We’re in a generation where a small handheld device is more powerful than my laptop that I used to code on during college days.. time flies so fast.

Despite the steam deck being kinda mid, Valve deserves credit for kicking off the handheld PC movement and motivating competitors.

I will say- I am super glad that vavle released the steam deck. It reignited the handheld pc market and I am all here for it. Not everyone has a good way to play at home, so stuff like this is amazing to me

I can’t stop playing games on this thing, already have double the amount of games than I had on my Steam deck. Ally gang LETS GO!

Got windows 10 on the steam deck, works decent with some software tricks but the rog ally looks like it would be a nice upgrade down the line

Thank you so much for this review. I've watched many reviews on this device and everyone complains about Windows 11 without even going into why. I love that your review literally touches upon how Windows 11 makes it compatible with not just Steam, Xbox Game Pass, etc but also any PC software as well. Thanks again! Subscribed :D

love the rog since day one, it has made me a pc gamer. ive been console my entire life. I dock it and use it as my main pc.

I have no idea how I missed your channel. But the good thing is I have a decent back catalogue to watch 😊 Keep up the great work!

[mcwaller]

Love the Ally and it’s been flawless since day 1 (bought it when it released in mid-June)

Mines great, with updates it gets better and am sure over time it will. Not ran into any issues but I don't play any competitive games on this, which is probably why it doesn't over heat. Most mine gets up to is 70c.

[Liessshy]

Mine was a dud. Overheated constantly & got so hot it put a burn on my finger, had the worst screen tear in every game that was installed on it (with vsync on and set correctly), wouldn't boot up multiple times, controllers/on deck buttons not working in games, the list goes on. Really sad I got a dud. Got a refund though and I think I'll wait for another generation of one before I buy it again 🙃

Nice review. I absolutely love mine! Had it for over a month now. I'm using it as a backlog machine. For example, I have the Tomb Raider Trilogy that I got from Epic Games for free and I completed the first two games on it flawlessly. To put it into perspective, I'm a pc gaming enthusiast and have a desktop with RTX 3080 and a laptop with 3080 as well (my gf is also a gamer, so we do co-op) and I've been playing the ROG Ally about 80% of the time since having it. The battery life is trash, but I also go full tilt and play on Turbo mode and have multiple high watt chargers at my house so it's a non-issue. I'm excited to see how the gaming handheld market develops in the coming years as like you, I'm a handheld gamer at heart as the Game Boy Color was my first console way back in the day.

[Glocktopus]

Been loving mine since day one! Using it for my single player backlogs and lots of retro emulation

[loganbfabbro]

Just bought one! Seems better than my old pc and I want to get back into games so it seems perfect!

[wandilemkhize]

There's this misconception that the Ally is the first windows handheld pc for gaming yet companies like GPD and Aya to name a few have been doing this for years. GPD has been releasing devices and quality devices at that since 2016. Its just that its one big company that's now into making handhelds.

Your reviews are really cleeeean 👌🏻 keep up the content creation my guy!

[JhuJhustine]

i LOVE MY ROG Ally. bought it on Day 1. upgraded to the 2TB SSD from aliexpress and never looked back.

[EdwardMitchell]

I appreciate your honest review. I've had mine for a while now and prefer it over my rtx3070 laptop, love this thing

[nyjay]

Honeymoon phase is over w this thing for me. Ready to sell it whenever a better option comes. Barely 2 months having it, and issues keep popping up. Asus QC and communications are poor as well.

[sebastianhernandez]

Great video with a lot of my questions answered. Awesome charizard skateboard btw!
