The Asus ROG Ally X is now officially available to buy, with many retailers holding stock of the revamped handheld gaming PC. We're continually keeping an eye on stock to ensure no one misses out on picking up the portable, and we're pleased to say that supplies look pretty healthy right now. That said, it's currently a Best Buy exclusive in the US due to an ongoing retail partnership, so you'll be heading to one specific store for this one.

We recently shared our Asus ROG Ally X review, and while it hasn't knocked the original off our best gaming handheld list, it's a fantastic option for portable PC enthusiasts. Its improved battery live and upgraded RAM mean it'll hold up better running those big releases that usually bring rivals to their knees, especially since demanding system requirements can age portable systems like cheese.

In the US, you can pick up the Asus ROG Ally X handheld exclusively at Best Buy for $799, while Currys also finally has the portable PC listed for £799 for UK buyers. If we find any deals or better places to snag the handheld during our daily checks, we'll be sure to let you know, but you'll be able to catch the device below without paying over the odds.

At the moment, Best Buy says it’ll take two days to ship the ROG Ally X, with in-store pickups taking slightly longer. All fairly standard stuff, so you won't have to worry about any shenanigans when picking up the portable from Asus' retail partner.

It took long enough, but Currys finally has the ROG Ally X listed, and you can pick one up right now for home delivery or in-store collection. You'll want to enter you post code for an indication of specific delivery times, but it looks to be a standard 3-5 days wait for shipping.

If you'd rather go direct to Asus, you can grab the ROG Ally X at its normal price using the company's online store. Shipping will apparently take 2-4 working days, so we suspect it won't be any quicker or slower than going with a retailer.

Asus ROG Ally X: FAQ

What is the Asus ROG Ally X? 

YouTube YouTube
Watch On

Officially revealed during Computex 2024, the ROG Ally X is an enhanced version of Asus’ Windows 11 handheld gaming PC. It features the same AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme APU as the original but boasts 24GB faster LPDDR5X RAM, a full-sized 2208 M.2 SSD, and a beefier 80Wh battery. You won’t see a generation performance uplift compared to the OG device, and its specs are designed to offer up a refined experience when playing the latest games.

Weight 678g 608g

On top of that, Asus has given the design of the ROG Ally X an overhaul to improve ergonomics and offset any extra weight. At just 70g, the new handheld is only 10% heavier than the original, which can be attributed to its thinner cooling system and other internal changes. On the aesthetic front, the Ally X also wears a new black shell, something that helps set it apart visually from its white portable predecessor. 

When is the Asus ROG Ally X release date?

The ROG Ally X officially released on July 22, 2024, so you can now now pick up the handheld and have it in your hands within a couple of days. Of course, this is subject to availability, and while there are no out of stock signs showing up yet, it's always a possibility when taking about new gaming tech.

What is the Asus ROG Ally X price?

At launch, the Asus ROG Ally X costs $799 / £799, matching other premium handheld rivals like the MSI Claw. Naturally, we’ll need to wait for the release date dust to settle before seeing any deals, but if the original is anything to go by, we should see some price drops at some point in the future.
