Best Buy has recently refreshed its inventory of “excellent condition” open box Asus ROG Xbox Ally X handheld gaming PCs. Note only that, the retailer has decided to temporarily drop the price to $869.99 with free delivery. Excellent condition units usually cost anywhere between $920 and $950. These are the best graded Geek Squad verified preowned units and are in like-new condition both functionally and cosmetically with very low usage time. Because many of these are either brand new with dented packaging or are 30-day customer returns (usually from buyers’ remorse), some units even include most or all of its original warranty.

The Xbox Ally X Is the New Handheld Gaming PC to Beat

The Asus ROG Xbox Ally X is the most powerful handheld gaming PC you can get. It’s equipped with the newest 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. Jacqueline Thomas sums it up quite well in her Xbox Ally X review:

Jackie also goes on to say that “the Asus ROG Xbox Ally X is easily the best handheld gaming PC available right now.” Compared to other gaming handhelds equipped with the same Z2 Extreme CPU, the Xbox Ally X is actually reasonably priced. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 costs $1,100 (and actually just increased in price) and the MSI Claw A8 costs $1,150.
