Asus ROG STRIX GL553

 

Asus ROG STRIX GL553 review: This GTX 1050 laptop is the best we've seen so far, and comes in at under £900

Good performance ; Attractive design ; Quality screen

Mediocre battery life ; A little noisy ; So-so build quality

A great all-rounder of a gaming laptop.

Asus ROG Strix GL553VD-DS71 review

 

The Strix features an excellent display, rich stereo sound, and a handful of bizarre eccentricities.

Asus ROG Strix GL553VD (7700HQ, FHD, GTX 1050) Laptop Review

 

Pricey budget gamer. Budget gaming notebooks are becoming increasingly popular thanks to GPUs like the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050, and Asus has decided to throw their hat into the budget ring with the GL553VD. The notebook packs modest hardware into a...

excellent, tactile keyboard ; RGB blacklighting options ; solid and sturdy chassis ; good thermal design ; bright and color accurate matte IPS display ; easy maintenance ; easily upgradeable

expensive for its specs ; middling battery life ; incredibly slow hard drive speeds ; loud, annoying fan ; poor port placement ; mediocre speakers ; disappointing touchpad

The Asus GL553VD is a prince among paupers. While its graphics card is targeted at the budget-conscious, its price is not. The same hardware can be found in the MSI GL62M about $100-150 less. that price can be even lower if users are willing to forgo...

Asus ROG Strix GL553VE laptop review: A well-designed powerhouse

 

The Asus ROG Strix GL553VE is a powerhouse, and a well designed one at that. Here's how it fares in our benchmarks...

I have to admit, this laptop is quite impressive. If you’re looking for a gaming laptop in India, the GL553VE at Rs 1,36,990 is an excellent choice. This laptop is for gamers who care about their gaming experience.

ASUS FX553VD (ROG Strix GL553VD) review – good value with a few hiccups

 

A few weeks ago we did a review of the ASUS ROG Strix GL553VE gaming laptop with the GTX 1050 Ti on board. But aside from the pricier GTX 1050 Ti configuration, ASUS is offering a more budget-frien…

Excellent keyboard;Better battery life than before;Bright IPS panel with wide sRGB coverage and high contrast – excellent for gaming and multimedia;The cooling system keeps the surface extremely cool even during heavy workload

Not the best build quality in its price range;Wobbly touchpad;The screen uses PWM from 0 to 99% brightness (our Health-Guard profile fixes that);High inner temperatures during heavy workload, CPU throttling

Good but with some reservations

 

I am not into gaming at all but wanted a powerful laptop and in most respects it is just what I had hoped for as I do a lot of multitasking, edit photos, videos and music etc. However the screen display is a disappointment - the spec says it has a...

Best gaming laptop for the price

 

I did a lot of searching and this is the best gaming laptop for less than £1000. Mostly because it actually has a decent screen, 91%sRGB colourspace, 280nits brightness. Full review on notebookcheck. All of the other laptops in this price range may...

Asus GL553VD-FY047T

 

RGB Keyboard - Amazing! Very nice design and configured to go straight from the box.

Poor battery life - wish this was better. Played one game of Overwatch and the battery went from 100% to 12%
