Price/spec verdict
What you get for the money
Strong £679.14 entry-gaming value for an RTX 5050 8GB laptop with 16GB upgradeable RAM and a 144Hz 16-inch screen; the unconfirmed GPU wattage and basic 45% NTSC panel stop it being an unconditional recommendation.

Terms that affect the real price
- The listing does not provide a usable RTX 5050 TGP/wattage figure. Gaming performance can vary materially with GPU power limits, so compare exact-model benchmarks before buying for demanding games.
- The 300-nit, 45% NTSC display is fast but basic for colour; it is better suited to gaming and general use than colour-critical creative work or HDR media.
- The 512GB SSD will fill quickly with large games, and the laptop has one M.2 slot, so expanding storage means replacing the supplied drive.
- Amazon does not explicitly state the physical UK keyboard layout or ASUS warranty term for this listing; confirm both if they matter.
Why it works
Reasons it is worth a look
- An RTX 5050 Laptop GPU with 8GB GDDR7 at this price, it is a compelling starting point for 1080p and 1200p gaming.
- The eight-core Core 5 210H, 16GB DDR5 and 512GB PCIe 4.0 SSD form a balanced budget-gaming specification, and ASUS lists two DDR5 SODIMM slots with support for up to 32GB.
- The 16-inch 1920x1200 anti-glare display runs at 144Hz, while the 63Wh battery, two-fan cooling and included UK charger make the core package practical.
