    I bought this laptop as a excellent open box when it was on sale for black friday and this laptop is one of the best purchases i have ever made its equivalent to a rtx 4070 laptop and the cheapest you can get one of those for are minimum 1300$ and i would say this is the smoothest experience for a laptop I have ever experienced. It is definitely high mid tear for gaming I would recommend for everyone to get this even for its 1100$ price tag

    Absolutely wonderful machine!!! Quick, does great for gaming and video editing. Yes I get it the reviews said “loud” and “it gets hot” - this is a pretty powerful gaming machine in a small frame - physics are a real thing.

    The build is great. Ability to upgrade ram and add an extra ssd is also great. Runs games at 1080p pretty well but I mostly bought it for personal use which it does really well.

    I picked this up when it was on sale - best purchase ever! Love the sleekness! Super fast and very easy to set up. I wasn't prepared for it already having Windows 11 already installed, so it took some getting used to. Battery life has thoroughly impressed me where I can leave it off the charger (not gaming but just general web surfing/digital art) and it has a charge for around 5-6 hours. I've only played a couple of games on it so far and primarily use it for digital art, but so far I love it!

    Faulty hardware

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    For being “TUF” this laptop certainly is not tough. I’ve had to send it in for physical hardware repairs for a second time now. The hinge, all the screws, the lamination around the screen has fallen apart. Processor runs great. I can play all my games. But the hardware not manufactured appropriately.

    Bought this for my daughter. She carries it all over, and it meets all her needs. She likes Minecraft, some Disney games on Steam, and Roblox (chat/messaged disabled!) Sometimes it doesn't wake from sleep mode, and I help her by doing a hard shut off and booting back up. This is more of a driver/Windows 11 issue - but still keeps it from 5 stars. Specs are fantastic for the price range.

    I need a compact solution to play Black Desert Online and doing stuff. Just swap from a gtx 4060 laptop to 7700s and i think its a gain. The FSR and AFMF technology from AMD is one heck of a deal. I found this renders my game much nicer and faster even they benchmarked mostly the same. I had rx 6700s before but its just a flop, this gpu is much better. Too bad amd gpu laptop is way underwhelming. Laptop is okay sizing, strong design, 2x m.2 nvme. I run 8GB+32GB ram 4800hz and it works just fine. Can’t speak of the screen since i hook up a TV all the time. Very good for the price when they are under 900. Im a happy owner and since gpu tech doesnt advance for like 5 years ill be using it for a long while.

    Very good laptop. Perfect for 1080p 90fps gaming. Just make sure to cap the fps to 90. I've played heavy graphics demanding and heavy cpu demanding games, about 95% of the new games perform very good but. Happy with my purchase. If the fps are not capped some heavy games makes the laptop heatup. Even with the IETS GT600.

    Great laptop. Upgradable. Thin for a gaming laptop. Great keyboard and trackpad. Good port selection with USB4 and RJ45. Performance in games is good including some raytracing titles. Runs Linux including Kali. Virtualization works no problem. For the price I paid hard to fault anything with this unit

    Ive been using this laptop a little over a month almost every evening and im thoroughly satisfied. Only complaint i have is the storage that comes out of the box. The 500gb ssd is fine if you only play light games but after 3 big games your out of storage. So an hdd upgrade is needed but its great other than that. Has great cooling, no weird issues with drivers and holds the performance through and through

    I am keeping this laptop despite this review. I think price per dollar is an extremely good value. Especially since I bought this on sale for 700. Cons: -Sleep issues are still prevalent -Sometimes won't turn out without being plugged in after opening up to install ram/wifi/ssd Pros: -Great gaming performance at a 700 price point -Fans are not loud -Despite reviewers and advertised - I expect a consistent 9 hour battery life from this laptop, which to me is exceptional -Screen is visually pleasing, without going into technical detail. I returned the (now 1600 Asus ROG G16 w/ intel i7 13th gen + 4070) Yes, this laptop has a clearly better screen than the G16. -USB-C 100w charging is great alternative when you're in a pinch and don't want to lug around your 240w charger

    I've been really happy with this laptop thus far. The screen is amazing, the processing is really fast, and I haven't had any freeze ups or issues yet. However, the keyboard drives me nuts. The design is such that if you are laying down you can see the lighting glaring under the keys, which is super distracting. If you turn the light off, you can barely see the keys even in a lit room. Also the battery does not last long even on eco mode. But for what I paid I am still very satisfied.

    I would give 4 stars, but I am giving it three because it was listed as an open box containing all components, however, it was missing the charger and booklets. The laptop itself is good for light gaming and is deserving of a 4 star rating. But if you plan to do any kind of heavy gaming on it, I recommend switching out the RAM and adding another SSD, as it has two ports to do so. It is still a very good laptop for light gaming and doing school/company work without the upgrades.

    Extreme performance for the $$$. If you can grab this during the sale, i would! Being an intel nvidia fan, i wantes to try this out. And im surprised! Runs better than a 4060 comparable, and much much better than a 4050 which seems to be all in this price range. Screen is really nice, deep dark colors. Took all updates and installs nicely. Love my new amd rig!

    Son is very happy with this purchase. He previously had a different gaming laptop that died and figured cheaper in the log run to replace than try to fix it after getting a few quotes. For the price and quality of this new laptop, he is extremely pleased with the laptop overall. He likes the graphics, its smooth and the screen display looks good. The only thing he said is when playing some games the fans are loud but he said that's expected also.

    This is the 2nd ASUS - TUF Gaming A16 laptop I have purchased. The first was November of 2023 and my wife liked it so much, that when I needed to replace mine I bought a 2nd one. Speed and graphics are great, so far no complaints and for under $800 it could not be passed up.
