Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the TUF Gaming A16 laptop's strong performance, solid build quality, and satisfactory battery life. Many also appreciate its reasonable price, exceptional speed, sufficient RAM, and great graphics. However, some customers have noted that the laptop can get hot during demanding games and that the fan noise can be loud. Additionally, a few users feel that the storage could be larger, the laptop is a bit heavy, and the screen brightness could be improved.

    We researched a bunch of gaming laptops, and this is the one we thought sounded the best. We're glad with our choice. It does everything it says it will and is everything we wanted. I gave it 3 & 4 stars in some areas, but only because I probably push it to the end of it's limits.

    Powerful, affordable and good looking. I do digital art and wanted something that could do both that and game a little and I am pleasantly surprised!

    I’ve been playing primarily on consoles for long time, so I’m ok not being on the leading edge of performance, but I do value consistency and being able to expect things to work the way they are supposed to. This is my third attempt with an ASUS gaming laptop, between expensive, midrange, and now budget with this one. In my testing the performance was surprisingly good in some cases and surprisingly bad in others. CP2077 was actually playable at 30-40 fps at ultra settings with ray tracing, but then I turned around and tried out Overwatch and somehow couldn’t break 100 fps even in low settings. Leaves me with no idea what to expect with other games. Bluetooth was frequently losing connections. A few times, after walking away for awhile, I came back to find the screen off, completely unresponsive, and fans blowing at 100% needing to power off to recover. I would be using this for work as well, so I can’t have nonsense like that happening to me at random times. If you can get this on sale you might be getting more than your money’s worth depending on what you play (and maybe luck?) but I just don’t have the patience for all the shenanigans anymore. For me, ASUS just isn’t worth the hassle. Going to return this and try one of the domestic brands and hope things go better.

    This is an amazing laptop, my first Windows/Gaming laptop ever. I'm moving over from the MacBook Pro world and its a great choice. I added 64gb of ram and an second 2TB drive. Its working like a charm. I did have BSOD issues and after reinstalling the chipset and graphics driver it seemed to fix the issue. Zero complaints and loving it.

    Great for Gaming, not so Great Hardware

    I bought this Laptop about 6 months ago and already within the first few months the touchpad is unresponsive and I have to use an external mouse to use my computer. The laptop crashes sometimes due to the switching of GPU to APU and vice versa. The screws are all loose and a few have fallen out despite me tightening them (I've never opened/loosened them before). Other than all the hardware problems, I do love this Laptop's ability to run games smoothly at high quality for the price I got it at.

    Needed a gaming laptop since my son had taken over my built pc. I was looking for a solid laptop with good specs and within budget. This is a pretty good laptop. It runs games well like God of War, Manor Lords, and the Sims 4. No issues so far. The screen looks nice for 1080 and the refresh rate is really good. If you are looking for a good gaming laprop on a budget I highly recommend this laptop.

    Excellent laptop for price. Was on sale so had to grab it. The ram and storage need upgrading to use for any good games. Have 32gb ram and 2 2tb ssd installed now. It is as good as any gaming laptop but only have $1000 into it

    Honestly, very solid build of a laptop. Extremely quiet, easy to use and whenever I game on it it's relevantly quiet and could take most AAA games pretty well. I played resident evil 3 remake on it with all settings pretty much makes out and I was getting 150 fps with no fps drop.
