AI Performance in Your Hands
The ROG Xbox Ally X runs on the AMD Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme processor with a built-in Neural Processing Unit (NPU) that enhances performance through real-time AI optimization. It is paired with 24 GB LPDDR5X RAM, 1 TB PCIe SSD storage, and an 80 Wh battery designed for longer gaming sessions.

Both handhelds feature a 7-inch Full HD 120 Hz IPS display with AMD FreeSync Premium and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protection. The display supports fluid gameplay and clear visuals, even in fast-paced titles.
Xbox Integration Built for Real Gamers
The Xbox collaboration goes beyond branding. The new handhelds include Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and Xbox Cloud Gaming, letting users access hundreds of games instantly. The devices use a custom Xbox user interface optimized for handheld controls and full Windows 11 Home support for PC gaming.
Arnold Su, Vice President of Consumer and Gaming PC at Asus India, said, “With the ROG Xbox Ally series, we are putting next-generation computing into the hands of gamers. Built for those who dare, the Ally lineup lets players experience top performance anywhere without compromise.”
