Певним чином цей ноутбук показує, як ноутбуки на RTX 5080 повинні працювати з енергопостачанням. Blackwell вимагає багато Ват, але і видає багато FPS, і більш дешеві моделі втрачають продуктивність, якщо це ігнорувати. На щастя, ASUS ROG Strix G16 (2025) G615 це не ігнорує. А компанія тим часом не ігнорує прості і корисні речі. Як от швидкий доступ до SSD та SO-DIMM, Thunderbolt 5, три вентилятора і купа програмних переваг. Загалом, якщо ви готові морально змиритись з повально-космічною вартістю ноутбуків вже на RTX 5080, то ASUS ROG Strix G16 (2025) G615 я сміливо рекомендую!

Priced at Rs. 3,79,990, the Asus ROG Strix SCAR 16 (2025) is every bit the performance powerhouse it promises to be. With an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX and RTX 5080 GPU under the hood, it delivers near desktop-level performance in a portable (albeit heavy) package. The Mini LED display is stunning, the keyboard is a joy to use, and the overall thermal and build design is rock solid. That said, it's not perfect. The use of a Gen4 SSD at this price point feels like a missed opportunity, especially when the competition offers faster Gen5 storage. Battery life is limited, fan profiling could be slightly tweaked, and NVIDIA's Optimus tech could use some more work. Still, that doesn't take away from the fact that this is a seriously capable machine, not just for gaming, but for content creation, multitasking, and everything in between.

The Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 is a solid 16-inch gaming laptop for shoppers looking to snag Nvidia’s mobile RTX 5080. Nvidia’s GPU performs quite well here, only slightly lagging the performance of larger 18-inch systems. It’s a similar story for the Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU, which, though a step down from the 285Hx, is still extremely fast in any multi-core test. Asus’ design is an advantage as well, with an attractive “AniMe Matrix” display across the laptop’s lid and decent build quality. On the downside, the laptop’s battery life wasn’t great despite the inclusion of Nvidia Optimus to switch off the GPU in some situations. I also think the placement of the physical ports, which line the sides of the laptop, is inconvenient. Priced at $3,299.99, the Scar 16’s pricing is mid-pack among its direct competitors, though most land within a couple hundred dollars.

The Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 is the smaller variant of the Scar 18, with similar features, design quirks and specs, but in a more compact and lightweight chassis. It runs at higher internal temperatures as a result, but doesn't sacrifice performance or capabilities in any way. And the RTX 5080 configuration tested here is better value for your money than the RTX 5090 model, although still expensive. But at the end of the day, choosing this over other options in its space will probably come down to the screen, as this is one of the few to offer a modern matte mini LED display and latest-gen specs.

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.

With this weight, a laptop is rather heavier than average. Devices in this range shine more with screen size and performance than with mobility.
