I'm beyond thankful for you tyrial & for your audience. my story would've been forgotten if it weren't for you.. I'm glad i didn't give up and kept on pushing for justice, I don't want anyone else to go through what i went through with asus & their scummy service.. step up asus!

[xkben]

Thanks for bringing up Hassan. I literally just saw his video and felt so bad, and then you mention him on your platform for a bigger audience. Instant sub man

[aninfinitemindofmusicandreams]

I had a couple of ASUS laptops in mind before I picked my 2022 Legion 5i because I had a good experience with my old ASUS TUF. 140w RTX 3060, 16GB DDR5, 12700H, 1440p, 165hz screen. Absolutely flawless laptop.

I’ve had the 2021 G15 for nearly a year now. And luckily it all seems to work fine. Thermals are good, WI-FI works and it’s not too noisy for a laptop. I did get the occasional stuttering which I believe is an AMD issue but it was infrequent and hasn’t happened at all recently. I hope Hassan gets his sorted out, even though mine has been good so far experiences like Hassan’s will factor into my choice when I want to upgrade in the future.

[hkssgs]

Hello Tyrial! Well done buddy! I cant explain 115w gpu, all of this another problems, but performance differents maybe gets because of single channel ram 16 vs dual channel 32, even with ddr5. Step up Asus!

[alikhalif]

i had bought a g15 Strix AE during vacation in the usa BestBuy glad i did dead pixels and back light bleed test. when playing games it would run fine but i tried watch a movie and saw 3 lines of stuck or dead pixels at the top with alot of backlight bleed issue. i was able to return it and now am back in the netherlands waiting for my legion 5 pro to arrive

[saurabhbadgujar]

Bro, you should turn onn turbo mode/manual also faced similar issues but once turbo mode is onn I was getting 130+ watts with charger plugged in CONTROL .More over Call of duty doesn't push the System that much. My full Support for Hassan though, hopefully your issue is resolved.

In my quest to find a laptop during the pandemic I was thrown through it all. Had an HP Spectre that was defective as diagnosed by Best Buy, so they exchanged it. Then the replacement fully died after 6 months, so I was (thankfully) given my money back. Then I bought an Asus ZenBook (an expensive one that was about $1200), and it dies in 6 months. I then tried Asus Zephyrus laptops and Asus Strix (Advantage Edition) ones since I liked the Asus keyboards, and all were faulty; from backlight bleed to keys being broken on the keyboard from factory, to stuttering and lagging that when I showed the store they were astonished. Asus. Never. Again.

How long you've been using a laptops? I've been with a laptops since 2005. And definetly can tell you, that all laptops has its own problems. Hadn't had any with no flaws.

[evokaiyo]

The system stats show that your Legion 5 is running 2x16gb RAM, not the 16gb you claim in your setup. Whereas the Strix only has 16gb. That in itself will give the Legion 5 an FPS boost

[rapssss]

Back in the days I had one ASUS laptop and it had a hard drive failure after just 6 months of normal use. It took them 6 days to repair and I had to deliver it myself to the repair center. That was 10 years ago but I believe not all have changed for better with ASUS :D

[r.k]

There was a BIOS update released just today. Can you check if it helped with this current issue?

[juanbernardomendozaramos]

I just saw Hassan video minutes ago and now I saw your video, for me it’s reflecting my case with other brand, Thank you so much for stepping out to help your viewers !!! Not everyone does this!!

[hypnotic]

Man Asus just keeps messing things up, first they don’t include a MUX switch for last years models and now it’s this

[DanuVVS]

So is this a recurring issue w the G15 or is it also with G17?

[gianpaolop.]

I had a similar problem with my ASUS G513RW (6800H + 3070ti). I got a faulty unit that had a mux switch issue, the computer was freezing constantly and the extreme mode was not working with the notebook display. The problem was that a bought it in the amazon UK but was living in Brazil and the asus customer service refused to solve the issue there claiming that the model was not a Brazilian one. Because of that I discovered that the international warranty covered only a few countries. Eventually I found someone that could bring the notebook to a repair shop in Italy and the guys there complained that the original box(package) was not present. My friend had to sign a paper saying that if they needed to transport the notebook and it broke, it would be his fault. After one month the notebook was successfully repaired. In summary, the entire experience was terrible and I will never buy another asus product again. I still think that my unit is running hotter than it should, maybe they messed up with the thermal paste. Regarding the gpu wattage, mine reaches over 115w only when I remove the cpu turbo boost and cap the wattage.

[shabanalshaba]

Actually Asus Middle East Service in Dubai always neglect helping the customers who bought laptop through Amazon and they don't respect the international warranty, specially this one person in charge his name is Mr. Bryan H, he does not care at all, not only is he cheating but he also has power to kill any complaint at consumer protection department
I've had a similar case and when they failed on repairing my device he told me go to USA.
I failed to communicate with Asus Head Office in USA to submit my complaint against Mr Bryan H, Also I lost more than 8 monthes from waranty period in useless repaire and my lap still out of order.

[audiophile...]

I have the g15, 2021 model, no issues, no bugs, even though i don't game and tried forza at highest settings couple of times, worked fine with me.

[joecat]

Does the 2023 Version have the same problem? I really wanted this one but I don't want the 2023 if it does the same crap that you are showing us.

[skylyfeprojects]

Hey man great informative video and to be honest I agree with all of it due to the FACT I had an ASUS laptop Zenbook 16 12th gen I7 12000K and I kid you not the WIFI didn't work and neither did the charger. I immediately returned the laptop back to best buy and picked up the brand new Legion 5 PRO with RYZEN 7 6800 and RTX 3050 Ti and have no such issues as I did with ASUS as a matter a FACT it's a whole new experience. I will never again own another ASUS laptop poor quality control and awful customer service thank GOD best buy was there to assist me and make sure ASUS new that they provided a faulty product to a consumer. Thanks again for this vide people need to hear about ASUS and their terrible quality control
