The ASUS - ROG Zephyrus G16 16" Laptop worked as expected. Fast and quiet.

Alright so to start the laptop itself is very nice, screen is absolutely amazing, Keyboard feels great, speakers sound fantastic, even the chassis feels really solid, and lastly fan noise is good silent when doing basic things and can be loud during heavy loads.... Currently thats about were the good things end. Out of the box it gets decent battery life AC (Armory Crate) and the asus bloat can be very draining. However, AC for my laptop isn't showing PL1 or PL2 controls, which means the laptop CPU will instantly jump to 110w and almost hit 100C within 20seconds, and begin throttling, and if the gpu is loaded up the head combined will be almost too much for the system. (No Ghelper will not change the PL1 or PL2 either already tried). It also has a function to allow windows to control power but disables the fan profile so even on a balanced profile it gets over 95C almost instantly doing 65w on the CPU because windows doesnt spin up the fan properly for the load... Next problem if you use Davinci Resolve and want to render and were planning to use this for Cuda don't I tried everything and couldnt get it to complete 1 render on the 5070TI... integrated graphics no problem on rendering just takes a pinch longer.... Also had issues with it switch between dGPU and IGPU and not passing process currently to the dGPU on switch over when plugged in. I did have the whole system crash and shutdown mid-test on turbo mode so that was cool.... All this wouldn't be the end of the world except that, these laptops were supposed to release almost 4months ago and they kept getting delayed partly due to NVIDIA screw up with the 50series ROPs missing and supply delay. At this stage of the game the G16 which isn't a new line feels like its software is in early Beta Version that ASUS took previous years software throw it on here and was like no need to test our users will do that. I am going to give it another week now that others are getting the laptop but I have my doubts this will get corrected anytime soon, as I have seen the desktop 50series has been nothing, but problems and I was hoping the laptops would be better shame.... will probably be returning this laptop and either getting the last generation with a 40series or getting a Lenovo legion gaming laptop.... If any of the above does change and I keep it I will update my review.

I love this computer! Fast and powerful! Highly recommend!

I've been playing final fantasy 16 with clive. on high graphics looks amazing. just make sure your cord is plugged. also change your internet settings to 5g.

Great computer for the money I invested I feel like I got a great deal for the computer I bought and great customer service

Runs amazing and it has no difficulties running anything yiu throw at it. Tho it cans eem to get hot kt has really good cooling with fans

Just purchased this computer and it seems to be fast and well made. Time will tell, but seems to be a good computer.

Just gets a little hot so you need to plan for that but the oled display is great laptop obviously runs almost anything you can throw at it and is light weight well built

Great product to have when your kid is gaming wizard.

It is a solid laptop. You could use it as a portable desktop.

Got open box and looked like new works flawlessly. Amazing lamptop

Gray gaming laptop if you’re on the go and the visualization and the hearing of the sound is very immersive and it just keeps the gameplay just that much more fun and it’s a very nice machine that takes a very little room!

The product is really good, i dont have problems, im still configuring

Great product loved everything about it does get a little hot to the touch, but I enjoyed it very much

This ASUS laptop has been great so far. It’s fast, quiet, and handles everything I need with no issues. The display looks fantastic, and the design feels really premium. Perfect for both work and gaming — couldn’t be happier with it.

My son's game laptop. He had another one which has a larger noise from the fan, and is often overheated. This model is super quiet. my son love it.

Too much fan noise. Not good for gaming. But oled screen is nice

The Asus G16 is honestly an amazing laptop that hits a great balance. After years of gaming and creating content on high-end laptops—special custom builds and many top-tier models—I can say this one feels like a fresh and pretty unique entry in the market. It's definitely a premium machine, so if you're worried about the cost, this probably isn’t for you—and I won't even go there. But if you're looking for something that’s really well-rounded, it’s worth considering. At first, I wasn’t totally sold on its gaming performance—mainly because I was expecting a little more from the RTX 5070. It’s a beast, no doubt, but I think some throttling to keep it portable and cool might be holding it back a bit. That said, it still handles every game I threw at it with solid frame rates—just not crazy high rates like I initially hoped. But I stepped back and realized this laptop isn’t just about raw speed; it’s designed for a premium overall experience. It’s meant to do a lot, and do it all well. The design is super sleek—thin, relatively light, and easy to carry around. The screen’s a standout, with incredible contrast and color accuracy. Watching movies, editing videos, or gaming—everything looks fantastic. I kept calling my wife and son over just to show them how good the display was. The Armoury Crate software makes it easy to tune the display settings, with presets for different activities, including a night mode that reduces eye strain. Audio-wise, this thing is really capable—loud, rich, and clear across all frequencies. My first test was a first-person shooter, and I jumped at how deep and impactful the gunfire sounded. Definitely more than I expected from built-in speakers. Of course, plugging in good headphones or external speakers will give you even better audio, but these are more than enough for most uses. Performance-wise, it’s fast — great for video rendering, gaming, and everyday tasks. The storage is quick, the GPU and CPU handle pretty much everything smoothly, and Wi-Fi is fast and stable, making good use of my gigabit connection. The keyboard feels solid, with just enough travel for responsive typing, and the big, smooth trackpad really boost productivity. The software lets you customize things easily, making it a versatile machine you can use for work, gaming, or media. That said, a couple little quirks— it sits pretty low on the desk, so I wonder about cooling, though the vents at the back do seem to help. It runs hot when under heavy load, so I’d avoid using it on your lap without some kind of cooling pad. The lighting on the lid is a bit cheesy for my taste, but thankfully it’s easy to turn off. The proprietary charging port is slightly annoying, but it’s nice that it can also accept a high-powered USB-C charger. Overall, this is a fantastic high-end laptop. It’s versatile enough for productivity, media, gaming, and content creation—all packed into a portable case. Once I got to know it better, I appreciated its capabilities even more, and I think it’s going to stay relevant for a long time. If you’ve got the budget and aren’t just trying to max out frame rates, you’ll probably love this machine.

Box arrived damaged, but computer was in perfect shape. Really good gaming laptop! I couldn't be happier.

It’s a great product, excellent in every aspect, including heat management, display quality, and audio.
