ASUS ROG Strix GL553VE-DM292T 15.6-Inch Gaming Laptop - (Black) (Intel i7-7700HQ Processor, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD + 128GB SSD, Full RGB Keyboard, Nvidia GTX 1050Ti 4GB Dedicated Graphics, Windows 10)

I wanted a laptop that would be capable of my everyday needs but also for my casual gaming and audio mixing. This laptop has been fantastic for me. Well priced, it feels well built and has no problem quickly swapping from one task to another. It feels good to use, with a responsive and well thought out keyboard which you can customise with lighting. Aesthetically, it looks good too, with a brushed metal look and the backlit orange to contrast this in places. It has no problem running my casual games such as planet coaster either and the inbuilt ROG gaming centre allows you to customise certain aspects of your laptop for gaming. The only point to note is that the battery life isn't great. It will last several hours on a full battery but this soon drains as soon as you start to game. Not too much of a problem though as there are plus sockets everywhere and I only game at home! Well worth it if you want a powerful laptop that looks and feels great.

Honestly was looking for a mid ranged laptop so that I can do some light gaming on when I'm on the go. The amount of spec this thing has for the price in my opinion is amazing and I'm glad I waited to buy this. Whilst the screen and the keyboard feel/look amazing and the overall quality of the laptop is amazing. I feel as if they could've done a better job with the cooling fan, if you use the tiniest app or Internet the fan goes 100% and creates such unnecessary noise. I've also noticed that it will bottleneck the gpu so that it can keep the system cool.So to sum up the laptop, it has some v v v good points and for me it's perfect as I'm on the go, if this is your first foray into the laptop world with the intention of gaming there are better and more expensive models that will properly suit your needs. So if I had to put a score on this I'd give it a solid 7/10.

this is not a bad computer and represents very good value for money. The only downside is that the fan is a bit noisy - but better that than a melted motherboard. The on swtich seems to need holding onto for a couple of seconds to start the box up - and from a quality pov there is a loose screw inside. When a I get a spare hour I will take it to bits.There is to much bloat ware of course but this seems to be unavoidable

Really good Laptop, he’s never been preinstalled and it works perfect i have it since 2018. Playing video games most of the time on it. But its not quite good for movies etc, thats why it is gaming laptop. Really good for the price I bought it

Horrible bloatware and poor install quality (powershell errors, driver bluescreens) culminating in no one taking responsibility and me having to pay out of my own pocket for a clean windows 10 install. If you have a problem complain right away or they won't help, no sense fixing their mistakes.In addition to this, the slow hdd causes massive lock up in many old games and a few modern ones leaving you only the option of throwing more money after bad on an SSD/sshd or installing 1 to 2 games at a time to the tiny SSD They changed the price so said I could not be eligible for a replacement as it is no longer the same item, consequently my refund would be too low to buy a replacement had I accepted. Amazon greed.This product is not fit for purpose and anyone rating above 1-2 stars is not versed in what this "should" do.

Laptop performance is as expected from the components but I have a few gripes that really spoil this product. Firstly, the build quality feels quite poor with the plastic feeling especially cheap and lots of flex in the keyboard. Secondly, the fans are obnoxiously loud even under little to no load on the CPU or GPU - don't purchase if you plan to use this in an environment that requires a little silence like a library or lecture theater. Finally, the screen developed a dead pixel after a week and had to be returned, the screen was also very poor quality due to the TN panel.

Excellent laptop for the price. Able to play the most recent games on high to ultra graphics usually, if you don't mind the fans spinning at max the whole time. Probably worth wearing headphones while playing games.For general use the laptop is completely silent and the quality of the speakers is fantastic. The keyboard feels really nice, it's not mechanical but they have a good push resistance.It is quite a heavy laptop but I don't really carry it around with me.

This is first gaming laptop I have bought and, initially, has exceeded all my expectations. I am only just tapping into the resources available to me so I think that it would be constructive to comment more fully after I have used it for several weeks. So far, the look is very impressive, the QWERTY keyboard is easy to use and the power available brilliant.
