Published grade / five-factor mean
C 70/ 100

The letter is the published assessment. Missing factor evidence is labeled; it does not become a zero.

Why this grade

iFixit scored the ROG Ally 7/10. Strong repair-friendly hardware: battery, display, thumbsticks, fan and storage are all modular and straightforward, and per iFixit's current scorecard Asus now provides a good selection of repair parts and instructions (parts sold via iFixit). It runs open Windows with no part serialization, so software locks are not a barrier. Held back by a glued-in screen requiring adhesive cutting, a charge port and most buttons soldered to the mainboard, and Asus's mixed/evolving repair reputation (early units shipped with no committed parts supply, and Asus has a documented poor warranty/RMA track record). Good design, middling official-support consistency.
