Customer Ratings & Reviews

’I've been using the ASUS TUF Gaming A16 for several weeks now, and overall I’m very happy with it. For the price range, it delivers excellent gaming performance at 1080p thanks to the RTX 5070 GPU and fast 165 Hz panel — games like Apex Legends, Forza Horizon 5, and Cyberpunk 2077 run smoothly on high settings with solid frame rates. Performance: The AMD Ryzen 9 processor paired with 32 GB of RAM makes this laptop fast not just for games but also for productivity tasks like video editing, streaming, and multitasking. I’ve never experienced lag switching between apps or during heavy workloads. Display & Gameplay: The 165 Hz FHD+ screen is responsive and fluid, which really helps with fast-paced games. The colors and brightness are good for everyday use, although it’s not quite as vibrant as a higher-end OLED panel. Still, for this price point it’s very solid. Thermals & Noise: Thermals are handled well — it stays cool under long gaming sessions — but the fans can get loud when running demanding games. Not a deal-breaker, but worth noting if you’re sensitive to fan noise. Storage & Memory: The 1 TB SSD gives plenty of space for games and programs, and the 32 GB RAM future-proofs the machine for the next few years. Upgradeability is good if you ever want to expand. Build & Extras: I like the sturdy TUF build quality — feels durable and well-made. The keyboard is comfortable for both gaming and typing, and connectivity covers all the essentials.

This laptop was worth every penny. The gaming performance in a mobile package is unlike anything I've owned before. The only gripe I have with this model, is that the vRAM limits *some* of the more demanding games. With only 8 GB vRAM, it is infeasable to run some games at 4K, but of cource the device is not designed for it, so it honestly shouldn't be a deciding factor, as it is not it's intended use case. But at 1080p or 1440p, pretty much any game can be remped to ULTRA settings, and handle it like a beast. The CPU is well able to keep up with the GPU, and the 32gb of DDR5 can seriously game, as well as multitask MANY applications. The battery life is adequate, 2-3 hours gaming at max settings, you can squeeze another by lowering them. The screen impresses me, 165hz gaming is stupendous. All around, this gaming PC has impressed me at every turn, and I am incredibly happy with my purchase, and am looking forward to many years running this machine.

I purchased this computer to replace the asus g16 i had thats screen cracked just by opening it. It is not as powerful as the g16 but it is way more durable and the battery lasts much longer. I primarily use it for programming our robot for first competitions and for cad design of the the same. A nice feature it has is a built in eithernet port which saves on carring a usb to eithernet adapter. It also runs alot cooler than the g16. I wish it had a touch screen but aside from that its proven to be a reliable and durable computer.

Laptop was recommended for my price range and i have tonsay i have not been disappointed. It has done everything i need it too with ease, has an incredible battery life, and doesnt even get hot enough to require a cooling pad during normal gaming sesions.

If you're looking for a laptop that can handle games at 1080p up to 1440p at 65+ FPS, then this is the perfect laptop. Though it only has 8gb of VRAM, it does not struggle at all. Playing triple-A games at 1440p was never a problem. The fans aren't that loud, and I've gamed in a plane, and the laptop wasn't as loud as the plane's engine. It’s a thin laptop so it makes it very easy to pack and go. The only cons I could think of are that there's no display port and usb ports but you can find a way. If you want a gaming laptop you can take anywhere and don't have to worry about the fan annoying other people around you then this is the one to buy.

This laptop is a dream come true, it excels at everything I need such as my architecture drawings and other heavy workloads. And when it comes to gaming , I find this laptop preforms better then mainstream laptops from other companies and also out pacing fully built mid tier gaming pc's. The battery lasts to a perfect 12-13 hours and can preform very well on integrated graphics , find my self gaming like on a full size rig anywhere I go with this laptop.

Fast, fashionable, reliable! It is not overheating, it is quiete! RTX 5070 is the one! Highly Recomanded Product!

Beautiful design, great performance, and amazing battery life. Great value for the price! I use it for AI development, and it runs perfectly.

The ASUS TUF series offers great hardware performance at a competitive price point, but unfortunately, the build quality leaves much to be desired. Out of the box, the screen was slightly bent/curved on the right side. Also either the board or the cooling system may have been pushing the keyboard upward. On the positive side, the 1080p display is excellent for FPS gaming, delivering smooth visuals that make fast-paced titles enjoyable. The system runs games reliably and has the specs needed for demanding titles. That said, the fit and finish issues—like the warped screen and raised keyboard—take away from what could have been a near-perfect budget gaming laptop. Overall: If you don’t mind some minor flaws here and there, this is still a solid machine with strong gaming performance for the price.

I got this laptop during the techtober sale and it was so worth it. This laptop is a beast and can do it all. I wanted a portable gaming PC and that's what I got! It runs every game I've tried so far really well. I got it mainly for gaming but also for drawing. Its been working super smoothly for that as well, I have genuinely noticed no issues. I also picked it up in store at my nearest location and the workers were very nice and helpful the whole time. Definitely worth your money!!

So far so good. The battery drains pretty quickly when gaming. It lasts only a couple of hours and then I have to plug it in. If you are doing regular computer stuff it lasts about 8 hours. It’s a big upgrade from desktop gaming PC and I’m pretty happy with the performance. My games are heavily modded and I have had no problems with performance. I don’t really do online gaming so I’m not sure how it would handle it.

It took me 8 hours to transfer over from 2019 specced Acer Nitro 5, with 8GB RAM, a laptop GTX 1650Ti, and an Intel i5-10300H, but after getting everything off my HDD onto a 2nd SSD and popping that 2nd SSD in I was off to the races. The first week was bliss. Sure, the fans can sound like a jet engine taking off, but thats actually what I want to hear when I make this thing run BoneWorks (and it runs the game extremely well... why dont more people try to do PCVR with one of these?). After my first BIOS update though, things started going south. Now, when I go to open a game, it feels like Windows rolls an invisible D20, and if I fail the save the entire system just reboots.... for no apparent reason AT ALL. It did this twice when I went to launch Megabonk a few days ago, and it did it to me again tonight when I went to launch Prey 2017. I'm actually glad it didnt decide to do it while I was in VR, or I'd of probably been BIG MAD after I got done getting my stomach to stop doing blackflips. Don't get me wrong, computer will rip thru EVERYTHING I throw at it, but the restart issue? PLEASE FIX IT, ASUS!! P.S: Battery life need not apply due to the nature of the loads this baby will carry... it stays plugged in and on a cooling pad unless being transported. As for that recommendation... the restart issue is the only caveat I have against it, I hope you arent planning a game marathon!!

This laptop is a real beast for gaming. Runs smoothly on high settings with almost no heating issues. The fans are not too loud and it stays stable even during long gaming sessions. The display refresh rate and colors are excellent. It delivers both in performance and design. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a gaming laptop.

I really like this laptop. I'm currently playing Destiny 2 and Diablo 4. It runs them on the highest settings. I didn't want to spend over $1500, so I waited for the black Friday sales and got it for $1200. For that price, it's worth it. My previous laptop was a several year old Asus Q series 2-in-1 laptop. It was not able to play Hogwarts Legacy even on the lowest settings. This one can play it on high settings with no problem, so that showed me right away how big of an upgrade it is. The only thing I might miss between this and my old one is the touchscreen.

Great pc, no problems with gaming, pretty easy to transport and helped me a lot on my vacation

Nice laptop and high quality for the price! Games play smoothly with almost zero noticeable lag using ultra graphic settings (mmorpg) Sound is great. Would certainly recommend this laptop for someone looking for a gaming laptop on a budget. Multitasking is quick. I use it for gaming, graphics and video editing, 3D printing and laser engraving/cutting.

I have used my laptop for a variety of things including gaming (no AAA games yet), running limited parameter large language models (think early chatGPT models), and game development software. I was able to do each of these without overheating or significant fan noise. I've really enjoyed it so far.

Beast laptop! Does very good on CS and Elden ring on max settings. Battery life is very good ~ 8 hours of screen time.

The ASUS TUF A16 with Ryzen 9 270, 32GB RAM, and RTX 5070 (8GB) delivers excellent performance for gaming and productivity. It handles AAA titles at high/ultra settings in 1200p with stable FPS and runs cool under load. While there are better high-end options, this model offers outstanding value — especially if you get it on sale. Great choice for users who want strong specs at a reasonable price.

Love the build quality of this laptop. TUF is legit naming. It's ridgid and light weight. The specs are good, the performance is solid, I was impressed. First Asus computer purchase for myself. I currently use a surface laptop 7 with Snapdragon plus and 16GB RAM. I also use my MacBook pro with m4pro and 24GB RAM. I wanted a computer to game on. It's thick, cools well, and performs well.
