*Play All Your Games.* That’s the promise ASUS made with the release of the ROG Ally handheld gaming PC in May 2023. But a year after its release, has the ROG Ally actually lived up to its hype?
Join me as I dive deep into the build quality, comfort, display, software, speakers, gaming performance, battery life, and overall value of the ROG Ally after a year of usage. I’ll also compare it with its newer competitors like the Steam Deck OLED, Legion Go, and MSI Claw.

At work, short answer: Yes. lol
Excellent vid cam!!!🎉
I think the Rog Ally Z1 Extreme is still the best price-to-performance in the handheld PC market, especially if you can get an open-box/refurbished one for around $400-$500. The new Rog Ally X is simply too expensive for what is essentially just a refresh of the previous model. Most people don't need 24GB of RAM for gaming, it would be more for multi-tasking, which you can't really do in handheld mode that well anyways. The extra battery life is the only solid improvement, but it's simply not worth spending almost twice the cost of an open-box Z1 Extreme for a new X. I would rather wait for the 3rd gen model in the future, which I think will have a better iGPU than even the 780m, and offer more processing power. The X is simply not a big enough step up, although it is a nice refinement of what already exists.
Strix Point is launching soon, there will probably be an updated Rog Ally X next spring or even sooner
Thanks. Great video on current state.
Also you can improve the legion go speakers MASSIVELY by downloading fx sound and enable volume boost. The stock tuning sucks . Once i did that the speakers almost sound as good as the ally but not quite because they are upward firing which still sucks
I would love one of these
Just bought one for $360 yesterday definitely worth it no problems at all
Sweet deal 🫡
Oh nice!
@nursemikole Am buying one tomorrow for 380 pounds what do think Is it worth it?
Got it its perfect
PC Gaming is not great. Steam Deck is my 1st PC. Console gamer here. Asus has the infrastructure to be like Nintendo, Xbox or PlayStation. I think Asus and the multiple PC vendors should create a universal system. Docking stations come free when you buy their expensive handheld systems. When you connect to the docking station, TV or monitor is automatically turn on with the pc handheld going max input and fans sounding like a ps3. When I undock. It automatically changes the settings to the game for handheld gaming.
Enough of my rant. My deck fell and is getting fixed. But debating on selling it and buying the ally x so I just have one system for all the games not on my Nintendo switchand my Nintendo switch.
So you basically want a beefed up switch ? Thats the magic of PC being able to tweak your settings tweak the graphics ect you should get a real PC
@@YOUNGJBR Z1 Extreme by default settings. That’s what PC gaming needs. Also man there’s so many launchers. It’s insane lol. That’s why I’m confused when PC gamers complained about PS logins. Most triple A games require it from other publishers.
I agree that windows is not ideal for gaming especially on a handheld. But tbh the only entity that can truly remedy that issue is Microsoft themselves. We need an XboxOS that can organize all the games from Steam, Gamepass, epic, Ubisoft, and so on (similar to Steam OS) Would be me much easier to navigate. But not sure Microsoft wants to do that but docking is being resolved with the ally X because it’s including two usb4 ports so you won’t have to buy a dock at least, but would just need an hdmi to usbc adapter and power cable plugged in.
Nice! But that price tag though...
They don't use Hall effect Joystick on ROG ALLY X?
All I’ve heard is that they improved the thumb stick plastic and made them easier to swap out I think
I am screwed right now lol some how the rog ally thumstick FELL of and then somehow glue got into it sonnow the stick is stuck
Got one for $350, it's great so far
Sweet deal brother 🫡
608g vs 800 it's not worth the sacrifice? well for me it does every g less it's better for longer playing with less fatigue on hands
That was just a b roll clip ripped from an advertisement. The Ally X has more ergonomic grip and it’s only 678g in comparison.
Bro... you should have waited. Ally x is about to drop and has usb 4 with 32 gigs of ram. That usb4 is a game changer for cheaper external graphics.
Ally X does not have 32 gigs of ram
24gb RAM*
@borky1987 Either way, you're not bound to a $1900 egpu. I'm sure 8gb vram with 16 for system will perform better than 8.
I mention this in the video :)
Upgrade? Sidegrade? Who knows?
m'y micro sdcard still doesnt work .
Does it work in other devices?
@@KillerCam1020 no not even on my computer it doesnt work , even with cardreader doesnt work , only one of my 3 cards only recorded screen shots on my ally ! i think its a windows problem .
@@KillerCam1020 they all work on smartfones and tablets but not on windows 10 and 11 ! bill gates is so stupid !
What game is this 8:40
Do you mean just before @ 8:30? Thats Hellblade II: Senua’s Saga
@@KillerCam1020 good game ?
Eh. I’d recommend trying it on game pass it’s gorgeous, but it’s not for everyone.
destroy all your sd cards
Since my SD card is solely used for emulation and has failed numerous times, the fan curves are not reducing the overheating of the SD card reader. This is just Asus talking shit
They’ve mentioned something recently about how it’s something to do with the power delivery to the sd card slot idk. But long story short they offered an even more extended warranty since this video had gone up
Even sd lcd better than ally x
Asus are scumbags, they never fixed the micro sd issue. They simply chose to ignore it. I never played heavy pc games but i think it stopped working on mines because it would never update unless i removed it
I actually heard that if you have a system that hasn't had the SD card fried yet, adding a few layers of thermal paste to the top of it can prevent it from being destroyed.
