ASUS TUF A16 Advantage Editioin
So to start I bought the laptop in May of 2023, I never really used it much that year until 2024 mostly used for watching movies and a few games here and there but nothing too taxing. The first thing I noticed is I had some major battery issues being from a full charge I couldn't even finish a single 1.5hr movie without having to plug it in, being that I only used the laptop when I was away for work having it plugged in never really bothered me much. Fast forward to this year I get a bit more downtime with my job and have been using it more.
About a month ago or so now one night I had it on my bed plugged in watching a show, it ended up falling off the bed and landing on the side where the charger was plugged into it.
After this incident the laptop will no longer power on without being plugged in and will not hold a charge. I took the back panel off to look for any cracks in the motherboard where the power adapter plugs in, and everything looks fine to me (an untrained eye on laptops, lots of experience with computers though). So I was hoping for the best and ordered a new battery and have just replaced it, but unfortunately to no avail this has not solved my issue.
I'm away for work currently and am hoping to find some help or solutions for this, I checked my warranty when this happened and I think it said I was like 3/4 months passed warranty. If not I am probably going to take it to a laptop repair place when my days off come.
Thanks in advanced for your time and any information is appreciated.
