I'm typically a Mac user because I work in software development so I was pleasantly surprised by the build quality. Certainly not the best and not on the same level as more premium gaming laptops but TBH I was expecting something much cheaper feeling. I was also happy to find that it really isn't as bulky as I was expecting, it's really not that much heavier or bulkier than the 15 MacBook Pros I have for work and personal use. I used to be a PC tech about 10 years ago and worked at Circuit City and Best Buy and I was expecting the behemoth gaming laptops of old. Same goes for the charger, really not that bulky and totally reasonable to carry around.
Overall I've been impressed with the performance I've gotten. Been running iRacing at around 120 FPS. Have yet to run ACC or Race room but I'm not expecting any issues there. The only thing that's been a little strange is early in gameplay the processor will spike and I get a quick freeze. I think that has to do with hardware modes switching to be more performant so that's really just something I need to investigate but I don't think it's a real issue.
People have mentioned that the screen color is off and that's definitely true. But that said, I didn't buy this to do photo editing and it really isn't that noticeable for gaming. I have this side by side with an AOC 32 inch monitor and the colors are different, but outside of that I don't think I really would have noticed too much. My observation is that the colors are less bright. so a pure green moves closer to a darker forest-y green.
I gave battery rating 5 stars but honestly I don't really run it on battery. That said, I have had it on battery during light use for a whole day without it needing a recharge when I was setting it up and downloading games. So it does seem capable of being your every day computer on the go while also giving you very solid gaming capability.
Overall, for the price, I couldn't have expected a better laptop. I was on the fence between this and something equivalent with an Intel processor instead of the AMD and I feel quite happy having gone this route. Again, this isn't the end all be all of gaming laptops, but if you want something in the mid-range that feels like it can punch up a bit, I'd say this is for you. I'm quite picky with these sorts of things and I don't normally write reviews so take from that what you will.
PS: I think the cooling is just fine, I saw the other video of the guy that wasn't recommending to buy it and the only thing I got is that if you mess with the cooling design, probably you will get lower temperatures on main components (CPU and GPU) but other components as SSDs will work at higher temps. The cooling is well designed to cool ALL components inside (CPU, GPU, RAM, SSDs). Asus has done a great job building great laptops for a great price. That's why they are completely sold out! Sure, there are many laptops that could be even better but this is the best bang for the buck and it is hard to find such a great combination of good things in another laptop of this price.
Top reviews from other countries
The laptop is very specific and not for everybody.
The main market is the casual gamers with a need for mobility and heavy programmers especially ones who play with AI.
Pros: USB-C allows to connect a docking station. Low noise for office tasks (rare fan activation).
I am not a pro or addicted gamer but I play COD a bit. The laptop serves the purpose well but I use 32' screen for that.
Cons: Heavy. The sound is complete crap. But having Bluetooth I am using a sound system or a headset. No reasons to set a low rating for that. If you want to watch movies you will get no pleasure with in-built sound.
Wake up from sleep is slow for some reason. All my other win10 laptops wake up almost immediately. This one takes some time (5-20 seconds).
No serious issues so far. I had to update all drivers to make it work.
