When was the g15 released

Tablets Smartwatches Speakers Drones. Accessories Buying Guides How-tos Deals. Health Energy Environment. YouTube Instagram Adobe. Kickstarter Tumblr Art Club. Film TV Games. Fortnite Game of Thrones Books. Comics Music. So if you want something a bit more future-proof, a Ryzen notebook just makes more sense. While mowing down baddies in Destiny 2 , or hopping through several rounds of Overwatch , the G15 looked silky smooth.

And when I was able to take a breath, it was easy to see how fine edges and other details looked a bit clearer than on a p screens. While the Zephyrus G15 is powerful enough to deliver over FPS in 1,p with graphics cranked on both games, what mattered more to me was how well the screen kept up with all of the action. And boy, did it deliver. I felt like I had an extra advantage during frenetic firefights, since the screen was able to easily follow my twitchy mouse movements, and it was also helpful when I needed to slow down and line up a sniper shot.

Having a high refresh speed, and a screen that can automatically synchronize with your current frame rate, is the gaming equivalent of hearing a symphony in perfect harmony. And unless you're an aspiring e-sports player, you'll probably have a tough time even seeing the difference beyond Hz. Even the RTX in our review unit struggled to run Cyberpunk with maxed out ray tracing settings and graphics in 1,p. It chugged along between 40 and 45 FPS, which is playable but not exactly what I'd like to see from such an expensive machine.

When it comes to benchmarks, the Zephyrus G15 outperformed MSI's GS66 in Geekbench 5's multicore score, but otherwise the two laptops were fairly neck-and-neck. The G15 also lasted an impressive eight hours and 50 minutes on our battery test, well below the near hour benchmark of the G14 , but 25 minutes better than the GS Alex Wawro.

Impressively, though, the game was quite playable for much of that time, avoiding stutters and performance issues. The watt charger also juices the G15 decently fast — during very light Chrome use, it got the device up to 60 percent in 37 minutes.

At the end of the day, there are things I can nitpick about this device. In particular, the lack of a webcam is egregious. Folks who are looking for a higher refresh-rate screen may prefer to spend more on a Blade 15 Advanced or a GS But almost everything about this laptop is fantastic. The G15 is superior on battery life, superior on power, superior on weight, and superior on price. Every smart device now requires you to agree to a series of terms and conditions before you can use it — contracts that no one actually reads.
