Reviews for the Asus TUF FX505GE-BQ153T

80% Asus TUF FX505G review: A gaming laptop packed with power
Source: The Indian Express English Archive.org version
For Rs 1,29,990, the laptop offers solid overall performance. I loved the way it can achieve good frame rates on graphic-heavy games. My biggest issue with any gaming laptop is the poor battery life, and this applies to the FX505G as well.

85% Asus TUF Gaming FX505 review (FX505GE – i7-8750H, GTX 1050 Ti, 144 Hz screen)
Source: Ultrabook Review English Archive.org version
The Asus TUF Gaming FX505 is without a shadow of a doubt one of the best mid-range gaming laptops you'll find in stores in the second part of 2018 and onwards. It's a complete revamp of the TUF FX504 line and improves on important aspects like size, design, keyboard, screen and performance, but is still Asus's entry-level gaming notebook and corners were still cut in order to meet the lower price tag. Read on for the whole story.

15.60":

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.
