For me, an excellent device if you are not a demanding gamer, or if you have another gaming PC / console. Ideal for travel or work. But if you want to play more demanding titles at full power, I wouldn' t count on more than half an hour of playing on the battery. Nowadays, it is possible to connect a charger almost everywhere. There is no case or packaging in the package, so I recommend buying one, ideally with a stand, which is sorely lacking here.
A versatile device
High performance for its size
Stackable
You can dock and connect a monitor and other accessories = a full-fledged PC
Comfortable to hold
the levers feel cheap, but after more than half a year of use, they still work great
At full power, it lasts a maximum of half an hour while playing
White gets quite dirty, but can be solved with a skin (e. g. dbrand)
The original packaging is not included
It has no stand
Levers and buttons feel cheap
The biggest drawback is Windows optimization, the last update solved the biggest instability and frequent game crashes, but you can' t avoid long settings for some games.
It is not suitable for someone who wants to download on the console and play immediately without setting up

Since it' s my first handheld, it' s a great machine. I' ve had it for two days now and I' m still playing only on it. I' ve already found that Windows has some bugs, which may deter some to be afraid of it, but it may not work nicely. It will be great for a vacation, when you don' t have to pack a whole bag. One has to learn where to look for what. A sound that I did not expect to be able to play so luxuriously. For someone who prefers a gamepad to a keyboard, I definitely recommend it. I mainly recommend it to undemanding players who are not looking for performance but rather for the enjoyment of the game. I' m giving four stars, just because of Windows, I don' t want to discourage anyone, just to point out that it won' t be completely perfect and you have to take into account some bugs.
power
the sound of a thump almost like when you put on headphones
silent
everything nicely processed
not quite finished Windows has some bugs
battery, but for the performance and enjoyment, it' s fine
one has to research everything to know where and what to look for and set

Great device, great performance, great sound!. On cooling myths: cooling is done more than well - quiet for performance, fans can already be heard for turbo, but nothing terrible. nothing overheats, as someone wrote here (perhaps a faulty piece? ). rog ally is still cold. I have an SD card there - it also doesn' t burn, nor can it. I have tested for performance: KDC high detail, Destiny 2 high, Horizon FW medium. Older games run on silent ok (e. g. deus ex HR, Shadow of TR. ) - everything flies between 60-30 fps (I have max 60fps turned on). In silent mode, the sound sometimes crackled - just turn off fast startup in the power options in win and it doesn' t do it since then. I appreciate the ability to set the power (socket/battery) and controls for each individual game. I would appreciate a slightly bigger display and a bigger battery, but ok. Battery life in performance 1.5 hours, in turbo 1 hour, in silent mode 2.5-3 hours approx. youtube eats about 7-8W, so about 4-5 hours there.

The choice was between the Steam deck and this one. I was tempted by the higher performance, but I do not like the position of the left stick, which has too much rosah, for example, the Xbox controller is stiffer and more sensitive. In contrast, A, B, C, Y are too stiff and of poor quality. The levers wiggle and crunch right from the factory. Only one USB-C, so you have to buy a hub if you want it to connect to a monitor. The disk is really small, so you keep choosing what game to install and more than 3-4 of today's games won't fit. Urita would need at least 1TB. The Windows 11 you get has a lot of useless stuff in it like Office or Onedrive. The worst part is that you get it in all the tongues and it takes a long time to unstick it. With that comes the fact that it takes a long time to actualize after the first power up, from Asus it downloads slowly and takes forever, the drive even though SSD is not very fast. The battery doesn't last much and if you want to play 30 FPS then it's fine, but otherwise an hour or two and that's it. If you play often, the battery probably runs out in six months. Asus app, sometimes it works and sometimes it crashes, if you turn it off through the administrator, it starts to reinstall, under power on. The FPS limit doesn't work at all, AMD fluid motion won't add it, you have to turn it on via the drivers. Windows has the only advantage that you can turn on games that don't work on Steam deck, and the aforementioned AMD fluid motion is a great thing. Like RSR, which will convert 720 to 1080p. The dispey can't do any other resolution, you can only choose from 720 and 1080p, when connected to a monitor you get 4:3 or 21:9 support in games that can do it. It's a device to which you eventually buy a better SSD and to do the hub and you find that it's priced at 20 thousand and for that you already have a Lenovo that has 1TB, 2x USB-C etc. Maybe someone more challenging like Kingdom come goes weird in some games even after locking FPS are flying back and forth. I have everything on low and it still has a problem with it. I think it's bad drivers and wanting to adjust a lot. In the settings you have for example Custom TDP and for that I have it says that it will break and Asus is not responsible for it, so what is it there for? For example, you have a power mode and it sets it to 15- 20w, with a couple of seconds to pick it up, overall within 2 minutes it drops and rises and creates unstable FPS, so you have to turn on custom anyway. Although I don't understand why, when it's 58 degrees. In turbo mode it's impossible to hold, it's 70+ and burns your palms after a while. In silent mode, I get like 46 degrees, which is good, but the performance is not great. It's possible that my difficulty is too high and just not enough for me, for someone who plays 1 or 2 games probably good or if you never played anything and you are discovering old games, but again there you have a better steam deck thanks to the Oled image that looks 100x better than on the ROG ally. Watching movies or YT doesn't appeal to me much, I can watch it on my mobile phone, which lasts for 6+ hours.
Quiet furnishings

Nice picture
Great for older games
Sound
Playing games that aren't on Xbox
Xbox games pass free
Asus apps
Battery
Eternal Actualizations
Lever layout
Not much buttons A, B, C, Y

Only one USB-C
Only 512GB of storage
Non-attachable controls, so if a lever or something breaks, the whole setup is unusable.

Total satisfaction. I was very surprised by the performance and I expected a weak battery, so I didn't buy this hardware for many years. Windows as an OS is somewhere between an advantage (after all, it's the standard for gaming and it's good to have at least one windows PC at home) and a disadvantage (it's still Windows, which is simply the worst OS on the market). The only thing that limits me is the disk capacity with the size of modern AAA games; Without an SD card, it's simply a necessity to have only a few games installed and change them as the mood takes you.
Awesome display
Great performance, rich enough for demanding games like Cyberpunk, Fallout 4, .
Good sound
Quality controller
Low battery life
Weak disc size
Only one USB-C port, which is also for power, resulting in 0 USB ports

Beautiful 120hz display
Decent ergonomics
I use as a handheld and desktop
Very quiet fan even at 53w boost
Great armory crete software for editing everything
Small charger
In eco mode a few hours of battery life, for example with geforce now
Worse joysticks. Apparently they were saving money, they are comparable to the nintendo switch
Battery, but it's obvious given the performance
A larger display would fit, or at least a taller 16:10

"Pocket" computer
By running on Windows, as many features as on a classic pc
Connection via hdmi to monitor or TV
Battery lasts long outside of gaming
Controlling games even on windows via joysticks is great
Option to connect additional peripherals
Touch screen display
When playing, the battery is down to two hours
Sometimes problem with auto switching joystick/keyboard control
some accessories would be useful, perhaps a simple stand

For someone who travels a lot, it's a blast. if you buy a docking station, you can make a decent PC for work. Updates of BIOS and all applications are very frequent and for me so far everything is fine.
sufficient performance to play even AAA titles in decent quality
super display
when you play so a pretty decent battery life
fast charging
great for travel
possibility to upgrade ssd for faster and bigger
someone takes it as a negative that the sd card reader is going away. I have used this one a couple of times and so far everything works but even so, it is enough to upgrade the ssd and some unnecessary cards are not needed
for me absolutely the only downside is that you can't upgrade the RAM to be even more powerful but maybe in the next version
