It is always among the first to embrace new technologies like Nvidia G-Sync or Core M while at the same time maintaining strong build quality and attractive designs. In 2015 for example, the company was the first to put Nvidia’s G-Sync anti-tearing technology onto a gaming notebook, launching it on the G751J. In 2016, it also gave us a lot to look forward to, including the XG Station, a new graphics amp that lets you use your laptop with a desktop graphics card.

This has made the brand to stand out from other manufacturers, as it strives to increase its market share in Kenya.
Last year the second year in a row, ASUS gaming laptops with NVIDIA GeForce GTX Series graphics cards topped the global sales market. Data for the NVIDIA GeForce GTX-powered laptop segment showed that the global market share for ASUS gaming laptops was 40% based on sales from January-June 2016, which equals the 40% share the company recorded in the same time period last year. This figure is more than the combined share (36%) of its three major competitors, with the closest competitor only registering a 13% market share.
ASUS gained considerable growth in the Middle East, Turkey and Africa (META) and Asia-Pacific (APAC) markets, with a 43% and 36% market share respectively. Market share figures for both these markets increased by five percentage points compared to the same period last year.
This data is a clear indication that the brand is really doing well in the global market. It will be interesting to watch the new products the company has in store for us and also the new products it will be launching during the 2017 Mobile World Conference happening this month.
