PC gaming can be expensive these days, but there’s a great deal right now if you want a portable gaming PC. Amazon and Best Buy have dropped the price of the Asus ROG Xbox Ally to $500 (was $600). That’s about the same as a Switch 2, but since it runs on PC hardware, you get access to a wider range of games, often at lower prices.

Asus Xbox ROG Ally Handheld

$500 (was $600)

The ROG Xbox Ally improves on Asus’s first mobile gaming PC with some nice updates for comfort and usability. It has a sturdy white case, a seven-inch Full HD 120Hz screen, 16 GB of RAM, and an AMD Ryzen Z2 processor. You also get Xbox-style controls, a 60-watt-hour battery, a 512GB SSD, and the whole device weighs less than 1.5 pounds. The ROG Xbox Ally also includes three months of Xbox Game Pass Premium, so you’ll have plenty of games to play right away. While it’s not as powerful as the ROG Xbox Ally X, this model still handles gaming well. Indie games run smoothly, but for more demanding titles, you may need to adjust settings for the best performance. If you’re okay with making a few tweaks, you can still enjoy newer games on this device.

One key feature is the device’s operating system. Unlike the Steam Deck’s Linux system, Android-based handhelds like the AYANEO line, or the Switch 2’s custom software, the ROG Ally is one of a small handful of Windows 11-based handheld gaming devices, offering game compatibility and user interface experience akin to a Windows desktop or laptop. The ROG Xbox Ally also features an updated Xbox experience that makes it much easier to organize and launch all your games, even if you bought them from different storefronts like Steam or the Epic Games Store.
