The left one activates the Nvidia GeForce Experience software and the button right next to it launches Steam. The Num-Lock key, for example, was replaced by a key that activates the Asus Gaming Center and there are five special buttons above the keys Escape to F4. The pretty standard layout does not hold many surprises. The typing experience suggests a very high quality and should also be able to convince frequent writers. The slightly concave keys have an anti-slipping coating, a long travel, a firm pressure point and a good stroke. Our impression of the keyboard was excellent. The smooth keys offer a perfect amount of resistance in the opinion of the author and offer a good haptic feedback thanks to the firm pressure point. We cannot criticize the precision, but the cursor sometimes had problems following very fast movements. You can configure gestures with up to three fingers simultaneously via Asus Smart Gesture (picture). The surface is not sensitive up into the peripheral areas and it is completely smooth, so swiping gestures don't create a haptic feedback. This worldwide warranty can be extended to three years with an optional Asus Warranty Extension.Īsus uses the available surface and equips the G751JY with an unusually large touchpad with very large dedicated buttons that have a slightly roughened surface and the ROG-typical shape. WarrantyĪsus grants a two-year manufacturer's warranty with a Pick-Up & Return service. The cover is secured by one screw and can easily be opened. At the bottom is a maintenance cover that reveals the SSD, the hard drive and the memory slots. The base unit is closed up to the top, so you can probably access the components like the fan from the top. Our review unit is a device from the shop, so a complete disassembly was out of the question. Many accessories with the ROG label can be purchased in Asus' online shop. The potential buyer doesn't get any (recovery) DVDs.

The box only contains the power adaptor, warranty information, security information as well as a zip tie and a hardware manual. We can usually see a pretty big drop the bigger the distance gets, but that was not the case here. The transfer rates can be maintained with an increased distance and therefore more obstacles between the device and the router. The signal quality was above average in the individual setup of the author.

Bluetooth 4.0 is obviously integrated as well. The designation of the latter already reveals the support for the less crowded 5 GHz network as well as Gigabit WLAN. The review unit can use the Ethernet module or the premium WLAN module Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC-7260 to establish an Internet connection. One hand is sufficient to open the lid because of the heavy base unit. The maximum opening angle of the display is, similar to previous ROG notebooks, limited to almost 130 degrees, but that should not really be an issue in practice. It is unfortunate that the high quality impression from the materials and the otherwise impeccable build quality without sharp or protruding edges and uneven gaps takes a small hit.

The stability is average and pressure from the back is no problem, but you can easily twist it, which immediately creates picture distortions that are accompanied by unhealthy sounding creaking noises. However, that cannot be said about the display cover. We could just slightly twist the base unit with a lot of force and there were no creaking sounds. We think the nice chassis looks even better than the predecessor Asus G750JZ. At the back are still the characteristic fan exhausts with metallic orange elements. There we can see the Asus logo in the center and above that the illuminated ROG logo. The most noticeable design aspect is one large element at the display cover with an anthracite-colored brushed metal surface that is continued under the hinges. The top of the base unit is now completely even and not lowered towards the center anymore, the lettering of the keys is now red instead of white. The brushed metal finish at the top of the base unit was replaced with a soft-touch finish that attracts fingerprints and is also used for the display cover. Asus introduces some changes compared to the predecessor G750JZ, but it still uses the edgy and futuristic design, which is typical for ROG-devices, so the new device can easily be recognized as a ROG device as well.
