I Own The ASUS ROG Ally, But I Am Tempted To BUY!
Переглядів 624Рік тому
I never cared much about steam, So it was easy for me to pick the ROG Ally over the steam deck. But now with the new OLED version, I've started to come around to what valve is doing. I think they have a master plan with the steam deck. But regardless of all that, the specs alone are very impressive like genuinely a massive improvement! It still can't replace the ROG ally for me since it's my co...

Your phone is now a gaming console! ~ Backbone Review
Переглядів 227Рік тому
So I've had it for three weeks now, my first impressions were good and now I'm certain. The backbone really does make your phone into a gaming console that in terms of specs can destroy the Nintendo switch. Now if only we could get Nintendo switch quality games on mobile .-.

ROG Ally pros and cons after 2 Months!
Переглядів 17 тис.Рік тому
I've had my rog ally for basically two months now, since day one! And these are my biggest pros and cons of the device. Do I still love it after two months with it? especially since I went through the first two months, rough times v.v
Enjoy Your rog Ally in the dark with FLUX!
Переглядів 80Рік тому
If you want to play your rog ally in the dark, then you will want to lower the screen's brightness below the 0 brightness that asus gives you. So you can use an app called flux which allows you to not only have a blue light filter, but also just dim down the screen. So you can enjoy your rog ally in the dark with negative brightness.
This is the BEST controller for your phone!

Just bought the backbone for my iphone 12 mini, thought it'd be great since i'm always moving around with my phone in hand and it would be great to play some games on it. I was not disappointed \[^-^]/
This laptop Beats laptops under $400 ~ Dell Latitude 7390
Переглядів 12 тис.Рік тому
This is the Dell Latitude 7390, It can be found on ebay for around $200, and it destroys most new laptops under $400 dollars! The only thing that's worth getting at that price point are the new and few 13th gen intel computers and maybe some amd laptops for the apus. Aside from that this used business laptop is pretty much undefeated because it's hard to sell a full laptop for 200 bucks let alo...

Using a used dell optiplex 5060 which has an i7 8700, 8gb ram, 256gb ssd and an AMD RX 6400 I built a gaming PC. This bad boy can handle pretty much any game at 1080p 60fps, newer games will have to run at low settings but older games can easily run at high settings on this pc. Not to mention the cpu is strong enough to do video editing and streaming easily. This is a great starting pc for anyo...
It wont charge is you gaming at 15 watts. You need to set your TDP at 12 watts at least for it charge while gaming
BRO AM I USED TO LOW FRAMES BUT HOW DOES THIS LITTLE THING GET 100+ FRAMES WHEN MY PC GETS ONLY 30 IM DEFINITELY BUYING A OPEN BOX ONE!
This is what I’ve been looking for. Thanks for the education 🫡
Thank you! This is a big help for screen brightness sensitive people 😊
Can i buy this laptop now? In 2025
U are the bravest man alive showing Zelda emulation on Yt even when tyrannical Nintendo copyright abusers are running around in the wild
The guy in the video says he doesn't know what to do with what does security lock. That little security lock was made so that if you use it in your job or take it to a college you can secure it to a desk you buy a special lock and the only way to remove it is for you to know the code for the lock so they can't remove it from your desk .
This model seems to have high failure rates back in the day. Are yours still working?
Just got the core i5 8250u 8gb ram 500gb SSD variant, the laptop is so fast and I even play GTA 5 on it surprisingly runs smoothly at 30-35fps 😂
gta 5 runs good bro?
Eighth generation i5 on laptops is a big revolution
@@fabiovinicius4833 yes bro cuz my friend kept saying it wont run but i got the game anyway and i play on normal settings and it runs perfectly
I found one for 379 and at that price point I say that's worth it.
Nice video very detailed I like it Uncle JD approves lol
I find it for 378$, with a i7 8th Gen with 16gb ram and 256ssd m2. Is it a good deal?
NO
It would be fine if it wasn't refurbished by the dealer, repairer and the place of purchase was USA.
Please mine is not running windows 11 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Is this the normal and not extreme?
i dont get about the cons in Silent, Performance, and Turbo explanation its a non sense review
Is this laptop any good for FL stuio ?
It should handle it, But don't expect great performance. if you want solid performance, try something like this with the newer intel 12th gen processor. Or just get a full desktop computer. www.ebay.com/itm/355890983558?itmmeta=01J3RDZXV4W8HX2M9GV4VJD8KV&hash=item52dcc17286:g:99UAAOSw-VRmJtb0&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA4IaATGkzbEjlKdZSq2FpyFE5Xl3rRRAqevK9Q6Ycafuhi%2B97nqb4dE4ekJ0iMD%2BMKH%2B%2B20lpbtc%2FJKlVEpNzJeMF9nYIgYaQooU9ykAnOXR3bTKX6SCgUu%2FdkgJ6vzPOyfprpqvdGgYSdYFUQITTaarwoD2cXfIlFcGCeYeiWXuZ7S5bPTCo03qwZ99JJEcmuSlc0tqkWvyyoIblqmzldH5tt%2B75E5c6TT9D%2B97H7XcUM3a4%2B%2BkUl0i2qOJMUAt6bL83QLwv0P0Z2RaFS2nxyRO9ZzpLs5DqvNRjwpTaUD%2BV%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR9Td_42eZA
@@MrJustek thankyou i found a Dell Latitude 7390 I’m from the UK so on amazon its like 200 but its decent enough for wha Amma be using it for tbh i dont trust any other sight than amazon or ide be saving money 😂
imagine trying to make is it worth video with everyone else data and not even using the product yourself.
Well I have the product now and It's worth it if you get it from bestbuy open-box for $325 :D Edit: It did have the dead sd card issue though v.v
Just got one without battery and SSD for 100 EUR. I'm getting a 16Gb ram (2400hz 1.2v), new battery(plus the Cable Cord ) and a SSD (NVME 3.0 512Gb ) for another 100$ on aliexpress. I believe for portability, good battery life ( planning to do Linux + Undervolt ) and light weight ( 1,1~1,2kg ), is the perfect match for my needs. The worst thing about it is the only one slot for ram upgrade. Losing dual channel is a big hit.
Is this rog better than y the steam deck ?
Yup, Windows + VRR gives you far more tools to deal with struggling games than the slightly more powerful Deck.
Just ordered one for $305 new. Saw no other option at that point
It's a great Laptop for Business and Leisure
Do you mind giving the cemu graphic config and mod to get that performance? Also the manual 17w config and fan curve as well
I just bought my open box extreme at best buy for $370! I have ZERO regrets buying this beast of a pc
Thank you for your video. It helped me to decide and just bought one 😊
Is it good ?
I picked my non extreme up for $360 and love it. Watched a few videos on maximizing performance, and have no issues. No complaints here!
30-45fps is very smooth on the Z1. Where is this tech on PC?
I got mine a couple months ago from Best Buy new for $299 because of a price error mine actually made it out the warehouse before they could cancel my order lol. Still, im kind of wanting to just get the z1 extreme. Unless ur playing a lot of retro games, the performance is just okay at best. Having to put everything too low and still set resolution to like 900p just to still get only 30-35 fps is hard for me
How does this do on Fallout 4?
This guy tried it on the z1 extreme, you can probably expect a little over half the fps on the z1. Maybe 60% the fps. ua-cam.com/video/GRf9MPAthoo/v-deo.htmlsi=uAmWyXs9YSuL6khL
Pretty good review. Writing from your examined item. And what are you are saying is true. Bought this laptop around your said price for studying only. Fits perfectly for the role.
Does is run window 11 well ? And like watching movies and using the bronswer is a good experience?
@@ENTheforest Yeah, surprisingly. I am using Firefox, it does take few seconds to load my DuckDuckGo homepage, but nothing related to laptop itself. Still using for studies and I play GW2 on it with everything lowest with no lags lol. So still amazed how good this stuff for such price.
@@ENTheforest Oh and movies, didn't try 4k, don't expect it will run that smoothly, but daily tv shows watching without any lags.
The original Z1 is better. Saved you some time ❤
Awesome video. Heres a tip for everyone who got the rog ally. DONT CARE ABOUT FPS. Its so much more fun to play if your only fps expectation is that it is playable.
Might as well get a used Z1 Extreme for the same price for a Z1 or Z1 open box. Got mine for $400 barely used pretty much in new condition.
honestly at this point the rog allys are being given away with these low prices bro. Best deal in computers I've seen in a while 🗿
I wanted to know if it is damaging in any way
No, this doesn't damage it in any way. It's just like using a low power charger, takes longer to charge the rog ally but it won't hurt it. however, the powerbank might be running at max power from 100% to 0% so the power bank is in a little bit of pain......but power banks are just big batteries, and they can take a lot of abuse, plus they are cheap. I've had no issues, and technically speaking this shouldn't cause any issues at all, even the power bank should be good long term.
@@MrJustek ok thank you for clarifying, a reddit post I remember regarding something similar where someone asked if using an 18w spare powerbank be any good, they said it would be disastrous, their words exactly, hence I was sceptical, but thank you 😇
Perfectly informational video, thank you for posting it ❤
What about one for 200
My dude, clean your camera lens
z1 is literally ass, theres always gonna be that moment you want to play a sick AAA title
Just manage to get a non extreme one for around 145eur trough signing a contract with my ISP, and got 2gbit download and 1gbit upload speed in the package for 37eur a month for the next 2 years. Have a PC for any more demanding games, so this thing should be great for emulation, indie and more casual games. Can't wait for it to arrive. Happy to see it can also handle diablo 4,intought it would struggle with it. I plan on using lossless scaling program from steam for fsr and frame gen, plan to heavily debloat windows and do any optimisation I can think of, so really should be good. Just wonder how deep rock galactic survivor runs on it.
Grabbed one at $299 new when it was on sale a few weeks ago. Super happy with it at that price. Plays GamePass cloud games very well.

It's good to play cloud gaming???
hey hi 😀I have a question , do you think the screen btightness a little bit low , or do you have any issues? I bougjt the non illuminated keyboard version for my mom but the . screen was not bright ..I send it back I will try tje model with illuminated keyboard
I won't ever have a laptop without a backlit keyboard. the only way to fly ;)
Btw, even though the VRR is advertized as 48hz-120hz, it still has Low Framerate Compensation for anything lower than 48hz and is still very smooth.
Its now 299.00 so i pulled the trigger on it and bought a 1tb ssd on Amazon
I have a Xiaomi power bank with same outputs but it didn't work at all!! Any help?
I picked one up on the local craigs list for $200. Nobody wanted it. I did. I replaced the SATA M.2 disk with a Patriot P300 NVmE disk. When I boot it, I get 8 penguins in top of the screen... The 8 threads really make speed on Slackware Linux. And the screen is magnificent. The machine is called 'chroom' on my fruttenboel site. Very glad with it.
I got one for 230 after taxes open box
How does COD run on it? I have a steam deck, do not feel duel boosting and have been thinking about the ally non extreme because it’s cheaper plus I’ve been wanting to play games I can’t play on the SD. Fortnite, warzone, destiny 2. Games like that.
How's it? Any update? Did you buy?
Thanks for informative video
great video man! i wish you test total play time to see how many hours you get. for 15w for example
Can the z1 run cod warzone?
Yes..i have no issues at all!
@@Godson2324 man I just returned the z1 and got the extreme yesterday damn I should have waited for your response
@@rickyazz529did the normal z1 run cod ? I have the z1 extreme but i want to sell it and get the z1
@@Kushalchemy if you have the extreme just keep it don’t downgrade, it will run tho but I bet it sucks unless you tweak it a lot
@@Kushalchemy I sold my extreme 2 days ago , got the legion go , super bright and bigger screen , now the ally’s screen is badass too so it’s kinda the same
Great and honest Review towards the z1 standard!
