Apparently there's a widespread issue of this model suddenly get bricked upon boot on Asus forum (see Tech Notice's video about this laptop for details). The issue also seems to affect Zenbook and Vivobook lines as well, and there's currently no definite fix.
Typical ASUS. Super jammed packed with features but never thoroughly tested. My 2022 G14 still have problem with microSD card randomly not working, fan jump to 100% until I restart laptop, and sudden blue screen.
Macs and amd cpus are very slow in productive and content creation. Just wait for Meteorlake, 1st gen Intel core ULTRA CPU which will provide better battery than Amd and apple. Then lunar lake in late 2024 will be even more efficient and powerful than meteorlake.
@I_killed_that_beard_guywhy you purchased a high end gaming laptop. If you need excellent battery life so you should pick galaxy book 3 pro 360, Dell Xps 15 2023, galaxy book 3 ultra, etc etc.
We don't do sponsored reviews. as for you other guys complaining, we don't review non-gaming models but people still want to see creator laptops. We don't have time to cover them, so doing a sponsored overview like this covers our time to stop what we're doing and actually check it out.
I def noticed the one slide only compared vs other ASUS laptops and felt pretty darn sure that was part of ASUS' "promo nono" list, lol, though allowing for a few select competitor models that it favoured positively against in the next lol Paid sponsor's not a good place to get an unbiased view about a product. Homie gottah make a coin or two too, though ^_^
This video omits any comments on the very noticeable screen wobbling. It wobbles slightly when typing which can potentially be annoying and it wobbles considerably when using the stylus, which could seriously limit its usability. I think it's a big oversight in a review of a product like this to not remark on it at all, even if you weren't bothered by it you should mention that. Edit: Just realized it is sponsored. I know this puts you in a difficult situation to comment on shortcomings, but not doing so damages your trustworthiness.
jarrod makes it clear right from the start that this video is sponsored, and i never really take his sponsored videos seriously. it's just a laptop showcase tbh
Iam pretty sure he did notice that (4:44) He also omits other details like FPS (Nor any other benchmark incl Pugit bench) , Fan Noice That is usually included in his videos.
I mean, I mentioned the things about it I didn't like in the video, maybe I just didn't think there was enough screen wobble to talk about. As for full game fps / benchmarks, it's not a review.
Lots of people are having major issues with this laptop right now due to a screwed up update. It locks up and you can’t fix it. Asus has to get going on this quick
seems like a normal days work... Asus occasionally screw their customer, look at how they downgraded the ROG Ally via a "mistake" update. Honestly though, all brand nowadays keep rolling out fishy updates; Asus, Lenovo, HP at some point they completely make a stable bios to a brick in an autoupdate
I have been waiting this video since this laptop launch on the market. I bought it at day one and still using it everyday. Undervolt GPU on Afterburner 2520MHz at 900mV to gain performance and do not hit power limit. If you want you can flash 4070 mobile vBIOS from CLEVO (google is you friend) and raise power limit to 140W. Tested, works well but no improvements in performance. OLED screen is amazing (turn on HDR and play with gamma and contrast in nvidia control panel for best result) Still waiting for undervolt unlocked bios.
Good to hear it's going well! Does the actual GPU tgp increase after your mod? I suspect it might not which is why no performance change if NVIDIA voltage limit gets hit
@@JarrodsTech After flashing 140w TGP vBIOS I can reach 140w in some situation just before hitting power limiter but I have not tried more because applying undervolt is the right way to gain performance and reduce thermals for this GPU. I can confirm that there is not difference between 130W and 140W in games because power limiter (linked to voltage limiter) hit before maximum wattage permitted by bios.
where is amd's AMD Ryzen™ 9 7945HX in the 2:59 minute cinebench comparison chart??? Also i9 13980HX multi score not compared to AMDs score in cinebench which i believe is more than 34k??? why so??
Lately I’ve been noticing my colors are off, I haven’t changed anything that I’m aware of and it’s frustrating because I do photography and my colors seem different all of a sudden.
Unfortunately yesterday there was discount 12% off on the 4070 version. I went today to computer center in Iraq to make special order. I payed the money according to the price 2200 +350 for shipping. And asus removed the discount before the order was made. There where no time limit on the discount. So bad that i had to cancel the order now. It's just not make sense to buy it without discount.
As a photographer, I do wish I could manually adjust screen colours to match my print lab. I'm shocked that I've had this for almost a month and still haven't been able to find a way to adjust individual parameters like gamma, contrast, hue, saturation, etc. A great laptop but disappointing that this is so difficult to find. I'm still waiting for Asus support to provide me with an answer.
Hi Jarrod, I have this laptop 4070 model and i have very annoying mesh pattern especially on bright colors, probably due to digitizer layer. I sent back to service they replaced the screen still same issue. Did you notice something similar on your model? Love your content btw pleasure to watch!
Let me get this straight. You are obsessing over a tiny tilting wheel inside a laptop's dock/base? Dude, this is a solution for a non-existent problem. Any content creator using a laptop has an external mouse, that has a scroll wheel, which can do the exact same thing as this tiny tilt wheel. A mouse wheel. Viola. Same effect.
Haptic trackpad is nice, especially given how good Apple’s trackpads have been, and how much certain laptops would benefit greatly from one (I’m looking at you XPS 15 and 17)
As much as I dislike Apple's Macs, their happiness touchpads are the only ones I've found that I've liked. The other Windows-based options, like the Dell XPS 13 Plus and recent ThinkPads with haptic touchpads felt pretty fake. This Asus laptop was better, but still not as good as MacBooks.
Yikes, I don't know about ASUS anymore, especially after the recent update brick issue. I used to be a big fan of Asus, but lately they are dropping the ball. (Although the Laptop is awesome)
@@HassanSanemactually thermals are at 5:28, check timestamps next time 😊 it's not during gaming, but I never test gaming thermals, only stress test for reproducibility
ah, i knew this was going to be one of those laptops that's going to be twice as much as I want to spend I have a Lenovo Legion Y530 with a 1050ti and an i7 8750H that I got brand new for $875 -- all I want is something a couple of steps up for $1100 or less -- but everything I've seen has a screen worse than what I currently have, a keyboard worse than what I currently have, or is just SLOW
Bro, fwiw, I snagged an MSI Katana GF77UE 3 times (family needed upgrade) for between 1340-1450$ CDN from Nov 22 to Feb 22 Intel 12700k GTX 3060 16gb DDR4 (think 3200) 1tb ssd 17" screen 1080 144hz There's some solid options for upgrading that don't cost 3000$+ USD I really took my time figuring out what I "needed" out of the laptops and research what models fit said needs, then was patient in waiting for sales. 1100 USD should net you something nice and budget friendly ^^ /Ibelieve
Jarrod, good review. I’m assuming because Asus sponsored the review no benchmarks were offered in comparison to the Lenovo Legion pro 7I mini LED for 2023 because it performed considerably better?
I wasn't limited in what I compared to or tested, basically I just choose to do it this way when doing sponsored content. In any case it's quite easy to compare with my other data, as anything tested here was done the same as normal :)
I loved the Asus S17 2021 sadly i couldn't find one in stock , really loved that keyboard and airflow design , instead bought the M16 the keyboards not good for my taste, ended up buying a full size mechanical keyboard and replaced with cherry sliver
I think you can find some S17s being resold. Planning to get one later this year. Apparently people have had backlight bleed problems and weird fan profiles with it though, but I don't care.
@@TheAmazingCowpig i really loved the cooling design as it has potential to intake a massive amounts of air and a massive fan to do the work as the whole keyboard area is meshed.. would be amazing it could fit proper 4090 like 100-150W on that compact chassis
Interesting review. I think that Asus should have offered more GPU options. Maybe a 4090 version that is a bit thicker to allow for the additional cooling from the top end GPU. How is the touchscreen? Is it super responsive?
the problem with these "creator" laptop is it's too expensive. I mean, yes, theoretically, that hardware is great- but most creator job doesn't require all of them. And they should get rid of that pen support screen gimmick, cause it's useless for any creator (we use wacom, xp pen, huion,... no one will draw anything on a wobble laptop screen like that). Any mid-range gaming laptop with a good screen, nearly half the price is a better choice, in almost any circumstance. It would be hilarious to see anyone paying 3000 $ for a laptop do the same job as a 1k-1k5$ one
Hmm based on our notes it wasn't tested, I'd be surprised if it doesn't, but check the ASUS website spec sheet they are usually pretty good about listing which ports have it
I used this for a few days, and went back to microcenter. My main gripe, the offcenter keyboard makes the whole typing and using experience feel very cramped. I dont know who thought of adding a numpad in a creators laptop .Also for its size, laptop is quite loud when doing anything serious with it.
If it had at least 4080 or preferably 4090, it would be instant buy no matter the price. Sorry buy 4070 with 8gb ram and cut down bus aint enough for 3D artist like me (arch viz+mograf). Thats why im buying Zephyrus Duo with 4090. Really wish Duo was less gamery and more Macbooky
Why on earth can they not make an off white color backlighting for keyboards rather than bluish white? Its always bluish white not regular white. An off-white color would be really cool.
I tried to tell you when it came out in march. You said it wasnt gaming enough hehe. Been rocking this badboy since. Awesome laptop. Cyberpunk here i come, again.
Is the 13980hx better than the 7940hs in Adobe? I didn't see the 7940hs shown in the cpu comparison, and I'm trying to see if spending around 800$ more for a 13980hx laptop is worth it or if I should just get the cheaper 7940hs laptop instead with the same specs
Asus should make a laptop mixture with this and Zephyrus M16. This laptop's design is really good especially the ports. If they mix this two perfectly they may create the perfect laptop ever. I mean if we don't need voltage hungry bulky laptops. The solution is between them. 😂
What elements would you blend between the two? Just curious as I was waiting for the announced 3D version of this one from CES to come out and since it's vaporware I picked up the 4090 M16, so I'm a fan of both.
@@RyneLandersI mean it's my idea but I don't need 3D screen so the laptop u mentioned not something I'm looking for but good screen always something everyone wants. So I like studiobook pro's OLED screen. As specs RTX 4070-90 with HX processor would be good if Studiobook Pro body improves for better thermals like third fan in M16. Ports at the back is really a good design idea for me. Zephyrus series hinge design is unique but I'd choose some ports at back for clean desk. That's why I'm also looking for Lenovo Legion laptops. I want to have the best possible portable device for game, entertain, creation and work needs of mine. It's an utopia of its own but we almost get there. Btw closest thing what I want right now are Zephyrus Duo 16 and Legion 9i these days.
Would you pick this over a Legion 7? Asking as a designer that games pretty heavily. Also how long do you think the OLED screen would last before getting burn-ins?
Cheers Jarrod ive been looking for something like this, I wonder if they will bring out an AMD equiped one for better battery at some stage? Im having trouble tracking one of these down in Australia for pricing etc, they must be pretty new, no sales etc?
Hey jarrod.. I'm having an issue with my laptop screen colours when nvidia gpu only mode is selected... It drastically changes the colour temperatures.. And looks really bad.. But if igpu drives the display it looks normal. Its the Asus tuf f15 2023 i7 and 4060
Been trying to shop around for 2in1 laptops lately for travel and work, I see all the brands have ones in the 13-16” range, any plans to scope out their performance with the new 13th gen’s and Ryzen 7000’s? Not a lot of reviews, would be awesome to see some coverage! :O
Asus should consider upgrading this design for a zephyrus s18 next year; tidy up the back ports a little, gather all big sized ports to there leave only USB-c on sides, change the color to silver and add a diagonal brushed pattern to the back. Increase the display size and add a 4080-90 version. If they can also upgrade the charging system with GaN they could decrease the weight further. I'd buy this in a heartbeat
@@ArchisLikhitkar no; that model has some issues in my opinion; only limited to 16 inch, still uses the same display as 2021 models (they are amazing but oled is still ahead) and something about its design consistency bugs me; sharp display corners and rounded chassis makes a bad duo. And wtf with that trackpad? It's position is not ideal even if you're not into gaming. Yeah I know that I'm asking for perfection but please, let me have it for 3000+ bucks price tag. If Lenovo offers a legion 9 with the base design of 2022 legion 7 with better trackpad placement or Asus offers a zephyrus s18 with the design of 2021 s17 with white option they will have my money; I also expect other features like GaN charger but these are top 1 priorities for me. I want to see them offering my very narrow niche a good option.
The one thing I HATE about this laptop is that the page up and page down keys are part of the 10-key number pad and are only available with the numlock off . That means you can either use the number pad, or you can use the page up and page down keys. Not both. This was a HORRIBLE design decision.
is RTX3060 laptop still worth to buy? in my country for the same price I can get a ROG G14 Zephyrus with RTX3060 85 watt or the MSI Cyborg 15 RTX4060 45 watt, so what I should choose?
Plz i need your help to decide, i have razer blade 2080max q bought at 2020 should i get new 40 series or it will be fine to use in the next few years 😊 regards hope u help me
Hey jarod i wanna ask, i accidentaly drop screw to my legion 5 motherboard, after that i turn on in its still looks fine, will there be any problems in the future?
Hey Jarrod I have a doubt i have been using a 1650 laptop for the past few years is it good for me to upgrade to 4070 or 4060 coz u made a video telling 4060 was better vfm but my budget can be pushed to 4070 but I am not sure which to buy
Just be careful when updating the firmware through WIN11 update as there have been many reports of botched installs that "brick" this amazing but expensive Pro Art laptop.
@@JarrodsTech Pardon how I phrases my comment, but I'm pretty sure then the contrast should be practically infinite and not 1:1. Because contrast = highest brightness ÷ lowest brightness. And then it's written as the ratio of whatever the result is to one. In this case, this would be whatever the top brightness is divided by zero which equals infinity. So ∞:1. If your instruments can measures the brightness/reflectivity of OLED blacks (which will be infinitesimal since the backlight is off), the contrast will be an absurdly large number, maybe a million, to one. Good video otherwise.
love it... I would probably buy it.... its weird that the thunderbolt / screen is on the right where most people use their moue.... why not on the back??? also I undestrand the punch this laptop has... but 4 hrs of video playback???? man.... I expected more making the gpu fall asleep and using "e" cores of the cpu....
I can't see this being a good purchase for an artist that wants to draw on the screen. With the inability to fold the screen all the way so you can stand it up, it will be very uncomfortable to draw or sculpt on. So really the art book isn't an art book. Just another cool kids laptop with half baked gimmicky functions

I tried to tell you when it came out in march. You said it wasnt gaming enough hehe. Been rocking this badboy since. Awesome laptop. Cyberpunk here i come, again.
Excellent laptop sir.
I always love and prefer glossy oled.
Is the 13980hx better than the 7940hs in Adobe? I didn't see the 7940hs shown in the cpu comparison, and I'm trying to see if spending around 800$ more for a 13980hx laptop is worth it or if I should just get the cheaper 7940hs laptop instead with the same specs
Asus should make a laptop mixture with this and Zephyrus M16. This laptop's design is really good especially the ports. If they mix this two perfectly they may create the perfect laptop ever. I mean if we don't need voltage hungry bulky laptops. The solution is between them. 😂
What elements would you blend between the two? Just curious as I was waiting for the announced 3D version of this one from CES to come out and since it's vaporware I picked up the 4090 M16, so I'm a fan of both.
@@RyneLandersI mean it's my idea but I don't need 3D screen so the laptop u mentioned not something I'm looking for but good screen always something everyone wants. So I like studiobook pro's OLED screen. As specs RTX 4070-90 with HX processor would be good if Studiobook Pro body improves for better thermals like third fan in M16. Ports at the back is really a good design idea for me. Zephyrus series hinge design is unique but I'd choose some ports at back for clean desk. That's why I'm also looking for Lenovo Legion laptops. I want to have the best possible portable device for game, entertain, creation and work needs of mine. It's an utopia of its own but we almost get there. Btw closest thing what I want right now are Zephyrus Duo 16 and Legion 9i these days.
While it's not being referred to as a gaming laptop, you pretty much could use it as one, correct? All it misses is the RGB lights basically :D
Yeah definitely with these specs
Is this laptop better for gaming or zephyrus g16 oled? I think 140w TDP of this laptop compared to 110w makes a huge change.
Would you pick this over a Legion 7? Asking as a designer that games pretty heavily.
Also how long do you think the OLED screen would last before getting burn-ins?
The part you pushed down on the keyboard, it seems to be still flexing. Is its keyboard as sturdy as Macbook Pro's keyboard?
Almost all laptops do this to some degree, you can compare it in all my videos. MacBook might be less as it's a solid block of metal that's milled out
Hello, what gaming laptop would you recommend wiith a budget of 1000-1500 dollars. Also will you make a 2023 gaming laptop tier list?
Is the touch pad as nice as MacBooks?
Does the laptop support Dolby Vision or only standard HDR10?
6:04 mine screen doesn't flashes black when it does this
Greetings, can the core i7 handle 8k files on premier pro
Cheers Jarrod ive been looking for something like this, I wonder if they will bring out an AMD equiped one for better battery at some stage?
Im having trouble tracking one of these down in Australia for pricing etc, they must be pretty new, no sales etc?
Hey jarrod.. I'm having an issue with my laptop screen colours when nvidia gpu only mode is selected... It drastically changes the colour temperatures.. And looks really bad.. But if igpu drives the display it looks normal.
Its the Asus tuf f15 2023 i7 and 4060
1:00 - contrast 1:1
:O
Can you cover the zenbook oled with the 4070? seems like perfect weight and power laptop
Cinebech R23 I didn't see ryzen 7945hx cpu🤔🤫
MUX switch is actually so annoying that I always leave dedicated graphics always ON.
Advanced Optimus is the way
Yeah I'd keep Optimus on personally for quick sync but that's me
Is this good for music production?
Best laptop i have ever seen for photoshop edit 😁
Thank you for the review
Been trying to shop around for 2in1 laptops lately for travel and work, I see all the brands have ones in the 13-16” range, any plans to scope out their performance with the new 13th gen’s and Ryzen 7000’s? Not a lot of reviews, would be awesome to see some coverage! :O
Asus should consider upgrading this design for a zephyrus s18 next year; tidy up the back ports a little, gather all big sized ports to there leave only USB-c on sides, change the color to silver and add a diagonal brushed pattern to the back.
Increase the display size and add a 4080-90 version.
If they can also upgrade the charging system with GaN they could decrease the weight further.
I'd buy this in a heartbeat
Better buy a Legion Pro 7 then 😅
@@ArchisLikhitkar no; that model has some issues in my opinion; only limited to 16 inch, still uses the same display as 2021 models (they are amazing but oled is still ahead) and something about its design consistency bugs me; sharp display corners and rounded chassis makes a bad duo. And wtf with that trackpad? It's position is not ideal even if you're not into gaming.
Yeah I know that I'm asking for perfection but please, let me have it for 3000+ bucks price tag.
If Lenovo offers a legion 9 with the base design of 2022 legion 7 with better trackpad placement or Asus offers a zephyrus s18 with the design of 2021 s17 with white option they will have my money; I also expect other features like GaN charger but these are top 1 priorities for me.
I want to see them offering my very narrow niche a good option.
Please do one vid for Programmers and Gamers 🙏🏻
yes, so we can know that if we can play games with it
The one thing I HATE about this laptop is that the page up and page down keys are part of the 10-key number pad and are only available with the numlock off . That means you can either use the number pad, or you can use the page up and page down keys. Not both. This was a HORRIBLE design decision.
is RTX3060 laptop still worth to buy? in my country for the same price I can get a ROG G14 Zephyrus with RTX3060 85 watt or the MSI Cyborg 15 RTX4060 45 watt, so what I should choose?
This honestly looks better than most gaming laptops.
I want to get myself rtx 4060 gaming laptop, please help me,, which one should I go with??
When for the neo 16 rtx4090 pls ? Or neo 17 rtx 4090
When I get back from LTX
Are middle east gaming laptops bad for gaming?
Can one add ram, say, from 32 to 64? Very informative video, well put together!
Plz i need your help to decide, i have razer blade 2080max q bought at 2020 should i get new 40 series or it will be fine to use in the next few years 😊 regards hope u help me
Can you suggest laptops or which graphic card is best in laptops for smooth 1080p- decent 4k video editing under 900$-950$?
I'd probably be looking at a 4060.
Please Asus, bring us silver or white color options or this laptop
This is why Asus is the most innovative laptop company at the moment.
damn the screen is wobbly as hell
Hey jarod i wanna ask, i accidentaly drop screw to my legion 5 motherboard, after that i turn on in its still looks fine, will there be any problems in the future?
can you put 8tb m,2 2* so 16 tb total storage
Hey Jarrod I have a doubt i have been using a 1650 laptop for the past few years is it good for me to upgrade to 4070 or 4060 coz u made a video telling 4060 was better vfm but my budget can be pushed to 4070 but I am not sure which to buy
I have a 4060 v 4070 video coming up in a week or so if you have time to wait for it.
@@JarrodsTech sure i definitely will hold my purchase for u . I trust you 💯
Until it does the dreaded firmware brick
Best laptop possible... since there's a second m.2 port for oculink egpu, can you test that btw
Hey Jarrod, do you not find the vram a limitation for video editing?
Lets say i have 1100$ which gaming laptop is the best for this price? Ang im aiming for rtx 3060
Can you do a top 5 best RTX 4060 laptop video? Including if you can review razer blade 14 rtx 4060 laptop?
Oh, if only this lasted for longer in battery life...
Just be careful when updating the firmware through WIN11 update as there have been many reports of botched installs that "brick" this amazing but expensive Pro Art laptop.
Is Acer nitro 5 2022 with ryzen 7 6800h and 3070 ti good? for 969.99 dollars
Yes. The Nitro 2022 model was pretty good and it's the cheapest you'll find a 3070 Ti right now.
Can you make thinkpad P1 Gen 6 and razor blade 16 comparison?
New Helios 16 and 18 reviews coming anytime soon?
No, Acer don't seem to plan on sending us anything until next gen
What happened to screenpad?
So I guess it's time to move on from my Asus F15 11800H-64GB RAM ?My friend Jarrod ? hah Nice one mate
Can you do i5 11th 11400h vs i7 11th 11370h?
No sorry, too old
I5 11400h destroy i7 11370h easily
Please do a review for Asus Vivobook Pro 16x (Intel Version)
0:53 "Contrast 1:1"
What?
It means perfect blacks.
@@JarrodsTech Pardon how I phrases my comment, but I'm pretty sure then the contrast should be practically infinite and not 1:1.
Because contrast = highest brightness ÷ lowest brightness. And then it's written as the ratio of whatever the result is to one. In this case, this would be whatever the top brightness is divided by zero which equals infinity. So ∞:1. If your instruments can measures the brightness/reflectivity of OLED blacks (which will be infinitesimal since the backlight is off), the contrast will be an absurdly large number, maybe a million, to one.
Good video otherwise.
love it... I would probably buy it.... its weird that the thunderbolt / screen is on the right where most people use their moue.... why not on the back??? also I undestrand the punch this laptop has... but 4 hrs of video playback???? man.... I expected more making the gpu fall asleep and using "e" cores of the cpu....
can you test Ryzen 9 7945HX laptop? the CPU performance is probably at the top
Check my Asus scar 17 review. I also have a 7945hx CPU comparison against Intel
I can't see this being a good purchase for an artist that wants to draw on the screen. With the inability to fold the screen all the way so you can stand it up, it will be very uncomfortable to draw or sculpt on. So really the art book isn't an art book. Just another cool kids laptop with half baked gimmicky functions
2:06 are you kidding over there? Thats a ridiculous flex. So tired of money prostitutes on youtube, so hard to get honest opinions anymore
