Price: $99.99

The ROG 100W fast charger and dock is a special accessory that will provide both charging and docking capabilities. Unlike the dedicated dock above, this has limited capabilities, such as two USB-A ports and one HDMI 2.0 port. These ports should be enough for basic display output needs and also allow connecting a keyboard and mouse. Moreover, it can output 100W power for charging your ROG XBOX Ally X extremely fast.

3) ROG Xbox Ally (2-in-1) Premium Case

The ROG Xbox Ally (2-in-1) premium case is one of the best cases you can buy for the new Xbox Ally. The case features multiple layers to keep your handheld protected from numerous hazards. For example, the top layer makes the case waterproof, which will protect the handheld from accidental spills or light rain. The mid-layer is a hard shell that will protect the Xbox Ally if you accidentally drop it. The innermost layer is made of soft materials, which protect the handheld from scratches. There are also dedicated sections to store the charger and any SD cards you may have.

4) INIU 20000mAh 65W Ultra Compact Power Bank

Price: $42.99

If you’re planning to take the Xbox Ally X to your friend’s place or just want to play on the go, then you will need a power bank. While the Xbox Ally does feature an impressive battery life, it still won’t be enough for long gameplay sessions, especially if you play AAA games. Therefore, a power bank is a must, and we have the perfect one for you.

As the name suggests, the INIU Ultra Compact power bank is extremely compact and easy to carry, despite featuring a 20000mAh battery. The best part is that it can charge at 65W, which is what the boxed charger is also rated for. Also, there’s a tiny screen that can display the remaining battery life of the power bank.

5) 8BitDo Ultimate 2 Bluetooth Controller

Price: $69.99

The ROG Xbox Ally is significantly more comfortable to hold than some popular handhelds on the market. However, due to the weight of the internal components, the handheld is still a bit heavy. Therefore, it won’t be that comfortable in the long run. Using an external controller can greatly reduce the burden on your hands. Besides, you will need a controller anyway if you plan to hook up your Xbox Ally to a big screen TV.

Subsequently, the 8BitDo Ultimate 2 is one of the best controllers offering stellar features, connectivity, and comfort. It is lightweight and provides a comfortable yet firm grip. You can connect it to your handheld via the 2.4G wireless dongle or via Bluetooth without any latency issues. It also features Hall Effect sensors for both triggers and joysticks. These Hall Effect sensors are more accurate and remain free from stick drift issues.

Conclusion

Each accessory listed above serves a unique purpose and brings something to the table. If you want lots of I/O ports and other connectivity, the ROG Bulwark DG300 is there. However, if you want just an HDMI for basic display output and a few USB ports for keyboard and mouse, then the ROG 100W Fast Charger and Dock can be the perfect companion. Moreover, as the name suggests, it can also fast-charge your handheld.

There’s also the ROG Xbox Ally (2-in-1) premium case, which can protect your handheld and serve multiple purposes. The same goes for all the other accessories on this list. They all provide something unique. Therefore, you can bundle your ROG Xbox Ally with the accessories mentioned above.
