A powerful beast lurking here!
||Posted .I had done my homework reviewing multiple gaming laptops over the past couple of months. I even purchased a few different brands trying to obtain that perfect mobile gaming machine. A few came close however they all had one thing in common, very poor build quality especially the screen. Behold we have the Asus GL502VT gaming laptop finally! At first I was like wow this is really cool looking and oh my the orange accents are bold. Then I fired it up and was stunned at the screen quality on this machine. The colors are vibrant and pop out at you. The laptop is surprisingly light for its class and very sturdy build quality. The sound quality is above average for only having two speakers which are nicely placed on opposite sides of the trackpad. The 12GBs of DDR4 are more than adequate for getting the job done. The NVidia GTX 970M is a powerhouse for a mobile GPU. This baby delivers 120GBs of graphic bandwidth on a 192bit PCIe 3.0 bus. Plays all your games on High or Higher settings maxxed out at 1080P with ease. The only negative I would have to say is the pokey 1TB 5400rpm mechanical hard drive Asus included with this laptop. "Do yourself a favor" Swap out for an SSD HD and or M2 SSD. You will not regret. I replaced the mechanical hard drive with a Samsung 850 EVO 1TB SSD. What a difference! Night and day, From the included screen shot I attached you can see this makes this laptop scream with performance. Boots in less than 5 seconds flat! Go grab one today and get your gaming on! You will not regret it!

Great Laptop!!!
||Posted .I haven't had a laptop in a couple years and was in the market for one, my friend recommended this too me and I'm glad he did. I love it and have no complaints. It's exactly what I need and what I was looking for. I have no regrets and would recommend this to anyone in the market for a new laptop.

Keyboard's keycap broken
||Posted .I purchased one of this laptop and made a replacement return because the keycap was broken (fall off). Otherwise that was a nice laptop. When i get my replacement (2nd), the keyboard was fine, but I not sure why the system get frozen sometime and need to wait for about 30 seconds and it started working again. The reason why I still keep the laptop was because I went back to my home country and past the 14 days retur period.

Colors displayed by the screen are yellowish.
||Posted .The laptop works really well justifying the horse power that is packed into the device. Unfortunately the display of the laptop is not that great. The display has a yellowish tint and no amount of software tweaks( Disabling ASUS splendid utility, Windows color management profiles nor the intel HD graphics control pannel defaults could fix the problem ) would help in correcting the whites on the display. Whites look yellowish and it feels irritating to eyes after working on it for small period of time. The laptop is currently not in US as it has been taken to other country. Hope to get it fixed at an ASUS service center. It's really not worth sending $899 if you get a yellowish looking display. To show the problem I have also attached picture comparing the display of an old laptop Hp pavalion DM-4 1024 and the ROG GL502-VT

Prepare to Drop Another $100
||Posted .I am sure most of you who are reading this are drawn to the GTX 970M which is one of the most outstanding features of this laptop. It runs Total War Warhammer with ease. Another great feature is the screen which has no glare! The last laptop I had was 6 years old and glare was the most annoying thing ever. Te most negative thing about this laptop is the hard drive which is a slow slow SLOOOOWW 5400 RPM. Granted, it does lead to improve battery life over a 7500 rpm hard drive be prepared for long load times. This is why I dropped $100 for a 256 GB M.2 NGFF PCIe Gen3 x4, NVME Solid state drive SSD. After doing this I moved the OS to the SSD and now booting the laptop takes like 5 seconds. If you plan to do this make sure to buy a M2 x 3mm screw since the laptops does not come with it. Overall, a good ASUS laptop in the $1200 range, but do yourself a favor and buy a SSD and transfer the OS when you get it. It will save you a huge headache later.

Great Product
||Posted .Overall great product for the money. The GTX 970m is a great mobile gpu. You will be able to achieve decent frame rates at 1080p. The keyboard on this laptop is also quite good as is the track pad. One of the reasons I chose this laptop is the form factor. It is not giant and bulky but it has the performance to game. And if you want you can always hook it to an external monitor. Now for my few complaints. For 1199.00 I would expect at least a 7200 rpm drive. A 5400 rpm drive is unacceptable for a laptop at this price point. Luckily you can upgrade to a ssd easily. My second complaint is the screen is a little dull and viewing angles could be better. And finally it can really be a fingerprint magnet. If you are ocd like me it will probably have you cleaning it daily. But overall this is a great laptop for gaming at a decent price.
