Asus ROG Ally - Long-term Review

VRR is almost as important as battery life. Those stutters get to you after a while.

Bro please do a video of Asus Eog Ally X vs Lenovo Legion Go… im really struggling about what kind of handheld i should get, more screen or more battery life 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Also is the rog ally x better in Performance now then the legion go cause of the 24GB RAM?

I love my ROG ally. It has a great display, performance and it runs absolutely all my games on Steam and xcloud. The only downside is the battery life.

I plan to use an ROG Ally for schoolwork

lenovo la-ging-go????????

I plan to use this as a Desktop Windows 11 gaming-ish computer, and take it on the go/to the living room only sometimes or for short periods, taking the dock with to hotels or friends houses. i only want to emulate vintage games PS2/maybe xbox360 and back and some older pc games like beamng drive garrys mod Minecraft and roblox. I do not care about 120 fps or AAA games that much, all my modern games are on switch. Would you recommend this for my purposes? Would the non extreme version work for me (extreme seems overkill for my needs)? Do they ever go on sale for prime day or black Friday/cyber monday?

If your holding it wrong like this guy is...its not as comfortable.. you hold it right ...its super comfortable.. played it for 5 hours straight. No Fatigue at all.

How can you play God of War 3? I have download RCPS3 by emudeck, but It doesn’t worl well…
Please Help

My ally just arrived today

Battery may suck, but overall the Z1 Extreme device packs a punch for what it is. It plays AAA games with ease, packed with AMD and Windows support and the look, feel and weight seems ideal to me (altho this maybe user specific). Its not a perfect device but overall its 9/10 for me.

In terms of the SD card, i never had any issues with this personally. But if you do, there are plenty or Reddit posts that can fix the issue.

I personally got my Rog for £330 (with a years warranty), so for the price its an excellent pickup.

I don't care if it's bad or not

I love mine

Love this in depth review really good! One thing i don't understand when you said the rog ally is faster than the steam deck but then you said its better to get the he steam deck since they have the same performance?

How are the sticks? Any drift

had to subscribe because of the attention to detail. keep reviewing more tech please

I just got the Z1 variant just to play around and see. I am planning to use it for light gaming while watching TV with the XG Mobile (2021 variant).

Nice keyboard, can you send me a link?

Rog ally is an easy 8.5/10 device

People should stop calling these handheld PC's consoles. They're handheld PC's. They run PC hardware and PC software. They're also completely open and allow you to do whatever you want with them. While it emulates a console experience it is still very different in that it gives you total freedom.

Battery sucks

Listen man. You can get an rog Ally right now for like $350 at Best Buy. I would recommend that over anything even with its flaws. It's still better than spending $800 on an rog x when we all know the Ally 2 is coming next year

I love my ally sold my steam deck. Steam deck is only good for old games. Really struggles to get even 30fps in many games. Been using ally for over a year now I’m lucky or whatever but haven’t got any problems with it. Quick resume works never had a crash. I love playing ps3 gashed on it which steam deck can’t. Not saying steam deck is bad but steam is means no call of duty and FIFA.

One word : VRR ❤️

What tdp and fan furve do you use

have you considered dual booting windows and bazzite on the rog ally? especially if you are concerned with console like experience

Pls make a comparison with switch pro controller,PS5 controller, and Xbox controller

The Last of us Set up tutorials on ROG ALLY next vid

hope there is no RMAs ... Asus is garbage for how it treats its customers.

Still steam deck. Better experience overall. I have ps5 for more demanding games and for cod.

Which version of the rog Ally do you have z1 or z1 extreme

Hey, how many years will Rog Ally support updates, do you think?

Those 1% lows mean that the VRR display isn't really a factor unless it has low framerate compensation. Does it? Is the deadpool game any good?

I had a steam deck, bought a ally and a week later sold my deck, couldn’t be happier with the ally 💙👌

After using the Rog on Fortnite, the controls might be harder to use, but it’s hard to go back to PS5😂😂

steam deck is much better

Is the default sleep mode still broken on the latest software/firmware/BIOS? I heard it had improved a lot since launch. Do the fans only blast for a short period before it properly enters sleep? Hibernate appears to be a decent alternative, but it seems to take a bit longer to wake up than normal sleep would.

I went into buy one yesterday and was really disappointed. I’ve had a switch oled for a little over a year but don’t like that there’s no forza/grand Trismo games or good shooters. Anyway I couldn’t believe how much I disliked it. Floor model froze trying to open forza 4 three times before it finally worked, but by then I’d navigated the machine 3 times and found I hated using windows on a device that size. I just sort of stood there for a few minutes in disbelief that I’d come in to buy this thing, had the money, but realised I didn’t like it. I was stunned

Am I dreaming or it's the second video in 10 days? Max, who the hell do you think you are? Keep it going🫵🤨

destroys steam deck

🤯🤯🤯another one???
