A yo Floos thank you for doing a inbox of that system. I know That I asked you to do a little while ago but thank you
This guy's reviews are great! He might not have the fancy transitions like the bigger reviewers but his reviews always seem genuine and unbiased
I agree ... I always come back .. its just him .. I remember when he had the army table print .. sometimes some people over do it .. but shout out to all
Cheers Fellas 🥂
Floss got nearly 2 million subscribers and been in the game over a decade. I'd consider him a bigger reviewer, but the only real reviewer.
Not having the fancy transitions makes it feels more realistic and shows everything
No other reviewer does a smell test though
I already have an ROG Ally, I just came to watch Floss have fun playing games.
Steam deck better
Would the battery last longer if you turned the RGB lights off?
@@Novemberz_Own78 I don’t think so it would not make but maybe 30 minutes difference
Man of culture
What are your thoughts on it?
"Casual Gamer"... but proceeds to beat the shit out of his opponent and also perform a brutality.
😂😂😂😂😂
😂
Flossy is so chill and down to earth he's straight to the point. Love it.
I still prefer my Steam Deck but i have my eye on this but the battery life is horrendous.
Thanks my friend! Yeah the steam definitely has better battery
You can set the screen to 60hz and run your games at 15 watts if you want to match steam deck battery settings
I love my Steam Deck. Diablo 4 from my couch is magic.
@@blackpanthertchallalem8522I heard it doesn't run well at those settings. I don't have one so a can't confirm it.
@jdgreen214 they was fixed with an update. But your right at first it did have some issues but not terrible. But the updates match and I believe are more efficient then the steam deck at 15w
I got a great deal on a SteamDeck, so I'm sticking with that, but I am really glad to see the handheld market take off. Great review as always, and I think it sold me on getting Street Fighter 6.
The iGPU is a Radeon 780M. There are devices being released for the same price with the 680M. The CPU & iGPU in this device is incredibly capable. If you don't have a desktop PC or laptop, you can plug this thing in to a monitor, keyboard, & mouse and use it like a regular desktop.
I haven’t picked up my Deck since grabbing this Ally. That screen and the speakers with those graphics…man it’s so nice. The battery is Ass though. But when it dies, I go take a piss, scroll IG baddies, grab a drink and by then it’s charged back up to 100%
Floss thank you for reviewing it from a CASUAL gamers standpoint! I respect all the benchmarkers and super technical RUclipsrs, but normal people like you and I need to see this.
I absolutely love my ROG Ally. Fkn rips through everything and used with the dock w Bluetooth keyboard / trackpad it's straight up a desktop replacement! So much value for $699
If I hadn't bought the ROG Zephyrus G14 earlier this year, I would've bought the Ally & used it as a desktop replacement. It's shockingly powerful. My laptop has the Radeon 680m iGPU in it, & that thing can run 98% of games just fine, & the 780m in the Ally is about 25-30% better.
For everyone who gets this device, I highly recommend finding a video on adjusting the registry key and power profiles. I followed one and my temps dropped by 10 - 20 degrees! Much better for sustained usage if you're using turbo so you dont cook your SD card slot.
I’ve been interested in this. I got the Steam deck already but am very excited to see how competition drive the market to preform better.
Picking mine up after work today! Flossy never disappoints
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS FLOSS!!! My nephew just made it into High School and I've been wanting to reward him with something like this but I wasn't sure what the difference was. This really helps me narrow down my decision. Also, Mark Rivea (spell check) is always my favorite part of your videos, I love his energy! Salut!
@@daniyalaamir1779yikes
The ROG Ally have already displaced a lot of my other consoles use, and even my laptop. Despite all the early bugs and issues that have surfaced online about it, I still believe it has a lot of potential.
Fr shit is glued to my hands fr . Wish there were ways to customize it more.
How about the bugs other RUclipsrs are talking about. Or the battery life?
Can you play a Call of Duty with it? How does it run?
@@KhadejiacatYes, been playing MW 2019 and MW 2 on it just fine🔥 and Destiny 2 if you’re into that as well!
@@bryanbalderas8672que tal la bateria ?
Great device to take on the go. I've been playing it a lot on breaks at work and business trips.
I am so glad you are reviewing this unit. I have had mine since launch I was just curious how other people feel.
How do you like yours?
The Ally is so cool, but it's ridiculously expensive over here in Ireland.
Cheapest Deck here is €400, cheapest Ally is €850 from what I've seen. Major respect to the Ally, but I'm happy with the value for money my steam deck has been giving me.
On top of that the performance is not much better. Heavy games are maybe 20-50 percent faster, but in some cases Steam Deck has better performance thanks to preloaded shaders and overall Valve support while Rog will shutter. Plus much better battery life. Its just nobrainer for half the money.
@@johnhorak200020-50 percent is very significant, especially when paired with vrr. However in battery life it absolutely does beat the ally.
Been waiting for my boy flossy on this.
Was not disappointed.
Man Floss, I've been trying to convince my 'daddy duty' friends that they need to get this or the Steam Deck. I know both are great (and I have the Steam Deck), but I know from their perspectives the 'full Windows experience' is probably overkill. They would ONLY use it for gaming - so the Steam Deck would be perfect. Deck Dads all day.
Alright nerd glasses on - That said - the ONLY downside is that 'full Windows experience' is a LOT easier when installing/adding non-Steam games or otherwise - because it's a laptop at that point. On the Steam Deck there are too many hoops you have to go through to add games like Diablo 4, or any launcher for that matter are just almost too much of that 'Linux experience'. Too much odd install processes and such.
I wish I had this when I was on Dad Patrol 😂
I have a deck, because the 'full Windows experience' would put me into a mental asylum ;-).
@@bloepje Accurate. Haha
@@FlossyCarter Man that’s the truth right there.
People need to stop recommending the steam deck to people att this point
One of the greatest tech reviewers… God bless,
Been interested in getting a portable PC like this. Been wanting to know if this is worth it today compared to others for its price and sleekness. I’m tempted , but am unsure because it is pricey. Hopefully you see this, I would love your opinion. I know you must get tons of comments (and it’s an older video) Have a good one !!!
Getting the rog was the easiest choice for me. Was excited for the deck, realized you can’t add mods by placing in root folder hence why I dislike the deck. You can install windows, but that’s a task. Once rog came out, got it three weeks after it came out. The performance is fucking crazy. Basically like having a rtx 3050 in a handheld. Most people don’t know how to utilize it tho yet which is crazy. I am a pc nerd so that could be why
So how does utilize it if i may ask
Great review! I play on the "Performance" setting all the time, mainly Call of Duty and I get a little over two hours of battery life which is plenty for me! This is a great handheld and will improve in time.
11:00 OMG Marc is the best, and this sound test is hype af! Loving my Ally as well, it’s the whole friggin package fr
This is the video I was waiting for even though I got myself an Ally. Sold my Steam Deck but I want to hear Floss input on the Ally
I literally never comment on videos but your child like laughter when you started playing these games reminded me of that feeling of being a kid getting that first Nintendo in the 80’s…. This device truly made me giddy too!!!
I'm not a gamer. I found this review to be very informative and enjoyable ❤.
I approve this review 💯 percent
Flossy king of reviews. Keeping it casual for us casuals ❤
Floss!! Love my Ally. Took some time and got it fine tuned. Took the windows bloat out of it. Set up a manual mode to control the wattage and graphics. And got the Gyros working. A major, major, go!!!
Literally just saw this on Facebook and decided to jump on RUclips to look it up and there floss was never disappointing. Didn't even have to search
Still happy with my Steam Deck. It is plenty good enough until the next gen deck. Great vid as always Floss!
Same. Rog ally looks nice but just got my steam deck around $400 bucks couple months ago. Plays any new game and the screen is so small it looks great at 800p. Decent fps i get 45-49 fps on miles morales, god of war etc. already installed retro arch and have all emulators and roms from snes,n64,ps1,ps2,gamecube gba etc all run flawless👌. Also heard steam deck performs much better at lower wattage (e.g emulators) and battery last ten fold longer. Its a much more versatile device specially with the mouse touch pads👌
Yeah I have both and getting 30 fps on low on AAA on the deck gets frustrating really fast. The Aly is on another planet
@@JBentham1523 i get 45-49fps on medium. Even high doesnt dip below 42-43fps. Maybe yours is defective? Have you installed cryo utilities?
100p more resolution and 10 more fps is hardly “on another planet” on a already small 7inch non oled screen. Def not worth double the price😂
At that point id just turn on my gaming pc and play ultra, 4k on my OLED panel 😂 now thats on another planet(;
@@OGkush69x don't lie you never have 45 fps on medium or high on God of war. Even on 720p with fsr ultra performance (image looks uglier than 240x320 ps3) you hit maximum 40 fps on low at start, 30 fps on big demanding moments
Same. This is impressive but still on the pricer side for what you get.
Just bought this 2 days ago. Hoping to play starfield on it while I’m deployed. I’ll probably have to lower the specs a lil to play it but idc
That’s one of the main reasons I’m buying this. I wanna play star field on a portable device!
I was waiting to hear you review this! I got an all ASUS ROG pc build. I'm getting this for sure! Staying in the ASUS ROG ecosystem!
A good power bank for this is the base us 65 watt power bank from Amazon.
Was hoping Floss would review the Asus ROG Ally. Got a good deal on mine and have been enjoying it ever since I bought it. 100% agree on liking it better than the Steam Deck. Still keeping the Steam Deck though. Thanks Floss!
Oh what kind of deal?
@estebancw4765 Not the greatest deal but $657.99 open box excellent from Best Buy. It was the weekend of the release, so I knew it hadn't been beat up. They only had one in store, so I checked it out and brought it home. No issues whatsoever except the user error of me learning how to use it.
Although Flossy reviews are extremely detailed with everything from full specs sheet to on hand functionality the man keeps it so real every god damn time its like you’re just hanging out with a friend learning about what you are about to spend a shitload of money on. Love this channel, hands down the best reviewer out there!
Seen these reviewed by owners or interested people on Facebook ..but this is one of the reviews I have been waiting for ,as I love flossy’s reviews
Thanks my friend
Of course a gaming review brings me back to the Floss.
Love you Floss! Thanks for always making unbiased and authentic reviews and never changing your way! Keep doing what you doing 😎
I appreciate that!
Yo Flossy, awesome video as always, thank you! Nice to see that you're enjoying some cool gaming handhelds!
Floss, i remember watching you the first time when you reviewed htc phone and now you've got million subs. Time flies 😅
That thing freezes up way too much had to return mine not to mention all the updates you need to do when you first get it.
I have a Steam Deck already but I’m mostly watching because I enjoy Floss’s reviews.
Bro I literally was watching this in my car. This dude has so much funNY to watch I had to find him on my phone to subscribe
My only worry would be the joysticks and the buttons . Having used a lot of Xbox controllers which have the same layout which go bust in few months
Modern controllers am I right, old PS2 controllers you have to rotate the sticks to fix the stupid drift, now we're here replacing new controllers every few months, especially you joycons 😔
Steam Deck has my heart. But I like the competition that's out now with these handhelds. I remember handhelds died after PS Vita, then Switch saved the day for years. Now this.
The steam deck is a way better option for casual gamers. Who want a Consol experience. There’s a lot more involved with getting your games up and running on a windows based machine, especially having to do that on a handheld device would be annoying as hell.
You can connect a RTX 4090 extension through that proprietary port but you can't take advantage of it on a screen that small. However, it can and will make the ar glasses experience more exciting.
I was so bummed to hear they used a proprietary connection versus going with the standard Thunderbolt eGPU connection. I mean, I get it, but it was definitely something I was watching for...and of course ASUS just tossed in a wrench
@@chasenhorizons also overpriced wtf, it's not even the desktop gpu's, it's the mobile version.
@@Jaxv3r Oh wow, just looked that up and you’re right! Asus really dropped the ball on this eGPU-lite extender. No future upgrade path either - and it’s expensive
Asus need to make one in black, I'd buy in an instant.
The ROG ally looks really beautiful but I’m not feeling the white colour being the only option.
Anyway, been hearing rumours about realme coming out with their foldable this year. Hope when it does release, you’ll check it out.
Asus kinda dropped the bag by not releasing CAD files to dbrand and other manufacturers so that cases and skins could be made by release. So now we’re stuck waiting after release for more accessories.
@@Mzz_401 I got a love hate relationship with steam because they have a lot of issues with their platform. But I might give this device some thought when my bonus hits. Let’s see if those accessories come out
@@Mzz_401 dbrand has already decided they are not going to make any skins for the Ally, the vent design is too complex to guarantee most consumers a good result.
At least the white color serves a thermal purpose when you use it on the go.
@@slave2tennis2006what issues?
@@xyon-jp8eh its game sync with other brands like EA
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE Gz!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
😂 This a Tech Vlog you don't have to try to soung Gangsta , " Gz " .
@@ctnative203 FUCK IS YOU TALKING ABOUT WEIRDO!🤣🤣🤣 FUCK OUTTA HERE LAME🤣🤣🤣
I work at best buy at and they had a discount on black friday and plus my employee discount it was an offer i could not refuse and i am happy with it.
As usual amazing review, I’ve watchedtons of videos about this unit and non of them talked about watching videos, streaming services etc, thanks Floss flawless!
Just picked up my ally from Best Buy and randomly picked your video to listen to on the way home. You covered exactly what I needed to know, do those AR glasses work for it! Hell yea!!!! Thank you for this video
Love love my Steam Deck, currently my fav device. Thx for the vid Floss
That right there! Thanks for that. I've seen so many reviews based off the model that was sent from ASUS to the reviewer. This is the first where some one actually bought a unit and reviewed. I learned more here.
This looks beautiful. The steam deck looks kinda whack tbh
Bro I’m so glad you’re enjoying it!! Honestly my machine has been pretty frustrating for me. But seeing you having fun with it it’s awesome!
Thanks for the review. I was debating on this and the steam deck and possibly have decided on this. The battery life sucks but I’m so used to my OG switch only lasting 2 hours anyway I’ll manage
Absolutely love my nreal. Bought it after I saw your review. Definitely would be awesome with this.
yeah the T bag button works Ayo 22:41 😂😂💀
Only real scumbags got that joke 😂😂😂😂😂
that sound test LMAO im dying
Be careful brother do not install memory card we're waiting for a new update to fix damaging memory cards and etcetera
I bought it I'm playing it at work every night I love it... Oh I just hate the back buttons so I forgot to mention that
Bought this for my self yesterday as a Christmas present and I am absolutely stunned by this device…. The imperfections like the battery and small bugs is what sold me as it’s realistic and logically make sense. As a console gamer I can say this device is absolutely revolutionary and steers me more away from console gaming and portable pc gaming ! The future is looking bright
Side note, I think a device like this is the start to the end of confusion and console wars. One place for everything, on the go too ? I can’t believe this thing exists as early as 2023
Man is a beast at KI on the Ally, Jesus, great stuff! Just got my rog for mass effect legendary edition. LOVING IT! Only downside is battery, but I bought a portable charger that’s in the mail, otherwise handheld is uncontested IMO.
Couldn't agree more!
You have to get the Asus ROG Ally travel case, so when you go down to Florida to visit Ahmya you can take it with you.
Why is the battery soooooooooooooooooo bad on this thing? I’m lucky to get two hours even using cheap emulators
I also want a pair of Nreal Air 😅... But... If you can get your hands on a pair of ROKID AIR MAX ... I will love to see your review 😉
“On a scale of 1-10, I give this a major major major go” I do not have my flossy carter conversion chart for that 😂 great review as always.
Ordered one immediately after boss Flossy review.
Floss.. Mach Hommy Or Billy Woodz ? Who takes the W
Thanks for the review Floss, been enjoying my Ally as well
Who remember when floss would do his video with every blade or knife that he would use to open his unboxing videos? 😭😭 I miss when he would talk about his blades, u should bring them back @Flossycarter 😭
Got mine 2 weeks ago been waiting for your thoughts
Always feels like home when watching Floss make a review. He could review cereals and it would be refreshing to watch. Thanks again big bro.
Problem with the glasses is.. you can't charge the Ally while using since there's only one port. So it's like 50-60 minutes of a AAA game.
You can get a charge & play adaptor to charge the Ally or Deck while using the Airs glasses.
You can get an adapter from Viture that allows for charging and use of glasses such as Xreal.
Ally looks great but companies sleeping on the steam deck track pads. They are amazing. Especially for non AAA games which if you are a member of the PC master race you play a lot of Indy games and need those track pads. Track pads are a game changer.
Ally is good for your AAA console games they launch on PC at same time.
Great review Floss. You killing the game. I wish you could review everything in my life. I miss cooking with Floss. We need a summertime cooking out with Floss!!!
first time watching. likin the cut of your jib. straight to the point to the point no faking. thanks for the honest and straightforward review.
Cut of your jib? You’re a man of culture is see 😂
Welcome to the channel my friend, cheers 🥂
@FlossyCarter if you like the nreal glasses you should try the Viture. They are much better.
Hopefully we can get more gaming floss content. I love watching MK or street fighter streams 🤣
I upload videos of MK, Asphalt, and many other games video gameplay on my channel.
been waiting for this, thanks Floss!
Flossy on the plane seat, lookin like Robocop😎
😂😂😂😂
I still prefer the steam deck. I upgraded my SSD to a 2TB for Steam Games. But I also have a 1TB SanDisk Extream running Windows 10 Pro So I can Play Call of Duty while im at work
That custom sound test by Marc 🤣🤣
The speakers sound good 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sunday Savagery! Please bring it back Floss !!! I loved that series. Big love to you & white shoes. Great video. Kindest regards, Richard U.K
I already have an ROG Ally absolutely love this device !
Aye I haven’t seen one of your vids in a minute, I forgot how much I enjoy your review content. But I finally I have something you’re reviewing I’m loving my ally, getting the dock steps up it’s value as well. Keep up the good work floss
Thanks brother
Great commentary gave a little bit of funny quarks which was dope. I liked that it was a casual game player so you could actually see the game function see the different tips and tricks I think this was well documented. The glasses are Fire a must cop a pair
Got one and also have the steam deck. I Like both but the steam deck still has the ease of use. But I'm getting really used to the rog. And i didn't have to jump thru hoops to play call of duty.
Didn't think I'd see you do gaming Floss! Now you're my one-stop shop. Gotta go watch your review of the Deck!
Great review I have a steam deck already and I’ve decided not to spend almost double for a handheld that’s not any better
Maybe watch the video again. Better in every way except battery
@@Danarchy3i was gonna say this thing is insane
Great review! Prefer your style compared to other reviewers. You kept it very real and no bs.
As a PC gamer, this and Steam deck are really good handheld PC devices to play my PC games on Steam, Gog, etc. Great review bro :) I still have my old PSP and PS3 rocking which I sometimes power on.
The PSP is decades older than this yet more sleek in terms of design etc
You can also connect to a monitor, and use it as a computer. I'm definitely getting this.
This is a real review unlike others too fancy and all their face on the whole videos which is unnecessary...very simple straightforward
Thanks my friend
Ahhhh my boy floss always good to see ya. Hope that EDC knife game is still vibing
My collection is getting bigger!
Good video brutha! Good demo too. Much appreciated. I just got one to
Glad I could help!
Is this better than the Steam Deck im thinking about purchasing one of these for pc gaming on the go?
Depends on what you need. Ally is the emulation king for sure. If battery life is what you need the Deck might be better.
Also depends what kind of games you play, e.g. Destiny 2, MW2 2022 not supported on the Deck cause of Linux.
Plenty of comparisons, but both advantages and disadvantages for both.
@@eyb0ssbattery life is not not the main priority I will be having a portable charger around me or an outlet most of the time I’m leaning towards the Ally because of the display and form factor the steam deck looks too big and heavy for small hands.
@@MaxAndersonn sounds like it will be the better system for your use case scenario.
If you do buy it, enjoy it 🙂
@@eyb0ss yeah good thing I waited for the Asus to come out I almost bought the steam deck when the hype was at its peak
@@MaxAndersonn I bought in day one to the Deck, got mine in April last year and still don't regret it. I would get the Ally but Windows just isn't there yet for me IMO, dual booting on the Deck works for me for now.
