Decent keyboard and trackpad with Numpad solution
Top specs and solid performance
Upgradeable RAM and SSD
Fair price
The super-slim design of the Asus Zephyrus hides excellent gaming performance and a powerful Nvidia 1080 graphics card. The hidden kickstand vent provides cooling while not interfering with portability
Stunning Max-Q design
Quiet under heavy load
Inclusion of an Nvidia Max-Q GTX 1080 GPU
This second-gen version of the Asus Zephyrus keeps the inventive raised cooling vent
Lowers the price
Adds a new six-core Intel Core i7 CPU
And fixes the poor touchpad placement in the original

The editors didn't like
Moving plate on the bottom feels fragile
No way to turn off the red lights and accents
The keyboard's positioning could be tough to get used to
Runs quite hot
But also fairly quiet
Poor speakers
Short battery life
Due to having a small battery and
The large cooling vent feels flimsy when opened. The display tops out at standard HD resolution
And the misplaced touchpad on the far right side is tough to get used to
Very expensive
Poor battery life
Dark and dull display
The fans still get quite loud
Battery life is short
There's a thick screen bezel around the non-touch display
And there's no built-in Ethernet jack
Which is important for downloading large game files
Body may be a little weak
Likely to be expensive
Slightly esoteric layout
Weak battery
Very poor battery life
Too hot to use as a laptop
Battery life is poor
The keyboard and mouse positions make them awkward to use

Abstract: What does it take to build a gaming laptop that isn't built with the thickness of a Subway sandwich and quiet enough to run Overwatch next to a sleeping baby? Apparently, just NVIDIA's Max-Q technology – the tech company's unique design approach that enab...
At Php179,000 or $3,000, the ASUS ROG Zephyrus GX501 sits in a position wherein form comes first than functionality and not in a vain kind of way. Portability has slowly been eroded by high-end gaming notebooks in favor of performance and as they are tout...
The ASUS Republic of Gamers GX501 established a new gold standard for mobile computing and gaming on a laptop. While it didn't ace all the categories I set up for my review, it proved itself to be a device wealthy of outstanding points and offering. ASUS...
Abstract: The ASUS ROG Zephyrus made a splash in Computex 2017. At just 16.9mm, the Zephyrus is the thinnest GTX 1080-equipped laptop in the world. Barely a month has passed since Computex and the Zephyrus is now available for pre-order in the Philippines.The Zephy...
Abstract: As it turns out, you can have your cake and eat it too. When you have something as thin as ASUS' ROG Zephyrus GX501, and still have it pack an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080, you start to wonder how you ever put up with thick and bulky gaming notebooks of the p...

We're no stranger to thin and light notebooks – we've reviewed our fair share of skinny notebooks in the past, but none of them holds a candle to what's inside the Zephyrus. The notebook measures in at 16.9mm when closed, which is far thinner than Razer's...

Pantalla con poco brillo y calibración de serie mediocre, El procesador alcanza temperaturas altas (98ºC), Pocas facilidades para acceder al interior, Imán para las huellas
Con este ROG Zephyrus ASUS ha hecho un trabajo de ingeniería sorprendente. Es cierto que, como hemos visto, la GTX 1080 MAX-Q se parece más a una GTX 1070 que a una GTX 1080, pero es que portátiles con más grosor y una GTX 1070 no consiguen mantener tan f...

Diseño elegante y ultradelgado, Los 120 Hz y la tecnología GSync aportan una fluidez prodigiosa, Consumo y ruido reducidos para un equipo de estas características
Precio elevado, El teclado y sobre todo el ratón son demasiado originales, Olvídate de jugar sin tenerlo enchufado a la corriente, La pantalla se queda corta si lo usas como equipo de trabajo
Los portátiles destinados al mundo del gaming suelen tener una orientación clara, pero aquí ASUS rompe el molde con un equipo al que no todos los gamers querrán acceder. La razón es obvia: el ASUS ROG Zephyrus sacrifica parte del rendimiento que uno esper...
