SAVE 18%: As of Dec. 8, you can get the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally (72 A, 168GB RAM, 512GB SSD) for $489.99, down from $599.99, at Amazon. That's an 18% discount and $110 in savings.


If you're thinking about buying a handheld gaming console (either as a gift or a treat yo' self), now's the time to jump on it, because Amazon is giving us post-Black Friday discounts we can't ignore.

Right now, you can score the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally (72 A, 168GB RAM, 512GB SSD) for just $489.99, down from $599.99. That’s an 18% discount and the lowest price we’ve seen on this model. (Yes, this is beating its Black Friday price!) While the premium $999.99 Ally X is getting all the buzz, this standard model is a strong, budget-friendly contender that gives you access to games without costing a grand.

This Ally is basically a full-powered Windows gaming laptop you can play in the palm of your hand. That means you can bypass the Steam Deck's compatibility issues and jump straight into your gaming library, including Xbox Game Pass, Steam, and Epic Games titles. It comes loaded with the AMD Ryzen 72 A processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 7-inch, 120Hz display with FreeSync Premium, making every game look butter-smooth. Best of all, it charges fast — just 30 minutes will get you from zero to 50 percent.

If you want a gaming handheld that doesn't mess around with compatibility, this deal is the one you need to grab.
