Asus ROG Ally X With 2TB Storage Drops to $799 at Best Buy

Best Buy is knocking $200 off the Asus ROG Ally X, bringing it down to $799.99 — though availability appears limited to certain zip codes, so your mileage may vary.

The ROG Ally X runs AMD's Z1 Extreme APU paired with 24GB of LPDDR5X-7500 RAM and a 2TB SSD, which is genuinely rare at this price point in the handheld space. The screen is a 7-inch 1080p panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. Compared to the original ROG Ally, the X doubles the battery capacity to 80Wh — good for roughly 5–6 hours of playtime — and adds a second USB port so you can charge and connect peripherals or an external display at the same time. According to the article, the Z1 Extreme outpaces the Ryzen Z2, Z2 Go, and Z2A chips found in comparably priced handhelds; only the Z2 Extreme beats it, and that chip lives in devices costing $1,000 or more.

The ROG Ally X launched in late 2025 and sits at the top end of the mid-range handheld market. Asus has been competing directly with Valve's Steam Deck and Lenovo's Legion Go S in a segment that's grown rapidly over the past few years, and the Ally X's combination of raw CPU performance and large battery has made it one of the more well-regarded Windows handheld options available.

At $799 this is one of the better prices the Ally X has seen, and given the zip-code restriction it may not last long or reach everyone. Worth checking your local Best Buy availability sooner rather than later.
