Great laptop! Good for xbox games when I'm away from home.
All round good computer. Its light, compact but a good size to play games on. The build is good enough for me to play xbox games and other high demand games when I'm away from home. Its also the TUFF series, so its solid and can take the accidental bump. Definitely worth the money.

Good laptop, pretty satisfied
This is my first gaming laptop and to be honest it feels good. The keys feel nice to press and the layout is satisfying to use. The laptop does what I need it to, fulfilling the gaming and work aspects I require. The display looks pretty good too and is just about the right size. It seemed the ideal choice as it was part of the TUF series, giving me the peace of mind that any bumps and drops can be shrugged off.

Excellent gaming laptop at excellent price
I purchased this laptop as my everyday / gaming PC. The AMD Ryzen 7 4800H and GTX 1660 Ti combo means that I can play all of my favorite games comfortably in high detail. The 512GB SSD also means that the laptop boots quickly and powers through everyday tasks in a heartbeat. Furthermore, the hardware specs will remain relevant for years to come and all for that mid range laptop price point. I can highly recommend the laptop, extremely well priced if you shop around and I will definitely be looking at ASUS products in the future for the next upgrade.

So far so good. Fast and clean looking
Using this laptop for general day to day browsing and occasional gaming. So far so good. Very fast, I wish they had the option for the 90wh battery or at least make it easy to purchase but the 48wh will have to do until it eventually needs to be replaced. I lke the backlit keys and the back of the screen. Looks very rugged. Not too heavy for me and opens with ease. Screen is pretty dull but fine for indoor use. I chose this laptop because of the ryzen 4800h cpu and it flies. Its good to see JB hifi stock the newer models and not just the old am...
Read mored and intel cpus. This model also has the 1660 ti. I know they 20 series are out but they are hard to find and they are not that much faster (They use the max q models i believe in this price range and i cant justify the price jump for the non q)Purchased in at JB Hi-Fi for $1,650.

So Far so good
I only just got this computer but so far am happy with it. I brought it to use for a mixture of normal computing (writing, netflixing and internet surfing) as well as entry level gaming. I decided on this one because it seemed like a good starter gaming laptop with a decent enough graphics card to play a lot of the games I am interested in and the durability also appealed. I think the design seems pretty good and the keyboard has a nice feel to it. I have only ever used non gaming computers prior so did find it more heavy than normal. Also just...
Read more the initial setup of the computer had the fan going pretty loudly and it getting a bit hotter than my previous computer did. I am not a big fan of the backlighting (especially how it changes colour) but I understand that is pretty standard for gaming computers and it can probably be switched off.Purchased in at JB Hi-Fi Online Store for $1,647.75.

Great gaming laptop. Do away with limitations.
Purchased at Harvey Norman, taking advantage of Boxing Day sales. Needed an upgrade as my previous laptop had obvious signs of age, struggling to handle the demands of latest game titles and digital art/creativity. Couldn't go past the value for money with this laptop, with ample RAM, a decent higher end graphics card and a SSD with plenty of storage, it's performance more than meets my expectations. The 'military-grade' chassis feels great in your hands, confidence in durability and a good build.

It changed my mind of playing games using a laptop
I am a casual PC game player and in the past 20 years I've been playing computer games using desktops and this laptop has changed my mind.
I was planned to buy a new desktop this time as all my existing desktops are too old/broken and can't games anymore. When talked to staff at JB Hi-Fi he said the laptop processor and graphic card of laptops had a big improvement in the past year and suggested me consider to buy laptops instead of desktop.
He suggested this ASUS TUF A15 to me, which has an AMD R7 4800H CPU together with 1660ti graphic c...
Read moreard and the price is very competitive compare to a desktop with similar configuration and you get a portable solution. After a quick check of a few reviews, I decided to buy this one but was a bit unsure how good its performance will be. Now I've been using it for 4days. I have played world of warcraft, LOL and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. I'm quite happy with the performance it has with all these x3 games. I can run a high-quality video setting now on all the x3 games and playing smoothly. I should mention that the screen of the laptop is a nice 144HZ screen but too small for me, so I did use extra screen for gaming. But think about using a desktop PC, you still need an extra screen but then you can't carry it when travelling while for this laptop you can.Purchased in at JB Hi-Fi for $1,647.75.

Gaming excellence!
I love this laptop. Scintillating colour-changing keyboard makes working on it a relaxing and enjoyable experience. Also the graphics on this amazing computer enhance all gaming adventures. There is a webcam so there is no requirement to attach an external one. All inclusive. Purchased from Harvey Norman where the staff were extremely helpful.

Great Performance
I bought this computer, not for gaming but for work. I am a Python developer and for my work, I need to run a couple of Docker instances, some servers, and connect at least 2 extra screens.
So far the notebook is great being able to handle everything perfectly.
Although I haven't enjoyed the difficulty that's to install Linux, also my first option wasn't this one, I was looking at the ASUS ROG but I decided to buy this one due to the fact that the ROG one does not come with a webcam.

Great Value
Bought the FX506IU-HN191T from JB Hi Fi. This is a great laptop. I do not have much of a basis to compare to but I can run a couple of games on high settings (Minecraft, ShellShock Live) simultaneously whilst streaming on discord to my friends without any issue. It can run my games on a high FPS. On Rainbow Six Siege with ultra settings, it cannot bulldoze through at 144 fps (it gets frame drops), it can still do a solid 72 fps without any interruptions. The keyboard looks cool too. If you need more memory space later on, there is an additional slot for a second SSD. The fact this is a portable device is also really handy. Overall, I think it's worth the price.
