Asus ROG Strix G15 review: The gaming laptop that glows

The ROG Strix G15's glowing footprint makes it stands out, as does its affordable 144Hz refresh rate. Is this the budget gaming laptop to buy?

Solid gaming performance ; RGB lighting is distinctive ; High refresh rate ; Good thermals

Thick and clunky ; No webcam or secure login

Asus ROG Strix G15 (G512LI) review

The Asus ROG Strix G15 is strong, but a dismal display sucks the life out of it

Strong performance and graphics ; Sleek, punk design ; Punchy keyboard

Dismal display ; Below-average battery life ; Hollow audio

The Asus ROG Strix G15 (G512LI) presents a sleek body and a punchy keyboard, but hollow audio and a dismal display weigh it down.

Asus ROG Strix G15 review (2022 G513RW - AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX, RTX 3070Ti)

The ROG Strix G15/G17 series is Asus's mid-range lineup of performance and gaming laptops, pretty much their best-value mix of features, performance, and

fair design and solid build quality ; good inputs and IO ; punchy and fast QHD 240 Hz screen ; more powerful than the 2021 generation, but mostly on the GPU side ; versatile Manual profile in Armory Crate ; 90W battery and good runtimes ; punchy audio...

some quirks affecting everyday ergonomics, but improvements over the Scars ; no Thunderbolt/USB 4, card-reader, camera or biometrics ; high CPU and GPU temperatures with games & demanding loads (can be tweaked in Manual mode)

Asus ROG Strix G512LI Laptop Review

The Asus ROG Strix G512LI struggles to stand out from the crowd.

Distinctive design ; Good connectivity ; Enjoyable day-to-day use

Performance doesn't stand out ; Display is lacking ; No Nvidia G-Sync

In fairness to Asus, most of these problems are not exclusive to the ROG Strix G512LI. The budget gaming laptop market is in an awkward place because Nvidia still hasn’t released a replacement for the aging GTX 16-series GPUs. There’s a huge gap...

Asus ROG Strix G15 Review: Clean Aesthetics And Efficient Performance Overshadow Its Shortcomings

Here is the full review of the Asus ROG Strix G15, the latest colorful gaming laptop from Asus powered by 10th Gen Intel Core processor and NVIDIA RTX 2060 GPU.
