The simple swap in graphics has resulted in half the starting the price. If you want a professional laptop without the professional GPU, then the 15.6-inch Asus StudioBook 15 H500 or 17.3-inch H700 can serve as an alternative to the Razer Blade Studio or MSI Prestige.

Still a 57an battery, IMHO that is too small.

76WHrs seems reasonable to me.
There is a 15.6" StudioBook with Quadro RTX5000. It's just W500 rather than H500. Maybe it's the wrong specification.
Is the 17 really 17.3"? Implying it's 16:9. Because 17" StudioBook was 17" and 8:5 (16:10) AFAIK. A switch to 16:9 would be a disappointment.
I guess I shouldn't have skipped the text. I thought you were talking about the Quadro T2000 equipped versions (which are the versions available in stores around here; RTX5000 is pricey) and I was really curious about how they achieved the "cutting price in half" so I went directly for specifications. But the idea stands, maybe it's the wrong sheet. It doesn't actually say H500.

The 17 inch version has a 3 cell, 57 Wh battery. Maybe that's what he was talking about. And 17" 8:5 display. It's weird for a smaller version to have larger battery. And 57 is almost ridiculous. asus.com/Laptops/ProArt-StudioBook-17-H700GV/Tech-Specs/
Yes I was talking about the 17 inch model. The Asus Product page says 57WH. Small!
