Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX531

The Zephyrus S GX531 is a niche product within an already small niche, and that’s because Asus chose to sacrifice on practicality and portability in order to favor cooling and performance. As a result, this laptop performs better than the other RTX 2080 Max-Q 15-inch gaming ultraportables on the market and keeps the components at slightly lower temperatures, but unless you keep it plugged in and on a desk, you’ll struggle with its ergonomics, shallow keyboard, and rather short battery life. Down below we’ll explain how we reached this conclusion.
