Customers recognize the ROG Strix G18 gaming laptop for its excellent overall performance and smooth, fast processor. The cooling system and upgradability are also appreciated, along with the great port selection. However, some customers find the battery life to be inadequate, the fan noise to be loud at full speed, and the weight to be a downside, while others find the keyboard lighting to be somewhat unnecessary.

I love this laptop!
I bought it as a desktop replacement that can play games.
I LOVE the easy expansion ability that doesn't even need a screw driver.
I installed a drive benchmark tool and get 6000MB/s second on both drives and my TB5 external enclosure.
Next upgrade is a TS5plus dock with 10GBE to connect to my 10GBE NAS.

It is super fast, crystal clear picture with tons of storage. I was just going to use it for school, but it has so much room I loaded tons of games on it. It still handles it like they are nothing. I love this computer.

Upgraded from a ROG Zephyrus to the Strix line and I am absolutely in awe of this laptop. Hit 200 FPS playing WoW, I can’t wait to test out other games. A little bit of a learning curve for the settings when you come from a separate line of ASUS.

Amazing computer. This replaced my 11 year old Asus that was just starting to show its age and its just what I needed. Runs all my programs with ease and I can have several running at once with no issues.

Such an excellent gaming laptop. Plenty of power, many easy customizations—such as keyboard lighting and performance setting, and a solid feel with the aluminum chassis and perfectly designed keyboard. Quieter and more powerful than my previous Asus, love it.

Laptop is very nice don’t regret it at all, it’s strong at anything you throw at it, only problem I’m having is the cpu it get very hot like a little bit above normal cpu temps which causes bottle necking sometimes even with a laptop cooling pad. That’s the only reason this is 4 stars

It is an amazing laptop. I have love the Side vents and bottom vents for air intake. I just prefer the one with the Mini LED panel. Phenomenal performance not as bad with overheating because of how they did the ventilation.

This laptop is very powerful and handles many games smoothly with good performance. When combined with a cooling pad, the temperature stays quite cool even during long gaming sessions. Overall, it’s a great choice for both gaming and everyday use.

Whenever I am about to play a game, a nvidis window pops up from right bottom corner, and laptop freezes for 4-5 seconds. Could not find a way to fix it. Honestly this is my first time using ASUS, I did not like that laptop is mostly plastic material. Makes it look like a low budget laptop. Maybe Scar series are better about. So If I had a chance I would buy some other laptop but can’t refund the laptop because I am leaving USA. I hope the warranty will be valid international.

Seems like a pretty powerful rig. There are aome features I miss from my MSI gaming laptops, mostly ease of access stuff. But I maybe just need to get used to it.

Great price for a 2025 state of the art laptop gaming and video editing with expansion multiple Thunderbolt 5 ports. 3 x USB-A 3.2, 2 x USB-C 4. I own a 2025 Alienware 18 area 51, and I like this Asus better!
