Where To Buy The Asus ROG Ally

thegamer.com:

The portable gaming PC market has been really heating up, thanks to the rise of streaming and devices like the Steam Deck allowing you to bring your PC games collection with you wherever you go. Now is the best time to make the jump to handheld, and Asus is throwing its hat in the ring with the ROG Ally.

Described as a “true Windows 11 gaming machine”, complete with support for Game Pass, a fancier display, and a neater cooling system than the Deck, the ROG Ally is sure to offer stiff competition. If you want to get in from day one, here's how you can pick one up..

In our review, features editor Ben Sledge labeled the ROG Ally “the Steam Deck’s first true competition”, saying “Competition for the Steam Deck is a good thing. The handheld PC space is still incredibly new, and the more companies that join the fight, the better results for the consumer. The ROG Ally iterates on the Steam Deck by allowing you easy access to your full games library… the Ally is lighter, smaller, and more portable, and its screen feels brighter and games look better”.

The next heavy-hitter in handheld gaming, the ROG Ally hopes to take on the Steam Deck with a better screen and quieter cooling. It also runs Windows 11 natively, ensuring you'll not run into awkward compatibility issues, and have full support for Games Pass right out of the box.

Being smaller and lighter, while also having a better screen, is going to be a big draw for people who were put off by the chunkier Steam Deck. It helps that it packs some impressive specs, such as 16GB RAM, a Ryzen Z1 Extreme 8-core processor, 16GB of RAM, a Radeon RDNA 3 GPU with 4GB VRAM, and 512GB storage by default with MiscroSD
