Highlights
Quality
Really easy to upgrade plenty of videos out there on upgrading the tuf gaming laptops.
Bought this for my daughter and works great for on line gaming, haven’t upgraded yet but excited to be able too in the future
Runs any game on 1080p; newer ones are on low quality (as of games released during this review).
It runs any game i throw at it from valorant, all the way up too horizon zero dawn.
Price
This laptop's specs are very nice for the price of $650 us.
This is terrific bang for buck, i added a second stick of 8gb ram as i use it mainly for music production.
What more do you want for a $600 laptop.
It's a great value for the time it was purchased.
Shipping
It was packaged and shipped with much care.
Packaging/appearance
The asus box itself is very cool and well designed, the little compartments to store the charger and the cord.
I love the way it was packaged, the laptop box was put inside of an extra box for extra protection.
Competitiveness
As is usually the case with laptops, battery life is much better in windows than it is in linux.
And now i can play other games, as apple store games or others are harder to play on macs.
