ASUS TUF Gaming A15 (FA507, 2023) review – superb battery life and display color accuracy
The last few ASUS TUF Gaming devices that we have reviewed left us with positive impressions. The ASUS TUF Gaming A17 (FA707, 2023) has good cooling potential and long battery life and the same applies to the ASUS TUF Gaming A15 FA507. We got the successor of the latter in front of us – the ASUS TUF Gaming A15 (FA507, 2023).
The new version has a similar design but the real deal is hidden under the bonnet. You can choose between a refreshed AMD Zen 3+ CPU and a more powerful Zen 4 chip. The mobile NVIDIA RTX 4000 GPUs are part of the package and they come with hefty TGPs which is something mandatory for a gaming laptop.
The device is MIL-STD-810H certified so the laptop can “survive” a harsher than usual usage. Gamers should be happy because all configurations are paired with high refresh rate displays, G-Sync, and NVIDIA Advanced Optimus support.

What’s in the box?
The package contains some manuals and a 240W charger.
Perfect laptop for students with its out of world battery.
Would love more such laptops especially in smaller chassis and non-gaming vibes.
