Yep, kinda crazy that we’re getting late uploads of old firmware data when the new firmware was made available like 3 days ago. Dave2D and The Phawx are thankfully covering this.
I have a Switch and a Steam Deck, and I'm getting the ROG Ally as a complement to them. I love handhelds, and I usually play on a couch, in my office, or in bed, where I have somewhere to be plugged in. This makes the battery life a mostly non-issue for me. I think this will be perfect for me for playing games the Deck can't play. I don't believe it will replace my Steam Deck, but it may be my go-to for a lot of games due to how good its performance is.
Same for me and I also view this device as something I can use for Xbox PC Gamepass without having to rely on streaming those games or playing them solely on my desktop PC
The AOKZOE A1 Pro is a contender too. It's IGG campaign just got extended for a week, so the early-bird pricing is still decent. Has a bigger screen, more RAM, and huge battery compared to Ally, but only 60Hz.
don't forgot: less offiical support, bad warrenty or fimware updates and also not the community support mostly only Steamdeck and rog ally. Buy the Rog its way better.
@@AP101083 ROG Ally released with many dead sticks, huge dead zone issues, overheating SD cards, FW update that reduced performance from review units, glitchy AC software, screen fell off, and many other problems. It was the most-returned product in the history of BestBuy. Meanwhile, my A1 Pro is flawless. So glad I didn't go with the ROG.
Man, your editing, graphics and the globale tone are amazing. It's a huge work! Maybe the best review of the ROG Ally on all youtubes' channel. Thanks, it's crystal clear!
As someone who's been using handheld PCs for a while now, I realize that battery life is not that big of an issue. I thought I would be gaming for long hours which isn't the case even on trips. May be on flights or as a passenger but 65w power banks are cheap now or the plane has outlets. Most PC games that takes hrs to play require mouse and keyboard which means you're likely tethered/docked.
PLEASE make it just like you ungraded the redmi phone, would be really cool to see, especially upgrading battery & since it can go above ~45W, we can add better cooling or smth and take the 120 fps advantage, will be waiting for that :)
I gotta say this is one of my favorite channels first of all. what if you wounderful people tried something like a light version of windows Revios or GhostSpectre. Or even better, Steamos or CachyOs (Arch based) and tried some diffrent kernels with diffrent schedulers. it might give you some more room to tweak the system :)
Why bother putting it to 1080p and using fsr ultra performance? That's quite misleading since internally the game is rendering at a much more resolution...
if i ever had this I would buy packs of powerbanks and bring them with me, and use them with PD for ultimate portability, if one runs out, i could just swap with another one
Love your charts. The section on performance could have been handled differently but overall I liked the structure of most of your charts over other reviews I have seen.
@@Riverpeth No it does not. At 10 watts and lower the Deck still wins, also the Ally can't go below 10 watts. I'd wait for The Phaux to release a video about the new drivers for reliable testing
considering the switch oled can get like 5 hours in botw, these handhelds really need to focus more on battery life, i mean considering the switch is using 16nm process there is no excuse that games running on 4nm cant get more than 3 hours battery life
Pc games are more demanding, you have to run games at full tilt to get ok performance. It is just an issue in general, you can’t run aaa games at 5 watts, look at the iPhone 15 pro.
The comparison between the z1 extreme, the apple m1/m2 chip and the snapdragon 8 gen 2 was very good to put in the video! you are pro! only thing you couldve added was the wattage that each chip uses on average. I couldn't find a comparison anywhere. This shows that arm chips can have x86 performance with lower wattage consumption. We need a ROYALTY FREE / OPEN SOURCE / FREE OF LICENCING COST soc chip thats good enough to be used in all upcoming gaming handhelds. I hope some manufacturers in China can bring mobile chips architecture with no LICENCING FEE to the market!! i was cheering for huaweis kirin chip but poor huawei got trade bans and havent seen a newer versions of their chips here. I wanna play good AAA games like resident evil 4 remake and the best games on a mobile SoC 120hz locked minimum power lost at heat in a handheld that feels lile steam deck / wii u gamepad. Oh and the games shuld be well optimised like nintendo does and shuld be cheap or all games free with gamepass thats cheap
The reason also is because the Z1 Extreme/7840U has a massive CPU side as well. It's almost as fast as a desktop Ryzen 7 7700 or laptop i7-13700H. So it is not as laser focused as it could be for gaming. 4 core 8 threads would've been better. And also x86 chips are just more versatile as they pack a far wider instruction set compared to ARM and that makes x86 less efficient in many cases. This CPU also supports AVX-512 which is why the PS3 emulation is so good!
@@DeepteshLovesTECH yeah we need a gaming focused SoC with an Architecture especially made for only gaming, no hdmi out or media accelerators build in. It shuld be even more efficient than ARM64. Chip containing Only GPU's and just enough CPU to play all games at 120hz and like a fast wifi chip inside too obvious reasons.

Now that’s insane. But if the update optimize this hardware like that it’s a really good feat. Microsoft Asus and Amd are not messing around this handheld was built to takeover the market and the Steam Deck was the preliminaries. Lot of reviewers talk bad about Rog running windows but Microsoft can win with this handheld if they want to
Rather ROG Ally Z1 Extreme more premium and hardware like better speakers and cooling system for only 699 USD at any time. Plus i have Asus service center at my city.
I think you should've played older pc games at high or max settings just to show that this is more powerful than a 2014 desktop pc. And as for the battery consumption, it isn't really a problem for me because I always connect it to a TV, so I play cuphead and other indie games on it while it's charging. I connect it via HDMI. And I then connect Xbox controllers and play cuphead 2 player coop. I think the device shines this way, cause when not home I just take the device with me to work and plug it into the monitor and play games while it's charging or plugged in. So I don't think ASUS meant it to be a mobile" device. It's more a powerful gaming machine that you can fit into a small bag and can take everywhere with you. And yest if you want you can play in handheld. I also think it's good to plug it into non smart TVs and start watching movies and TH-cam and other things. I think these machines are more for indie games rather than triple A games. But when it comes to old and very old pc games, it's a champ! I mean you can play black ops 2 on it! At max settings! At 60fps! So....... That's impressive to me.
This device is only cool to me as being able to play couch co op with my wife and child, I already do this with the deck and it does work good, but with the ally it would be a big improvement for docked gaming, otherwise the deck is just a better portable device with good battery life.
At the moment, the support is going to suck for this device unlike the steam deck, literally a Google search away from the most complex hiccups. I'm still picking this up though, need some personal comparisons between it and the steam deck
yes it would be a good idea to disable some of it's processor core. and i would also see the performance of custom os like AtlasOS in this handheld pc.
I believe you can get attachments on top of your RoG Ally that can attach external batteries, such as power banks, which can with the right circumstances double the battery life or more Might be worth checking out

I don't speak Chinese but you have a lot of interesting videos on your Chinese channel... may you do a dubbed English version for them from now on? Kinda like Der8auer?
It's not dubbed, he speaks them himself. He explained before that this is why the English channel is being updated very slowly compared to the Mandarin channel, because there's alot more work that needed to be put into the English video from ensuring high accuracy of translation, re-record and re-edit the graphics and the video and other aspects.
what about after sales support? such as replaceable buttons and joysticks, ASUS' Armory Crate updates, etc? If this don't last long, I'll just go to Steam Deck. Also, can we turn off that RGB lights in joystick? that still consumes power.
It’s has a similar amount of power as M1 chip. I have an iPad Pro with an m1 so it is nice to see these benchmarks. I don’t really need another m1 tier device lol, I bought that 2 years ago, so I probably won’t buy the ally. I have a steam deck, but it sorta chokes on any sorta demanding game I just get crashes on Spider-Man miles morales when we slinging and a lot of crashes forza horizon 4 and 5. I’ll probably only upgrade my steam deck when Alienware makes the Alienware ufo or in the future with a more powerful chip If that ever comes out or the switch 2.

you should try undervolting it then running it at lower than 15 watts and see if it gets better performance
