Yes. I don't think there's a real fix for it, other than the newly designed model in black, ROG Ally X that cost significantly more.
It's exercise while you play! That's a benefit you don't get with the Ally ROG.
The newer handhelds are coming at over $700. The ones that are coming out at $500 are probably relatively similar in performance
The Switch 2 will be more powerful, but it's a different set of games you'll have access to of course. It will likely be around $400 too and there is no way Nintendo will charge $500 for one. With that said, it's console games you'll have access to while a portable windows device like this will allow you to run anything you want granted that you know how to do so. If as a simple plug and play device, you'll have access to Steam and be able to install other launchers like Ubisoft's/EA/Blizzard if you have an existing PC library with them. Emulators is where there is tinkering needed if you want to run Switch and retro games.

It's widely considered that the Switch 2 will be less powerful. Go ahead and Google "is switch 2 more powerful than rog ally"
Otherwise, great all-around device which - as others point out - is a full Windows machine in addition to a gaming handheld.

So they double as workout weights? Sounds like added value.

I use it to play my PS4/5 games and it works near perfect.
This thing is awesome. Probably the best electronic device I have purchased in a very long time.
A bummer that the sd card reader is apparently defective as I would use that as my emulator storage.
Other then that, this has not only met but significantly exceeded my expectations.
I'll probably have to get another one within the next year or two as this one gets so much use and having an extra to play while the other is in use would be optimal. Probably will go with the x as it will be around this price then. or maybe the rog ally 2 when that is eventually released.
Great job Asus...you have a winner here!
