Customer Ratings & Reviews

For what it is, its a powerhouse and a great machine. The only downside is the design of the heating vents. The vents shoot the heat directly at the bottom of the screen. So your screen is being blasted with 100+ degrees when gaming and running high intensive programs. Typically at the bottom of the screen is a daughterboard for the screen which has its chips and connectors. This concerns me quite a bit as im wondering how long its going to last. Short term, the reviews are correct. Im already experiencing lcd bleed at the bottom. Reason of mentioning, I think its due to the design of the fans blowing heat on it...

Main issue is that it has a single ddr slot and 8gb soldered on. Doesnt seem to be any way to set memory speed so its probably locked to the soldered in speed.

It runs great for a good price , it may get a little hot when running on full blast but the 120hz is great the keys are smooth. My only gripe is I wish I could have gotten a white instead of black model it seems to get everything on it.

This laptop is used exclusively for a 360 photo booth to render videos from a GoPro. I needed a machine that could do the rendering in a quick and efficient manner and this laptop did not disappoint!

Got this 6 months ago so waited to review till it’s had a lot of use. Runs like it did out of the box still, plays any games out there, majority of them max settings with some needing to have certain settings adjusted.

I picked this gaming laptop as it ranked #2 for overall performance and it's great value. My son loves such a step up from his Surface Pro for gaming!

Very good computer for gaming on the go or even making it your main computer at home. It will run any game you need and multiple games at a time if needed. Good purchase and worth your money go get one.

Got this laptop for $1600. Buying process was a bit cumbersome, but the laptop itself is pretty good. Looks and feel are great, screen is big and good quality. Specs are good for work and gaming. Overall happy with the purchase.

Great laptop for gaming. Only problem is that it only offers 2 usb ports and the battery life could be better. Overall still a very good laptop.

I am very happy this laptop. The screen is stunning, with vivid and accurate colors that make everything look more beautiful. It runs fast and smooth, with no lag or stuttering even when running multiple high-resource programs. The keyboard and trackpad are also great, with the right about of key travel and just enough space to maneuver without feeling cramped. The gaming performance is impressive, with high frame rates and ultra quality settings on most games (as long as you don't have ray tracing on). The only thing you need to be aware of is that this laptop requires good ventilation to avoid quickly thermal throttling. I recommend using a cooling pad or a stand to lift the laptop slightly from your desk or table. This way, you will get the best performance out of this amazing machine.

I think it’s a great computer overall my only complaint about it. Is the fact there is no keyboard on side only has the number on the top row

Great for the price but wish I would’ve got the 4080 just were out of stock. Happy as heck w it tho. Graphics are great w Nvdia if you play with them a little.

This is the best laptop at the moment that fits my use cases and criteria. I have been looking since last year specifically for a light, 16in gaming laptop that had above average performance components. I really wanted the 2021 Asus M16 with RTX 3070 (up to 100W), but it was never sold locally. I'm glad I held off other brands and was surprised the 2022 generation came with an even more powerful RTX 3070 TI that goes up to 120W. The 12th gen Intel has benefitted the battery department though not really comparable to AMD reported figures. I get about 5-6 hours on 60% brightness surfing the web and streaming media. I can't complain as I am getting this kind of battery life from an above average gaming laptop that has a 16in screen and weighs under 4.4 pounds! This laptop stays quiet and cool most of the time as I tend to keep it in silent mode from the Asus armory software. I don't need any performance or turbo boost when using the laptop to consume media (web, stream, etc). I like that it does not have a numpad as it keeps the touch pad and typing experience in the center. It does warm up quite a bit in gaming sessions, but I often use either an xbox controller or external keyboard. The noise is unavoidable, but for how thin and light this laptop is, it would need its fans to work overtime to dissipate the heat. It doesn't really concern me as I would have headphones on while gaming. The fan noise does sound like a plane is taking off. Its a higher and louder pitch than the laptops I used in the past. Not a huge fan of the soft touch material around the palm rests and am concerned about its longevity over time. The hinge design does lift up the keyboard for a relatively nicer typing experience, but inadvertently causes keyboard flex. I am switching over from a 2018 razer blade 15 and before I bought the Asus I tried using the much more bulkier 2021 Lenovo Legion 7. The Asus feels like the best of the two. Great performance like the Legion 7, but with the dimension and weight of the Razer. The Asus is actually lighter, but artificially thicker due to the higher rubber feet. Overall, I really like my Asus and its perfect for me. It is priced a bit higher than I expected, but I can't find any better alternatives that fit my criterias.

Really is a great laptop to use. I needed to upgrade and after a year of using this, I have to say, it's very smooth. I love it.

Pros: price cheaper than other options currently available. Good screen QHD 165hz Gpu can be overclocked and boosted to 120w. Powerful 12900h cpu Thinner than most gaming laptops. Cons: Poor thermal performance.Runs too hot, spikes up to 100c all the time. Fans are loud as an airplane taking off. Bios update has disabled any undervolting. Abysmal software support on asus website.

Best all in one laptop, light enough to carry around easily for work or studying and more than capable to play games on high frames !

Great for running any game out there. I did have a problem with my hdmi port not outputting 4k 60fps even though I used a 2.1 cable.

Great computer definitely an upgrade for gaming and any type of GPU demanding software from typing to producing music, great computer

Solid and still runs smooth after two years of gaming

The best gaming/productivity computer I've had. Love to game and compelte CAD work on it. Very powerfull machine.
