There are two types of people when it comes to picking out a new laptop. Those that want a basic everyday laptop and those that want a gaming rig that can give them a great gaming experience while also staying mobile. The Asus ROG Strix Hero GL503GEES73 easily fits into the second category and is packed with hardware that gamers will love. Below we will review some of the benefits and downsides this model has to offer.
Specs

Benefits
– The powerful combination of an Intel Core i7 processor and 16 GB of memory gives this laptop the performance it needs to handle the latest gaming titles
– Having a powerful processor and plenty of memory is one thing but you can’t game without a high end graphics card and this Asus has you covered here as well with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050Ti
– Plenty of storage space is included along with fast performing drives as it has both a 1 TB SSHD drive along with a fast 128 GB SSD
– For gaming laptops this model stacks up quite well when it comes to mobility with a total weight of just 5.7 pounds
Downsides
– If you want high end gaming performance in a compact laptop model you have to expect to spend a lot and this Asus model is no different. With a price tag well over $1000 it isn’t easy on the wallet
– Some gamers prefer a larger display than the standard 15.6 inch screen that is included on this model
Verdict
If you want all the hardware required to have a great gaming experience without the bulk of a 17.3 inch model the Asus ROG Strix Hero GL503GEES73 looks to be a great choice.
