This one has a spec that includes:
Intel i7-8750H Processor,
16 GB RAM,
512 GB PCI-e SSD
Nvidia 1070 Max-Q GPU
15.6 Inch 144Hz Screen with 3ms response time
Highlights include a sleek metallic finish, customisable keyboard lighting, ASUS ROG Armoury Crate app compatibility, multiple screen visuals (FPS, eye care, RTS, default, etc), awesome speakers and visuals and more.
I liked the front-forward keyboard design and the side sat touchpad which was surprisingly good - and doesn't get in the way like on normal laptops.
Standard use lasts about 1 hour without charging and 30 mins of gaming.
It is a bit of a fingerprint magnet, but it's also beautiful, well designed and has a lot of awesome features.

Other features include:
"The keyboard configuration is identical to mechanical keyboards. There’s an extra wide spacebar, long enter key, long backspace and directional keys. Users may access all sorts of shortcuts through the Fn Key combinations."
"There are two USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-C ports and one USB3.1 Gen2 Type-A on the right side, besides supporting high-speed external storage devices, one of the Type-C ports also supports video output."
"Meanwhile, DC-In, USB3.1 Gen1 Type-C, two USB2.0 and a 3.5mm audio jack, all the usual ports for connecting your keyboard, mouse, headphones or other peripherals are located on the left side."
"Lastly, the HDMI 2.0 port which outputs 4K 60Hz high definition pictures and a Kensington lock are situated in the back."
