Full details
The Asus ROG Strix G18 is a high-performance, 18-inch gaming powerhouse engineered for serious gamers and creative professionals who require desktop-class performance in a portable chassis.

While it delivers elite performance, its large 18-inch form factor and 3.2 kg weight mean it is less portable than standard thin-and-light laptops.
