Reviews for the Asus Zephyrus S15 GX502LXS-HF038T

85% ASUS ROG Zephyrus S15 Review: A great gaming notebook with a hefty price tag
Source: Hardware Zone English
For my money, and despite some very minor nit-picks from me, such as a FHD instead of a QHD display, the Zephyrus S15 GX502 is quite possibly the most balanced gaming notebook in the market right now – in terms of power, form factor and build quality. You could find one that fills any two qualities, but rarely do you find one that checks all three.

Asus ROG Zephyrus S15 Review: The Best Portable Gaming Laptop Of 2020, So Far
Source: Tech2.in.com English Archive.org version
It’s slim, it’s light, and it’s powerful. The display is fast and accurate, the speakers get the job done, and its cooling system is effective, while not going out of its way to deafen you. It also delivers on the performance front, has great battery life when you’re not gaming, charges via USB-C and proprietary power, looks amazing, and has all the ports you’ll ever need.

Source: Ultrabook Review English Archive.org version
The 2020 Asus Zephyrus S15 GX502 refines on the 2019 Zephyrus, which was already a solid performance ultraportable. The updated hardware allows it to perform roughly 20-25% faster in multi-core CPU loads and 10% faster in games, with slightly improved noise levels and thermals, and Asus also implemented a 300 Hz screen with dual Optimus/GSyns modes and added Thunderbolt 3 support. At the same time, though, the top-tier 2020 Zephyrus S15 is a significantly more expensive product now, and still lacks the big battery and some of the features available with the competition.

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.
