Best Buy Has the Xbox Ally X Ryzen Z2 Extreme Handheld Gaming PC Starting at $790 Ahead of Black Friday

The Asus ROG Xbox Ally X is still one of the best Windows gaming handheld PCs on the market. It's powerful enough to run even the latest AAA PC games thanks to the updated AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme processor. The Xbox interface is also intuitive and easy to use. In fact, IGN's Jackie Thomas recommends getting the Xbox Ally (and Ally X) over a Steam Deck. And even if you didn't like the Windows interface, you can install the Steam OS on virtually any PC.

Best Buy is offering a bigger discount than usual on open box Asus ROG Xbox Ally X handheld gaming PCs. Instead of paying $1,000 retail, you can pay as little as $789.99 for a "Fair Condition" model. Personally, I'd recommend getting one in "Excellent Condition" for $849.99. These are Geek Squad verified preowned units that include a 15-day return policy. The better graded "excellent condition" units are in like-new condition both functionally and cosmetically with very low usage time. They may also include most or all of their original warranty.

The Asus ROG Xbox Ally X is one powerful handheld. It has recently been superseded by the Xbox Ally X20 , but performance-wise they are identical. Like it's successor, the Xbox Ally X is equipped with the latest gen AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme processor, 24GB of LPDDR5X RAM, and a 1TB SSD. It runs off the Windows operating system, but with Xbox integration. The nomenclature might be confusing, but the Xbox Ally X is really more of an evolution of the the Asus ROG Ally X handheld than it is an actual Xbox console.
