I’ve bought a lot of tech in my life, but this ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 from Best Buy is next-level. The OLED screen is unreal—super crisp, super smooth. Everything just flies on this thing. The RTX 4080 and Intel Ultra 9 combo handles anything I throw at it. Gaming, editing, multitasking it doesn’t even flinch.
Best Buy made it easy too. Fast shipping, great packaging, and the staff actually knew what they were talking about.
Honestly, this is why I keep coming back.
You guys crushed it.
Best laptop I’ve ever owned. Period.

If only the CPU was better

The laptop is actually amazing. Super sleek design and does great in games for its form factor. The major pitfall is its cpu. It heats up way too quickly, it bottlenecks the gpu, and there are stutters in games which I believe is because of the cpu as well. Other than that, the fans do get pretty loud, but that's expected. Overall the laptop is great but removing 2 stars solely because of its cpu.

I got this about two weeks ago. Overall, it been fast, quiet, and the OLED looks amazing. Unfortunately, I'm already seeing bad pixels that blink red and there have been a few blue screens. I think I just got a bad one and I would be absolutely exchange for another one if it were available. Since they're not, I'm exchanging for the 2025 with the 5070ti and hopefully have better luck with that one.

Slim and powerful laptop, I'm very happy with it so far, the OLED screen is gorgeous, maybe the best OLED laptop with these specification for the price, with the RTX 3080 (got it on sale)

Honestly once you get this laptop there won’t be a need for any other device. The audio quality is one of the best in the business rivaling the macbook lineup. The oled screen is stunning to look at and the chassis is lightweight and sturdy. It is a bit pricey for the 4080 & 4090 models, but it is 100% worth the investment. Wait for it to go on sale and it will become a no brainer.

I bought this to play. Not with games, but with local AI. In particular, local image generation using uncensored models. And at that it did a pretty good job. It's unfortunate that the VRAM is only 12G, but it seems to be enough to do some impressive generation. I'm currently using SwarmUI, and it's actually pretty easy to setup. Honestly, I didn't need all this power, but I have s feeling this laptop and I will be friends for a long time.

Over the year and a half that I have owned this laptop the quality went from excellent at the beginning, to the speakers breaking a few months in, to now the laptop won't even boot.

The computer would get hot enough to fry a egg on… performance was good but not as good at other 4080s due to the power restraints. The speakers were unbelievably good and thw screen is absolutely gorgeous! Ended up selling and getting a z 13 intel and nvidia are just not for me…

I bought this gaming laptop for my son’s birthday and he loves it! He originally wanted an Alienware laptop until he played on this demo in store. The speakers are way better than Alienware, the processor is way batter than Alienware and the price was superior to Alienware!

A great option if you want quality and a modernistic style. A truly great option if you want something less than a Razer laptop with the same quality.

I purchased the G14 4070 at first, but after reading reviews I noticed the 4080 was much better than the 4070. Larger screen & better GPU. As a longtime Mac user this is a Windows MacBook with better screen and similar speakers. I love this computer.
