Customer Ratings & Reviews

Personally I love it games like death stranding look and run beautifully and it’s extremely comfortable. If you have the budget of course.

I absolutely love it. I'm coming from a steamdeck OLED and without a doubt I'm loving this thing more. It runs on windows instead of linux so it can add a little corkiness with updates and stuff but because it's windows that allows you to play every pc game that steamdeck doesnt allow because of Linux. Also this handheld is just much faster and powerful you won't be disappointed. Even at the price I try not to complain when knowing there are other handhelds that cost more already and are not as powerful.

Amazing product, fast and also battery last long , i mainly use it for steam games and it serves its purpose

The Perfect direction for XBOX to be headed, especially since they are marrying the epic game store and steam into their UI (which you can change to default to armory crate if you don't like the Xbox ui). I haven't put this handheld down since i got it and it's completely replaced my steam deck. The only downsides i have so far is that i cant add the amazon game store to the Xbox UI, however you can add it to armory crate. And I really wish there put a bigger default drive in.

I love it, i can keep playing my games wherever i go. The sound is amazing and playing looks fantastic and smooth.

Great new technology. First time having a Hand-held console and it has impressive peeformance. The portable advantage gives a more immersive aspect.

Just an amazing system, love being able to play on the go. Battery life and everything else is amazing. Highly recommend

Top of the line gaming handheld but keep in mind it’s not a gaming PC. Has some moderate to severe lag issues with AAA titles but super fun to use and I’m sure I’m just scratching the surface.

From the moment I picked it up, I knew this wasn’t just another handheld. The ROG Ally Xbox feels like it was sculpted for comfort, smooth contours, perfect weight, and a grip that makes long sessions feel effortless. Performance? Blazing. It boots fast, runs smoother than I expected, and handles demanding titles like a champ. Whether you're grinding through campaigns or hopping into quick matches, this device keeps up without breaking a sweat.

I love this thing. The performance is great & I love the feel of it. The feel is really what sells it for me. I also love having all my games from various launchers tied together and launchable through the Xbox experience. I've had and loved my Steam Deck for a few years but there are certain games it can't play. Those games happen to be most of the most popular online games in the world. It's great being able to play anything. No regrets

This device is something I've wanted since the early 2000s that will allow me to play my PC and console games on one device. And since I've always been a Xbox guy I'm so glad that they teamed up with ASUS to create this device. It's easily the most powerful handheld I've played and I had the original ROG Ally X and the first gen Steam Deck, which I still have and love. But the Xbox Ally X can play it all since it's Windows.

While the device works amazing and has great visuals, I give this a 4 stars to reflect the poor UI. The UI can be glitchy at times and requires you to touch the screen quite a bit which I am not a fan of. My biggest complaint about this whole handheld is that it missed an amazing opportunity to be an XBOX handheld and instead is a Gamepass PC handheld. If it were able to play native xbox one games, it would be a game changer.

I have a Steam deck oled, i had the original ROG ally, The ROG Ally X, and now this, waiting for my Legion Go 2. But this device by far is the most comfortable to hold on, and most easy to use handheld till date. If i had to nitpick, i could say the screen angle and quality is sub par ( Screen is the same for 3 years in a row). Best quality on this device is, the speakers. By far best sounding speakers on a handheld.

While it is not an actual XBOX and you shouldn't expect that, this is absolutely the best overall PC Handheld on the market. The combination of size, ergonomics, and power combined with the fact that the new Xbox Full Screen Experience (XFSE) makes this much easier to navigate from an OS and UI perspective makes this such a delight to use. Really amazed at how this even exists.

I really really hate to hear when people complain about screen size! They all forget that this is a “handheld” device. It shouldn’t be too bulky, big and heavy. What’s the point otherwise!!! Having an LCD screen in 2025 is lame, yes, but it’s not a bad looking LCD screen. There is only one thing you can complain about this device and that is the xbox full screen experience. Let’s all agree, Microsoft sucks. Every single thing they do or make or sell… sucks. So use Armory Crate as full screen experience, and notice the difference. I think performance of this device is very good considering it’s size. I finished Battlefield 6 and COD BO7 on this and it’s been great. Using it as a desktop pc for browsing etc is absolutely great. Personally, i’m keeping this until Steam Deck 2 comes out. Stop listening to people talking about the screen. In fac, ignore them right away

Kinda pricey. Still had some glitches. Works ok overall. Pretty comfy. Kinda thick

By far my best purchase of the year. I didnt own any handheld and im glad i waited. I am basically playing playstation and xbox games in one place. I got the Bulwark and the 140w power adapter. This way i dock it for faster download times and chill gaming sometimes. When it is connected and on turbo it is a beast. If not, it still run all thr games i Throw at it pretty well.

I am very happy with the Xbox Ally X. It's a leap forward for Windows on handhelds and is exactly what I was hoping for. It's not without flaws and bugs in the Full Screen Experience, I give it 5 stars for the leaps it's made and because it is a great experience most of the time. It's already being improved and I'm sure they'll continue to make it better.

Easily the best handheld gaming device you can buy. It's not cheap, but it's a full on gaming PC in your hand with Microsoft's new Windows optimizations for handhelds, included. Both native and cloud gaming work great on the device. I've been playing games from the Xbox library (Indiana Jones, Outer Worlds 2) and Steam (Ghosts of Tsushima), and they look beautiful and play great.

Great machine with excellent premium materials great performance
