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 is the best handheld to get, price/performance ratio, got it for $700. I use it on bazzite most of the time, it feels more like a console, the battery lasts more than double compared to the original z1E version and the joysticks are better.

    Very happy with the quality of this gaming handheld! Great graphics for the size of this thing, with pretty decent battery life. Windows is the only major downside as it's not really meant to operate on touchscreens, but beyond that works fantastic.

    Really enjoyed gaming with this while on vacation. Of course it doesn’t replicate everything that I need from my desktop, but the performance while portable is remarkable.

    This thing is my first handheld computer and it’s not disappearing! The feel of it and the ease of setup and figuring out how to upload my games was fun. Solid machine and it’s perfect for the games I’ve been playing

    Best option for gaming

    It's a handheld. So, don't expect it to perform like a gaming desktop or laptop. It's still a good gaming companion for a person like myself who travels a lot and will perform games well above 30fps (In my case, RE4 Remake avg. 42fps at low/med settings FSR Balanced at 720p). My only issue is the 'Armoury' that's it.

    Best battery life handheld. I’ve had both ally x and ally extreme. Some how they feel the same weight even though the battery is much bigger.

    My first time with AMD, it took a minute at first while setting up but after all of that. It has ran great. It does use a lot of battery playing Valhalla, Hogwarts and stalkers 2 but that seems to be the only short coming. It's the best battery on the marked that I know of. I usually keep it plugged in when I play those games.

    This thing is awesome! Take a bit to get it set up initially - same as setting up Windows on a new PC - but once you do, it's off to the races. Been playing Dave the Diver, STALKER 2, and Marvel Rivals. Runs them all pretty well.

    I went back and forth between this and the steam deck ultimately settling on the ally x. Though windows can be a pain sometimes it was a must for certain titles. Ultimately I am happy with my purchase with no regrets. As far as the device itself it seems to be quality built only time will tell.

    This handheld is great for gaming. I can play PC, Xbox, and PlayStation games making my options almost unlimited! The only time I’ve had issues was when a game isn’t optimized for handhelds, but that isn’t a common occurrence at all.
