Is ASUS ROG Ally resilient enough to survive intense torture?

Now, ASUS ROG Ally has undergone comprehensive durability testing by JerryRigEverything. Let's explore how robust this product truly is!

Zack reveals that while gaming, the dual fans inside ASUS ROG Ally start spinning, and within a few minutes, it heats up, making the expelled air from the fans uncomfortable. This temperature issue could potentially be resolved through a future update.

A YouTuber conducted a scratch test, revealing scratches at level 6 on the handheld gaming device's screen and deeper grooves at level 7. The device features Gorilla Glass Victus and also has a DXC coating on the top to reduce glare.

Zack mentions that the illuminated strip on the back of ROG Ally appears to glow, but it's simply a three-dimensional color-changing sticker. Subsequently, a YouTuber tests the durability of the handheld gaming console using his knife. The directional controls, menu buttons, and trigger, all made of plastic, are susceptible to scratches. The ABXY buttons on the right side of the handheld control panel are also prone to scratches, but the letters beneath a translucent layer provide effective protection.

The three-dimensional RGB logo at the bottom corner gets scratched, and the color strip on the back is removable. However, Zack assures that it won't easily get damaged during users' gameplay. ASUS ROG Ally withstands flames for only 3 seconds, after which part of the screen turns black. Normally, it takes 10 seconds for the product to recover from dead pixels, but this process might take a bit longer if the device heats up during gameplay.

Finally, Zack attempts to bend ASUS ROG Ally with significant pressure. When bent from the back, both edges of the device separate at the corner. The handheld gaming console then bends from the front, but it doesn't break. You can witness this in the video below.
