Customers consistently note the ROG Flow Z13's strong performance and portability, praising its ability to handle demanding tasks and games in a compact form factor. However, a common complaint centers around the device's battery life, which many users find insufficient, especially during gaming sessions. The powerful GPU is also frequently highlighted as a positive aspect.

I ultimately could not keep this thing, but man is it special. It's overpriced for the specs you get but you can't beat the portability. What's even crazier is this is still relevant vs the 2025 model, limited only by the embarrassing amount of ram they give you with this machine. Games run great, but set your expectations.

Highly recommended. This has replaced most of my devices. I have a Legion Go and an ROG Zephyrus 16” with a 4090 and the FLlow z13 seems to be a perfect compromise between the two, giving plenty of performance while being as compact as something with a 4060 can be. Sure, it’s not a full on handheld, but for the convenience of having this thing to play in bed comfortably, it’s amazing for the price if you can get it on sale.

Amazing Laptop in the Tablet form factor

Best Buy advertised as "excellent" condition open box and it came without a power cord and the keyboard was faulty, so was definitely overcharged since it was listed incorrectly and they said "there's nothing we can do" and just wanted to cancel my order instead of price adjusting.
That all said, the product it's self is AMAZING- the detachable keyboard making it a tablet (which in my case I have no keyboard since it came broken) is very convenient. I love being able to play things like Hearthstone on it with touchscreen. The battery life is kind of bad expectedly since it's such a powerhouse- but luckily I don't really need it on the go in ways I can't just keep it plugged in. Really happy with this device though and hope when it eventually dies Asus continues to make newer versions with the detachable keyboard style.

Expensive, but works great for what I do. It isn't as powerful as my desktop, but thats to be expected as a tablet/2in1. It plays games like Tarkov and Battlefield quite well, especially for a mobile processor/GPU. It's surprisingly quiet, and the keyboard isn't bad at all for its size and design.

Fantastic Tablet/ Laptop.
The issue with these is the battery.
I swapped out my 2022 version due to the battery getting fat within the first 3 months of using it.
The current one has to be plugged in so I can use it. Still need to make time with Best Buy to get it repaired.
Just the issue is I use this laptop for work so that sucks.

Love this little machine. Such a work horse for its size. I had a asus rog m16 that had I9 12th gen and a rtx 3080 and it trading blows with my New rtx 3060 z13 . I ended up selling my M16 i didnt need it anymore. With this form factor and size this is now my portable dally driver i take everywhere.

Bought this a month or so ago. Really fun to use, very mobile. I used to game, now my kids and I get to use it for just about anything. Touch screen is awesome, you can adjust settings for fan noise. Runs really nice, facial recognition, all around solid. Glad I made the purchase. I can run just about anything on it. Battery life runs out pretty quick if you’re not on top of the mode change when you unplug. I had a rog gaming laptop before for 8 years, I plan on keeping this one for 8 as well!

I got it with a massive discount for $1550 total before tax, and this is an amazing tablet, can run any modern game at high to ultra settings in turbo mode. Silent mode is great for the rest of the use, e.g. watching movies, browsing etc.
Be advices that Turbo mode could be enabled only with the proprietary power supply which comes with the tables. All other power supplies aren't fully supported, same as the docks.

The fan is incredibly loud even when running older games (Fallout 3.) The performance isn't as fast as I was expecting, either. The display is very nice, though. Battery life is very poor.

Was going to buy both a new gaming system and a new tablet convertible. This is both. Graphics card is a bit throttled when running off battery, and can only expect to get an hour or so when gaming, but lighter use has better battery life, and runs like a champ when plugged in. Great little system that has everything a desktop would, but slides easily into my backpack. Hard to actually use on a lap due to the soft keyboard design. Overall very happy with performance and quality so far after a month of use.

So far so good. Probably could use a bit less CPU power to keep the machine cool. Maybe 4060 isn't needed in such a small form factor. Also, Asus should make their power supplies more available. I like having extra.

There is only one thing with I am disappointed, which is that in the package(boxes) They did not put inside the Asus stylus at all packages was close and everything but no stylus. Overall great gaming/studio tablet, performance that meets or exceeds expectations. The battery it is as expected of a gaming laptop/tablet 2hrs or 3hrs of gaming depending on how demanding the game is. When disabling the discrete graphic card, the table can last up to 7hrs to 9hrs with the igraphics only; logically with the refresh rate to 60herdz/fps.

Good so far. I hope ASUS keeps on making more like these detachable gaming laptops. They are the only ones in the market that I know of that makes these. I can ditch the keyboard attachment for my equipment and save an enormous amount of space. My recommendation for ASUS is to make 16 inch one just like this but have it come with a HDMI port, 2 USB-A 3.0 and one USB C and instead of a attachable/detachable keyboard, a usb hub for multi porting.

A Gaming Laptop x Tablet dream!

A gaming laptop x Tablet?! One of the coolest pieces of tech out there! With its faults.
After reading other testimonials on various websites just a word of caution some things will stop working. Like the keyboard and battery.
But for its form factor and sleek design. Its awesome.
The other downside is upgrading it. And short battery life.
The only thing you can upgrade is the storage.
Definitely grab a protection plan.

Never i've been more pleased with a purchase, coming from a Surface pro 8, until now, I haven't had an issue. Smooth performance, hold lots of work, and have the option to play heavy games if i want to.. excellent device! Recommend 100%
