    Definitely far better than I thought it was going to be! It runs very smooth and the storage capacity is high enough for me to download the majority of the games that I planned on downloading anyways, I got a microSD card though and it was a seamless transition to download and use it. I have to say that with 100% certainty for the price of this device I would buy an additional one just as a backup just because the performance depressed ratio is more than balanced

    I have a Steam Deck Oled and Legion Go and have been wanting to add a Rog Ally to my collection. The ergonomics is what sold me on the Rog Xbox Ally. Performance wise it is on par with the Steam Deck Oled. I highly recommend. If you are looking for the highest Fps at higher resolutions on AAA titles, go for the X version. If you're ok with 720p gaming with good Fps and good battery life, go for the base Rog Xbox Ally (white one).

    Great device. Plays most of the games I play with some exceptions. Whatever it struggles to play, streaming it makes up for it. Obviously if you can spare the extra $500-600 for X do it but overall a great budget handheld.

    It is a product that must be given hours of research to configure it for the best performance, without a doubt it is one of the best I have tried and I go for the Xbox rog ally x, to improve the performance of my games.

    Overall, pretty solid. If youre playing older games, and/or not overly intesive games the non X version can definitely keep up. Ive tried Skyrim, The Long Dark, Forza Horizon 5, and Diablo 4. All of them are either acceptable for the lower end screen/hardware, or exceed expectations. If youre willing to limit your library to easier to run games, or handle a sub 60 FPS on certain games, this will work. I wish the non X version had more internal storage, but I can tolerate the lower spec SSD as i only use this for when im out of town for work.

    I had a software issue with my original purchase, and I was able to get it quickly exchanged with a working model. I couldn’t be happier with what I got for the price I paid. I currently utilize it as a gaming handheld, a remote workstation, and a lower mid tier gaming rig all in one.

    It’s a small pc in your hand. If you are looking for pure handheld experience it might come as an odd one out. Happy with the performance, All the games run smooth so far. Battery backup is good. Screen has the right colors for a handheld.

    BETTER THAN THE STEAM DECK (LCD)

    I own the Steam Deck LCD, and always wished I could play games like Minecraft handheld without the jittery performance of the Nintendo Switch This thing has one of the BEST VRR experiences I have ever-! Playing a game at 1080p with playable framerates is soooo much better than relying on Vsync lower graphics settings to ensure a smooth/consistent 60fps on steam deck. Loved this so much that I nearly stopped playing my gaming PC. So I’m returning this to get that extra boost.
