ASUS FX553 in-depth review
A few weeks ago we did a review of the ASUS ROG Strix GL553VE gaming laptop with the GTX 1050 Ti on board. But aside from the pricier GTX 1050 Ti configuration, ASUS is offering a more budget-friendly variant with GTX 1050 and we really hope it's just about the same notebook with just a different GPU on board. That's because we liked the GL553VE with the small exception of the price.What you may have already noticed from the headline, the model we are reviewing isn't named ASUS ROG Strix GL553VD but instead carries the simple name FX553VD. Even so, both laptops are absolutely identical[...]
Pros
- Excellent keyboard
- Better battery life than before
- Bright IPS panel with wide sRGB coverage and high contrast - excellent for gaming and multimedia
- The cooling system keeps the surface extremely cool even during heavy workload
Cons
- Not the best build quality in its price range
- Wobbly touchpad
- The screen uses PWM from 0 to 99% brightness (our Health-Guard profile fixes that)
- High inner temperatures during heavy workload, CPU throttling
