ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) announced the availability of its new gaming handhelds in the Philippines! Both the ROG Xbox Ally and ROG Xbox Ally X have improved ergonomics and seamless player-first user experience and feature cutting-edge AMD Ryzen Z2 Series processors.

Developed in partnership with the incredible team at Xbox, the Xbox Ally and Xbox Ally X offer best-in-class ergonomics and a full-screen Xbox experience that marries the best of Xbox and PC gaming in one cohesive package. The Xbox Ally sports an AMD Ryzen Z2 A Processor with incredible power efficiency, while the Xbox Ally X offers the new AMD Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme Processor for next-level gaming performance.

All-Day Comfort

ROG Xbox Ally X - Ergonomics

Handheld gaming is all about comfort, and ASUS may finally nail it this time. The ROG Xbox Ally series comes with a redesigned chassis inspired by the Xbox controller. The new grip feels natural, the palm rests smoother, and its texture provide a secure hold even during long gaming sessions. The ROG Xbox Ally X goes further with impulse triggers, adding immersive haptics that respond with precision. Every detail feels built for gamers who play for hours without compromise.

Seamless Software Experience

ROG Xbox Ally - Xbox Experience

With the ROG Armoury Crate SE, the original Ally already made Windows gaming more accessible. Now, ROG and Xbox have pushed it further. When you boot up the Ally, there’s a new full-screen Xbox interface optimized for handheld play on Windows 11. There’s no fluff here, just pure Xbox — smooth joystick navigation, quick access to settings, and widgets with a single button press. Since they still run Windows 11, you can play any game from any third-party game store. It’s the perfect blend of Xbox polish, ROG craftsmanship, and Windows flexibility.

Efficiency and Performance

Under the hood, the ROG Xbox Ally X packs AMD’s new Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme Processor for next-level power. Expect breathtaking visuals and extended battery life, whether you’re running AAA titles or indie hits. The base ROG Xbox Ally runs on the Ryzen Z2 A Processor, balancing console-level performance with efficient battery usage. Both devices also support AMD’s latest tech like FSR, RSR, and AFMF, ensuring smoother framerates and sharper graphics every time you play.

Optimized for Handheld Gaming

ROG Xbox Ally - Portability

Xbox worked closely with studios to ensure thousands of PC games work flawlessly on handheld. Games will carry Handheld Optimized or Mostly Compatible tags, so you’ll know exactly what to expect. Plus, a new shader preloading feature makes supported titles launch up to 10x faster, while using less battery.

The Ally X also integrates a built-in NPU for AI-powered features. Expect Auto Super Resolution to upscale visuals in real-time, and Highlight Reels to capture your epic gaming moments automatically.
