Editorial note

The Asus ROG GL552VX is a laptop that stands out for its solid performance, thanks to its Intel® Core™ i5-6300HQ quad-core processor, providing a smooth multitasking experience. Its 15.6-inch Full HD display, with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, ensures an immersive visual experience, although the lack of a numeric keypad may limit efficiency during certain inputs. However, the NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 950M graphics card, while acceptable for gaming, may be a hindrance for users looking to play recent titles with high graphics settings. Additionally, its weight of 2591 g makes it less convenient to carry, especially for those seeking greater mobility. The battery, with a capacity of 3200 mAh, may not be sufficient for prolonged use, particularly during energy-intensive tasks. In terms of connectivity, the laptop offers modern ports like USB 3.2 Gen 2, but the absence of Thunderbolt ports and USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports may restrict connection options. Despite these limitations, the Asus ROG GL552VX presents good value for money, with a generous storage space of 1 TB and a high repairability index, promoting sustainable and responsible use. In summary, the Asus ROG GL552VX is an interesting choice for users looking for a high-performance laptop for multitasking and multimedia applications, while being aware of its limitations in graphics and portability.
