During the new CES 2021 digital event, ASUS lifted the lid on its new updated Zephyrus G15. Designed for gaming, the ROG Zephyrus G15 includes multiple configurations, with a 15.6 “display with a 144 Hz 1080p IPS or a 1440p 165 Hz panel, AMD’s next-generation Ryzen mobile processor.
ASUS has updated the ROG Zephyrus G15 with some notable features, including a new 90 Wh battery with a 200 W AC charger. Still, it can be used with its 100 W Type-C charging adapter, which is available separately. ASUS announces a 10-hour battery. In terms of size, the ROG Zephrus has a depth of 19.9 mm and weighs only 1.9 KG, which is quite slim for a gaming notebook.
