@@hardkore360 wtf are you talking about .. tell me of another connsole from that time that competes with the incredible graphics and power that the psp had. It was literally insane the biggest competition it had was the nintendo ds and that thing sucked!
This system looks sweet and if the leaks price point are true I might be looking at one to put beside my switch. That way I have a portable switch and gamepass. Now if Sony can come with one we have all three. 😂
Hopefully ASUS hard turns on their customer service/shafting direction. I have one preordered, but I'm a little concerned about their recent terrible corporate ethos towards consumers and their products
I should’ve just saved up the extra 300 and got this vs the oled switch I got. It’s great and all but a handheld with windows is fucking insane. This is unbeatable at the moment.
Buying this badboy day 1 if the reviews are good! I'm living in Norway where Steam refuse to sell hardware, so this stands out! Not buying a steamdeck on eBay without any warrent
@@TheRealist1. I'll subscribe to you then, I want to see the impressions of the users and not reviewers (probably mostly all paid) and then see is it worth it to buy!
I'm so exited to get this! My mom might get the new one and if she does, I'll get her old one. I don't care if I end up with an old one because I wanna try out handheld PC gaming.
I'm gonna buy it. I was debating one which and was really leaning towards the steam deck but I love the design and features and weight of the Asus. Plus mynpc is powered by a Asus z390 prime. So I'm a fan of the company
I was thinking about getting on but at my local best buy yhey have more than 9 returned Asus Rog Allys which kinda sounded like a red flag to me. For those that own it. Is it worth the price? Whats the issues with it? Would you recommend over a steam deck?
I want one i wish they would’ve used a 720p oled just because its more powerful but you lose the advantage if you fun it natively at higher resolutions compared to 720p. But i fill like the steam deck is really starting to struggle in new aaa games but maybe it’s because most ports are unoptimized these days. I just expect all the pc ports to run bad sometimes i fill its just easier to buy the ps5 version. But my desktop rig can power through games.(7950x3d 4090) I think jedi survivor is the worst running ports especially if you have a weaker cpu.
@@stickyman3786 I got one, I posted this response before the price announcement. It doesn't have more storage though. I also didn't know Best Buy was on deck, that's a huge boost because of credit offers.

About 55 minutes on turbo mode and highest graphic settings on intensive games. But smooth gameplay. And just play plugged in. Solves issue of battery life
Do you have any idea why I install steam or Xbox game pass games on external ssd, and they don't work.. Only when I install on internal memory they work
@@sadlife2301 the problem is the higher end model has a theoretical 8 teraflops but that’s not gonna be what the rog ally delivers since it’s limited to a 30 watt max tdp and in order to get the 8 teraflops that’s @ around 50 or 55 watts for the chipset……..
If i got this i'd be So content in my life. Thats a dream though. Still it might become true If i worked hard. But i got no motivation to do it anyway and i'm lazy.
I think it’ll fall like every other handheld. PSP already thought of that. And honestly in my opinion. It’s something I’d probably play 2 or 3 times. And then ask myself why I bought this for. Like back when I got the psp
Graphic settings low 720p turbo mode will get you consistent 120FPS. Graphics settings high 1080p turbo will get you 40-70FPS depending on the game you play. Especially those 1 player giant world games. Competitive games like shooters can hit consistent 60FPS+ on high 1080p turbo and easily hit 120FPS consistent on low 720p turbo
Sir I have a question please how’s the battery life can it play gtav without any problem? And please how and where can we order will they ship to Nigeria? I hope you see this and hoping you respond have a nice day ❤️
Such a small screen.. The new AKZOE does it better. Coming from a steam deck i would choose for the AKZOE as an upgrade due to the screen or the ROG needs to be much cheaper
@@slumpy4285 Yes the APU is definitely a benefit. I am one of these people that get worried when my gas tank is below half. With 4gb for the OS, 4gb for VRAM, and 4gb for gaming I get a little nervous. Running Genshin I was reaching 4gb useable and the deck was running hot
Sony PSP was REALLY ahead its time.
Yep, vita too, too bad they didn't properly support the vita..

I love this ASUS ROG ALLY and I am so thankful that it has a full Windows 11 so can also be used for docking and using other useful programs ♥
If a ps vita had no limits and was built as powerful as technology could allow, this would be it. This is damn impressive.

How long were you able to test it? I just want to know what the battery life is looking like?
Its the same as steam deck. With more power hungry specs itll kill the battery even faster

I just bought one today. Fkn aye I love it.
I'm more curious about the modularity of its components; How easily can it be serviced? Will it support windows 10? Stuff like that.
Yes and yes. You can easily replace the thumbsticks for sure they confirmed. The inner components i believe can be swapped as well. Windows 10 yes
They're not as liberal with self service as Valve...
Do you know if the hands on units had the regular Z1 or Z1 Extreme?
Z1 is what was stated
Z1 extreme

Omg.. Its beautiful.. 😧❤️❤️❤️
I hope is worth the wait if not I will get the SD

We are making handheld PCs but can’t make consoles on PCs level with mods available to download for games?

why would you even compare this to the steam deck?
it's has twice as much CPU and GPU power than the steam deck while only being $100 more expensive
This one will run circles around the Steam Deck and it'll have all of the launchers... Yeah, you can do workarounds on the Steam Deck, but it's jank.
Watching on the steam deck lol
I love my steam deck
I want both
@@Th3derekfisherrrif you buy one buy the rog ally not the steam deck
@@stickyman3786why
@stickyman3786 Let's do a comparison, You play the rog and I'll use my deck and we can see which one dies first. It ain't finna be mine
u can turn it into a computer if u connect it to a keyboard, mouse & monitor since it has windows 11
It is a beast!
Just ordered mine
But will there be a way to put um…free games on it easily
I think the Only problem of this portable Gaming is the Battery capacity ... Once this Battery capacity will Increase it will become 100% PERFECT 👌👌👌
does it have sleep mode? when you have to do something quickly and back to gaming afterward
good question! i want to know too, because windows isnt the fastest with lock/sleep
It's Windows based, so unlikely.

Only thing I'm afraid of is what happens when this gets stick drift?

What about the battery life while playing AAA titles in highest resolution ?
About 55 minutes on turbo mode and highest graphic settings on intensive games. But smooth gameplay. And just play plugged in. Solves issue of battery life
My ONLY QUESTION is can i make power poin presentations on it?
Playing Xbox games on the steam deck is something I wish I could do easily
Battle net better run smooth 🤞🏼 looking forward to play D4 portability
One of the reasons i bought it. It should run diablo 720p low settings at 60fps in theory
This tops any Switch
Where can I buy this at? I want one for when I am driving trucks on the road
Best buy it ships june 13. All the ones people have on CZcams are review units.
Where did u bought it from? I wanna buy one can u tell me so I can get mine plz.....

Rog Ally is a bit more advance than the Series S. Devs need to start creating games with these portables in mind
Good handheld console, but I'm hearing about SD cards melting and wish it would come in black.
Why do you need this? Is PS5/XBOX + Big TV/Screen not better for comfy gaming?
Battery life 45 minutes on max video settings

What is the offline capabilities? I need something I can play my downloaded games offline and handle it well
Its s beast that s all i can say its a freaking beast
Funny how your review is far different from others who did. A very deep dive. I suggest you do the same.
AMD is making bank off all these handhelds
I think it’ll fall like every other handheld. PSP already thought of that. And honestly in my opinion. It’s something I’d probably play 2 or 3 times. And then ask myself why I bought this for. Like back when I got the psp
Personally, I hate the look of those bezels.
How long does the battery last unplugged
