What is this portable console from Asus?
The Asus Rog Ally Z1 Extreme looks like most portable consoles, and inevitably brings to mind the Steam Deck. Even if it may seem fragile at first glance, due to the plastic materials used for its design, the finishes remain very neat. The console also offers very good ergonomics, with a good layout of the buttons and a good grip. Its 608g weight can, however, feel a little after a long gaming session.
The Rog Ally Z1 Extreme may be a gaming console, but it’s not the most welcoming machine out there. The fault of Windows 11, poorly suited to offering instinctive and pleasant navigation. Fortunately, Asus adds an Armory Crate SE software overlay which simplifies the whole thing. You’ll have access to plenty of presets, as well as the ability to organize your game library.
Is the Rog Ally worth it at this price?
This is a very good deal for a portable console that is reliable, quiet and does not heat up despite excellent performance. This Z1 Extreme version features the AMD Z1 Extreme chip coupled with 16 GB of shared RAM. Games run at 60 fps without problem, without sacrificing graphics. FreeSync technology helps prevent image tearing. The Rog Ally benefits from recent compatibility with AMD’s FSR 3, to improve the framerate, only on compatible games. The offer even includes a one-month game pass subscription to play a number of games for free.
In terms of screen, the 7-inch IPS LCD panel, with Full HD definition of 1,920 × 1,080 pixels, is accompanied by a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz. Finally, its autonomy is a little less than 2 hours, with the brightness all the way up, and up to 4 hours of use if you’re careful. Rest assured, you can plug the console into a power outlet during your gaming sessions.
