to your PC and if you don’t own a PC then well, these handhelds are basically PC’s anyway. This thing is pretty strong, I mostly play in turbo mode and have really enjoyed the performance. Windows just recently released the Xbox fullscreen experience and I’ll be honest, I really don’t see a difference performance wise. If you don’t care about gamepass, try Bazzite, you won’t regret it as the performance gets a massive boost. You can also dual boot if you don’t want to miss out on gamepass games. It is such a good product and I would highly recommend purchasing!

I had the Ally for almost a year and loved it, but having to play plugged in majority of the time because of the battery defeated the purpose of having a handheld. The bigger battery and more efficient hardware make the Ally X a far better experience and allow you to really enjoy it on the go. I tried the Legion Go for a but, but found the speakers, battery life, and performance to be noticeably worse than the Ally X even though the screen is nice. Overall, the Ally X is worth the upgrade if you can trade in your current Ally and finance.

Good battery life, great performance, but lackluster screen. And definitely a mini jet with its fans. That all being said, still one of the better handhelds on the market

Windows for me ruins handhelds but the hardware is great. Asus does a good job working with windows but I removed windows and installed bazzite OS which is a custom Linux OS that makes it work like a steam deck. You get rid of the ability to play games like COD and Fortnite but everything is better. Smoother gameplay, no stuttering, working sleep, no windows micro management of all the updates and settings. To remove windows and install bazzite I did this. You will need a flash drive and a keyboard with a usb c adapter. As well as another computer. Go to the bios and disable secure boot Flash a flash drive with Gparted Boot into gparted and delete all the partitions Shut down and flash your flash drive with bazzite OS Boot into the bazzite flash drive and install. You now have a super charged steam deck. I can’t emphasize enough how much better it is for handheld use with bazzite OS. Games that stutter like crazy in windows like hogwarts legacy are buttery smooth on bazzite. There is no clunkiness to it and I have had ZERO crashing or stability problems on bazzite. Amazing!

This Device runs is amazing, Runs all my games with no problems thanks to the higher Ram. The larger battery is a huge help making most games run upward to 3hrs and it feels great in the hand. If you got the money for this I highly recommend it as its a Fantastic product

Great device! Plays tons of new games no problem. Gets 60fps no problem with decent settings. 120fps on certain games with lower settings and frame Gen enabled. Battery life is decent, I can get a few hours of game time on battery, but I typically play with it plugged in. Operating system is fine, Windows is windows, but the ease of setting up and dual booting Bazzite is perfect. Use bazzite for steam games and windows for xbox/game pass. Memory is easily upgradable to 4tb, then you can add a 1tb sd card if you want it maxed. Perfect handheld to play steam games if you don't have a gaming pc or want to game on the go.

It’s a powerful machine, a bit heavy but you get used to it. Enable AFMF 2 in your AMD software settings for a nice FPS boost. Most games are optimized to run at high settings, whereas the steam deck you’re going to get low to medium on newer titles. I still think the steam deck is the better value, but if you’re willing to shell out extra cash for more horsepower then you can’t go wrong with the Ally X.

For my first PC handheld, the Ally X is an impressive handheld gaming console that combines power and portability. It delivers smooth gameplay and stunning graphics. The 24GB of RAM ensures multitasking and retro gaming via Emulation Station is a breeze, enhancing the overall user experience. While its performance and battery life are beyond good, that price point is a bit steep. Additionally, the limitations of Windows 11 can be a drawback for some gamers. Overall, a solid choice for gaming on the go, you won't be disappointed.

Simply amazing!!! One of the best handheld out there, easy to use and plays everything from old to new games flawlessly

An amazing product, especially if you're not exactly a Nintendo fan, but you like hand-held products like this... While it is a bit pricier than most other options, doing some research, This had to be the best option for me. It runs almost any game I throw at it, and I can bring it wherever I go!

The improvements to The ROG Ally X make it leaps and bounds a better handheld than other windows handhelds on the market. Thanks to upgrades like the analog sticks tighter retention, bigger battery, thicker handles, more RAM and faster RAM aswell as a Thunderbolt 4 port. Ive ran quite a few games on it and most games run amazing it on. The only games ive had an issue with is Remnant 2 being a very heavy and unoptimized game and some stuttering on Borderlands 3 which i fixed with the texture streaming

Cool piece of hardware. Powerful mini pc. Battery life wasn’t amazing but it was good enough and didn’t run too hot either while playing plugged in. I couldn’t get a few games to work without latency issues that made those few games unplayable. The majority that I tried ran great. No fps issues either. There are a ton of settings to increase efficiency or decrease to improve battery life. I ended up returning because I couldn’t justify the use cases vs the cost. I could see it being great for road trips, if you’re not the one doing all the driving.

It's amazing. Windows OS pre-installed and everything works flawlessly. I even tried various things and they all works great. It's just like gaming PC in handheld version. However, not all games will be easily playable because some don't support controller layouts like my favorite game World of Warships, unfortunately, but there are still plenty of fun to be had.
