No more being stuck in bed gaming, Ally X goes everywhere with me.

[@GrimReaper-hb8yh]

This video was all I needed man thank you I play call of duty non stop and have been missing playing it on the go was hard to find which handheld was the best but I’m convinced now buying one of these asap 🙌🏼

[@BeyondtheBox1]

Me too the legion go is too big and the old rog ally was perfect but it got better

[@mayankvlogs3545]

Taking the Ally X with me wherever I go has made gaming on the go a dream.

[@HardGamers-YT]

Loving the faster charging with the new 100W support.

[@universalstars114]

Super impressed by how much they improved the vibration feedback, it’s a game-changer.

[@Animafia77]

Super happy with the SSD upgrade options, more space means more games.

[@mr_priyans007]

Can’t believe how much they improved the speakers, the audio is crystal clear.

[@cutefaster-kz3uu]

The optimization of the battery and internals is just spot on.

[@chozi_gamer]

The quiet vents on this thing are a blessing, especially for late-night gaming.

[@cctv1826]

I can’t believe they improved the speakers, the sound is so much cleaner now.

[@TrollFaceSquad]

I’m amazed by the improved vibration feedback on the Ally X.

[@kroos6063]

Feeling the vibrations through the speakers is a crazy experience.

[@Poornima-Maanasa4859]

The Ally X really does give you that competitive edge with its upgraded buttons.

[@jawelfreestyle]

That third vent really helps with cooling, and it’s super quiet too.

[@starboypubgmobile68]

The upgrades on the ROG Ally X are game-changing! 🎮

[@KackackMissa]

The battery life on the Ally X is a huge step up, I’m impressed.

[@URLAAAAA]

So glad the new Ally X has quieter vents, no more distractions during gameplay.

[@Satishtiwarisinger2305]

It’s amazing that they managed to pack so many upgrades into the same form factor.

[@Dazzlingevents108]

The added third vent really helps with cooling, and it’s barely audible.

[@mahanandrajak7891]

Feels like a whole new experience with the Ally X, even though it’s not a full sequel.

[@muhammadjaved2102]

Can’t wait to test out the faster charging with the 100W brick!

[@nikhilgamerff9676]

Super excited to customize my thumbstick response curves in Armory Crate.

[@Tovarishchostdeutsch]

its just too expensive for the fixed sd slot, double usbc, ram and battery. i tested it too, and without AFMF it is quite low in diffrence between white ally. most games just around 4-10 more fps, for what... like 400$ or €, i send the X back, and get a reduced white ally again for 499. it they lower the price, its might be a better choice

[@naguto-nb7cf]

Love how responsive the back buttons are, a true upgrade from last year.

[@wcp233]

Wow, the new SSD options are insane, up to 8TB?

[@4x4_Om_Editz]

Loving the new tactile back buttons on the Ally X, a serious upgrade for competitive gaming.

[@Mira_rajak_2003]

The improved Armory Crate features are super helpful for customizing my setup.

[@ZeeshanAli-ey1jl]

Tactile feedback on the back buttons is a must-have for competitive gamers.

[@Gilmsy]

After a long time, bro is back

[@BeyondtheBox1]

Yesssir I’m back for good

[@RamSita-fg8cc]

The quieter vents on the Ally X are a much-needed improvement.

[@محترف-د1ذ]

The Ally X is hands down the best tech purchase I’ve made this year.

[@amitkanaujia2496]

I’m sold on the Ally X, definitely worth the upgrade from the original.

[@peaceful-pace]

Thumbsticks with increased tension are a subtle yet significant upgrade.

[@banishedangel8569]

Nice video, I am contemplating which handheld to get between the Legion Go vs Ally X. Main game I want to play is Ark Survival Ascended at work. Performance wise would you recommend the Ally X for that game specifically or should I go with the Legion?

[@BeyondtheBox1]

Ally x 1000%

[@zainulabdeen.786]

Armory Crate’s improved command center is so customizable now!

[@ايبابا-خ8ظ]

The ability to customize everything in Armory Crate is a huge plus for me.

[@pagaladityaoffical777]

This is the kind of battery life we’ve all been waiting for in a handheld.

[@naresh11198]

The added tension in the thumbsticks makes a huge difference in gameplay.

[@Enesbozar_07]

The fact that the Ally X supports 100W charging is just awesome.

[@EditifyNex]

Ally X’s dual USB-C ports are a lifesaver for charging and playing.

[@RONAK1205]

Fluid frames on this thing make every game feel buttery smooth.

[@SumitraBist-d7y]

ASUS has set the bar high with the Ally X, loving every minute with it.

[@TauseefSongs]

Props to ASUS for making the SSD upgrade process so easy on the Ally X.

[@ajaygiri6098]

The increased tension in the thumbsticks is perfect for precision gaming.

[@rafayrafay-bu7uv]

The Ally X’s battery life is so good, I never worry about running out of juice.

[@JeepSingh-mb1xw]

The faster charging capability is a game changer for those long gaming sessions.

[@akbar_dandhi_official]

Can’t wait to try out the 100W charging, fast charge FTW!

[@YousifIqbalIqbalyousif]

This is hands down the best handheld gaming device on the market right now.

[@Thunder-Life]

The tactile back buttons are a huge win for competitive gamers.

[@AamirTRT03-j2c]

I didnt think they could improve the form factor, but ASUS nailed it!

[@TomandJerryfanclub07]

Ally X’s improved battery life makes it perfect for all-day gaming sessions.

[@Kanafa-pb19x]

I’m planning to pick this up this Black Friday

[@BeyondtheBox1]

Idk how you wait so long ugh I had to pick up day 1

[@mannu_gurjar6375]

Can’t believe how responsive the back buttons are, it’s like night and day compared to the original.

[@austinpoaurs9871]

I kept my receipt to test out the value of the X. I'm keeping it. This things a beast lol

[@BeyondtheBox1]

Exactly lol you think you’ll just test it out and compare it then you decide it’s the best and you decide to give away $800 😂😂

[@NoobGalaxy_6]

The fact that they added a third vent shows how much thought went into cooling.

[@jawelfreestyle]

Dual USB-C ports for charging and playing? That’s a quality of life upgrade I didn’t know I needed.

[@feelmusic76891]

Its crazy how responsive the back buttons are now, perfect for fast-paced games.

[@iamriotamiriot4770]

I saw this posted to our discord 💪

[@BeyondtheBox1]

Did you watch?

[@ArvindKumar-gv4is]

Hall effect thumbsticks would have been perfect, but the upgrades are still amazing.

[@jkajayvlog]

Loving the fact that I can finally play Call of Duty on the go with no compromises.

[@michaellui74]

Awesome video👍👍👍do you know when ally 2 coming out???? Less bezel and bigger screen will be the best handheld??? Thank you

[@BeyondtheBox1]

Nope. No idea. But I think this is the best handheld. There’s no reason to wait for the ally 2.

[@jerojubilant2093]

Ally X’s battery life makes it the perfect travel companion.

[@sp_king_rk]

ASUS really stepped up their game with the Ally X, its a must-have.

[@davids1556]

For a 1st handheld purchase would you recommend this over the legion go? I plan on playing in my free time at work, games like call of duty, Fortnite, god if war and such

[@BeyondtheBox1]

This for sure. Speakers face away from you on the legion go. Triggers are uncomfortable to access when trying to use back buttons at the same time. If you’re a call of duty player and you wanna use the item’s internal controller - I would use this if you care about not destroying your KD because of being too clunky on the leigon go.

[@iqrajameel3797]

720p at 80-90fps on the go? The Ally X is a beast.

[@ascninjagamer8766]

Props to ASUS for making the Ally X’s thumbsticks last even longer!

[@Grimnir29]

hey, great video dude, what are those thumbstick grip on your x?

[@BeyondtheBox1]

I’m using some little scuf add ons they’re like $15 on amazon, I keep them on every controller I own. They’re amazing. amzn.to/4gjNOFU

[@SeriesCX]

More reviews dude! That was great!

[@BeyondtheBox1]

thanks brother!

[@Autoayex]

ASUS nailed it with the added USB-C ports, makes life so much easier.

[@deepakrajpootmadwari1367]

The added USB-C port makes multitasking so much easier.

[@Sadsong8862]

Even with all the upgrades, the Ally X still feels just as comfortable to hold.

[@KingKhan-wd8nj]

Super excited to upgrade the SSD to 8TB, more space for my games!

[@rajeshyalgondacreation6582]

VR on a handheld? The Ally X continues to impress.

[@interactmind]

I didn’t expect the form factor to improve, but ASUS did it again.

[@hananbhia4548]

Every upgrade on the Ally X just makes it feel more premium.

[@rscreator101]

Being able to play for hours without worrying about battery life is such a relief.

[@Bismmillahirrahmanirrahim]

The fact that I can run VR on a handheld is mind-blowing.

[@Shdhjdjdjejw]

Hall effect thumbsticks would have been the cherry on top, but I can deal with it.

[@hanangamer1122]

I’m glad ASUS upgraded the SSD, 1TB is perfect for all my games.

[@bhaveshsinh_zala_302]

The 24GB RAM upgrade makes multitasking so much smoother.

[@officialraigamer7581]

Even though it’s 11% heavier, the Ally X still feels perfect in hand.

[@Aslamsuleman47]

I didn’t think the ROG Ally could get better, but the X version proves me wrong.

[@MRcreation7666]

The improved thumbsticks are a small change that makes a big difference.

[@KrishnaKadere]

With the Ally X, I can take my entire game library on the go without compromise.

[@shazel8616]

Is there performance upgrade, More fps? I returned my rog ally extreme 1week after buying, it didnt perform well on the games i liked :(

[@BeyondtheBox1]

It’s about 10% stronger probably + fluid frames makes most every game even more playable

[@ThatAnnoyingGuy96]

In some games that need additional ram like Avatar frontiers of pandora the boost is over 50% but yes in most games the boost is around 10%

[@BeyondtheBox1]

@@ThatAnnoyingGuy96 have you played avatar on the X? Did you like it?

[@nababkunalff]

ASUS really knocked it out of the park with the upgrades on the Ally X.

[@R.S754]

Six hours of gameplay on 13W mode? That’s wild!

[@padampandey6136]

The Ally X is a worthy upgrade, especially for those who game on the go.

[@adolfbilic8622]

I had the Ally X for a bit and while a nice device it does exactly the same as my gaming laptop just worse . Selling it and bought a Steam Deck OLED and Switch Lite and now they compliment my PC setup as now all my devices are different. The Ally X is just another Windows device . My Ally X is up on eBay UK if anyone is interested. Selling it for 700 ...

[@GospelSolider]

Hey, can you play it without internet?

[@BeyondtheBox1]

Yess

[@brianhangfaing4946]

hi what thumbsticks are those on your rog ally x?

[@BeyondtheBox1]

So I think they’re closer to Xbox 1 sticks, but I’m using Scuf attachments which turn it into kontrol freaks. Adds a little height.

[@BigDaddyMacc]

the only con is setting up windows. its not hard but its not fun hehehe. other then that when u have update everything from storage to patch and find you setting ect. then this handheld becomes a beauty

[@BeyondtheBox1]

I don’t find windows set up very annoying. Pretty standard for me. I think if windows came out in a handheld format for gaming - it would be way more streamlined. But for the average american consumer - they know how to work a windows pc so they will be able to understand this.

[@TangSang-y4b]

ASUS really delivered with the Ally X, its the best handheld of 2024.

[@BeyondtheBox1]

Damn my editor did a really good job didn’t he?

[@ttby]

Yeah very clean

[@jhongsports5680]

If you have first gen you don't need to buy this ally x but if you don't have one ofcourse this is the best to buy for a first timer gaming handheld.

[@BeyondtheBox1]

If you hate leaving the wall outlet to play then yeah I’d say you should get it

[@UndyinMoon875]

first, and when i get the chance, i wanna give it, im here always lol

[@COddietsch]

I have a hard time seeing so I was going to go with the Legion Go, but after several videos and finally finding yours you mentioned s=a few things the others did not tht sold me. Mine is mostly for backup purposes, in case my main PC grpahics pc goes down (rtx 4090) or my laptop (rtx 4070) or I just want to relax on my lounge. I hope I can adapt to the 7" screen because it's nto much bigger than my iphone. Anyhow, I am getting it from BestBuy so if I can't get used to it I will return it for the Lenovo. I subscribed.

[@BeyondtheBox1]

Appreciate that! I always try to add the UNIQUE information that is necessary and detailed for special use cases. What did I say that was different than others? I appreciate you recognizing that. I strive to bring content like that.

[@Factai786]

Every little upgrade on the Ally X makes a huge difference in daily use.
