Reviews for the Asus Zephyrus S15 GX502LXS-XS79

Asus ROG Zephyrus S15
Source: PC Mag
The Asus ROG Zephyrus S15 delivers just what folks who buy $3,000 gaming laptops want: sky-high 1080p frame rates in a good-looking package. Indeed, it's one of the handsomest we've seen, almost able to pass for a civilian notebook until you lift the lid and the keyboard light show begins. The missing webcam is an annoyance, and the imminent arrival of newer Nvidia GPUs will diminish its status, but the S15 easily earns a place amid the gaming elite.

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.
