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.

    I recommend the upgrade. Games are smoother & there is much less heat production. You don't HAVE to upgrade, but it is maybe 20% noticeable improvement.

    If you are looking to get an all round handheld system this is a phenomenal option. As it is easily capable of running most standard PC titles. Moreover, it will emulate most systems as well especially the Switch if you are looking to jump ship as I was! The case and fan setup are separately bought!

    I bought this 5 months ago and I still love it! The performance is smooth, the graphics are amazing, and the controls feel super comfortable. It’s durable too — even after heavy use, it works like new. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves gaming on the go. Definitely one of my favorite purchases!

    The Handheld to Have

    This thing plays my favorite titles and I can take it around the world with me. I know in the past the Armory app has not been well received but I think the bugs have been worked out. This device has a windows desktop but its rally needed with how seamless the Armory app allows you to bounce between the different luanchers like Steam, Xbox, and Battle.net.

    The Ally X is the one to have. If you dont already have a Ally, get this! The battery life is great, AAA titles will get you around 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Emulation is king here! Look forward to having hours of fun playing tour favorite retro games. This is a full fledge laptop in a handheld form factor, so on the back end, be prepared to configure things behind the scenes to make the usability and playabilty more seamless. This is the ONE!

    Having this is a game change to my constantly travel schedule. the pure power to run AAA title with great playable framerate, also having VRR is a big plus compare to the steam deck. the windows operating system still have room to improve, but if you know how to tinker, change it to Steam OS (Bazzite) will make the experience a lot better.

    I got this device after selling my Z1X version of the Ally. It performs slightly better. Unfortunately, they still kept the rounded D-Pad on this version. Sure, the black color is better in my opinion. The main problem I had with it is that, after about 8 months, the device suddenly didn't turn on anymore. I've never dropped it or got it wet. Tried every possible solution online, but nothing worked. So I'm currently selling it for its hardware.

    Basically an extension of my home pc I play this constantly. It doesn’t come with a 100 watt charger, however if you want one buy one it’s not really needed. I can play any game I have on pc and my ps5 with remote play for ps5

    Retuned the Lenovo Legion Go for the this one

    I bought the legion go and was happy with the screen size but after 6 hours of playing and after a windows update it gave me a blue screen error and it wouldnt boot up abd it eventually locked me out of the system completely... it was laggy and the buttons in the back were annoying but i was willing to deal with it but instead i returned it and upgraded to the Asus ROG Ally X and let me tell you it is a tremendous difference in every way... speed and ease of use... im new to gaming and i can definitely see why XBOX is teaming up with Asus... i couldnt leave a review on the legion but if you are thinking of getting the legion dont... save a little more and get the Ally X... totally worth it...

    By far the best pc handheld I’ve used. I didn’t think the original Z1E could be outdone, but ASUS set the bar for everyone to see the beauty of a true portable pc.

    At this point I can't imagine my life without a portable PC like this. I originally had the Ally Extreme and I liked it so much I decided to upgrade to this. The battery life difference was a big factor and this one is much improved. Everything works pretty well and surprisingly Armory crate fits nicely for this device. Highly recommend.

    AMAZING - REMOVE WINDOWS ADD BAZZITE

    So, I never used windows on it. I removed windows and put Bazzite on it (Linux that mimics SteamOS). I turned this machine into a more powerful steam deck. Cannot beat it. Don’t even use my 3080 laptop anymore. As a married man, this is perfect to pick up and play; then drop all in the span of 15 minutes. I love to play Triple A titles. It handles it SOOO WELL.
