ROG Xbox Ally X review: Is the priciest Xbox ever worth it?...

Pros
- Superb power
- Great ergonomics
- Fairly slick interface
Cons
- Hugely expensive
- Can be clunky and crash-prone
- Same screen as standard Xbox Ally

The ROG Xbox Ally X is a much-improved attempt at a Windows 11 handheld gaming PC, but it still has some friction to sort out.
Pros

Cons

It may be niche, but anyone looking to run their biggest games on the go at a modest framerate and with sharp, clear visuals to boot will find the most success with the ROG Xbox Ally X. Sure, this is more Asus' party than anyone else's, but the Xbox inspiration, whether it's those gamepad-like grips or the Xbox OS (on a stripped-back version of Windows 11) cannot be ignored.

Despite the addition of the Xbox name, the Asus ROG Xbox Ally X still doesn't really feel like a proper console-like Windows gaming handheld. However, thanks to a great AMD processor and competitive price, it's the handheld to beat right now.
Pros
- Fantastic gaming performance
- Solid battery life
- Comfortable grip design
- Great overall design
Cons
- Windows still sucks as a handheld interface
- High price
- Xbox app/overlay additions disappointing

It's the first step in a long road to reinventing the Xbox brand, but in the meantime its one of the best handheld PCs you can get, despite glaring power standby bugs.

- Performance at lower power
- Windows finally good on handhelds
- Access to all your game launchers
- Better than average battery life
Cons
- So-so screen and speakers
- Missing Windows settings in FSE
- Battery standby bug
- More expensive than before
