    Under the display section it says:

    1. 15.6" 1080p
    2. (Optional) 15.6" 1080p, 178° Viewing Angle

    Can I take that to mean that the base model will have a TN panel?

    That's what I took it to mean.

    Still the huge awful bezels like it is 1999. The laptop is so big because of them, you could literally fit 17" screen instead of 15".

    LOL a bit picky but it is ok to have a preference. Just be thankful it don't got a glossy bezels like so many laptops had in the past and some still do or have flashing LEDS around the bezels...lol

    The bezel is fine by me, gives them room for that number pad. Too few 15" laptops have number pads.

    2x USB 2.0 Type-A seriously? Why would anyone need even one 2.0 port in 2017?
  • rocky12345 - Monday, May 29, 2017 - link

    I was wondering the same thing why not just have all the USB ports 3.0 or 3.1 makes a lot more sense in 2017.

    Mice and/or keyboards?

    scanners, printers, crappy old flash drives, most cell phones claim to be USB3 but are no faster than USB2 for transfer... Pretty much anything except flash drives are still in the world of USB2 really. Rather annoying.

    Not that these wouldn't work in USB3 (Except USB booting and KB@POST times).

    I think it might be a typo in the table, as the penultimate paragraph says "The right side houses two more USB 3.0 ports".

    it's half a year has passed since release but still there's no 4K version in shops anywhere in the world. only claims and nice images on asus.com. terrible marketing.
