Pros: -This laptop is powerful, I'll give it that, can run pretty much any game that I've thrown at it at fairly good graphical settings. (However, this is expected at the 1000 dollar price point, I got it at 700. bucks)

-I really like the keyboard, very good for a laptop.

Cons: -This laptop honestly feels like a scam. When it came it had a fair amount of bloatware, I had to reinstall a fresh copy of Windows 10 to get things nice and smooth.

-ASUS support is terrible, nothing really more to say, they just plain old don't make things easy.

-Here's one of the real kickers (and what prompted me to write this review.) I bought a new monitor for my setup recently (from newegg) and the success of the whole thing depended on this laptop being able to put out video from it's USB C 3.1 port. But here's the catch, it's not 3.1. Honestly, I think it might not even be 3.0, I think that it's just USB 2.0 or something with the outside changed to look pretty. This was explicitly an outright lie, as the specs mention USB 3.1 when you're looking at it on this website.

Overall Review: -Be careful when buying laptops from Newegg. The fact that this laptop was Newegg exclusive is probably enough to show that something isn't quite right with it.

Pros: Powerful, easily powerful enough to handle gaming on reasonable settings.

Cons: There is some issue with the power button, it's never turned on the first time I pressed it. I sent it in for repair once, and they sent it back without doing anything. I lived with it until it just plain wouldn't power on anymore. Sent in another ticket today, 2 days before the warranty expires. I have low expectations from Asus now, as a diehard fan for many years (only purchase Asus motherboards, monitors, video cards for all of my and my friends/family's builds). I'll have to find a more reliable manufacturer.

Overall Review: I would not recommend this product to other people.

Pros: - Good laptop
- Records games at a good quality and at 60 FPS
- Runs everything I've thrown at it. Older games at max settings 60 FPS | Newer games on Medium-High at 60 FPS

Cons: - Chassis around the keyboard clings to oil
- No media buttons for pausing, skipping, etc. built-in to the laptop keyboard.
- Only three USB ports and one is on the right hand side right where my mouse is when I'm not at my desk. Other two are on the left side, right up front.

Overall Review: - Screen is fine. I don't know why people are complaining. I wear Gunnars, though.

Had a problem with the mouse and touchpad not working, but I sent it into ASUS and they repaired it for free. Took them two months, so I am bringing the rating down to four eggs out of five instead of five out of five. Overall, though, you can not beat a free repair within a year of purchase.

Pros: It worked for 9 months. I expected a little more use out of a laptop that cost $800.

Cons: Product worked well until in April it wouldn't turn on. Was able to get it turned on after hard reset. Next day, same thing. Wouldn't turn on. RMA'd in April. Unit worked for about 2 days, then same problem, won't turn on. RMA'd early May. Worked a couple of days, same problem. Wont turn on. RMA'd 3rd time May 27, 2017. Asus calls June 2 and says they will replace the laptop. I should receive information within 24 to 48 hours. Hear nothing. Have called in twice to find out status. Today I'm told they are waiting on a part to repair the original unit. Still don't have any idea when I will receive a working unit.

Overall Review: I have purchased my last ASUS product.

Pros: Fast start up times, great multitasking. The SSD+HDD combo is great. The fan is whisper quiet even under load. The vents are laid out well, they get plenty of air flow without making your lap hot. I've been able to play Skyrim on ultra settings and there's rarely even a stutter, and I have quite a few mods on it.

Cons: The back light on the keyboard doesn't light up on the lock screen and I can't find any settings to change that. The red on black keys look nice in the light, but you can't see a damn thing when it's dark which makes typing your password incredibly difficult. The WiFi randomly drops, but it hasn't been to bad. I uninstalled the Game First software and that seems to have fixed it.

Overall Review: I've seen a lot of complaints about the screen, and I don't see what the problem is. Then again, my last laptop didn't have an IPS panel so I guess I'm just used to it. Colors seem pretty sharp to me and I find it more than bright enough. Glare can be a bit annoying but I haven't found any situations where it's been absolutely terrible....yet. Overall, I'm very pleased with this system so far, it does everything I need it to and it does it lightning fast.

Pros: I don't know what everybody else is complaining about, this laptop is great. It hasn't crashed on me once, and came perfect right out of the box. I leave it on constantly (which is sort of a bad habit), but no detriments have come from that. Paired with Geforce Experience, this is one of the best gaming laptops I have every come across.

Cons: Heats up fast if you're playing a high-spec game. Get one of the side-coolers, they help immensely.

Pros: Price and specs (on paper), especially since I got another $100 off for black Friday as well as an Asus Game Pad gift.
It seemed too good to be true, and unfortunately that is exactly how it turned out.

Cons: -At first I had video card issues after computer waking up from sleep, I managed to fix that by updating the BIOS.
-Several days later, my computer became highly unstable. Random reboots, BSOD loops, could not run repair, could not run clean install.
-Build quality is super cheap, and the laptop camera and speakers are horrid, the laptop keyboard finish is already coming off and it looks like it has been used for 2+ years, not 2 weeks. I have not experienced a similar keyboard issue with any other laptop or keyboard in the past 20 years.

Overall Review: I called Asus support and they asked me to ship the product to them for troubleshooting. Unfortunately, I am travelling overseas with no scheduled return date, therefore this is not a viable option for me. Will have to try to troubleshoot and fix it on my own even though it's a brand new laptop.

Will most likely never buy Asus again, especially since I know several people who have had extremely back luck with some of their budget laptops. I regret not dishing out a little more and getting an MSI gaming laptop since their support is way better, not to mention their quality is still miles ahead of Asus.

Pros: okay performance, capable of good graphics, rog gaming center is very useful as it makes the computer more versatile, dual hard drives are very nice.

Cons: The PC had an issue and I had to send it in to Asus for repairs withing the first 10 weeks of owning, cannot compete with current gen consoles ps4 and xbox one,

Overall Review: I would not buy this product again. I would look for a computer with more ram. It is ok if you cannot afford the higher ram level.
