ASUS ROG Zephyrus S GX502GW Laptop Review

Accessories

As you might expect, when you open the box you do not just have a laptop inside. ASUS has provided a number of useful and necessary accessories to help get you quickly set up and ready to run!

Documentation

In terms of documentation, you frankly don’t get a lot. Admittedly, a laptop is a fairly self-explanatory thing and maybe we’re moving beyond the times of having physical product manuals any more.

You do, however, get a a rather cool ‘mechanical structure’ booklet. Of which you, incidentally, have to be over the age of 14 to use.

Battery

You are provided with a battery block as well as a cable adaptor depending on the plugs in your region. The battery itself is relatively as you would expect, albeit perhaps a little smaller and lighter than on older laptop designs.

A major plus, however, is the cabling. In both the input and output, the length of the cabling is absolutely perfect. Actually, you could argue that this is better than most laptops as ASUS has decided to keep the battery block closer to the laptop than usual. This positioning allows for you to pretty much have the laptop comfortably plugged in charging anywhere. Well, within about 3 meters of the socket at least.

It does, of course, go without saying that the battery does carry a little branding. Like the laptop, however, this is clear, but also nice and subtle. As we said earlier, it’s branding that catches the eye, but doesn’t demand attention.
