ASUS ROG Zephyrus G15 GA502 (2020) in-depth review

For a short period of time, this is the second time that we are reviewing an ASUS Zen 2 laptop with a powerful 8-core Ryzen CPU and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q. The first one was the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 GA401 and we were pretty happy with its performance, build quality, and display. Now, this time we have the 2020 version of the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G15 GA502.Our particular sample is configured with the AMD Ryzen 7 4800HS (with 35W TDP), 16GB RAM (3200 MHz), and NVIDIA RTX 2060 Max-Q. At first sight, it sounds like a decent allrounder that can handle games and heavy workloads thanks to it[...]

Pros

  • The laptop is snappy and it supports Wi-Fi 6
  • 8GB/16GB of soldered memory plus one RAM SODIMM slot supporting 3200 MHz memory in dual-channel and dual NVMe drive support
  • The display is PWM-free above 35% brightness (and the frequency of the flickers is low-enough below that) (LQ156M1JW16)
  • 240Hz refresh rate and quick pixel response times (LQ156M1JW16)
  • 98% sRGB coverage and great color accuracy thanks to our Gaming and Web design profile (LQ156M1JW16)
  • USB Type-C port can be used to charge the laptop or to output a DisplayPort 1.4 signal

Cons

  • Lacks an SD card reader and Thunderbolt support
  • The laptop gets pretty hot and loud during heavy loads (and the CPU freq drops to 2.72 GHz)
  • The keyboard has no NumberPad
