Design
The shell of the ASUS looks like something straight out of the mid-90�s�and not in a good way. Despite how much nostalgia I have for that era, the matted beige case and pale orange accents look positively prehistoric compared to competing machines, which is strange when you consider how drop dead gorgeous the G751 managed to be.
Unfortunately, the inside isn�t much better. The gray-on-orange color scheme looks even worse when the red LEDs of the backlit keyboard are thrown into the mix, and it�s a bit baffling how the design was signed off on in the first place.
Only 90�s kids will get this laptop�s design.
Of course, this isn�t even taking the sheer weight of the system into account. At 8.8lbs, the G752VT is one of the heaviest laptops we�ve heaved around to date, and it�s not nearly as comfortable as it should be on the arm in a bag, on the lap, or slung in a backpack. The added lip at the back of the laptop takes up space that would otherwise put more distance between where your eyes rest and the rest of the screen, which can make longer typing
