Customer Ratings & Reviews

Guys take the pc aspect out of the equation. If you take the time to set it up properly and with the right settings it’s perfect. I purchased a compact keyboard and mouse as well as dock and plan to use it to replace my desktop, Xbox, and laptop. For my use it works great.

It meets its purpose, it is fun and useful because it has Windows.

Coming from a 4K Gaming PC set, this surprises me with what it can do, as a handheld PC. I like that I can play a variety of games with good battery performance on a 1080P display. It’s comfortable to hold and the back buttons are nice.

Amazing handheld would recommend to anybody that wants a handheld that can play PC games and console games

great handheld, battery was a little short but for what it was handled well

Great handle use for gaming but it’s a computer aswell

Fantastic some pc controls are funky but easily fix with a real keyboard and mouse all in all love this thing

Very good quality, almost new but was missing a charger, besides that great product and I’m loving it

Helps my husband destress while gaming in bed. We also watch our netflix shows on it and it runs really smooth. The only con I would say is it doesn’t stand on its on. Otherwise, great device!

The Ally X, or in other words an Ally Extreme with the bugs ironed out (for the most part). With this being introduced into the lineup, there is little reason to get the Extreme and not pay a little extra to get the X. Of course, used market aside, on paper the Ally X is hands down the superior model and after playing with this for a week, it has proven to be quite sufficient as a handheld gaming PC. To start, a much needed upgrade is the battery, which is twice as big at 80Wh. With games running between 15W-25W in the silent profile, you can get just over 4 hours of gaming. With a manual profile to go as low as possible, I was able to get some lower profile indie games to run around 10W-13W. This means almost 7 hours of gaming on the go. Depending on the game, this is doable with decent FPS of at least 30+. If you were to bring a battery bank, you can get more. I estimated about 2000mAh of charge is needed to go to full when using a wattage meter. The 100W when charging is correct, but the included charger only goes up to 65W. As for handholding the device, is is quite comfortable. It does not feel too bulky, and the weight is not too bad either. While the air being exhausted from the top vents can feel hot, the places where you grip do not feel hot at all. Additionally, when using the silent profile, it does actually stay very quiet. Having two USB-C ports make this a much more friendly travel PC without needing to bring a dock so you can charge and plug in a peripheral. These are all welcome changes and updates the the Extreme, even if there is no significant changes to the internal hardware itself. Overall, Asus gives you a lot of customization when it comes to the software interfacing with the hardware, and it is good to see them allow you to set all kinds of different profiles so that you can get the best performance possible to the game you play. It is great to see that they have taking what was wrong with the original Ally, and improved on it with this model. Of course, there are still things that could be improved. Not at the fault of Asus, Windows is still not the best in terms of usability with a small touch screen. The keyboard feels in the way most of the time, and it really feels like you are fighting with switching between using Armory Crate and the Windows UI. The finger print sensor is not that great, it seems to be a miss more often than not. Other than these, there has not been much to complain about. Overall, this has been a pleasant device to bring along while traveling, and is good enough to take the pain away during longs flights. If Asus can continue to iterate on this model, there is a lot to look forward to for the next generation of Ally's.

Very good it’s the best one, with windows 11 steam and much more

great piece of gear for gaming but had problems keeping a wifi signal. too much jitter and packet loss.. this was on multiple wifi systems.. disappointed. graphics and versatility was amazing though

Big fan of this device. Windows is a little quirky and that's a complaint others say a lot, but once you're in a game no complaints. Great controls and way to tailor to whatever task.

I love this thing. I wish it had better cooling for the price but I carry it everywhere now.

Best device ever and Hagerstown best has best customer service in the area hands down

So far the device work well. It's used mainly for gaming. The only issue identified is the left trigger and left joy-stick / controller malfunctioned for a day. During gaming the controller stopped responding and the trigger behaved as if it were stuck in the down position. The device was rebooted after 6 hours of non-use and that seemed to do the trick.

Nice upgrade from the ASUS ROG ALLY (Z1 Extreme processor). The only problem I have is the Bluetooth stopped working twice now. The first time, I factory reset/restore Windows 11 to fix it, but it eventually quit on me. It just disappeared and doesn't show up in Device Management.

So much easier to play PC titles without having to sit at a desk to play. I haven’t found a game it doesn’t play well, if not spectacularly.

My Daughter showed my her Steamdeck and I was hooked

Great service I got what I wanted and at a great price
