This isn’t the only problem with it. The touchpad also acts up a lot, as in the pointer randomly being moving around and clicking stuff.

Guys I received my asus tuf a15 laptop that I ordered few days back off Amazon , it came with a broken seal i didn't notice it at the time of delivery , I still opened the box the laptop seems to be working fine rn i checked the specs and everything matched the serial number everything was fine , I called asus customer support they said if I face any issues within the next 7 days they will replace any defective parts but not after that , so now my warranty is void ig?

it looks like a hardware problem. Asus has gone to s**t and I'll never buy another Asus product again.

I think Asus has really nailed the price/performance ratio with the TUF line. When they are discounted they just can't be beat. FPS per dollar spent when gaming on the native display is unmatched right now. The thing that really puts it over the top is that it has a 100% sRGB display.

Actual guess maybe the button mechanism is worn down. As far as the pad goes you probably should see if it’s repairable.

✅ What Works

  • Price-to-performance is called out by name — one owner says the TUF line's FPS per dollar is unmatched when discounted
  • The 100% sRGB display is singled out as a standout feature at this price

⚠️ Worth Knowing

  • Build quality is the most-flagged issue in this sample: one report describes the touchpad pointer moving and clicking on its own
  • A separate owner cites what they describe as a hardware problem, saying it soured them on the brand entirely
  • Feedback volume is limited (6 mentions), so treat the pattern as directional rather than conclusive
ClearPick Verdict

Owners report a split experience with the TUF Gaming A15: **the price-to-performance ratio draws real praise**, with one owner calling the FPS-per-dollar on its 100% sRGB display unmatched at this price point. But the same small pool of Reddit discussion is dominated by build complaints, including a widely-upvoted report of an erratic touchpad and a separate account of a hardware failure severe enough to sour the owner on the brand entirely. With only 6 mentions the sample is thin, but negatives outweigh positives here, and **the reliability concerns are consistent enough to warrant caution** before buying.
