Both technologies are mutually exclusive
vivid colors and good contrast
its power
thin profile
and versatility

The touchpad glides smoothly and felt accurate and responsive
The laptop is both sleek and sturdy
lower times are better here
well-placed
responsive with RGB backlighting
sleek magnesium chassis
looks and feels incredibly premium
it was comfortable to use in my lap

professional single phase power quality and energy measurement digital multimeter
The SSD provides very good transfer rates
it already shows a good color reproduction out of the box

external webcam connected to the Zephyrus via an USB cable
lighting customizations were located under one roof
Asus was not content to rest with that refresh rate
stereo speakers are no match for the fans in Turbo mode
repels fingerprints and smudges but is a bit of a dust magnet
stresses the CPU rather than the GPU to render a complex image
smidge thinner than its predecessor
QHD screen suffer from low frame rates
the battery will most likely peak at two hours
the system is only outputting at 1920 x 1080 resolution
noticed is a lack of Ethernet LAN port
the entry price of the system has suffered
lack of network port and interestingly designed and positioned volume wheel
lack of this feature
dim screen and middling performance make
its dim display and slightly underwhelming
it was a little too dark
no webcam to be found on the Zephyrus S
it felt only warm
not scalding hot
Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to
frequency is too low
users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches
notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession
slightly too low for the price
AAS panel felt a little flimsy
too large and/or expensive
Too many are simply trying to capitalize on affiliate revenue
the battery life is just under 4 hours
The laptop does not have room for additional storage devices
