Reviews for the Asus ROG Strix Scar 15 G533ZW-LN106WS
This year's Asus ROG Strix Scar 15 G533 comes with an improved WQHD 240 Hz panel along with upgrades to Intel Alder Lake Core i9-12900H and a 150 W Nvidia RTX 3070 Ti with a dedicated MUX switch. We find that the Scar 15 is able to check off most boxes that enthusiast gamers look out for. Areas of concern still remain, however, particularly with respect to emissions and power draws.

The 2022 Asus ROG Strix Scar 15 is a versatile performance/gaming full-size laptop and one of the better-value options in its class, as well as a fairly compact and lightweight product for what it is. In our tests, it performed a little faster than the larger 2022 Scar 17, and significantly faster than the previous 2021 generation based on AMD hardware, thanks to the updated hardware and the implementation of a MUX. On the other hand, the components still run hot inside on the stock Turbo mode, especially on the GPU side now, the efficiency of the Intel Alder Lake platform leaves to desire, and there are still some ergonomic quirks that you'll have to accept if you'll decide on one of these.

The niggles I have regarding the Strix Scar 15 mostly involve the lack of a web camera and biometric authentication. The battery life could also be improved a bit considering the sizeable 90Whr cell housed inside. However, apart from that, the ROG Strix Scar is a near-perfect gaming companion at the top end of the market. It certainly lives up to the specifications on the sheet and has the thermal management in place to keep the graphics pouring in any kind of intensive game. Obviously, this is an expensive purchase, but if you are the kind of gamer that just wants the best hardware for the money, then the ROG Strix Scar 15 could be your answer.

The Asus ROG Strix Scar 15 is fast, it’s got a fantastic display, and it has a great keyboard inside a bold, RGB-covered chassis. That said, its rivals often have slimmer, sleeker designs, better connectivity and more screen options. This is a good laptop if you want a bold gaming machine, but other machines are more mature.

First, we’d like to compliment ASUS on choosing right in regards to the processor manufacturer. Intel offers the best CPUs right now, and risking it before seeing real-world results (when ASUS was still on the drawing board with the SCAR 15 for this year), is a bold move. Nevertheless, the company has done enough on its own to provide you with the best gaming experience. First and foremost, you get a 150W graphics card (or a 140W if you get the RTX 3060). If we were in your place, we would at least go for the RTX 3070 Ti, so that you can take full advantage of the higher resolution of the WQHD panel. Other features include Wi-Fi 6E and 2.5G Ethernet connection, both of which ensure a stable and ultra-fast online experience. That is, of course, if your Internet plan provides a fast-enough connection. For what it’s worth, we would recommend this laptop with two out of two hands. The liquid metal thermal compound makes it a king in computational performance, while the TGP of the graphics card is perfectly calculated for a comfortable gaming experience.

The Strix Scar 15 is a great gaming laptop but it’s hard to recommend it over the Scar Strix 17. For an extra £150 you get double the RAM, a larger display, a slightly better speaker system and an expanded keyboard. Granted, the Strix Scar 17 is 600g heavier and 40mm wider and gets very hot in places but I’m struggling to think of a situation in which those extra grammes and millimetres will make much difference. The extra 16GB of RAM and 1.7inches of screen diagonal are both well worth having, too. If your heart is set on a 15.6inch gaming machine then the Strix 15 is undoubtedly a satisfying ownership proposition but if you can accommodate the extra size and weight the Strix 17 is the more rounded package.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
