SCREEN: 15.6 ”
RAM: 4GB

When we hear the ASUS Republic of Gaming (ROG) brand, what we can imagine is a high-end laptop with an exorbitant price. As a gamer, this exorbitant price is an obstacle to enjoying games with 1080p resolution without interfering with the experience of playing the game. But don’t be sad because there is good news from ASUS where recently ASUS has started marketing ROG laptops in the entry-level class under 15 million. This time we will discuss one of the entry-level class ASUS ROG laptop series that attracts the attention of gamers, namely the ASUS ROG GL552V-W i7 6700HQ which is priced at 13 million.

Reviews, Specifications and Prices for the ASUS ROG GL552VW

Hardware

If you are familiar with the ASUS ROG series, you must be familiar with the brother of the GL552VW series, the G752 series. When compared to the slightly more expensive G752 series, in user experience this laptop is almost the same as the G752. The difference is that this laptop is a little smaller, cheaper and the G752 series feels more robust. But for prices below 15 million the design of this laptop body is classified according to the price because it needs to be remembered for a sturdy body like the G752 series, the average ASUS laptop is priced at 30 million and above. Like other ASUS ROG body designs, the ASUS ROG GL552VW body is made of dark plastic with metal in the middle of the back of the screen where the ROG logo is elegantly displayed. Dimensionsally, this laptop with a size of 384 x 256 x 35 mm and weighs 2.59 kg, is 1 mm thicker and 190 grams heavier when compared to its competitors, namely the Acer Aspire V15 Nitro Black Edition. Maybe for some people the difference in body strength, thickness and weight of the laptop is not a problem, but it needs to be considered again if the laptop will be used to move because even though there are only slight differences in the dimensions and sturdiness of the body, this can be a fairly troublesome problem.

When viewed as a whole, the body of the ASUS ROG GL552VW looks elegant and complete with 2 USB 3.0 ports, HDMI and USB 3.1 type C on the left side of the laptop and USB 2.0, audio jack and DVD drive on the right side. With the various types of USB ports found on this laptop, we don’t need to worry about connectivity problems with this laptop with new port models such as USB 3.1 type C or older models such as USB 2.0. In addition, with the DVD Drive, it will make it easier for gamers if they want to install games from DVDs that are purchased or rented. Coupled with an SD card reader and HDMI, the connectivity features on this laptop are complete.

Screen

Unlike other V-series laptops that have glossy screens, for this VW-series laptop ASUS decided to coat the 15.6 ”screen on this laptop with a matte finish. For those of you who are not familiar with the difference between glossy and matte screens, it might be understandable because both screens use LED technology. The difference between the two types of screens lies in the screen layer. With a matte coating, this laptop screen can reduce light reflections that occur when in a bright room or even outdoors. But of course, when compared to the bright colors of the glossy screen, the matte screen displays dark colors, especially indoors. So this laptop is perfect for those of you who often use laptops in bright rooms or outdoors.

Performance

The advantage of this laptop is that there are 2 types of storage media, namely 128GB SSD which is perfect for OS installation, games or other applications and 1TB HDD which is more suitable for storing document, music or video files. Surely you don’t want to waste high-speed SSD memory just to store document, music or video files, right? With these 2 types of storage media, it can be said that this laptop is a laptop with very flexible usage. This laptop is not only devoted to gaming but if you want to use it for your daily busyness, at a price of 13 million this laptop is perfect for your needs.

Another added value of this laptop lies in its CPU, namely the Intel Core i7-6700HQ which normally you can only find on top-end laptops at a price of 2 times the price of this laptop. This processor has a quad-core architecture with a clock speed of 2.6 GHz which is designed for power laptops. But unfortunately, with this series of processors, the laptop battery will be quite wasteful compared to laptop batteries in general. With standard use, this laptop battery can last between 4-5 hours which is the standard for gaming laptops with prices below 15 million. However, if it is used for gaming, the power consumption of this laptop is very large and will probably only last between 90 minutes to 2 hours. But this is a little relieved by a soft-sounding laptop fan. So that when you use this laptop for gaming there will be no annoying fan noise.

With all the pluses, to keep the price under 15 million, of course, there are parts that are lacking in this laptop compared to top-end laptops. One of the most visible is the graphics card on this laptop, namely the nVidia GeForce GTX960M 2GB DDR5. With this graphics card series, maybe you can play almost all games with 1080p settings, but for the latest games with all the maximum settings, the display frame speed on this laptop will average around 28 fps and maybe one day it will be. drops to the 20-21 fps range even if only momentarily. This is a natural thing considering the relatively cheap price of this laptop. In addition, competitors such as the MSI GE72 2QD-037UK and CyberPower Fangbook SX6-300 also have the same shortcomings so that the graphics quality on this laptop is understandable. But if the game setting is changed to medium (mid) 720p, this laptop can provide a comfortable experience for gamers for all games. So it is recommended for gamers to experiment with game display settings when using this laptop to get an optimal experience.

Another thing that this laptop lacks is in terms of sound. The speakers on this laptop are not speakers specifically for gaming with loud and clear sound. The speakers on this laptop are SonicMaster speakers which are standard laptop speakers with a slightly weak sound when compared to other gaming laptops. Of course, this deficiency can be reduced by using a gaming headset, but of course you have to spend an extra budget to buy it.

Overall this low-entry laptop has medium performance when used for gaming needs. Processors that are devoted to laptop power are of added value, but in terms of graphics, this laptop is ordinary when compared to other laptops with similar prices. If you are a heavy gamer who doesn’t have much budget to buy a top-end laptop, this laptop can be an alternative for your needs.

Accept The Things You Cannot Change: We resist things we don’t like, and often expend a tremendous amount of energy on this resistance. Whilst this can be good, and has resulted in tremendous advances through history, we should work to understand those things we cannot change, and then move on. Rather use the saved energy on usomething more worthwhile and productive. This is not to say that you should complacently accept anything. If you truly desire change, you should work towards that change; but spending time worrying about something without actively working to change it is unproductive and damaging to your wellbeing.
