The ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 is an absolute beast! The 16” OLED QHD display with 240Hz refresh rate is stunning—super sharp and buttery smooth. The Intel Core Ultra 9 and RTX 4070 combo handle everything from gaming to creative workloads effortlessly. Plus, it’s surprisingly lightweight for a high-performance gaming laptop. The 1TB SSD ensures fast load times, and the Eclipse Gray design looks sleek. Overall, an incredible machine for gamers and creators alike!

Excellent screen and form factor. Very lightweight for the power it has. Wish the battery life could be better. About the fan noise, I think its software related than the actual thermals. Uninstalled armory crate and using ghelper. This made the fans a lot better

Simply amazing. Lightweight,slim great build quality. I use a macbook for work and this for gaming i feel no difference in quality. The keyboard is just the right size for me and the speakers are amazing for a laptop. Im able to run all my games on the highest quality (Manorlords, ESO). It does get hot as expected but a simple laptop cooling fan works great. The OLED screen has made me upgrade all my tvs and computer monitors to OLED. For the sale price an amazing deal! Deffinately recommend.

Great design and gret efficiency, silent with low power tasks but little noisy when running games, display and sound is amazing.

Runs smooth, plays any game I throw at it, very portable and the OLED is next level.

This is a nice laptop. It has above average average quality. I would not call it a MacBook killer. The track pad is big, but it's a little wonky. And you will have accidental clicks with it. The speakers are nice on this machine and the screen is gorgeous. But the battery life, no matter what setting you put it all, it's not great. You might get 6 hours out of it, which depending on what you do. May not be that bad to you. It has excellent port selection. With a full size, sd card, And the fans? I'm decently quiet if you have The volume up or heads at all. You won't notice the fans at all. The 16 GB of Ram. It's a deal breaker for a creative user.

I have never owned a gaming laptop before so I was a bit worried about making this purchase. I have had it a little over 2 weeks or so now, and I can surely say I love it. Yes it does get hot but to be honest its expected of a laptop of this size chasis. It is the lightest gaming laptop I have yet to ever see especially in a 16” size. The screen is absolutely gorgeous perfect for watching shows/movies. It runs Call of Duty MW3 at 110 fps with medium settings really well. Now battery life when doing normal things isn’t great, but again to be expected on a gaming laptop that draws alot of power. Only complaint about it is the non-upgradeable ram. Besides that it is fantastic.

pros: - display is amazing - runs any game (including high-graphic HFW) beautifully - gets really dim which is nice at night - cheap for something this powerful - good speed cons: - it gets super hot - you basically have to reinstall your own control tool (G-helper), the built-in one (Armoury Crate) is trash - you have to restart to go between eco and ultimate mode - keyboard backlight doesn't work unless the computer has been unlocked, annoying at night because you can't see to type in your log-in password - wish the screen folded back the full way for lap use - heavy - pretty bad battery life, not great for travel overall, get it if you know what you're doing with computers. might not be the best for not tech-savvy people just looking to game

[Employee of bestbuy] This laptop is basically built like a Mac, all aluminum thin, sleek, modern but runs Windows of course and can game! These new i9 Ultra's are finally a step in the right direction they can actually last close to 9hrs on light online use, but can crank out power for heavy productivity and gaming. This laptop is a Jack of all traits but master at none there are laptops that are slimmer, lighter, & more efficient as well as laptops that are more powerful but none that strike the balance that this one does. The cherry on top is the beautiful OLED display no game or movie has looked better than on this butter smooth, ripping fast, gorgeous 2560x1600 .03ms 240HZ display. This laptop is a great everyday laptop and easy to travel with it thin and light design also applies to it included 200w power supply.

I have been using this laptop for about a month now and it has exceeded my expectations. Setup was quick and easy, The performance is smooth, apps run super fast and multitasking is seamless. The display is vivid and crisp. Overall, I highly recommend this laptop to anyone looking for a high performing laptop at a reasonable price.

It has been a good purchase. Light weight is one pf its biggest pros. Gets heat up really quick but laters cools down. Screen is top notch.

So far I love the laptop. I was a little concerned with the fan noise at first, but with some settings tweaks and the right programs I think it's working really well now. Biggest area of improvement is it should have 32gb of ram for a laptop this nice. But I can't knock off a star since I new it was limited when I purchased it. I mainly use it for work and it has been more than sufficient. I'd say I'm most pleased with the portability.

Great PC for 3d printing and gaming! It can get warm at times but expect for such a small chasis. Battery life is mediocore but I am also coming from a Macbook pro. I was able to get this item price matched so it made the value even better. The build quality is great for a PC, as close as a macbook build that I can get which is why I chose it. I do regret not getting the 4080, but the price point was a little higher than I wanted to spend.

This is one of the best gaming laptops I’ve ever owned, it’s got everything you could ever want, OLED 240hz screen, 4070 GPU, Intel i9 Ultra CPU and the keybaord is so comfy. The only thing I don’t like about it so far is how hot it gets while I’m just browsing the internet but other than that it’s an amazing laptop overall. I bought mine for $1000 open box and it was in excellent condition.

I got this laptop as a replacement for my now 6 year old Acer Predator Triton 300 which had a i7 and 2070, I upgraded it's RAM from 16 to 32GB. This Asus Zephyrus G16 has been absolutely amazing as a laptop for someone who needs a business PC as I run an AI startup and this runs models and stuff fairly well. It only has one issue and it's the RAM. I thought 16GB would be sufficient for me but unfortunately it isn't and I don't think a laptop of this caliber should even have 16GB as an option. But overall, absolutely amazing Laptop. Amazing screen, speakers, battery life, gaming performance, software development performance, data modeling performance.

The design is really nice, it feels like something expensive but performance wise is a total disappointment. There is a serious overheating issue, to the point that the OLED display starts developing white spots where the heat exhaust is located, and overall the laptop gets really hot doing nothing, 75 on idle is crazy high, will go to 95-100 while under stress. The RAM usage is another bad thing about this laptop, using 7-8 Gb of memory just by running windows, I've tried both W10 and W11 and I got the same RAM usage. The Asus driver is the equivalent of Frankenstein for softwares, glitches, the UI is just terrible and nonresponsive. Another drawback is the lack of an internet port and on top of that they throw in the sh#ttiest Wi-Fi card possible so even if you have all the power to run games in optimal conditions you will still be fck by the internet connectivity. If you don't care about the OLED (which is very nice) I would advise to get something else as there are better options in this price range if you are willing to give up on the display.

Im a pc builder , gamer since nes days . I have a 4090 desktop but need a portable labtop for travel , or even if i want to be with my family in the living room . I will not go into specs as specs are listed , this is an amazing labtop once you fine tune it as performnace profiles dont align with armory crate and thats wny everyone posting bad reviewes . First install firmware 322 . Its a must to iron out majority of the bugs . Second unistall armory crate and my asus app . Once you do that install G-hleper . It will one free up your system ram as it doesnt use much its a exe file not an app . Once you do that you will be able to truly enjoy this machine . Also make sure you use not a labtop cooler as what most people dont know that this labtop thermal design is that it sucks air through the keyboard and vents out from the back , so you should blow air back to the system . Having said that best thing is do use a stand . Relative cheap invesment i get around 75-79 on the CPU in heavy gaming sessions and about 78-82 on the GPU . Yes this labtop will overheat if not tilted . The 95 watts TGP on this 4070 barely affects it if you setup Ghelper . I get around 6 to 7 hours on video playback , internet browsing etc on silent mode while on optimus . Higly recommend this labtop !!
