Asus G15: My new favourite?

 This is my review of the G15 GA503. This is the best gaming laptop right now. And it is my favourite device of this year.



Aesthetics

When I heard of this device, I knew it was going to be a good one. It is an easily recognizable device as it has dots on the lid, which are only their on the G14 and G15. They don't look bad, but you can get stuff stuck in there, and it cannot be cleaned easily but, it is effortless to make it dirty. There are no LED lights on the dots anymore, if that matters to you. And the RGB colours are more visible on the dark version instead of the white one. The chassis is perfect. It is not very big in size and weighs only 2kg, but that does not mean less power. 

Keyboard and Screen

The keyboard rises up when you open the laptop like every Asus keyboard. And it is a good keyboard. The clicks are good, and it looks nice, but I have one complaint. There is no 'Print Screen' key, and if you depend on it, I am sorry, but you have to look somewhere else. The backlight is greyish-white, and it is very dim. So it is not really visible on the white laptop, and that's why I prefer the black one. The trackpad is nice and big. The speakers on the side look cool and sound better than your average gaming laptop speakers. The screen is good enough for me. It has a high resolution, and I am satisfied with 1440p.

Performance

The panel may not be perfect for people who play heavy games like Cyberpunk. So if you use the highest video quality with 1440p, it puts a little strain on the laptop but, that's okay. Now, I think the best configuration for this laptop is the 1799$ one with RTX 3070. The RTX 3080 one is available but, I don't like it. It is better than the 3070 one but, the difference is not worth it.





Thermals

I will suggest you go for the RTX 3070 unless you absolutely need 3080 which the majority of the people don't. There is another advantage with 3080 that you can extend the RAM from 16 to 32 and 3070 can be from 8 to 24. So if you need 32GB then you will have to but the RTX 3080 version for 2500$. This laptop uses liquid metal to cool. But, I think the liquid metal is only there on the CPU because the GPU is hotter than I would like it to be. The fans give you three modes: silent, balanced and turbo. But, I think you need something between turbo and balance because the balanced mode is not enough and the turbo one is too loud. Although that is not a major problem because you can manually tweak it according to you. So, overall the thermals are quite good.



Problems

The battery is quite good. It gives 6.5 hours for a 15-inch screen which is solid. The port selection is decent. 2USB A, 2USB C and 1 AC Adapter. The USB C won't charge super-fast but, it works. I think overall this is a really good laptop. And it is most likely to be the laptop of the year. There are very few problems but, if I had to pick; I don't like that the port for the adapter is halfway along the length of the laptop. I am very picky about software and the software needs some work. Also, the screen receives a lot of heat which is a bit concerning. Otherwise, it is one of the best laptops out there.

      You cannot choose one company to do good everywhere. Dell laptops are good but, this laptop is better than any Dell 'gaming' laptop. And Dell does not have more than 32 GB RAM, atleast not in every laptop

OnePlus 9 - You HAVE to settle

This is a review of the OnePlus 9 and its comparison to the OnePlus 9 Pro and 8 Pro. This blog also includes discussion related to the missing OIS in OnePlus. Hardware There is a lot to like about this phone. I love the fact that it has a flat-screen and this was going to be my preferred phone instead of the 9 Pro but that may have changed. So the speakers are as good as the 9 Pro ones. They are not as good as gaming phones but, they're good. There is a solid 7-8 hours of battery life. There is a wireless charger but, with less but, still enough power. The battery is much more consistent than the battery on 9 Pro because of the high refresh rate in the Pro version. The Problem So I was sure that the OnePlus 9 camera was going to as good as the 8 Pro if not better. But, for some reason, OnePlus decide to remove optical image stabilization. This may sound very small but, the difference is huge and every OnePlus phone has had it till this one. Which 730$ does not have OIS. I am really

Intel's Trap

 This is my blog to review Acer Triton 300 SE, Asus Dash F15 and MSI Stealth 15M's performance with the Intel H35 chips. I will also talk about the competition between Intel and AMD. Many gaming laptops are coming out, and some of them are good, especially the new AMD ones but if you are looking to buy a laptop and your choice has an Intel chip; You have been fooled! So I am going to talk about some new Intel devices and then about Intel in general. Now I have nothing against Intel, in fact, I myself am typing this on an Intel device. Asus Dash F15 This machine has a 4-core CPU. So, this makes it easy to cool, lighter, thinner, and you would think cheaper. So it is a nice idea. But, Asus didn't make it cheap. So it does not really make sense anymore. This laptop will cost you 1700$, and you can get 8-core Asus devices in that range so why would somebody go for this?  The gaming performance is good as it has RTX 3070, and most of the games will give you a good frame

Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+

 Hey Guys, Welcome back to Interesting Intelligence! This is my review of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+. iPad's competitor? If you would have asked me some time before that "Which is the best tablet", I would have undoubtedly said "iPad Pro", but now we have competition! Samsung Galaxy S7+ is surely the best android tablet and a toe-to-toe competitor of the iPad. It is, in fact, the more practical choice for many people. The hardware specs on this thing are solid! There are two speakers on each side of the tablet and this thing is awesome for anything which has something to do with audio! Screen, Pen and Keyboard. S7+ has a 120Hz panel and because it has a high refresh rate, things look superfluid. I have said before that refresh rate should not be a major reason to buy a smartphone but it definitely is in tablets because of the electronic pen. The pen on this device is also up to the point. There are only 7 milliseconds of latency. The pen magnetically sticks on
