Asus ROG Zephyrus M15 (GU502LW) Review

 

Sleek, lightweight design ; Better-than-60fps performance in AAA games ; Potent enough to take advantage of its 240Hz display in competitive multiplayer titles ; 1TB SSD in test model ; Solid port selection ; Long battery life

No webcam ; Key backlighting is only single-zone

Boasting a trim design, high-end performance across a variety of games, and useful extra features, the Asus ROG Zephyrus M15 is an appealing 15-inch gaming laptop with few weak points at a fair price.

KeySmart Pro review: Star Trek inspired key ring tracker

 

Our KeySmart Pro review takes a look at a Star Trek-themed compact key chain that not only tracks your keys but also includes a bottle opener and flashlight.

Fairly compact design ; Holds up to 14 keys ; Includes Tile tracking ; Can find phone from KeySmart Pro ; Up to 45 day battery life

Design is nice but our sample didn't show Picard's head or face ; Pairing was a bit tricky ; Micro-USB charging ; Pricier due to branding

Asus ROG Zephyrus M GU502GU Review

 

Asus's ROG Zephyrus-series gaming laptops are meant to be powerful machines that look more stylish and are more portable than what you'd expect of regular gaming laptops. The Asus ROG Zephyrus M GU502GU, that's part of the refreshed 2019 lineup, is one...

ASUS ROG Zephyrus M GM501GS laptop review: Premium build, awkward design

 

It's a good device, but it doesn't manage to walk the fine line between portability and performance.

Great build quality ; Exceptional display

Price ; Value for money ; Bulky

The Zephyrus M is an odd device. It’s powerful but not as powerful as its bulkier counterparts. It’s slim, but, you can get similar specs, and performance, in a slimmer form factor.

Asus ROG Zephyrus M15 (GU502) Review: Solid, but Outshined by AMD

 

An understated design with high temps

Decent gaming performance for the price ; Attractive understated design ; Resists fingerprints and smudges well

Slightly smaller AMD-based G14 performs better and gets better battery life ; No webcam ; Single-zone RGB keyboard

Asus’ ROG Zephyrus M15 is a mostly pleasing mainstream gaming laptop. But high temps and better performance from Asus’ own 14-inch AMD-powered G14 make this model M tough to recommend.

Supremely comfortable keyboard ; Impressive overall performance ; Lightweight construction

Pitiably low battery life ; Distractingly noisy cooling fans ; Underwhelming speaker quality

The Asus ROG Zephyrus M GU502 offers fine performance using Intel's latest 9th Gen chip, a comfortable keyboard, and a lightweight construction along with quite a bit of heat and noise. You can't go wrong with it.
