ROG ALLY as a Desktop Replacement... 

I think it’s a step in the right direction for the handheld space but I’m seeing there is still lots of work to be done yet. Version 2 of these products will be world changing IMO

the ally is freaking beast

And this folks is how you cleanly review a gadget especially powerful ones like rog ally, cheers brother 👍

I was hoping for ROG Ally 2 but apparently the new one is just the Ally X. I do intend to use the Ally as a workstation laptop alternative IF NEEDED since I already have a desktop PC and a laptop doesn't feel much that much portable anymore if I wanted decent gaming, so an ROG Ally seems like the perfect thing to scratch that itch. Also help that growing up I mever have a handheld so figured might as well treat my 30yo self to a treat when the Ally X launches.

I have the steam deck, but I have to admit... as a laptop replacement, it won't cut it. I'll buy the ally for work and some gaming, and I'll use steam deck as a true handheld portable device.

What’s the name of the black square box you had plugged in at the top

I bought one and love mine. Super awesome

My friend, try playing Battlefield 1, Warzone 2, and Battlefield V on a mouse and keyboard on the TV screen, and I hope the video will be accurate 720p60 1080p60

I would just plug it into my M1 MacBook Air’s capture card if I don’t want to put up with running an inconvenient Windows Virtual Machine on Mac if I wanna run X86 or Windows Software. It takes up less workspace than having 2 laptops side by side

I’m very curious if this would run world of Warcraft at a decent setting. My laptop has a 1060 and is starting to slowing down and I already have the ally. This would be a good bridge until I can pull the trigger on a desktop rig

but rog ally have a built in mic

Can you charge it at the same time you have it connected to evrithin whit the extensions ?

LAPTOP DUDE NOT LABTOP YOU ARE KILLING ME.

Can you link the monitor/keyboard?

Does it need an antivirus because of windows?

How did you connect it to the monitor?

la rog alli es una pc con accesorios puedes sacar todo su potencial

Gen 2 of the ROG Ally will be nothing without a proper operating system that understands its portability nature. I hope Microsoft understands that they are one jump away to greatness or a deep hole with the next gen Windows OS... I hope it's the former not the latter.

I wish the ally had a black version... lol 😆 white gets too dirty too fast. but ok

The only thing I hate about the rog ally is the location of the SD card...wtf!! Why would you put it over the heat vent!!

how big is your monitor?

I don't think this is a laptop replacement. I have bought this and have used it extensively in flights , trains, cabs and it performs really well. Yes, a small battery is a concern and you need to plug in for those long sessions of intense online shooters or Fifa etc.

My only concern is: only 16gb of ram

Hello

Does this guy think they are called "labtops" instead of laptops cause he keeps saying labtop instead of laptop.
