The right side carries two more USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports. The left side hosts the port for charging the laptop, along with an Ethernet jack, HDMI 2.0, USB 3.2 Gen 1 (Type-A) and even Thunderbolt 4 (USB Type-C).
Thankfully, the Dash F15 doesn’t sacrifice ports in its quest for sleek. There are also no play or pause functions on the keyboard. I’d much rather have the volume mute button here, alongside the other volume buttons (it’s on the FN row instead). Less welcome is the button for launching Asus’ Armoury Crate software. You get some offset media controls, including a mute button, which is particularly handy as we do more conference calls from home offices. White WASD keys also add to the gamer aesthetic but can look kind of cheap, as you can see the keys’ cross-armed-like white retainers, especially if you turn the blue backlight on. Liberties were also taken with the shape of the power button. The deck loves to attract fingerprints and is side-flanked with diagonal line carvings that complement the vents north of the keyboard. When you open the Dash F15, you’re greeted by a more gamer-friendly font and a darker deck. The Acer Predator Triton 300 is also of a similar build (4.4 pounds, 14.3 x 10 x 0.7 inches), but the Alienware m15 R4, which also holds an RTX 3070 graphics card, is heavier than the Dash F15 (5.25 pounds). At 4.41 pounds and 14.17 x 9.92 x 0.78 inches, it’s a little lighter and wider than the Razer Blade 15 Advanced Model (4.7 pounds, 14 x 9.3 x 0.7 inches). The Dash F15 isn’t the only trim gaming laptop on the block.
