perfect for casual gamers

is really comfortable to use. Most games go straight to a mode that allows them tonrun smoothly and easily. The windows microsoft change can be improved and the memory is gonna be a problem if you wanna use it as main console. Bus for me is just perfect

Great potential, but still feels unfinished

I really wanted to love the ROG Ally Xbox Edition — the hardware design and screen are excellent. The 7-inch 120 Hz display is bright, smooth, and sharp, and the AMD Ryzen chip handles most modern games surprisingly well for a handheld. Performance in lighter titles like Hades or Halo Master Chief Collection is smooth and enjoyable, and the device feels solidly built. That said, it still has a few major drawbacks. Battery life is short — I’m usually lucky to get two hours of gaming — and the fan can get loud under load. Armoury Crate SE and Windows 11 still feel clunky for handheld use; I often need to plug in a mouse just to manage updates or switch between launchers. It’s also easy to run into driver quirks or performance drops unless you keep everything updated manually. If you’re comfortable tweaking settings and want the freedom of a Windows handheld, it’s powerful and fun. But if you prefer a simple, console-like experience, the Steam Deck OLED or Lenovo Legion Go might feel more polished right now. Pros: Excellent screen, strong performance, premium feel Cons: Poor battery life, noisy fan, buggy software

Dear Anonymous,<br /><br /><br />Thank you for your feedback.<br /> <br />We do understand your disappointment with the battery life and the inconvenience this may have caused if the fan gets louder under heavy load. The battery life is expected to be around 2 to 3 hours for AAA gaming in performance or turbo mode, a[proximately 4 hours in silent mode for non-gaming activities. Regarding your concern with the fan getting louder, this is normal while it is under heavy loadto prevent the device from overheating. When you run demanding games or applications, the internal components (specifically the CPU and GPU) generate more heat, which triggers the fan speed to maintain safe operating temperatures and performance. <br /> <br />Should you need further assistance with the product, please email me at cl-rodel&#64;asus.com and I would be more than happy to help. Or, you are most welcome to call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent from the link:https://www.asus.com/us/support/article/1135/.<br /><br />Thank you for choosing an ASUS product.<br /><br />Regards, <br /> <br />Rodel<br /><br />ASUS Customer Loyalty

Xbox Ally

Yes, there's more powerful handheld gaming PC, besides even just the X variant %26 yes, I've have/had them, however if you're looking for something affordable, that acts almost like the Steam Deck, with it's streamlined experience, but with Windows %26 it's better game title compatibility, as well as it's superior productivity abilities vs that of Steam OS, then this is the one to get. Yeah, it could have been $50 cheaper, I'd agree, but it is what it is.

Some games won't be able to transfer from your console to rog xbox ally account. You'd have to buy them on steam or the pc Verizon.

Wonderful gaming system

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Came tightly and securely packaged. Set up was easy even though it did need to be charge before hand. Very lightweight and easy to grip. Has the same exact interface as an Xbox
