Customer Ratings & Reviews

Use it all the time on the go and on breaks at work.

Great power for a handheld, the problem comes with if youll actually keep using it over your pc. Great for playing games you dont wanna sit in a chair for

It is a definite step up from the original model!!

Better than switch 2. Very worthwhile purchase, with a lot of versatility

A good powerful handheld for your gaming pc needs.

If you’re looking for any gaming handheld PC. This should be the only one you should be looking at

Nothing wrong with an openbox used but brand new go for it and if its defectove just return it :D

Excellent product although does seem to burn battery alittle fast but with its fast charging few hrs and u back as cord free gaming

Excellent Device. Yes there is a little bit of a learning curve if you have never used a PC, but with a little help from Google your questions will be answered.

The new Asus ROG Ally X will be a very popular handheld gaming device, and quite possibly the most popular, And with good reason. This latest redesign compared to the last generation Ally offers some visible changes, as well as other not so visible changes, but overall it is a big improvement. For starters, I wouldn’t call this the ROG Ally 2. Instead, it’s more of a 1.5, or an updated (and better) version. Some highlights are: Color: The first thing people will notice right out of the box is that it is black as opposed to the white Ally from last generation. On the surface, It looks pretty similar to the original in terms of visuals but that is where the similarities end. Screen: For the most part, it has the same 1080p 7inch 120Hz refresh rate screen. Nothing wrong with it, in fact, it actually looks very crispy, colorful and clear, just like before. Battery: 80Wh, what does this mean? It means the battery is twice the size compared to the last generation Ally, will obviously last you roughly twice as long. For such a mobile but powerful handheld gaming machine, this is huge. I mean, you can now go a hours without needing to plug it in somewhere. The more advanced the game, the less the battery will last, but some simpler games can go for most of the day. Operating system: Microsoft Windows 11. Just like a real PC, or Laptop. For better and worse. It’s better because Microsoft makes things fairly easy and customizable. But at the same time worse because it’s not as easy as downloading a game and start playing it like right away like you would a Switch. Ram: 24GB. More than enough to run any game out, up from 16GB from the last generation model. The extra 8GB’s are huge. Games run smoother, less loading times, and just overall better. Processor: AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme, a very good and capable processor. Im not an expert but I think its still the best handheld gaming processor there is. GPU: AMD Radeon RDNA 3 Architecture-based Graphics (4GB VRAM, 12 compute units) Can run any game out now no problems. Some of the more graphically taxing AAA games out might not run at full settings, but can be played nonetheless. Ergonomics: Some vents have been moved, the two buttons in the back are slightly smaller so that you don’t press the accidentally, some corners have been rounded off a little better for a more comfortable grip, everything about this Ally X feels like it was years in the making and Asus got a lot of things right. It also runs cooler than before. Misc: I mostly get my games with the Xbox Game Pass as I already have an Xbox Series X as well and thats just what im used to. Lots of great games to choose from and the Xbox app makes it really easy to get started. There’s so much going on with this device that my review would go on and on, so I’m just gonna keep it a little short. All the connections you need are all here. USB-C for example. Pretty good sounding speakers. Fingerprint readers for security. RGB lights that light up your device. All the buttons you could possibly need.

Seems to be a good little set up. I have a rog laptop and this mirrored my desktop as soon as I logged in and got online.

Yes it's pricey, but for what you get its definitely worth it. Once you install emulator and chiaki to play your ps console it just adds more to the experience. Its a powerful pc in a small package.

I would say near perfect device with only one glaring omission: no OLED screen. For a premium device, this should have been an obvious inclusion. I am tempted to take another star due to how absolutely wretched Windows is on a handheld device, but that isnt ASUS’s fault and you can flash a Linux image on these things.

The Asus ROG Ally X is a great idea with a lot of potential. It does what it promises in terms of performance, but switching between desktop and game controls isn’t very smooth. Navigating the desktop and switching back to a game can feel clunky at times. Also, most games don’t have built-in support for the controls, so you’ll need to manually configure each button, which can be a bit frustrating. Overall, it’s a cool product with strong potential, but it could use some fine-tuning to improve the user experience.

I’ve had it for a now and I think it’s worth the price, I think it needs some improvement in terms of the desktop part and a better battery

The high quality game response time and all the options is what makes this A1 one in my book for playing games

Great product with Window 11 love the gaming and all that comes with it.

The ROG Ally X worked fine but the lack of a clear cut Users' manual killed me. I Had to return it to the store twice. The second time Best Buy exchanged it for another unit.

It is a basically flawless machine, but for $350 cheaters I could I’ve with the flawed first edition z1 extreme model. And these sticks were noticeable tighter, but still wish they were a tiny bit tighter.

Greatest purchase ever. Although it was an open box item, it is like new condition.
