Reviews for the Asus TUF Gaming F15 FX506HM-HN004T
Source: Laptop Media Archive.org version
At the end of the day, the ASUS TUF F15 (FX506, 2021) is a good device. Depending on how much money you’re willing to spend on a gaming machine, you can have it as a modest laptop with Core i5-11260H and GeForce RTX 3050 or it could be a decent notebook with Intel Core i9-11900H/Core i7-11800H and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060. As we said earlier, we like the fact that the device design isn’t too intrusive and it doesn’t scream in front of your face “I am a gaming machine”. Maybe you can use it in the park without drawing too much unwanted attention.

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.
