    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

    Bought 2 - one for my son - one for my daughter. Both of them love them! It was their favorite Christmas gift. We did a cross country Christmas trip and they used them constantly. It is a lot for than just a gaming machine. It is a full blown computer. They used it for games, homework, and movies.

    I love it. I would not suggest this device to someone who is not tech savvy. It has power issues with sleep especially when playing games. It is powerful enough to play most any game I have access to.

    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.

    Decent handheld but the price is high.

    I like the rog xbox ally x, its fun to use but the operating system makes some clunky use at times. Its nice to have the ability to use the ea app, battle.net and epic and everything, but it is very clunky and has to open apps and sometimes it will make the game half soze and sometimes the only way to get it full screen again is to restart the game. I have one of these when it forst came out and i returned it after 3 weeks. The price tag is tough to swallow, it works but still isnt perfected. I havent tried the othes handheld pcs but the ps portal is extremenly comfortabke and nice but it is very laggy with input and at times the lag just from remote play is so bad a game is unplayable. So i chose to try this again and bought a new one and i am having more fun with it this time around and i have had it about a month but at almost 110p with tax its still hard to swallow. I use it about 2 to 3 hours a week.

    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.

    Love how easy it was to play games but wasn't what I expected. It was kinda heavy while playing in bed but using it in desktop mode would have some glitches. At the end of day it was great at some games but not the games that I would play.

    Very portable gaming pc in a hand held, but it has some software issues very minor ones but they’re there. Other than that it handles all games pretty well. It is pretty heavy so holding it up is tedious at times.

    Has been an extremely great product. Every update has more features very powerful. Just make sure when you’re done with the games on Steam to read that it’s capable of using a game pad other than that perfect product.

    Overall, the controller style grips are fantastic. Screen is nice but nowhere near as good as tbe Legion Go. Windows version of big screen mode works. I found that a kot of my games start to screen tear, and had to do quite a bit of settings tinkering. Cannot get GOG games to detect the controller. Overall, mid. Not terrible yet nothing to gloat about.

    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.

    Top of the line gaming handheld.

    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.
