In this kind of devices, to be spectacular is almost more important than its process capacities. The G70s earns much in this way. To its perfect design some other extras are added making it even more special. One of them is the lighting. Each extreme of the notebook has some kind of lighting that marks its design especially when we are in not very illuminated places. The screen is marked two blue strips, like the ROG logo, and also at this rear part the height throw out zone, that we will view in detail later, is illuminated with red leds to mark its presence.

Even the ROG logo is illuminated

Fast Keys and an OLED screen are combined with different programmable keys next to the keyboard to give color and lighting to the keyboard area, complete keyboard with number pad, bringing color uniformity where blue is the most important one in the visible part, leaving the red color to zones where the notebook marks its position.

Asus has made a great work with the edges in the design of this device. Each part of the G70s is plagued by shapes in very marked edges giving it a very aggressive and sporty look. These all zones cut in a flat way are greatly opposed with some smooth curved edges. We can notice this all better in greatest areas like screen frames, the chassis of the display or the keyboard area.

When the lights fall the G70 lighting stands out

Another feature of the design I like is that being the screen smaller than the notebook itself at the folding area, Asus has managed to give it an excellent solution. They have used larger hinges for the display reducing the difference and raising and keeping it more away from the rest of the device giving a more comfortable angle to spend lots of hours in front of the computer.

Customizable OLED Screen

Tactile surface buttons and Power button

In the overall design of the G70s the touchpad and the rest of the direct action buttons take much importance. The G70s in its final version will have its own media center software that we will be able to control with the touchpad with sections of it made with direct buttons for typical actions in media player software. Its touchpad, its OLED screen and its programmable keys will make the use of it for games an exciting and intuitive experience where the experts will find more extensive information and controls without leaving the sight from the screen.
