    What can i say about this handheld video game/ computer. Well first if you hold it feels comfortable in your hands and along with that the buttons and joysticks are super smooth. I would recommend this to anyone as you will have fun playing.

    Runs games except heavy titles like dark souls. My only issue is that out of the box the resolution is set to low and graphics for the system are set to low so you have to change them before you actually play games. Unless you change you will be playing without ai upscaling for better frame rates and lower resolution And it's running a low power mode.

    I like it, it helps with it being more handheld to play and have a solid grip, I do think the OG has a better playing some if not most without having to switch to turbo mode, but I still enjoy this and it does come with two ports for charging it and can still play my games.

    I’ve used the original ROG Ally in the past and unfortunately this system has been much more “clunky” than the original. The OS is not easy to navigate and I spent over an hour just trying to get logged in and download a single game. The on screen keyboard is also finicky and doesn’t always appear when you need it to. Overall, I got so frustrated that I’ve decided to return it and stick with the original ROG Ally.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    good console, plays Steam games nicely. okay battery life, good enough for mid-range/lower-end games. not as good for higher-end/AAA games but that's what ROG Xbox Ally X is for. W console for its price.
