    For the specs it's pretty good, but don't expect to actually play games on the go, more of a I'm plugged in at the moment to play video games, recommend saving for something better with more storage. Unless it's on sale and need something immediately

    I bought it mostly to play world of Warcraft and so far it hasn’t disappointed. The fan system is great and it stops it from getting too hot. And processor and graphics card is just want I need. Great price and great deal.

    This is a nice budget gaming laptop. If you are Ok with playing at medium settings or are limited to playing light titles like Fortnite, you may want to consider this machine It is made of plastic, somewhat heavy, but on a tight budget, it does the job

    This gaming laptop is fantastic. It's fast and it runs smoothly with the games I play. It is a big upgrade from my old 7 years outdated laptop. This is my first gaming computer and I am happy I bought a Asus gaming laptop.

    I got this beast today. I just wanna add review about my firs impression. Keyboard W A S D is clear which I really like it. Thin frame design also impressed me. Overall plastic quality is fair. I bought extra 8gb ram for it. When i check system it says 5.64gb available ram. So Maybe GPU using rest. Im also gonna get 240 or 480 SSD, because i know there is slot available for SSD and ram. I got this guy for video rendering. Im gonna update my review as soon as I start to video rendering. But im sure you can't find any other alternative for this price! Btw I got it when it was $519. 599 still not bad.

    I bought this for my dad and it's perfect for him! The bright lights of the laptop, the size of the screen, and how fast it moves made it a great buy for him, and totally worth the price!

    I bought this as a gift for my 20ish son who, like me, is into gaming. I thought I had read the specs well and felt this was comparable to mine which is three years old now but top of the line then. I missed one spec. It has a 250 GB hard drive, solid state. That's it. Mine has a 250 solid state plus a 1 terabyte hard drive. 250 doesn't give one the space to load but one or two contemporary games at a time with games routinely exceeding 100 gigs a pop now. So he uses, at my recommendation, an external hard drive which kind of defeats the purpose of the lap top...

    I’ve purchased several laptops over the past few years. This one was for my 13-year-old as he embarks on a new school year. I like it a lot and so does he. Seems really solid

    Everything works great, just as it was intended to. It performs well and is highly compatible. And for those wondering, Yes you can change the color of the keyboard.

    This laptop is great. It’s well built and with the GTX 1050 graphics card, you can play most games with a decent setting. Got this on sale and was well worth it.

    I had to buy a new win 10 computer.

    It's not a fault of the computer but I'm not a fan of win 10. I wanted something that would grow with me and future updates and have always had Asus products. It's got a lot of nice features and I'm sure eventually I'll adapt to win 10. The problem I had was with the sales desk. I bought a mouse to go with the laptop. The sales person put the store desk use mouse in my bag instead of the one I bought. It was a hassle getting that straightened out because I didn't realize it until I got home. Very frustrating.
