Beautiful Laptop but with a hose of issues
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When I first bought this laptop I loved it, but after using it for seven months for game development with Unreal Engine its starting to show too many faults to ignore. 1. Gets blistering hot even when running idle in unreal engine on an empty scene. Occurs on UE4 and UE5. 2. Y key started sticking and becomes a pain when typing code to have to constantly delete extra registered letters. 3. The sound quality is pretty subpar, even at max volumes it doesn't feel loud enough. 4. To use the full power of the RTX 3070 GPU you need to bypass optimus with a microusb to HDMI/DP cable because there is no MUX switch on this laptop. 5. Again I need to bring up the heat that generates from underneath the keyboard makes playing high demanding games or development work awful and can cause burns. 6. Its not comfortable on your lap, the ridge that is used to prop up the laptop for cooling digs right into your legs making it very uncomfortable for casual use. 7. Asus software constantly bugs out and display incorrect keyboard colors than what is set, delays in changes to use preferences, sometimes requires a full restart when waking from sleep. 8. Today the wifi network adapter has stopped working. Tried multiple solutions to fix the problem but it persists. Currently resetting entire laptop after spending the entire day migrating my work to another computer. Everything else about the laptop is superb. They keyboard responsiveness is nice, the screen is clear and bright, the games play great. But at this price I shouldn't have to deal with all these issues when I have owned the laptop for less than a year.

stay away
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Goes into standby in the middle of a game. I'm an IT person so of course I looked at settings for standby and hibernation. Its none of that - something defective. Looked at system event logs and confirmed it is going by itself, into standby mode - specifically when playing games. Possibly heat releated. Either way - stay away.

A great thin and light gaming laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A great Thin-and-light gaming laptop. It is fast, very powerful, and has a terrific display, It doesn't have a per-key RGB keyboard, but that's hardly a deal breaker. It also doesn't have a webcam, which to me is a good thing. The speakers are very good for a laptop, and the trackpad is great. The keys have decent travel, and the hinge for the display lifting the back of the laptop off the desk slightly to help with air flow is a nice touch. The 3070 graphics so far haven't even broken a sweat playing games at nearly the highest settings. About the only thing I don't care for is one of the ram "sticks" is soldered to the motherboard. I guess that's a small price to pay for having so much power in such a light chassis. Battery life seems pretty good, I did utilize the software to stop charging at 80% to help maximize the battery life span.

great laptop
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing build. This is such a nicely packaged machine. Keyboard is so good. It also runs very quiet and cool while on productivity tasks. One odd thing that annoys me is that - the screen flash once when you plug/unplug the power cord. It's not a big deal but I haven't seen that on other brand laptops.

Great laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great laptop. I got it for a great price and it runs everything I throw at it. It can even mine up to around 55 mh/s. I mine with it on top of a box fan of course. The CPU can get a bit warm so I disabled turbo mode and it runs at a cool average of 60C.

Sleek, powerful, dependable
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop slaps as the younger kids say. I bought this as an upgrade to my old MSI laptop I had. This thing runs games like nobody's business. The thin design, amazing display with vibrant colors, sharpness and fast response time makes this one of the best gaming laptops I've had so far. The only downside is that because it is so thin, which I love, this thing can be a furnace which impacts it's performance a bit and battery life.

Solid laptop
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plays most games at 4k60hz despite the underpowerwd gpu. The most demandimg new game may require 1440p for solid frame rates Extremely protable. Only complaint is the lack of availability and the fact they keep increasing the price. I got mine for 1999.99 in may of 2021.

Best laptop of 2021
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow the beat my expectations! First the screen is amazing best 15 inch screen I've ever seen even better than the oled razor blade. Second performance is off the charts and the heat dissipation is amazing. The only thing I don't like about it is a gray color but you can probably skin it soon

Great laptop, with some quirks
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The laptop itself was amazing, one detractor is no camera. But the real problem was in the software. Somethnig was calling the windows deep sleep API and after docking it via a TB4 dock the system would just reboot. I tried reinstalling several times, working through various bios settings. No luck. which is sad I absolutly loved this laptop. Its dead silent and a performance powerhouse. Only think keeping it from 5 stars was the sleep api issue that I ended up returning it for.

Great top end gaming pc.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love Asus products they have never disappointed me. This laptop has a great sturdy feel to it. The hardware is top of the line and you can't beat the price that they have for it. It runs perfect and i don't have any problems with an overly loud fan or anything else. Another great product!

Excellent Mobile Choice
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best portable solution to PC game. Powerful when plugged in. Excellent picture with the QHD. Expandable for hard drive space. Only drawback is one stick of ram is soldered to the board which means you can only expand one stick, which may mess with dual channel capability.

The super gaming laptop of the year
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Laptop is amazing, I got it as open box, it was in a very good condition, but the sad part for me that it was missing the usb-c adapter which was essential in my case. So i was really disappointed from that. Other than that the laptop is really powerful and is more than i expected.

Pretty Nice
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It sucks that I bought it for full price right before it goes on sale or $300 off. As or as the performance goes, it eels very smooth, every triple A rated games I've thrown at it rendered no visible problems as of now, so I'm very satisfied to say the least.

Simple the Best
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worth every penny so far. Haven't seen any major issue with this PC yet. Plays all my new games with ease Call of Duty VG, Icarus. I bought this PC because my old gaming labtop wouldn't run ICARUS on steam. Now it boots up with no issues. Very very HAPPY

I like the computer
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First laptop wouldn’t turn on or charge, Best Buy processed return and got me a new one quickly and easily. Actual laptop is about what you’d expect, works well gets a bit hot and battery doesn’t last too long but not bad.
