Customer Ratings & Reviews

I recently purchased the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 from Best Buy and have been thoroughly impressed with its performance and design. This laptop is a true powerhouse, combining portability with incredible computing capabilities. As someone who engages in 3D rendering, frequent travel, and occasional gaming, this laptop has proven to be a versatile companion for my needs. Design and Build (5/5): The ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 boasts a sleek and eye-catching design in Moonlight White. Its compact and lightweight build makes it exceptionally easy to carry around, which is perfect for my on-the-go lifestyle. The laptop's build quality is top-notch, and it exudes a premium feel. I particularly appreciate the attention to detail and how neatly it is made. Performance (4/5): Equipped with an AMD Ryzen 9 processor and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 GPU, this laptop delivers impressive performance for a wide range of tasks. 3D rendering, in particular, runs smoothly and efficiently, providing the power I need for my creative work. Gaming, although not my primary use, is also a breeze, thanks to the capable hardware. Display (5/5): The 14-inch QHD display with a 165Hz refresh rate is nothing short of stunning. The visuals are sharp, colors are vibrant, and the high refresh rate enhances the overall viewing experience, whether I'm working on complex 3D models or enjoying some gaming during my downtime. Battery Life (4/5): Considering the power-packed hardware, the battery life is respectable. I get around 6-7 hours of usage on average, which is decent for a laptop of this caliber. However, it's important to note that heavy tasks like 3D rendering will naturally drain the battery more quickly. Connectivity (3/5): Now, let's address the one downside I've encountered with this laptop—the Wi-Fi card. While the laptop is equipped with Wi-Fi 6, I've noticed that the Wi-Fi card's performance isn't up to par with the rest of the hardware. For someone who relies on a stable and fast internet connection, this can be a bit frustrating. I would recommend considering upgrading the Wi-Fi card for better connectivity. In conclusion, the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 is a fantastic laptop that caters to professionals and gamers alike. Its remarkable design, powerful performance, and stunning display make it a compelling choice for a variety of tasks. However, the subpar Wi-Fi card is a minor drawback that potential buyers should be aware of. With a simple upgrade in that department, this laptop would be virtually flawless. Overall, I am delighted with my purchase, and it has greatly enhanced my productivity and entertainment experience on the go. If you can overlook the Wi-Fi card issue or are willing to invest in an upgrade, the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 is an excellent choice for a portable powerhouse.

I’ve owned many computers. And this fits every need. I love the size, performance and battery life. You won’t regret this purchase! I upgraded the ram by adding a 16gb stick in making it 32 gb and upgraded the storage to a 1tb ssd. This laptop unlike others is easy to get into and fix. Display is amazing! I play with a laptop stand and a little fan to help with cooling and I’ve had no issues at all with cooling!

Very high performance for such a small machine, looks cool and has a magnesium alloy chassis. Handles everything I’ve thrown at it but it does get volcanically hot, doesn’t bother me but makes me question the lifespan. Other than that it’s perfect for me going to college and gaming, battery life is amazing too. Wouldn’t pay the retail 1600 though, it doesn’t have enough power to justify that. 1,100 on sale is perfect. You can get more powerful laptops for that price but it won’t be in such a small form factor, this is a laptop for someone with portability as the main priority but doesn’t want to sacrifice much power to get it

Pros: This is an awesome laptop with great preformance and good (its a gaming laptop) battery life. The first thing I did was to run cinebench r23 and she goes! I have yet to actually utilize 100% of the cpu in any daily task or game, perfect for future proofing. The rtx 4060 is a small monster that can play most of my steam library at native res high settings. The last pro would be the battery life. It is better than 95% of all the other gaming laptops, at least on battery saving. I would point you toward Jarodd's tech (i think) if you want a much fuller review. Ok. Lastly, ITS WHITE! the color is kinda nice but, oh boy, have a microfiber cloth to go. And it is small (in a good way). Cons: Price. I got it on sale. Thank goodness. Also, when the gpu starts to get to about 75-80 degrees c, the fans sound like an f-22 doing a flyover 50 ft from the ground. However, the fans don't scream (pitch), which makes the noise MUCH more bearable. I had a chromebook before this fellow and its fan (yes, one) had the ability to act as a dog whistle. Summary: Very good. Buy if you like a snazzy laptop that can fit snuggly in your bag. I wish there was a darker color that didn't attract all the pencil lead in your bag.

This laptop can run RDR2 with high to ultra settings and have more than 70 fps with DLSS enabled. 4060 is more than capable of running games at 1600p. CPU is even faster compare to GPU. It is very light weight, easy to carry around. I usually get around 7 to 8 hours of battery when DGPU is disabled. Please note that the resolution is 2560*1600 with 16:10 aspect ratio. Most games support 16:10 but you have to use 16:9 for games that don’t support it. The display is beautiful even though it’s not OLED. The stereo is great with built in dolby atoms. The fan noise can get a bit loud during gameplay with turbo mode but it’s not a deal breaker. 512gb SSD is relatively small which is the only downside of this model. And there is only one SSD slot so you have to swap it to have a larger SSD. Overall it has great performance and you should pick one up when it’s on sale.

While I've got a solid desktop for my main work at home, having something reasonably portable and capable when traveling was what I was looking for here. My previous laptop was a 2016 Razer Blade 14, which served me well (until the battery gave up), so a similar sized and reasonably powerful machine was what I was looking for (without the major cost of a Razer device). Battery life is solid. Being a secondary device, I primarily was charging it very infrequently (~ 1 time a week or so), and even when I was using it for web and work related tasks, it had plenty of life for what I needed (Windows reported as high as 13hrs, but I wasn't too sure about that). Gaming Performance was reasonable for the games that I'd keep on a travel device (a mix of singleplayer and multiplayer mainstream titles). It is a little jarring when the computer switches from the AMD integrated GPU to the Nvidia GPU as the screen goes black briefly when it switches over. Keyboard feels pretty good for typing, good key-travel and feel. And the trackpad is nice, felt pretty reasonable (though I daily drive plugging in a mouse) Upgradeability is acceptable with 1 DDR5 SO-DIMM slot available and you can change out the stock NVME SSD with a larger capacity one. ASUS has pretty solid documentation on how to do these upgrades on their support site (both upgrades I did on my own). Note: the stock RAM on the machine is soldered onto the mainboard. I/O is reasonable for a laptop this size, no complaints here. The webcam has Windows Hello facial recognition which is nice, and does 1080p video which is also nice. I'm not a huge fan of the power adapter plugging in midway on the left side of the chassis, though that is due to their design of the display and the cooling system taking up the back half of the chassis. It's manageable none the less. I would have preferred the power adapter plugging in further back on the chassis. Speaking of the power adapter, a 240W power adapter is pretty chunky, so do have some room for that in your bag. All things considered so far, I really like this laptop for the feature set and price. Get some hands on time if it's at a local store. Cool things for future iterations Would be nice if USB-C PD 240W existed and the charger used USB-C for charging rather than the barrel jack.

An Incredible Gaming and Productivity Powerhouse – Worth Every Penny! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I've been using the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (Moonlight White) for a while now, and I can confidently say it's one of the best gaming and productivity laptops I’ve ever owned. Whether I’m gaming, working, or multitasking, this machine handles everything effortlessly with its AMD Ryzen 9 processor and NVIDIA RTX 4060 GPU. Performance: The Ryzen 9 CPU and RTX 4060 deliver a blazing-fast experience across the board. Games run buttery smooth, even at high settings, and demanding tasks like video editing or 3D rendering don’t slow it down at all. Plus, the 165Hz QHD display makes everything look insanely crisp and fluid. Design & Build: The Moonlight White finish gives it a sleek and premium look, and the build quality is sturdy yet lightweight for a gaming laptop. It’s compact and easy to carry, making it great for travel or remote work without sacrificing power. Battery Life: For a gaming laptop, battery life is surprisingly good. While gaming obviously drains it faster, I can get around 8-10 hours of light use (web browsing, media, etc.), which is way better than most gaming laptops. Cooling & Noise: The cooling system is solid, and even under load, the fans aren’t obnoxiously loud like some other gaming laptops. It stays cool during extended gaming sessions, which is impressive for such a powerful, compact device. Final Thoughts: This laptop is an absolute beast for gaming, content creation, and productivity. If you’re looking for a powerful, stylish, and portable gaming laptop, the ROG Zephyrus G14 is 100% worth it. Easily one of the best purchases I’ve made! Would I recommend it? Absolutely!

Fast, reliable, great battery, and an amazing screen. Bought it as our home computer with an ability to play video games. We’re loving it and would highly recommend this pc to anyone. For the right price you get a lot of high end equipment. I upgraded storage to 2TB 960 evo hard drive and added additional 16gb of ram. It’s extremely fast now.

The 2023 ASUS G14 with RTX 4060 has been a perfect choice for me as a college student. Its impressive performance handles everything I throw at it, from heavy multitasking to gaming and graphic-intensive tasks. The RTX 4060 ensures smooth gameplay and quick rendering times, while the Ryzen 9 cpu is great for my workload. One of the standout features is the battery life—it’s amazing! I can go 9+ hours or a full day of classes without worrying about it dying unlike my(ahem HP). It is alsp sooo light. How do you do it Asus??

This laptop is very good, use it specially for coding, but also on games. Battery and charging is excellent, but not long while playing AAA games. Awesome how the fans can be changed to a certain speed, and how smooth it runs on high quality. Siege works PERFECT on max settings, just be aware to keep an eye on the battery. It does heat up fast, so make sure to open it all the way.

This is my first gaming laptop. I was able to grab it while it was on sale. Currently, for the full price, I'd almost say go with the 2024 version... I'm super impressed with the performance this little guy has. I grabbed a 2TB SSD to swap out before I booted it up, and it was a smooth install. Being able to install the OS from the BIOS was pretty easy. There's been some issues I've read about on here, but just make sure the date & time are correct and you should be good to go. It's done great with every game I've thrown at it. It even is able to run some my old gaming PC couldn't. I'm still trying to tweak things with the battery, trying to maximize battery life. I do recommend getting rid of a few bloatware apps, and installing G-Helper. I also noticed that the front facing camera is 1080p, even though in the specs it's listed as 720p.

Performance and battery have been great so far I can easily get 9-10 hours of video playback without dimming the display all the way down, and the ability to disable dGPU without requiring a restart is a must-have feature. I would also recommend upgrading the ram to 32GBs or more as there is an empty SODIMM slot.

Great laptop for gaming. It’s very light. I take it to my classes. Has a good battery life and is really portable.

It does everything I need it to do and exceeded what I expected. Good battery life considering the specs. I can run almost every game I play at max graphics with some in the high 90's and most well over 130. Great for studio work with an extra display. One problem is the thermals the top sometimes gets so hot its kinda hard to touch without it being seriously uncomfortable. It never affected my typing experice though since the keyboard stays decently cool. I'm very happy with this purchase and strongly reccomend anyone looking for a good price to perfomance for high end laptops. screen gets very bright and looks great. It gets noisy but all gaming laptops do. Lot's of cool details in the design of this laptop.

I love this laptop! It’s super fast for gaming and multitasking, with a Ryzen 9 CPU and an RTX 4060 GPU. The screen is amazing, with 165Hz refresh rate and QHD resolution. The AniMe Matrix LED on the back is so cool. The laptop is light and has a long battery life. The design is sleek and classy, with a white metal body.

Amazing laptop really quick and the battery is really good.

Perfect mesh between performance and practicality. Handles basically any game really well, has ok battery life, and isnt a huge tacky rgb ridden laptop

If you are looking for a light, portable gaming & daily work (media editing) laptop then this is it! Great specs, awesome battery life, good price. I use as a daily work (audio engineer, media editor) laptop and of course I do game a bit on it in my free time. Performance per dollar is insane. Yes, ssd is a bit small but an easy upgrade which still makes this laptop a great value.

It is excellent, I can play every game in ultra settings with 60+fps, it is very portable, and has a good battery for daily use.

I like it very much. Very powerful, power efficient device. I liked everything about it EXCEPT It has some issues with display. The screen itself is awesome, but because it has 2k resolution, it has some issues with apps that are not optimized for that(quite a lot of apps). You will have to set high DPI settings for each app that didn't work well(. But overall, I totally recommend it. Battery life after some optimization lasts very long.
