      ​@@prahaladlohandan1835AFAIK Asus has abysmal RMA and warranty support in North America specifically (no idea about other countries, possibly other places too), lots of stories repairs going wrong, people spending money they shouldn't have and lots of issues with faulty products like ROG Ally killing SD cards

      ​​@@RiveTheRatThe only time I have seen Asus support in action was when a friend's laptop began having some really weird battery issues right by the end of the warranty period.
      He took it to the store, the store shipped it to the US, then a couple of weeks later he had the laptop back and it worked properly. No charge.
      Not discounting the issues that other people are facing, just saying that the only close to personal experience I've had has been positive.

I am pretty sure all that ASUS would do is weather the storm while they do little to nothing while they wait for people's short memories to kick in.

It's also the last ASUS product I'll ever own. O went MSI years ago because of ASUS shenanigans, and they've gotten worse.
