An entire world of gaming is about to be born anew – and the ROG Ally X is the torchbearer. This $799 gaming PC with a targeted ship date of July 22 should be on everyone’s radar as we discuss what we expect to see from portable gaming systems going forward. Here are the Ally X’s highlights.
Once in a long while, a device comes along that shakes up its category. The ROG Ally X looks likely to be one such device for gamers: not just because it comes with 24GB of RAM (sufficient to play pretty much whatever game or run whatever app you want), but because it can also run all day on its 80-watt hour battery without being clumsy.
One of the most remarkable aspects of the ROG Ally X, especially for me as a gamer, is that it makes portable performance possible. The sheer amount of hardware that makes up the Ally X is astounding, but there’s nothing cumbersome about the feel of this machine – which is a massive win for the gamer who’s accustomed to toting around a few hundred pounds of top-of-the-line hardware as a prerequisite for great gaming. Additionally, the ROG Ally X features a new type of lightweight joystick that makes longer play sessions far more comfortable for the player.
The ROG Ally X is more than just the release of a new portable device. It represents the next step in the gaming ecosystem, breaking the traditional barriers of what is possible in mobile gaming. It stands on its own as a unique portable device but also opens the door to a wider, more immersive gaming experience at home and on the go.
Despite its association with gaming, the ROG Ally X’s features make it a versatile companion for any other intensive computing task. The excess RAM and fast joysticks suggest uses outside of gaming – from video editing and graphic design to running complex computing simulations – that could position the ROG Ally X as a space of creativity and productivity. This would broaden its appeal beyond the stereotypical gaming consumer.
With the device slated for release soon, the burning question on everyone’s lips is: Does the ROG Ally X deliver? While it is still too early to make a definitive judgment, the specs and innovative design mavericks are promising. The convergence of portability, power and novelty could very well shove the ROG Ally X into the vanguard of the next generation of gaming devices.
The ROG Ally X stands as one of the latest examples of just how far gaming devices are evolving, and how manufacturers should be thinking about the future of these devices. Simply put, X’s specs and software push the boundaries of what game console designers are thinking about. This is the type of device that spurs other manufactures to go further by blending power and portability, but then again, power and portability are not the only priorities for gamers in this era of devices becoming ever more versatile.
Taking a look at this evolving story – the new realm of gaming, the fundamentals of gaming are at home. ROG Ally X is a symbol of home innovation, concreting power and efficiency into something that feels at home, wherever it may be. Home is not only a place but a philosophy that contains the core elements of comfort, capability and creatfulness. ROG Ally X is not simply a gaming equipment. It is the entrance for people to engage with the new idea of home pushed by technology.
By melding future-facing hardware and forward-thinking ergonomics, the ROG Ally X is less a product and more a tipping point in the ongoing surge toward more free-flowing, personal, immersive gaming that can emanate from our homes. We can’t wait to get our hands on it. The ROG Ally X is not ushering the future of gaming into existence; rather, it’s inviting us all to envision what the future of gaming should look like. The gaming world is watching, and it’s ready to take its next leap forward: with a ROG Ally X in tow.
