Customer Ratings & Reviews

Battery life is awesome. Performance is amazing gets amazing frame rate. Settup was simple and easy. Controls are easy to switch between and the auto switch isnt too bad.

Yes this has a longer battery life and a bit more ram then the Ally with Z1 Extreme. For me, I couldn't justify the additional $400 price tag so I just ended up sticking with the Ally Z1 Extreme.

I have a gaming PC, but after sitting at a desk and working on a computer all day, sometimes I'd rather chill on the couch or in bed to game. I had been eyeing the original Ally since it was first released, but I decided I didn't need it since I have a Steam Deck. Well ever since the release of 7DTD with no option of cross-play, my wife has officially stolen it. On a whim, I decided to pick this up and maaaan have I been blown away by its performance. It has a downright stunning display that matches my gaming monitor. I haven't had to tweak anything, and I've experienced zero lag thus far. I am thrilled with this sucker and while I can't compare it to the OG, I'm extremely happy with this upgrade despite the higher price tag. Don't think, just buy lol.

Hands down the best pound for pound handheld on the market. If you know how to slim down Windows 11, remove all the bloat and disabled services,it gets even better. With FSR3 or RSR and Frame Gen 2 I never see under 100FPS

I was actually quite reluctant to purchase this handheld at first. I wanted so much to love the original Legion Go but it had too many negatives to continue using. Primarily the speaker quality, ergonomics and fan whine. This, although still not exactly quiet, is much more enjoyable to use. I don't mind the smaller display and it's comfortable to hold for extended time so I never feel fatigued while gaming. It's perfect. The price point is fairly high but I believe you're getting a premium product here. I would definitely recommend this Ally X to anyone who wants a great way to play games while traveling or just in bed/on the couch. I don't regret my purchase at all. A+

I got this baby open-box and have been enjoying playing games on it. I am not a big fan of Windows, so I really enjoy the fact that I was able to install a Linux os onto the machine (I am using bazzite as of this review). 1 terabyte storage is a really good amount of storage on this console, just enough to keep 100 gb games installed without needing to periodically delete them from the system. I recommend getting this if you are ever interested in handheld PC gaming!

One of the best purchases I’ve ever made. I bought it open box for about $700. I installed Bazzite OS, much better than windows. Only issue is the buttons are a bit loud, but can be fixed with a little work and a YouTube tutorial. Great performance, great product.

It's a really great machine. Windows is a little clunky on it but that's just Windows. It'll run a lot of games pretty well. You should probably have it plugged in while playing resource intensive games since it'll suck the battery dry really quick.

The product was almost perfect, despite the box and minor scratches. It is amazingly good and with some sacrificies it can be the best handheld pc comparing price/performance. Need a xbox experience without paying extra 400 bucks? Rog got u

Open Box unit listed as "Good" was honestly immaculate. Not a single visible mark or anything, but it came without a box or the little cardboard stands that come with them usually. Fair enough trade off for saving $150. I've been putting this unit to the test with various AAA titles as well and I cannot see anything wrong with it, externally or internally. Absolutely would recommend, but obviously the chance for issues is there and every open box won't be the same.

I bought this for my son and he absolutely loves it. It is a massive step up form the Steam deck. We have that device and it can't play anything very well and has terrible screen. This has a fantastic screen and plays everything, it is wonderful.

I was hoping for Nintendo to announce a new console that would be a more sophisticated Switch Pro type device but after hearing the full announcement I was so glad I went with the ROG Ally X as I can play my Steam library and PC Gamepass with ease. Then after hearing Microsoft adopted this variant for their new handheld I knew I made a solid purchase. Very happy customer!

Product receives 5 stars due to customer service. Im happy with the open box procuct itself and it functions very well. When received it did not come with a charger which was described as being part of the open box set in Excellent condition. I went to my local Best Buy location, which is not the one the product shipped from, and explained the situation and they quickly and painlessly helped me resolve the situation with a replacement charger.

Couldn't be happier with this purchase! Great quality screen, easy to use controls, pre-installed software makes it easy to setup accounts and get great graphics from all of my games.

I really enjoy the Asus ROG Ally X! I’ve had the Steam Deck, Legion Go, and the original ROG Ally Z1 Extreme and I can say that this is leagues above all others in terms of performance and comfort. Its nice having all of my steam games and xbox game pass all on one device that I can play on the couch or on a long car ride. It can take some time adjusting game settings to get optimized performance but it’s easy to get the hang of.

First new handheld since the Vita and man was this worth every penny! Not only is this great for more Steam games but also my GamePass library!

Bought this as the Like New refurbished option and it came out of the box with nothing missing and in perfect shape. I've had it for only a few weeks and have already completed two major games that had been sitting in my Steam Library unfinished. I'm looking forward to being able to use it for some emulation as well as continued use in completing games that have occupied my mind for so long but have not had the motivation to sit down at my PC for countless hours to complete. Much easier to do while on the couch.

Ive owened a few handheld pc game machines and this is hands down the best. Rigjt now im playing Black Myth: Wukong and getting 60FPS easily. Thr battery is amazing as well. I cant wait to see what the Rog Ally X 2 will be like

Great for a handheld! I’ve been playing triple A title games such as Diablo 4, GTA 5 and Halo Infinite with no issues. Awesome for on the go and battery last up to 2-3 hours, longer for less power hungry retro type games.

I am absolutely blown away. My experience is it has the ability to run all the games I play at a steady frame rate 30-50 with medium- high graphics. If you’re deciding between this and the steam deck I would get this just for performance and amount of titles it can play (downloading other launchers and works with anti cheat) this feels like a computer while the steam deck feels like a console. It absolutely lives up to expectations. Windows is clunky on handheld but you get used to it. The joy sticks aren’t the best but I have absolutely used worst and with a little tweaking they are fine.
