Asus ROG XBOX Ally

Matches the details noted on the website and received more quickly than expected! I recommend it, is also as effective as I hoped!

Good high-performance console, it manages to run most games like crimson desert (in turbo mode though) or less demanding ones, Library Tidy I had to do quite a bit of cleanup to remove xbox bloatware at startup so as to leave windows 11 at startup and thus lighten the system (even if windows 11 is not the most optimal for this console). A lot of updates on the first startup of the machine: you have to be patient and let the updates install quietly. Just a shame that the power charger and cable are not supplied with it (thanks Europe and its restrictions) You still need to have a charger on hand because the battery drains very quickly during gaming sessions. The console is a bit heavy and weighs a little on the hands after 30 min of play. The provided stand is not too much

I tried my very best to love this handheld but I simply could not. The only good things I can say about it is the comfortability and the high refresh rate screen. If you plan to use it for game streaming and have the right network setup this device could be great for that. But running games on it directly though, expect to get about 20-30 fps in modern games at low to medium settings and the resolution turned down. If you are okay with this you might be happy. It is severely underpowered compared to the (much) higher priced version. I ended up returning it as it is simply too expensive for the amount of performance you get.

As I am regularly on the move, it is good to have a portable console so I can play. I can play recent games.

Excellent windows handheld device. Can play most XBOX and steam games out the box. Initial setup and windows update can take a while, but worth the effort. Highly reccomended
