Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX531GX review

 

A 15-inch powerhouse

Powerful ; Slim design ; Great performance ; Innovative cooling

Very expensive ; Screen isn't HDR ; Might be overkill for some

The Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX531GX is a stunning 15-inch gaming laptop that has the svelte design of an ultrabook, but packs powerful gaming components.

Hands on: Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX531 review

 

Two steps forward, one step back

15-inch gaming laptop in a 14-inch shell ; Sturdier overall build quality ; Lightest, thinnest gaming laptop in its class

Graphics max out with Nvidia GTX 1070 Max-Q ; Battery size and capacity hasn’t increased

The Asus ROG Zephyrus S looks to be better built and smaller than its predecessor in every way, but we’re uncertain about the sacrifices it has made to get here.

Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX531 with Nvidia RTX review: A slim gaming machine with ray tracing smarts

 

The pinnacle Asus ROG gaming laptop. The RTX graphics is a joy to use - but limited battery life, noisy fans and a high price are limitations.

Fast boot speeds ; Impressive specs ; Lightweight and stylish design ; Comfortable to use for working or gaming ; Adjustable screen visuals to suit every situation

Gets hot during heavy gaming sessions ; Very noisy fans under load ; Some issues with dropped frame rates ; Incredibly expensive

The Zephyrus S GX531 is the pinnacle of the Asus ROG laptop line-up. It's beautiful and a joy to use – but the battery life means it's barely a portable machine and the asking price is fairly massive too.

Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX531 review: Thin and stylish gaming prowess

 

Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX531 is surely something special – an ultra-thin gaming laptop that wouldn't look out of place in an office.

Fast boot speeds ; Impressive specs ; Lightweight and stylish design ; Comfortable to use working or gaming

Fans can be very noisy ; Gets hot when gaming on your lap ; Graphics driver updates lag behind ; Poor battery life ; Expensive

The Zephyrus S GX531 is the pinnacle of the Asus ROG laptop line-up. It's beautiful and a joy to use – but the battery life means it's barely a portable machine and the asking price is fairly massive too.

Gamescom 2018: Slim is in for Asus' ROG gaming laptops

 

The new Zephyrus S is crazy thin with bezels to match, and the 17-inch Strix Scar series has the skinniest bezels in its class.
