During real-world testing, the Zephyrus M15 loaded 20 Google Chrome tabs which ran YouTubeTwitch and Gmail effortlessly. Even when we opened 12 more tabs simultaneously, the laptop never slowed down. On the Geekbench overall performance test, the Zephyrus M15 scored 25,421. That beats the mainstream gaming laptop average (22,412).

In terms of design, the ROG Zephyrus M15 has a light and sturdy magnesium alloy build with a brushed black tint finish. Its lid has a reflective half-smooth, half-dotted pattern surface with an embossed Republic of Gamers logo. In the right lighting, the laptop gives off a cool-looking rainbow effect. 

With a weight of 4.3 pounds and 14.2 x 9.9 x 0.7 inches, the Zephyrus M15 is just as thin as but lighter than its competitors. It weighs less than the Gigabyte Aero 15 Classic (4.6-pounds, 14 x 9.8 x 0.7-inches) and HP Omen 17 (2019) 7.1 pounds, 15.9 x 11.2 x 0.8-inches).
