ASUS reinforces its domination of the gaming laptop industry with the release of ROG Zephyrus S GX531. Currently owning 53% of the industry’s market share in the Philippines, ASUS has owned the title as the country’s No. 1 gaming brand. The Zephyrus S is another stride towards innovation being the world’s slimmest gaming laptop out there.

Boasting a total thickness of 15.75mm, the Zephyrus S is 12% thinner than its predecessor. But don’t be fooled, because, despite its slim profile, the Zephyrus S is fully packed with features you thought wouldn’t be possible to fit in such a small unit. Powered by the latest Intel Core i7-8750H CPU partnered with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 Graphics, the Zephyrus S is as tough as it can get. The Zephyrus S GX531 can also handle heavy workload aside from gaming and can be used for multitasking such as live streaming or video recording.

The Zephyrus S inherited the Active Aerodynamic System (AAS) present in previous Zephyrus models. This special ventilating system helps maintain the ideal temperature within the laptop’s hardware to keep it in peak performance. The patented Overstroke technology allows for a quicker response time and ergonomic keyboard use. The Zephyrus S’s keys can also handle up to 20 million presses: that’s durability you can rely on.
