ASUS Proart Studiobook Line

[buzzard75]

Has there been any more word on ASUS Proart Studiobook line of laptops? We had a reveal over two months ago and then an addition of a flagship model to the line back in October. Everything pointed to a release date soon, but nothing since. Just wondering if there's been any news on these as I'm in dire need of a replacement laptop and this line, specifically the 15", looks to be the front runner for me. I find it strange that in over two months for something that's already been in the hands of media that there hasn't been some inkling of a price or release date for these models.

I finally found a couple listings. They don't show up on their website unless you do a Google search or you just search Proart on the Asus store website. No other way to find them.

Pro 17 for $1999 with i7

XoticPC also has some listings with similar pricing. They also list a Pro X model with the RTX3000 for $3099. No listings for the 15" model yet, which is what I'm really interested in.

Pro 15 with i7 and RTX5000 for $3999 went up last week

Was glad to finally see the listing. It's a moot point for me though as the $3999 price tag is out of my price range. Was hoping for something closer to $2500. Would have probably even stretched to $2999 for those specs.

In the end I opted for a deal on a Lenovo ThinkPad P53, 15.6" 4k OLED touch screen, i7-9850H, 512GB SSD, 32GB RAM, RTX3000 for $2100.
