Great laptop - battery life is only letdown.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great laptop. Super powerful in a small form factor. I'm getting Time Spy of above 15000. Great screen. Great speakers. Great keyboard. Great trackpad. Love the 16:10 aspect ratio. I've upgraded to 32GB - no problem! I've had no build quality problems - I've heard others have. Only disappointment is battery life. Some people claim G14s get mammoth battery life. That's not my experience with this laptop.

The Perfect Gaming Laptop!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I tested quite a few new laptops before deciding on the Asus Zephyrus G14. It has all of the power you would need for AAA gaming, editing, 3d modeling, video editing. Plus the style of the laptop is truly one of a kind! Having the ability to upgrade the RAM up to 48GB as well as replace the internal M.2 SSD leaves room for longevity. This will be my daily driver for at least the next 5 years or longer.

Not living up to the hype...
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let's keep this short and to the point. The Zephyrus line of laptops has a legacy dating back a few years. I had a 2021 G15 w/ a 3080 that I loved to death. It ran great, but I wanted to upgrade. A 14" variant was the perfect size and I had heard great things about the G14 variants. So, I purchased this exact one in confidence. Unfortunately, it fell just short of expecations. The good: - It's a sleek package, looks and feels great. - High end hardware, itty bitty living space. - Keyboard is phenomenal - Screen looks and performs fantastic, some IPS glow, but that's to be expected. - A LOT quieter than anticipated. The bad: - The bloat on it is too much, ASUS. - Why can't I log in to safe mode? My pin always "has a problem" even after resetting multiple times, and I can't get out of it without resetting or using some command prompt trickery. - Performance does not seem to be up to snuff, though that could have been my model. Average FPS on Apex legends was around 80 maxed out. Which is concerning when my G15 from 2021 got up to 120 on average. - Likely Windows related, but forcing BitLocker on me is not a good thing. Having to hunt down my key every time I want to boot in safe mode is not fun. Needless to say, this was a letdown. I got to play some games, and it worked well enough until I decided I didn't like the software preinstalled. Tried to clean install GPU drivers, but I could not run DDU in safe mode as it literally locked me out EVERY SINGLE TIME I tried. No amount of resets, troubleshooting, and command prompt magic fixed this issue. What would happen is my PIN would no longer be valid, but I could not set it up for some unknown reason. Very concerning. Also, G Helper is leagues above anything ASUS puts on here. I really wish they'd allow users to opt-in to an install just to save us all a step in removing bloatware. All in all, I'm not too impressed with software side of things and will reconsider purchasing ASUS products in the future.

Great laptop, but has a few issues
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For this review, I got the 4080 model. It is quite a performant laptop and is very portable. I bought this as a desktop replacement for college and it is doing well so far. If you want to get the best out of this machine, you need to go through a few hoops. I first wanted to upgrade the internal drive and the ram. Apparently this model is very picky with what type of ram you can use, so for highest compatibility, I would reccommend any 4800 mhz cl40 sodimm ddr5 ram. When installing a new ssd boot drive and reinstalling windows and reinstalling all the OEM drivers, I noticed that the armory crate didnt recognize auto refresh rate or energy panel saver, and the gpu power profiles wouldnt switch from standard. After troubleshooting all day and reinstalling every driver, I decided it was not a driver issue, but armory crate being a buggy mess. To circumvent this issue, I installed an armory crate alternative known as G-helper, which has some stability issues, but isnt nearly as bad as armory crate. Ghelper solved all my issues with armory crate. The thermals in this machine get quite hot, in gaming workloads, even with reduced power limits of 90 watt gpu and 65 watt cpu, it regularly reaches 85 degrees celcius, I heard a good undervolt would help with these temperatures. Idle and low usage temps are good, typically around 47-55 degrees celcius on silent mode. This laptop has all the fancy auto power settings you may want to maximize battery life when off the charger and maximize performance on AC. It's battery life for me has been around 7-8 hours with the right power settings which almost made me forget this is a gaming laptop. I only remember that once it boots up any intensive ganmes, then its fans kick up and it gets really hot. In conclusion, this is a great portable powerhouse if you have the money, and I believe this is the best performance per dollar, as the 4090 model only peforms around 8% better on average in games for 800$ more and the 4070 model performing around 50% worse overall for only 650$ less.

Absolute powerhouse - for both work and gaming.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to use my custom built desktop for some time but when I started working on this laptop I was surprised at just how much more performant it was in comparison. The speed of this machine absolutely trounces over my desktop and then some, with drastically improved sculpt performance in Blender and a wicked fast boot speed. Battery life is poor but to be expected from a machine with this much stuff packed in - Being on battery is more for quick file management in transit - You'll want to be plugged into a wall for more intensive tasks, and chances are that a plug is available if you're sitting down to work or game with this on hand. It's called a "Laptop" but really you'll want this on a desk because if you're doing any kind of heavy task like managing high polygon sculpt data, it gets quite toasty and your legs will block the vents located at the bottom. The Ergo Hinge is made to prop it up above the surface it's seated on to improve thermals, so nothing blocks those vents at the bottom when the lid is open. Overall a fantastic machine, and I'd recommend this to anyone with the cash to spare, because things might get expensive at the high end, but this will last a LONG time, provided you keep it free from dust and liquids. These things aren't waterproof.

Solid But Slightly Ugly Laptop
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a pretty solid little laptop. Runs most games on ultra + Ray tracing ultra, at around 60 fps. The IPS display is how you'd expect it to look, not to the level of a mini LED, but good nonetheless. The overall build feels great - solid sounding and feeling keyboard, casing feels solid though plastic. Mousepad is nice and responsive. Smooth wrist wrests, and most importantly, it doesn't get too hot where your hands are usually located when playing games. Only downside I can see is the white color. If this was offered in a dark grey or black it would receive 5 stars from me. The white just doesn't do it for me - its not atrocious, but seems a bit childish.

Asked by GrumpyTechHoarder.
- A:Answer Re windows, Best Buy specs are contradictory here. One place says Win 11 Home, elsewhere says Win 11 Pro. I suspect it’s Pro cuz I think the 4080 and 4090 models get Pro. Owners weigh in please. And yes you get a goofy display. Smile cuz this is the last year you can get the goofy display. With 2024 model you will will look like you bought an HP/Dell/Lenovo business PC model.
