I purchased the Asus AN17 just over a year ago. I wanted a gaming laptop as it has the right features that compliment my need for a laptop that I could edit photos and video via Adobe software.To start with, I must admit that I have been really pleased with it. Its done the job. I do regret however, not checking the type of screen it had as I didn't realise it was not HDR which you really need for editing HDR Video and Photos. I got around it by plugging an HDMI lead in and editing on my 55 inch HDR TV Screen.My one concern (which is why I didn't give it 5 stars) is the power connector. Over the past year, the weight of the power cable and connector that plugs into the back of the laptop has bent the holding pins and the power connecter just falls out. This is down to the socket not being robust enough. I did speak to ASUS about it before the warranty expired but they said I would need to send the laptop back to them and it could take about a month. I use this laptop for work as a photographer and videographer, and this would be devistating to my business.To sum up - its a great laptop that does the job but the build quality is a bit lacking.
