It features AMD Z1 Extreme chipset based on Zen4 architecture, AMD RDNA 3 graphics chip, 16GB DDR5 RAM and 512GB SSD, and has a FHD IPS display with 120Hz refresh rate. It is available in the Indian market at a price of Rs 69,990.
ROG Ally is comfortable to hold and use thanks to well-placed and responsive buttons. The D-pad is a bit sticky though, but overall the controls are good. The 7-inch FHD IPS panel is also sharp with a 120Hz refresh rate.
One of the biggest downsides to the ROG Ally is its battery life. In a game like Apex Legends, you can only expect an hour and a half of battery life. This isn’t great, but it’s to be expected given the power of the device.
Overall, the Asus ROG Ally is a good handheld gaming device for gamers who want the best possible performance. It’s certainly not without its flaws, but is it really worth Rs 69,990? Find out in this video review.
