Excellent Laptop. It's well worth the money. Great for gaming, office work and Adobe editing from my experience. The options for enhancing performance and battery life are incredibly useful. The fingerprint scanner works very well everytime. Picture quality is very clear, even though it's not 4k. Not to excessive on bloatware. Windows 11 so far has worked very well, with all I've done and excellent.

This is an overall good laptop with a decent screen. It comes with 3050 ti which can play most games with average settings. However, it occasionally makes a loud fan noise when playing any video or using multiple chrome tabs. The fan noise is more audible than any 2021 Zephyrus laptop when gaming.

I have a terrible, terrible habit of buying a new laptop right after Microsoft releases a new O.S. At least the Windows 7 laptops I bought worked fine. Windows 11 works okay on this laptop at least.
The screen looks nice and the Core i7-11800h performs well. From what I've seen in benchmarks I've run, the 3050ti is about on par with the old desktop GTX 980 or maybe the 6gb GTX 1060. The CPU benchmarks are higher than normal because Asus thinks its okay to ignore the PL2 and PL1 limits set for the 11800h.
1. This laptop overheats if I push it hard enough. It gets hot after prolonged gaming.... and it's artifacted while running folding at home.... with the fans turned up to the max.
2. The lack of a numberpad blows.
3. One module of RAM in this system is soldered to the board, while the other is removable. So this laptop can take 48gb of RAM at the most. The worst part is... if I upgrade the RAM then it puts the RAM in Flex-Mode.... so the first 16gb will run in dual-channel while the additional RAM would run in Single-Channel. If you don't believe me then go look up what Flex-Mode is and what Flex-Mode does.
4. I tried to sidegrade the O.S. to Windows 10 but it seemed kinda clunky, so I went back to Windows 11.
5. I'm not sure if this is a flaw with Tiger Lake, but the 980 Pro I dropped in this laptop runs slower than the 980 Pro in my z690 desktop. Even the Random reads and writes are lower with this laptop.
12900k/z690 Seq Q8T1 speeds: 6754.96MB/s
GU603HE Seq Q8T1 speeds: 5309.23MB/s
6. The worst part is the Touchpad is terrible. I can't find a decent setting that works for it.
7. The sound volume is terrible. The speakers are still too quiet even if I turn them up to 100% and the sound quality is a bit lacking. With some videos, I have to put the speakers up next to my ear.
Later this year I'll probably give this laptop to my daughter and buy a new one with an i7 or Ryzen 7 and a numberpad.

Purchased this for my son to play Fortnite mainly. Runs smooth with no issues. Fan is a little noisy but he wears a headset when playing games so that's not an issue.
This is the second ASUS ROG gaming computer our family owns. Both run great and we've had no issues whatsoever.

Pros..fast/nice screen size
Cons..Battery life is only ~3-4 hours at only about 50% use.
Can't adjust screen gama/contract always looks kinda washed out
Came iwith windows 10...can upgrade to 11. so, I did to see what 11 was like...don't like 11..do can roll back..did roll back. next day while running on 10 got message to restart computer for updates. When it came back up it was 11.
Many of the setting I'm come accustomed to in 7 & some in 10 are gone...gotta upgrade to 11 pro.
Navigating settings is a nite mare..not like 10 and definitely not like prior ops
Touch pad is way tooooo BIG..when just typing your constantly touch the pad.

My first laptop in 4 years and my first "gaming" one. Setup was easy and no big issue with laptop. screen is gorgeous. Fan does run louder than my old HP Envy. I have used ASUS MB and video cards for years so I trust their quality. Stoked to see how Fusion 3D runs on this. Only ping is the 512 SD but there is an extra slot so YEA!

Not a very techie person, but so far I am loving it. I play games casually like LOL and The Sims and it works pretty well on the highest setting. It's just the fan that makes so much noise. I also use it for work and I have no problems with it. Smooth and fast.

This thing is a beast for being on the lower end of gaming pc's. Only complaint is battery life is just over 2hrs when not plugged in and when plugged in the fan can get a bit loud while the battery is charging.
