When choosing between laptops like the ASUS ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition and the MSI Prestige 14, consider the intended use; the ASUS, while pricier and bulkier, excels in demanding tasks like gaming and 3D work due to superior performance, but it's less portable and has a shorter battery life. On the other hand, the MSI Prestige offers better mobility and longer battery life for everyday tasks and business applications at a lower cost, but it won't handle intensive tasks as well as the ASUS.

Andrew E. Freedman | August 2022
"The Asus ROG Strix G15, as the first in a line of "AMD Advantage"-branded notebooks, is a statement that yes, you can get a premium AMD gaming notebook. Maybe you can't have it all, but you can get pretty close. The ROG Strix G15's combination of the AMD Ryzen 5900HX and Radeon RX 6800M, as well as other technologies that take advantage of them, make a potent, thin gaming machine. Powerful Dolby Atmos speakers and long battery life when you aren't gaming are nice bonuses."
