Why The ROG Ally X is a Casual Gamer’s Dream.

This is the first PC gaming handheld I got and it's changed gaming for me. After a few weeks with the ASUS ROG Ally X, here are my review, honest thoughts, and experience with the Ally X as a first-time PC handheld user and how it stacks up against the Steam Deck. What are your thoughts on handheld gaming?

Why The ROG Ally X is a Casual Gamer’s Dream

[AndrewEthanZeng]

*A couple things:*
1. Thanks for the recommendations to install Bazzite, definitely going to give it a go!
2. The rattling stopped the day after unboxing it. I opened up the device to see what caused it but found nothing unordinary. If you buy a unit and run into a similar issue, 100% recommend sending it back for a replacement. I'll let you guys know if anything else happens with it in the long term review.

Anwyay, back to getting my ass whooped in Sifu for the 100th time 💀

I can totally relate to your experience. A few years ago I spent so much time gaming and now all of a sudden I can barely find any time to sit down and get through my backlog. It's a real shame. While I have and enjoyed the Switch, it doesn't allow me to play triple A titles on the go and I just couldn't afford building a full gamer PC setup. So the ROG ally fits the bill perfectly and was cheaper than a full build with quality monitor. As a portable handheld I managed to now find some time playing the game in-between work or during lunch breaks. "Gamer".

Really enjoy your review and lot of important key point about the hardware. Keep it up 👍.

Gamer! Good video, try the Ally X with Bazzite

[tritonh]

For me first was the Deck. Changed the way I played games. Then Rog Ally came out, I picked it up right the at and started Diablo 4 and then went on and finished so many AAA games with crystal clear picture at 60+ fps. Battery was never really an issue. But having that huge gain in 1% low for a lot AAA titles, I just might pick this one up.

My doubt is whether Asus will treat the new Ally as a finished product, as they do with their cell phones. Or whether it will be a console, which receives updates and improvements over time, so that games continue to run on the same product for an entire console generation, like the steam deck...? P.S. great review and homage to the traditional gameboy.

Original Gameboy was the best back then. Even my father bought his own 😂

[SouravPaul-jgco]

Very relexing to watch!nicely narrative.

[dirkwood]

The internal fans getting loud and warm.. must have a defective unit.

I barely hear mine or feel warmth.. even on turbo mode

[chaeugene]

This makes me miss the old classic Game Boy! Great video, gamer! 😁

[liamfeatherstone]

The old ROG ally case fits the new Ally X in just snug to be honest

[TylerLingard-gunw]

Why do people say steam armory crate is clunky ? I never have any problems with it . I’m enjoying it on my original z1 extreme never had a problem

[AwwsmGaurav]

That rattling doesn't seem normal tbh I'd be worried even though it stopped, we don't know it'll pose any problem in future,

And considering asus warranty drama that just happened, I'd have returned it within the replacement period rather than dealing with warranty process later...

You're daring to give it a chance, I assume you have a lot of money maube that's why, and im not saying that in mean way... I would have asked for different unit.

#Gamer great video dude, I just subscribed.

[rocknflip]

1:30 oh man I’d be super pissed about that 🤦‍♂️

[ayna]

I've seen other people with that same rattling on the rog ally subreddit

[liskovdenis]

Отличное видео . Спасибо за распаковку и поверхностный обзор

[happy-atmeal]

If any of the tactile components of this thing gets worn out - joystick, buttons, etc, you're relying on Asus providing long term support to stop this from turning into an $800 brick. Valve has a better record for providing support, and the Legion Go comes apart so you could simply get new controllers.

ive seen multiple reviews and their only complaint is the operating system which i never see as valid since you can easily install any other operating system, i would definitely install a non bloated version of windows 10 like ghost spectre light. will give u so much more room for performance and fps

[ionrazvan]

Question. Do you have to pay monthly subscription to be able to play online? I have diablo 2 on nintendo switch and to play online i need to pay that gold
