Not a 5 for me
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the product so premium. But unfortunately when I got it I travelled out of the US for work to realize that the left ctrl button is physically sticky even though it does register after a stronger press. I paid so much for this and it is kinda disappointing getting this! I waited for so long for it and since I travelled out of USA I am stuck with this not knowing what to do. Could have been an easy 5 but!

Apple build quality, but can actually play games!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Design and Build Quality The ASUS Zephyrus G16 2024 is a premium laptop with excellent craftsmanship. It’s like the James Bond of laptops - sleek, stylish, and always ready for action. It’s surprisingly slim given the hardware inside. The build quality is finally on par with that of a MacBook Pro, which is a significant improvement and a testament to ASUS’s commitment to quality. Display The laptop comes with a 16-inch OLED display with a refresh rate of 240Hz, which offers vibrant colors and sharp details. It’s so smooth, it makes both games and regular tasks feel like butter sliding on a hot pan. It’s so good, you might forget you’re looking at a screen and not a window into another world. The screen is sturdy and can be opened with one hand, a feature that is often overlooked but greatly appreciated. Keyboard The keyboard on the ASUS Zephyrus G16 2024 is very nice, providing a comfortable typing experience. However, it only has one RGB zone. Having more than one RGB zone would allow for cool effects when typing, adding a bit of flair to your gaming sessions. Performance: The ASUS Zephyrus G16 2024 is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 9 185H processor, 32 GB of LPDDR5x RAM, and Nvidia RTX 4090 graphics. It’s like having a sports car engine in a family sedan. However, the performance of the RTX 4090 is somewhat limited in this thinner chassis. Inputs and IO: The laptop has punchy speakers that deliver high-quality audio, making it a joy for music lovers and gamers alike. However, it lacks built-in media keys, which is a surprising omission for a laptop this big. It’s like having a state-of-the-art home theater system but no remote to control it. For its premium price point, it’s also missing Wi-Fi 7. However, the good news is that the Wi-Fi card can be upgraded, so you’re not stuck with Wi-Fi 6E forever. Battery Life: The laptop comes with a 90Wh battery that offers good runtimes. But with a 4090 keep expectations within reason. Price: The laptop is priced at around $3299, which is a bit pricey, especially for the 4090 version. But hey, who said being the coolest kid on the block was cheap? Gaming Experience: For serious gaming, a chill mat is highly recommended to keep the laptop cool during intense gaming sessions. It’s like giving your laptop a personal air conditioner. Future Potential: With the upcoming addition of Copilot+ functionality for Nvidia GPUs by Nvidia and Microsoft, this laptop has the potential to become a powerful tool for AI-related tasks. It’s like giving a cheetah a jetpack. Verdict: The ASUS Zephyrus G16 2024 is a high-performance gaming laptop. It’s slim, sleek, and fantastic to use as a daily driver. However, with the RTX 4090 onboard, it’s got a lot of high-end hardware. The inclusion of Wi-Fi 7 would make it even more future-proof and provide users with a better value for their investment.

Warning, this thing will overheat
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First day owning this 4090 laptop I couldn’t get any games to play without it overheating and shutting off on its own. Don’t bother with one of these. I sent mine back day 1. Try a Lenovo or something that has actual airflow. The one star is for the screen and the fact that you could cook some food on the laptop with how hot it gets.

Looks like Mac but performs bad
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To be Honest the build quality is excellent but performance is very bad for 3.2k laptop . Cons 1. Does not handle long gaming sessions well (Over heats and game starts lagging). 2. when connected to a monitor it cannot handle , 240 hz displays . It simply shutters with a 4090 graphics and ultra 9 processor . Tried all the display settings but no help 3. Network Adapter needs a buff. Cannot reach any wifi signal even though in range . Had to buy a ethernet cable for stable gaming . 4. Haven't tried any editing softwares . Might perform well with those. Might be a Faulty laptop from the start ... Will return it as soon as possible. Thanks

Asus Nailed It!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Asus nailed it with this years line up with the new 2024 Asus ROG Zepherus G16. The oled screen is a very nice change with more vibrant colors especially when HDR is enabled. The screen looks amazing without HDR as well. The new Intel i9 processor is a nice new addition as well handling the OS and the ability to multitask between different projects. The gpu RTX4090 is a nice little upgrade. I played 3 different games. Halo Infinite, Diablo 4 and MW3 all of which ran phenomenally at ultra settings. I can't really say how good they run on battery due to my decision to always play games on the laptop while plugged in to get the best possible performance I can. Though I imagine it will still run pretty good on battery power if it runs good plugged in. After seeing other video reviews the battery lasts quite a bit before it needs to be charged. I think the last video I watched it was mentioned that it lasted close to 6 hours but this all depends on what you're using the laptop for in the present. Obviously if you're gaming and using performance mode or watching a movie then it's not going to last as long. I never use the turbo mode from the armory crate just because the fan is so loud when it's enable but I'm sure with the turbo mode it would boost the performance even more but I decided to keep it on performance mode. The performance is also improved by the fact that the laptop comes with 31gb of vram but it's soldered on the chip now so it's not upgradable but not really a big deal since it's more than enough for a laptop. The 1tb ssd comes in handy as normal when storing games and you can actually add an additional ssd to updated the storage should you run out of room. I removed the 1 tb ssd nvme m.2 drive from my previous laptop and put it in the new asus for more storage because to me more is better. The most significant improvement I noticed with the Asus Rog Zephurus G16 is the build quality. The aluminum chassis is durable and sturdy and the laptop is still nice and light in weight and size and not to mention that it looks sweet in space gray. There are 2 usbc connectors and 2 usba connectors. HDMI is included if you choose to connect to a monitor or tv. There's also a micro ssd slot for additional storage to hold even more games. The standar 3.5mm headphone jack is present as well for wired headphones. The trackpad is nice and clickable with great response time but I never really had an issue with previous ones. Another nice upgrade is the speakers equipped with this years model boasting better and louder sound along with booming bass. The keyboard has RGB lighting which is always a nice feature but no RGB lighting on the outside of the laptop. Instead there is a slash lighting on lid to which you can program different patterns to showcase. I did not see a RGB feature for the slash mark in the armory crate but I may have overlooked it or there is just simply no option for it. My overall opinion on the Asus ROG Zepherus G16 laptop is it's definitely worth the price tag with the newly upgraded features in this years model and it is definitely nothing short of a premium gaming pc. I would definitely recommend this years model to any hardcore gamer looking to upgrade. You definitely won't be disappointed.
