The Asus Flow X16 is a great overall laptop that packs in quite the punch especially in performance. Pair that with a beautiful 16 inch touchscreen high refresh display can make working on the go or at home a whole lot easier. It does get hot when you do try to push it to its physical limits so do make sure the device has ample cooling. Tablet mode also feels great and watching movies on the device couldn’t be any better.

Great laptop, writing this review on it right now :) the only problem is the speakers, they suck and im having a hard time finding replacements but these days im usually using bluetooth or headphones so no big deal.

Unfortunately this otherwise great, powerful, 2-in-1 gaming laptop has failed to be reliable. Regular BSOD crashes are more common now than with my old laptop.

I have bought many gaming laptops ocer the past 15 years and i usually only buy 17 inch, but decided for this I’d go with a 15 inch. I’m actually really pleasantly surprised with how much i like it. I wasnt aware they had started even making gaming laptops rhat foldninto tablets nowadays. The fact that yoyr screen now blacks out for a moment is a but strange when you plug or unplug the laptop while it changes pwoer modes is a little strange but not a huge complaint. The touch screen is super nice and reaponsive, games rub flawlessly such as forza horizon 5 with max everything on, and in tablet mode it does a great job at playing videos or whatever else you need it to do. It also has a second slot for an extra NVME in case you need to expand the storage beyond the sold 1TB. The ram slots are easy to get to as well for anybody who is wondering. My only complaint would be that everything goes through ROG armoury at this pont because its a pretty bad program and can fight you at times. Overall though, this is a great laptop and i would reccomend it to anybody.

Exceptionally good laptop to get in a sale deal, its very light and portable with 90Wh battery to get you though few hours of light to moderate workload and when it comes to intense gaming its a beast compared to other 14inch lenovo or dell alienware laptops as they limit the GPU to around 90watts and this can go till 125 watts which would get though most of the gaming needs and the plus point is having and creator laptop (touchscreen) and with a gorgeous display, would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a laptop which can do everything.

I'm so glad I gave this x16 a shot. The base nebula IPS screen is incredible. Blows my 2021 g15 out of the water.
I prefer AMD CPUs and was concerned about the switch to Intel and the affects on battery life. With ghelper and additional tweaks I was able to get power consumption down to a 10 watt avg browsing the web. Works out to about 8hrs of battery life. There's more potential savings disabling cores and downvolting. It has better performance than the same generation AMD CPU.
Form factor, build, keyboard are all excellent and better than the g15 which is larger and heavier with a smaller screen.
Gaming performance is great and it has a higher peak wattage 4060 120w than the x13 4060 60w. More usable real estate with little tradeoff. Upgradable ram slots and 2280 nvme slots.
Glad I made the order

This laptop is a dream! I needed something for college but also a secondary gaming machine. I had the ROG ally with the Mobile XG RTX 3080 and the performance with the RTX 4060 this Flow model has is almost the same performance minus 5%. The i9 13900 has all the cores i need for the Virtual Machines I'm using in college. The touchscreen is perfect especially paired with a Pen. Using Microsoft Whiteboards works factanstic. The battery life has been awesome on this thing. Keeping it on in Battery Saver mode still reserved great brightness and speed and im currenlty seeing 5-7hrs depending on my use case. Im happy i invested in this incredible device. Also, thank you Asus for using a Glossy screen, im so sick of Matte these days! The 240hz seemed unattanable but i play Overwatch and was able to get 240fps on this device with auto scaling and medium settings.

After much hemming and hawing I finally decided on this laptop. It is a replacement for my old MSi gaming laptop. So far I am loving the display. The Tb ssd is a 4x improvement over my old one so I have plenty of room for the games my family wants me to play with them. The touchscreen was a bonus, I forget about it, but Im looking forward to using it more once is becomes a habit. The RAM will probably be the first thing I upgrade, but it’s running everything very snappy so its not an immediate concern. I highly recommend this computer for gaming and graphic and video design.

I got this when it was 200 off. It is a great laptop I like it better than the g14 it is quieter and more suited for college with the more professional design. The screen is great and makes everything look clear and when watching a show it is very nice to flip it around to give more of a movie experience with just the screen. I also need to mention the speaker's front-firing speakers are just such a difference more clear and pretty good for a laptop. Overall I have zero I upgraded the RAM and storage and it was easy to do so with an extra M.2 slot and both ram slots open.

Obsessed with my new ASUS ROG Flow X16 RTX 4060 Ti! This beast tackles any game I throw at it with smooth graphics. The 2-in-1 design is a game-changer - laptop for gaming and presentations, then flips to a tablet for drawing or Netflix on the couch. The display is gorgeous, especially with some models having that mini-LED goodness. If you're a gamer or creative who needs a powerful and versatile machine, this is it! #ROGFlowX16 #2in1Love

Very good hidden gem of a laptop. If you upgrade this version to 36 gigabytes of RAM you have a beast of a laptop not to mention its a foldable. My only gripe is that the battery life is not very good.

It's barely crossed 1 year and the video card seems to be messed up. It fell outside the warranty by a week when we contacted bestbuy support team. Still not resolved so will update once I know more

I am a professional artist and streamer. For a creative, this laptop absolutely blows the competition out of the water. After upgrading this laptop with 32gb RAM and a second 4TB m.2 SSD, the Surface Laptop Studio 2 with equivalent specs is at least $1500+ more. If you're an artist, grab this laptop and a Renaisser 530 stylus and thank me later!

Good Laptop for all purpose use just 1 con that is you need a cooling pad only when you are gaming on high graphics or doing any other work on high graphics.
