One of the first laptops available with the latest Nvidia RTX graphics cards. Incredibly slim and light for a 17-inch gaming laptop. Clever volume scroll wheel and new per-key RGB lighting
The touchpad is awkwardly shifted off to the right side. When gaming, the system gets hot and the fans get loud. The vented rear panel may not appeal to everyone
Asus fits a larger screen and the newest GPU on the block into the slim Zephyrus GX 701, but at the cost of battery life and ergonomics...
Not enough ports, Unconventional trackpad, Mediocre battery life
If you can handle the larger size, limited ports, unconventional trackpad and iffy battery life found here, you can play pretty much anything on the ROG Zephyrus GX701...

The ASUS Zephyrus S GX701 isn't a super complex laptop to wrap your mind around - even if it is an incredibly powerful one. It's less a reinvention of what ASUS have done before, and more of an extension. All the same, the familiar heights it reaches are...

The initial impressions of the Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX701GX paint me extremely impressed with the design, performance, and the overall package. The fact that the company has listened to the gaming community it evident in bold decisions like the removal of...
Powerful machine in a slim chassis, Per-key RGB keyboard is an eye-candy, High-speed, large storage (1TB PCIe G3X4 NVMe SSD), 24GB DDR4 RAM (16GB + 8GB soldered), Fan noise not as loud as 15-inch variant, 17.3" display with 144Hz refresh rate and G-Sync,
Surprisingly heavy, CPU temperature could be better, Same awkward keyboard placement, No SD card reader and LAN port, Pricey, Fingerprint magnet, Limited storage upgrade options, Average battery life
The ASUS ROG Zephyrus S GX701 gaming laptop is a powerful machine and is a step forward from the 15-inch version released before. While many people would be happy to use it, its asking price will leave people wanting a bit more out of it...

ASUS has again delivered one of the best notebooks that you can buy today. The RTX 2060 GPU is good enough for most games out today and paired with Intel's beefy CPU, the notebook can easily handle a diverse range of games without breaking a sweat.But you...
The ASUS ROG Zephyrus S GX701 is by far, the best gaming laptop that I've ever reviewed. It has a great design, solid build quality, and 144Hz display. It also provides excellent performance especially with games while its thermals are very good to the po...
