I wanted to change my order from mid-range model to high range model in their official store, and i got stonewalled and delayed by their sales.&lt;p&gt;Last time, i sent my phone for repair, a 4 year old one. Quoted price for out of warranty repair was higher than the price of their newest gaming flagship phone.&lt;p&gt;Previously i sent my tablet for repairs - a broken screen - it came back with used touchscreen that was faulty, had no safety sticker on it(so i assume they just slapped an used one from other repair), and I had to send it back again.</text><parent_chain><item><author>adamkittelson</author><text>The ROG Ally seems like a really nice piece of hardware.
