The Asus ROG Ally handheld is a competitor to the Steam Deck, but is the Z1 version anywhere near as good as the Z1 Extreme model? Let's find out.
When Asus first launched its ROG Ally gaming handled, it was instantly dubbed a Steam Deck killer. While it’s not without certain quirks, this label makes a lot of sense if you’re only comparing these two portable PCs from a performance standpoint. The Ryzen Z1 Extreme chip gave the Asus ROG Ally an edge over Valve’s Steam Deck. But what about the Z1 version?
Design In terms of design, the two consoles are exactly the same. They weigh 1.34 pounds and measure 11.04 x 4.38 x 0.84 inches. Available only in white, the consoles add a small amount of RGB lighting beneath the joysticks, but otherwise have a fairly muted, albeit sharp design. On the outside, both the Ryzen Z1 and the Z1 Extreme models are one and the same, but on the inside, they couldn’t be more different.
We’ve tested both consoles at 720p and at a 15-watt power draw, meaning Performance mode. The Z1 model averaged a mere 25 frames per second in Dying Light 2, and that’s only on medium settings, whereas the Z1 Extreme delivered an acceptable 43 fps. A less demanding game, like Strange Brigade, fared better with 68 fps for the Z1, but the Z1 Extreme still wins by 20 fps, averaging 88 frames per second.
Comparing these two sets of benchmarks tells us that the Z1 Extreme is 32% faster at Turbo mode; 28% faster at Turbo 25W mode; and 27% faster at Performance mode. On Silent mode, both devices are comparable.
