Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 review: Powerful, stylish, and competitively priced

 

Awesome “AniMe Matrix” exterior display ; Good keyboard, big touchpad ; Bright Mini-LED display, strong audio ; Well-rounded performance for the price

No rear-facing ports ; A bit thick, heavy ; Short battery life

Want a laptop with RTX 5080 series inside? Asus’ Strix Scar 16 is a relatively affordable option with solid CPU and GPU performance and nice extras, like a Mini-LED display and a large touchpad.
