Sure, but he already owns a Steam Deck. Wouldn't buying an entirely new device be much more of a drastic change than spending 15 minutes installing Windows on the Steam Deck?

Community Reviews

This ROG Xbox Ally bundle is best viewed as a portable Windows gaming handheld for on the go play, especially if you want an out of the box setup for Game Pass, Steam, emulation, and cloud streaming. The built in grips and Xbox like ergonomics stand out, and the 7 inch form factor is praised for portability and comfort. The bundle value is helped by the included games and Costco return policy. The main knocks are the underpowered Z2 A chip, the small screen for first person shooters, and a messy game redemption process that can require AMD verification steps.

You gotta go to amdrewards.com enter the code then download an app to the device then link your steam account then you get it I think.

It's a farking mess honestly
Yeah, what is this nonsense? I got an email from Costco with a single redemption code that had instructions to go to the AMD site, which needed a new registration to begin the process. After you're verified and logged in for that you have to install a "AMD Product Verification Tool" in order to complete the redemption? I was trying to do this on my laptop but it looks like you'd have to do this on the handheld. Pretty ridiculous. Just give me the code(s) for the games and let me redeem it on Steam already.

I Downloaded AMD Product Verification Tool on the device I bought in Costco, but after installation it is asking download again. I did it 4 time no luck.

I think the best thing about this deal is that it's at Costco. You can see for yourself if you like it and if not, return it. It really is an underpowered unit and Windows does not make it any faster. That said, if you're looking to play GamePass games, this is an available, affordable option. If you want to play games on Steam that you feel would work well on a Steam Deck, you're going to have a similar (not same) experience on this device. If that's not powerful enough, then don't buy it.
Would I buy it? No. But there's so few good devices that are affordable right now, this might be a decent pickup for some people who are not looking for much. If you're into emulation, this device is going to be excellent. The one thing I will say about this device is that it's very flexible. You can install Bazzite if you want a SteamOS experience, you can dual boot with Windows, you can install SteamOS itself (not officially supported).
People spend a lot of time talking about how bad it is without acknowledging what it can do well. It's a great streamer for Xbox, Playstation, GamePass, GeForce Now, and Boosteroid, among others. It's great for emulation and it's great for Steam Deck levels of gameplay.
Good luck!
can this play Luna games from Amazon?

Yes, Amazon Luna is a cloud gaming service. It will work fine with the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally.

To you and future readers.
For the verification tool to work, adjust your system clock to current time/date and then run it. Should work.

I ended up buying it and am trying to find out more about this now. Gaming handhelds are completely left out of the return policy literature. I've found a number of posts on the web that say gaming consoles are not part of the 90 day limit on returns, but they are usually referring to PS5 or something undeniably a 'console'. Costco could say that this item is classified as an 'electronics' so it'd be 90 days. Someone on Reddit claiming to be a supervisor at Costco said the Legion Go is actually electronics and so it's 90 days. I'd still insist this is a gaming console but it's not a deal killer for me right now. At worst I've got 90 days to see if I really like this thing enough to keep it, or if I find a Go for the same price or less and would like that instead.

Looking at all the valuable input in the thread made me realize it's the easiest, safest, no-nonsense solution for me. I don't want to worry about refurbished or used discontinued units. Gaming handhelds are starting to become harder to find deals on - or availability. The Steam Deck is already sold out completely (I don't want to be restricted to Steam OS, anyway, but that's besides this point). I don't want to fumble around with streaming to see how acceptable it is or isn't. The higher model ROG Ally X just saw a $200 increase in Japan in the last 48 hours. The Legion Go pricing also looks like it's going up. So yeah, this looks like a pretty good deal to me right now and it couldn't be from a better store. If nothing else I've got 90 days to solidify or regret it. Thanks for all the insight and happy gaming!
good catch. the legion go 2 (z2 & z2 extreme) and the legion go s (z2 go) are classified as a "pc" and are therefore under the 90 day electronics returns, while this device is a console and has the standard item return policy (100% satisfaction guarantee). same situation as the ps5 and Nintendo switch of the past, and the PS portal.
