ASUS VX60GT: A sub-US$1,000 15.6-inch multimedia laptop with a Core i7-9750H, GTX 1650 and optional 120 Hz IPS panel

ASUS is bringing another 15.6-inch laptop to market, with the company seemingly pitching it as a multimedia device with specifications to rival the Dell XPS 15 7590. Named the VX60GT, the device measures 359 x 248 x 21.9 mm and weighs 1.9 kg, making it a touch more compact than the ZenBook Pro 15 UX580GE, yet 3 mm thicker.

The VX60GT has a decent selection of ports too, with ASUS including 4x USB, 1x HDMI, RJ-45, and a full-sized SD card reader. Two of its Type-A ports only operate on the slower USB 2.0 standard, but the third Type-A and sole Type-C are both USB 3.1 Gen 1. Sadly, the device only has one SO-DIMM slot, with 4 GB or 8 GB of DDR4-2400 RAM being soldered to the motherboard. Worse still, the device has only a 42 Wh battery, with a 2.5-inch drive bay taking up the space where a larger battery could have gone. All models come with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 GPU though, which has 4 GB of GDDR5 VRAM, while ASUS offers the device with the following options:
