Honestly, it makes me sad that such a good trackpad is going to be a waste here because most people will connect an external mouse anyway. It is precise, smooth and even supports gestures. The trackpad is big enough than most gaming laptops you would come across. Now trackpad is something that needs to be appreciated here. Even while gaming or writing, I never faced any major issues, but better switches would improve the experience. The keys feel mushy, and they are not as tactile as many would prefer. The keys have a decent amount of spacing and travel, but it is not as good as some of the other gaming machines from Asus. However, you can choose among the different display presets as per your preferences.
But, as said, the panel is quite dull, the colours look washed out, and the details are disappointing as well. The AMD FreeSync Adaptive support works fine in keeping the display fast when needed. No doubt the display is fast, but it is not very bright. You also get an anti-glare coating on the top of it. Further, the panel covers 100% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut and supports AMD’s FreeSync Premium technology. The laptop features a 16:9 15.6-inch WQHD IPS panel with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, 165Hz refresh rate and 3ms response time. Let me run down the display specifications of the ROG G15 AMD Advantage. The ports are located where they should be, making things easy for the folks who connect a lot of accessories to their machines. The keyboard deck is not prone to flex unless you are trying too hard. Overall, the laptop is sturdy, and the hinge nicely holds the display and deck together. The build quality of the ROG G15 AMD Advantage doesn’t feel cheap, but the build quality could have been better, considering it cost Rs 1,50,000. The laptop is nothing less than a light fest- first, every key is lit up with the RGB key beneath it, and then there is an RGB strip at the bottom running around the chassis or, as Asus prefers to call it, wraparound light bar. You get a black and silver armor cap inside the box. The hot-swappable armor cap in red adds up to the gamer aesthetics.
The top of the laptop and the keyboard deck are carved out of aluminium, while the rest is plastic.
As soon as you take the laptop out of the box, you will see a glowing metallic ROG logo on the lid complemented by a tiny AMD logo on the edge near the hinge. However, the thickness is justified considering there are vents on both sides and one more on the back. The laptop measures in at just 25.9mm and weighs 2.5Kgs not exactly a thin and light laptop, but you can easily carry it around in your backpack. The ROG Strix G15 AMD Advantage Edition is your quintessential ROG machine – stylist, flashy and chunky. But is this Asus-AMD collaboration any good? Well, I have been using the ROG Strix G15 AMD Advantage Edition for two weeks now, and here are my thoughts on whether you should jump on this Asus-AMD wagon or not. The ROG Strix G15 AMD Advantage, priced at Rs 1,54,940, sits in the sub-2,00,000 segment where Lenovo, Acer, Dell, and MSI are trying hard to woo customers. As the name implies, the ROG G15 AMD Advantage Edition is an all-AMD machine, which pairs the top-of-the-line Ryzen 9 octa-core 5900HX processor with the newest Radeon RX 6800M mobile GPU. One such laptop is the Asus’ ROG Strix G15 AMD Advantage Edition, which is nothing but a beast. And the plan was simple, to put the best of AMD inside a machine to deliver the best performance possible for gamers anywhere and anytime. Last year, AMD introduced its take on the Intel EVO – the AMD Advantage.
