ASUS ROG Xbox Ally 7" Handheld Gaming Console (AMD Ryzen Z2 A, 16 GB RAM)

Imagine their whole game library, ready to play from the couch, the bed, a long flight, or a road trip. The ASUS ROG Xbox Ally is a handheld gaming PC built in partnership with Xbox, and it turns the dream of serious portable gaming into something they can hold in two hands.

It runs Windows 11 with the Xbox full screen experience, which means it boots into a console style interface designed for controllers. Games from Xbox Game Pass, the Xbox app, Steam, and other PC launchers all live in one place, so there is no juggling between devices. Under the hood, the AMD Ryzen Z2 A processor and 16 GB of RAM power through popular titles, indie favorites, and cloud gaming with ease.

The 7 inch Full HD display has a smooth 120 Hz refresh rate, so fast action feels fluid and responsive. ASUS shaped the grips after Xbox controllers, giving it a comfortable, familiar feel during long sessions, with all the buttons, sticks, and triggers gamers expect right where their hands go.

Because it is a real PC, it can also connect to a monitor or TV, browse the web, stream videos, and chat with friends between matches. One device covers gaming at home and gaming on the go.

This is a showstopper gift for the gamer who has everything except time at their desk, the student who travels home on holidays, or the parent who finally wants to finish that game after the kids are asleep. Wrap it with a carrying case and a Game Pass subscription, and you have given them hundreds of adventures in one box. Expect a very big smile.
