Asus ROG Ally X: APU: AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme: AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme: Memory: 16GB LPDDR5-6400: 24GB LPDDR5-7500: Storage: 512GB Gen 4×4 NVMe SSD, micro SD slot UHS-II: up to 1TB M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe ...

The Asus ROG Ally X is using the same Z1 Extreme chip as the original Ally, but everything else has changed, making it one of the best handheld gaming PCs yet.

ASUS ROG Ally X offers twice the SSD capacity and double the battery capacity. I spent time playing games, running tests, and checking battery life to see how good it is.

Asus has entered the portable gaming PC market through the ROG Ally, and we tried out the Windows 11-enabled handheld for a few weeks.

The Asus ROG Ally X has the most comfortable grip, the smoothest gameplay, and the longest-lasting battery among Windows gaming handhelds. In some ways, it’s even better than Deck.

Asus refuses to confirm to The Verge that it’s actually identified a fix for the Ally’s SD card reader issue. A new extended warranty may not be enough.
