Asus Gaming Laptop Black Friday 2015

Had to jump on their Black Friday special on this one and I’m glad I did! Although my 2015 Pro was “still good,” this 14 is light years ahead. I’m mainly an office worker paper push but I do some work on the side for my automotive lifestyle brand so I needed to upgrade to run some of the newer creative apps and tools. I’ve only used it for a day but the experience is amazing and I’m sure it’ll be for a long time. Screen is crystal clear and the speakers just blew me away! I also want to give B&H some props because their customer service and packaging/shipping is awesome, even for me out here all the way in Guam. Thank you!

I bought this to add to the laptop I also bought from B&H. I did get it on a Black Friday Deal so...killer price. Sequential Reads up to 7400 MB/s Sequential Writes up to 7000 MB/s For how much? Yes...yes, I would like one. Well packaged. Shipped fast. Fit like a glove. Fast. No complaints.

My mid-2015 MBP died and it was time for a replacement. Overall I am very pleased with this new rendition of the MBP but I am particularly impressed with the stereo/audio sound that comes out of this thing. Instruments and voices are placed well to the right and left of the laptop itself, with high levels of definition and decent bass. That's not the reason I bought it but I am very amazed nonetheless. This space black version is reminiscent of my black polycarbonate Mac laptop of 15 years ago, but this one shows the several generations of improvements since..

I bought a Lenovo Black Friday laptop last year just to use for non development stuff. It worked okay, but it was always having device interrupts. I put in 32GB of RAM and replaced the hard drive with an SSD and now it runs great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Picked this up on Black Friday to use with my work laptop. Works awesome!!! Connected with DisplayPort (had to buy a cable which was cheap.) sorry I didn’t buy sooner. Excellent for mammoth spreadsheets and people like me who open a dozen browser tabs (or more) everyday. Highly recommend!!!

I am learning to enjoy my ASUS 15.6 Vivobook. It is a replacement for my nearly 14 year old laptop that has seen better days. I am on a limited budget, but I didn't want mediocre specs that would be outdated in 6 months. I do mainly internet browsing, some productivity work (word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, etc.), some low intensity gaming, and on occasion some video editing for my socials. Bottom line - You should probably get one while qtys and pricing are good. Pros - It has the specs I wanted (i9 CPU, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) at a great price. More than enough computing power for gaming, casual internet browsing, and the occasional homework/essay. It included FREE 2-Day Shipping - I am on the West Coast. Screen colors are vibrant, keyboard is keyboard-y with backlit keys. The laptop itself is not the lightest out there, but is hardly the boat anchor ROG ASUS I still own that is on its last legs. It's offered thru a reputable dealer. Cons (ish) - Only 1920x1080 resolution and no touchscreen. I haven't really encountered any other negatives so far. It's been a while since I purchased MY own laptop. To be transparent, I have helped recommend and even purchased several laptops over the years for my family and friends. My previous-current laptop is a still-running ASUS G51J (i7 CPU 1st Gen, 6GB RAM, 500GB 2.5 HDD) - battery doesn't charge, but still works plugged in. I purchased it from B&H also circa 2010. Being a frugal tinkerer myself, but wanting the best value for my budget, I researched and compared several buying sources including big box stores, national (U.S.) retail chains and even Amazon, but I still chose B&H. Even though I am on the West Coast, I still found value in the products they offer as well as the service and buying experience. Did I mention FREE 2-Day shipping from the East Coast (NY). Hope this review helps.

Just got this the other day. Have been waiting months for this! Works with my Asus gaming laptop, going thunderbolt to firewire adapter to my Presonus Firestudio.

The case it's self is made just like any other Pelican. The padding is awesome and the space is more than enough for me to use with my laptop. I have a large ASUS 15.6 gaming laptop and it is enough to fit the computer, mouse and charger without it wiggling around. I also use this for my transporting my pistol sense I didn't cut up the block of foam for the ASUS. On the downside the Tan color is a lot lighter than I thought it was going to be, which is a very minor complaint.

The Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 is a top-of-the-line gaming laptop that boasts both excellent performance and striking aesthetics. With a powerful 14th Gen Intel Core processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 GPU, it can handle even the most demanding games with ease. Additionally, the display delivers vivid visuals and a smooth refresh rate. Although not my favorite feature, the dazzling RGB lighting adds a touch of personality. While on the heavier side, the overall build quality is impressive. Although still not quite on par with the Zephyrus G16 build quality, the Scar 16 more than makes up for its build quality with approximately 20% more performance over the G16 and the ability to further upgrade the RAM for even more performance. If you're looking for a gaming laptop that offers both style and substance, the Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 is a great option for a portable desktop replacement.

I brought this since my Asus Gaming laptop only had a 1/2TB SSD. Easy to install and fast read/write times. Highly Recommend.
