Asus ROG Zephyrus S - big on power, low on weight

One of the biggest problems - both literally and figuratively - with gaming laptops is the weight of them. Keeping the pounds off is imperative, but not everyone is able to deliver a slim and powerful machine.

However, with the ROG Zephyrus S, Asus takes the challenge head on and serves up a featherweight champion.

“Smaller. Lighter. Faster” is the tagline and it couldn’t be more apt. It weighs less than 2kg, but still has the power inside to keep you ahead of the competition in the likes of Fortnite, FIFA 20 and more.

The digital guts of the good-looking laptop are equally impressive. A cutting-edge Intel Core i7-9750H processor is paired with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 graphics card for a super-smooth gaming experience. It even comes equipped to deal with virtual reality experiences too.

As is standard with Asus ROG products, the keyboard is ultra-responsive. It looks pretty too with the lighting and aura sync that glows in harmony with the on-screen action.

Sure, it’s not quite the next-level gaming rig of ROG’s flagship Strix G531GU but this slimmer version is still superb.

With the holiday season coming up, it’s the ideal present to buy for that budding esports pro in the family. Or maybe just for yourself.

Asus Zephyrus S GX502 is out now at all good stockists priced at RRP AED 9,999.
