ASUS has finally started selling the Zenbook Pro 17 in Europe, over three months after the company introduced the laptop. Equipped with a powerful AMD Ryzen 6000 APU, the Zenbook Pro 17 also features a 2.5K and 165 Hz display that measures 17.3-inches across, plus an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 discrete GPU.

After all these years, ASUS still managed to put rectangular feet and back plates that are going to cut into your feet and cause irritation when used as a "lap" top.

Apple's rounded feet and back plate design is still unmatched decades later...

Yeah...the depicted use case doesn't seem very Pro, and the specs are, as expected, accordingly not-so-Pro. An actually Pro laptop is generally not shown to be used on top of the lap...in fact humans seem left out of such ads altogether, it's just the product.
