Product Overview

ASUS ROG Zephyrus G15 GA502 is a 15.6-inch ultra-portable gaming laptop powered by up to AMD Ryzen 7 4800HS processor with RTX 2060 graphics.
The AMD Ryzen 7 processor delivers performance close to an Intel Core i9 processor while being more efficient. It allows the Zephyrus G14 to offer high gaming performance in a chassis under 20mm thin. It can be considered the AMD-version of the Zephyrus S15.
With those who wish for even more portability, ASUS also markets the Zephyrus G14, also powered by AMD Ryzen mobile processors.
For serious gaming, ASUS offers the ROG Strix SCAR 15 and SCAR 17. The ROG Zephyrus S15 and S17 are ultra-portable versions of the SCAR-series with minimal compromise, while the ROG Strix G15 and G17 are tuned-down versions of the SCAR-series. The flagship this year is the Zephyrus Duo 15 that comes with dual 4K displays.

External Reviews

Reviewer score 52% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from notebookcheck have found:
There is a healthy selection of integrated ports including RJ-45, HDMI, and USB-C with DisplayPort support. Thunderbolt 3 is not supported and there is no SD card reader. The Intel AX200 comes standard for Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity. There is no integrated webcam which Asus says is due to the very narrow bezels around the display.
Pros
  • 144 Hz panel
  • Good input devices
  • Good battery life
Cons
  • No integrated webcam
  • No Thunderbolt 3
  • No SD card reader
