2024 Zephyrus G16 - The Ultrabook of Gaming Laptops (In-Depth Review and Guide)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 чер 2024
- The 2024 Asus Zephyrus G16 is a gaming laptop that is incredibly thin and light compared to the competition! Not only that, but it boasts other incredible features such as a Gsync OLED display, best-in-class speakers, and a CNC aluminum chassis, easily making it one of the most premium laptops currently on the market. Specs include Nvidia RTX 4060, 4070, 4080, or 4090 graphics, and Intel’s new Core Ultra CPU’s. How do these specs hold up in 2024? Is it too good to be true? Let’s find out!
We'll also compare it to other laptops like the Razer Blade 16, Lenovo Legion Pro 7i, and Zephyrus G14.
I hope you enjoyed the video! If you did, please like and subscribe to help the channel out, so I can continue making videos like these (and hopefully put them out quicker).

Buy the G16 from Asus here: tidd.ly/4dREcks
Also using this comment as a running note for updates/clarifications/edits that I will add to as needed.
1. The "VRAM modules" that I thought were left without thermal putty at 20:50 are actually the LPDDR5X RAM modules, which explains why there's no pad/putty on them, so that is actually normal.
2. There is finally a 32GB version of the 4070 model in the U.S.! Only bad thing is, it’s more expensive. But you get the fancy new AMD Strix Point CPU: www.bestbuy.com/site/6583376.p?skuId=6583376
3. I’m hearing that mid-year units (manufacturer date May 2024 in the info I was given) have tighter hinges with less wobble and trackpads with less rattle.
Is the AMD Strix Point CPU a better CPU?
@@thomasbitsch5488 We don't know yet. It will certainly be better than the current 8845HS of course, having more cores and a changed process, but we don't know if that will improve anything majorly like battery life, performance, efficiency, etc. Haven't seen any good data yet.
Do yo recommend The 4070 with 32gb model?
Its the only one that asus sell in my country
@@frankmejia6961 i own the model with a 4090, and let me tell you this PC is build so lovely. It might be better built than my old mac m1!
@@frankmejia6961 yes that’s a great configuration! I wish we had a 32GB 4070 model here!
Bro the laptop speaker test section.........
Your laptop testing should be the UA-cam gold standard. No cap!
Thank you! Glad you liked it
That was awesome!
This guy is an expert
Your review is even better than the laptop itself man. you're born to do this!! I love this review.
Haha, I appreciate that 😂
Same thoughts )))) I think its the best tech review overall )))
Honestly, I was searching for reviews of the g16 and ran across yours and just sat and got myself super educated thanks to your thorough and considered approach to reviewing. I’m now a subscriber.
the hidden gem channel of premium gaming laptops! got an 2023 g14 4090 because of your vid. This 2024 g16 4090 is also soooo tempting.
It is very tempting, not gonna lie. I still daily drive the G14 but it broke my heart to return the G16. Can’t wait to see what they do in 2025!
I have the same 2023 G14 4090 just like you. We might as well wait for the 5090 that's coming either later this year or early next year.
@@FakeReal007 exactly!
@@FakeReal007 should be in 2 years not next year.
Unless theyre skipping lower ends one somehow
4050-4090 desktop should be released next year. Like what happened in the past it would be a year after desktop is released
@@amirulizzat2114 maybe not this year but def next year. There's already news about it.
keep up the good work. i love these long reviews like that i dont have to spend half my time actually looking for reviews. it also allows for more detailed descriptions instead of just repeating the same key features over and over across different videos
Thank you for watching!! Appreciate the comment 😁
dang a whole movie as a review
Going for a feature film, trying for the Oscars next
Loved the review! been looking forward to it for a while. Far better brakedown that than really any other review Ive seen. Thanks Josh for all the help you provided on reddit with answering my questions and troubleshooting flashing my BIOS.
Thank you!!
I remember pouring over your content before (and after) getting my 2021 G15. Your optimisation guide and later, vbios guide were incredibly well done and have helped me get this machine performing better than I ever imagined possible - now reaching 70-80 frames in cyberpunk with all maxed settings (with dlss and some unofficial frame gen as well, no PT).
The amount of effort you put into these videos is insane, especially the killer cinematic-grade visuals, and honestly the channel's criminally underrated. I hope you're able to keep creating far into the future, and I'm sure when I eventually get a new laptop (already considering the 2029 G16) this is where I'll be coming back to.
Really appreciate this comment, thank you for continuing to support the channel! Glad you're still enjoying the G15, that is still an amazing laptop!
Bro 😮 I love the speaker test section!
absolutely best reviewer ever, as a producer i really appreciate you doing an audio benchmark too, and i think it would also be cool to see export times of the project file if time fits!
Ah I like that idea! Sadly I already returned the new G14 or I'd do it with that one, but I will definitely do that with future laptops.
@@JoshCravesTech Thanks! :)
In the end of the video ,the comparison between the Laptops helped me in buying decision … u made it easy man .. u rock !!
Thank you! Glad that helped out :)
Thanks for the detailed review i especially like how you consulted users and dove into the technical aspects 👍
Really appreciate that, thank you!
10:25 Thanks for making the footage for showing us the benefit of anti reflecting coating on g14/16.
Appreciate your review. Especially the design and build section where you went into the little details!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much!
very thorough and detailed review, much apretiated!
You are one of the only channels to go this deep on reviewing these laptops
I love that
Thank you!!
This is the review I have been looking for! Great work
Much appreciated!
I'm really looking forward to the full review of the 2024 G14. The slimmer design is something that really stood out to me, and supposed decent battery for a gaming laptop as far as I've seen in other reviews. No other goes in depth as you, so keep it up!
It's finally here! I've been waiting for your review for a very long time.
Thank you!
This channel is going to blow up in the laptop review space. Happy to have stumbled upon it before it does :) Good stuff!
Hope so! Thank you for watching!
Man, now this is a proper review! Thanks. I decided to buy this one after months of thinking over and over...
And how is it?
congrats best review of this laptop and I've seen alot of them.. also love how you display the g16 - the angles and all.. wow it is a beauty.
Thank you!
You are THE BEST when it comes to these laptop reviews,keep it up man.
I appreciate that, thank you so much!
And I was wondering why Josh hasn't uploaded a G16 review yet and this pops up in my feed. Great video man!
Haha, thank you!
Looking forward to this review. This laptop is on my radar for sure!
It’s a good one!
3:41 this right here is why this was the best video on this laptop, I never once saw a great size comparison like this!
Really appreciate that! I do that because I know how I am, I love a good visual comparison. Helps actually understand the true differences.
This. This is the review I've been waiting for. There were so many points made by other reviewers that just seemed moot, and you really hammered in on the details that I've been curious about!! Subbed
LMAO THE SPEAKER TEST
Hahaha, thank you!!
Now this is what I call an in depth laptop review. I love it and I rarely give recommendations but I'd recommend this channel
Amazing laptop review. Most reviews of this laptop are pretty basic. Yours is detailed, accurate and techy which I love! Subbed. Keep up the killer work!
Oh yeah, and the speaker test with the speaker song was hilariously so good!
Thanks a ton! 👍
Super comprehensive review! Love your work and dedication
Thank you for watching!
dude, I wanna like your video way more than just once! thank you.
Really appreciate it, thanks for watching!
NGL your laptop reviews are top notch, keep up the good work :)
You make amazing videos brother. In my opinion you are the most detailed laptop reviewer on UA-cam!! Let me tell you why your videos are good. They're long but they feel short because every part is informative and entertainment.
Really appreciate this comment, thank you!
Been waiting a while for this review, let's go!
🙌🙌🙌
after long time saw a video like this, really well put and researched. it quenched all my tech enthusiast needs. i have asus vbois 140w on my lenovo ideapad rtx 3060(90w stock). now after 2 yrs i have revert back to stock since thinking to now give it a break for better life
WOW !!! My 1st time seeing one of your videos... and FRANKLY, you did an AMAZING job here. VERY COMPLETE and well done. I've subscribed and LIKED your video.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video 🙏
Great review! Also just wanna drop by to thank for your info on the G14. I got one, and I couldn't be happier! Big thanks. :)
Great to hear! It's such a beast of a laptop
GREAT AND SUPER ACCURATE REVIEW!!! Im one of those who has tweaked my G16 to consistently get 12-13 hours of web browsing, emails and typing some word docs when I have a full charge. The MUX switch has a lot to do with it. The battery is so good I typically leave mine charged to 80% and get about 10 ish hours of use. If I go on a trip I charge to 100%.
That's awesome to hear! I knew it could definitely hit those higher numbers! I could just tell by when I was browsing how little battery it was using and I had only done the basics.
Love this Chanel soooo much
Tnx❤
Thanks for reviewing this I was initially on the fence of getting the g16 4080 due to the hardware canucks review. Keep it up!
Glad I could help clear things up, thank you for watching!
Happy with mine
Great vid! You put a ton of work into this 👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks so much!
Excellent content as usual! Thanks Josh 🙌
Your power scaling graphs are very interesting! As battery life is important to me, I find the CPU efficiency being one of my priorities! So thank you !
Thank you! Glad that was helpful
Fantastic review! If you do a G14 review, some iGPU tuning recommendations with XTU would be cool.
thanks for the in depth review. subbed
We see a lot of work that you had put it, keep it up with you amazing detailed review.
Really appreciate it, thank you!
I appreciate your take on the fact that not everything a gaming laptop should be is max FPS or max performance and speaking out on other reviewers possibly giving out the wrong idea or impression about an item. I personally wanted an in between laptop where I had good gaming and portability, while also having good battery life, so I recently bought the 2023 G14 4080 (it was on sale, or else I would've gotten the 4090 - thanks to your in depth video!) You can consider me a viewer and a subscriber! Love your work :)
Exactly, thank you!! Some people don’t get it, lol. But yes great choice! The g14 is still my daily driver, such a good laptop
Clearly a lot of thought went into this review. The breakdown of performance with fan noise was fascinating. On every profile too. Insane data just on that one slide alone!
The VBIOS swap portion of this review threw me off. It really should have been its own video and not distract from the amazingly thorough review you did on the G16.
Thank you! And good point! I probably did dwindle on the vbios for too long, but I had so many people asking me about it that I just went full-send on that portion lol. Thank you for your comment!
You gained a subscriber :)
Something that stood out was that you reached out to other g16 owners to get more data
Keep up the good work
Thank you!!
Thank you Josh from ALGERIA !
Best review out on this laptop by far, great job sir.
Much appreciated, thank you!
I was skeptical about sitting down to a full hour laptop review, but you really delivered. Great review man. You may have swayed me towards this laptop.
Really appreciate that, thank you for watching!
I got the G16 and G14 2024, and they are both great!
I kept the G14 as I love the portability for traveling and light unreal engine work!
Great review my man! Just subbed!
Yes, the G14's portability is unmatched! I totally get that.
Yess bro!! Best reviewer for laptops. Been waiting for this one!!
Really appreciate that, thank you for watching!
Excellent review as always Josh! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Dang that speaker test song goes hard
The review I was wating for !
Yes thank you!
Wow, your channel is amazing! Your reviews are so detailed, and the memes are hilarious! Keep up the great work! Subscribed!
Thanks so much for the comment and for subscribing, really appreciate it!!
Nice review 👌
Awesome review Josh! This really convinced me to upgrade my ASUS Zenbook Pro 17.
Thank you for this incredibly informative review.
Thank you for watching!
This is how you do it. Love the dedication man
Appreciate the comment, thank you!
Great review and great speaking speed also
Thank you!
Another Josh here, who craves Tech indeed. So much dedication to this review, especially for being a smaller channel comparatively. It's going to grow exponentially, just wait!
Just bought the 2024 G16 4090 after my previous 9 year old laptop. This is what I was waiting for!
Excellent review again. You have a new Sub!
Thank you fellow Josh! Enjoy that beautiful laptop!
Instantly subscribed :) Keep up the great work
Thank you!!
I just bought this laptop! It was on sale for $1,699.00 with the 4070 ultra-9 configuration.
It has more than enough power to play triple-A titles and stays cool the WHOLE time.
Battery life is 10hrs while on power saving mode.
You wont regret it.
Instant subscribe from me! You nailed it. I own the G16 with a 155H and a 4070. Im also using G-Helper and thanks to you I found out about that GPU power slide. I can slide it to 105W + 20W boost. The 4070 is maxed out at 115W so thats kinda weird but the increase in perfomance is about 10% (quick tests in furmark). Anyway its a fantastic laptop. Thanks for the review
Thank you! And yeah thinking about it now, I guess that makes sense for the 4070 to max out at 115W because Nvidia’s voltage limit doesn’t really let you gain any performance beyond that really for the 4060/4070, maybe just barely
best laptop review from a real user. those 1M+ youtuber making claims without checking, just do fancy video editing. kudos to you
Thank you so much!
Thanks for this amazing review, it's literally the best G16 review ever! It's the first time I decide to subscribe to a channel based only on the first video I watch, keep it up man! My unit isn't as good as yours in terms of thermals and battery life for some reason, but I really like the G-helper recommended settings section, I might need to play with that a bit, hopefully getting better results, it would be very handy if G-helper supports importing/exporting settings files, as I don't have much experience with all these setting and stuff, I would just like to test out the settings files created and tested by professionals like you instead of me going through it all. Another issue I'm having with my unit that I would like to mention is the touchpad tending to rattle when I'm just tapping; it feels very loose and it's pretty annoying. One thing that I wish ASUS had added to this laptop is the same haptic feedback to the touchpad as the Macbook and getting rid of these clicky and outdated buttons underneath the touchpad, it's the only thing that doesn't feel "premium" to me in this laptop.
Thanks for the sub! And yeah, after gaming for a while the temps will raise a little bit higher. It's also 100% okay if they hit their peak too. As long as they aren't throttling and causing frame drops, then you have nothing to worry about. And yes, touchpad rattle does seem to be a thing with some people's units. I personally prefer buttons for a physical click over haptic, but I definitely understand why people like haptic better! Especially for eliminating rattle!
Great review, describes exactly why I own 1 of these machines, (it was this or a galaxy book 4 ultra) there is nothing this powerful and light on the market, thanks Josh!
Precisely! Thank you!
One of the best reviews of G16 ever. Immediately subscribed.
Really appreciate that, thank you!
Great review, just got the 4080 version!
Amazing review, you could not ask for a more comprehensive breakdown.
Thank you!
Great review, lots of points ignored by other reviewers
This, is a good review. Very well done
Thanks a ton!
Your Zephyrus reviews are so good ! Made me think if I should replace my 2021 model lol. I might keep it another year and see what strix point brings.
Yeah personally I think it’s worth waiting for 2025 if possible, but if you need a laptop now, this is definitely one of the best!
@@JoshCravesTech I don't need it. Its watching these videos/posts all day about all new shiny things takes makes my urge grow. I usually don't upgrade gen to gen especially gpu. Never was worth it imo. I have always skipped 1-2 gens on gpus.
@@pratyushsharma6655 definitely the better route to take!
This might just be your masterpiece. The work that went into this review is insane. Are we getting an x16 or M16 this year though?
Doesn’t look like it from what I’m seeing. There’s a chance that the upcoming “Pro Art” that they’re announcing in June could be the update to the Flow, but I don’t think that’s true. We’ll probably see a proper refresh for those next year
Ok, amazing review as expected. Addressed all the concerns I had and can't wait to buy it! Quick question: Were your optimal settings with the power plugged in? I assume it was. Thanks!
Yes, those were plugged in! When unplugged, I typically had it on Silent/Eco/60Hz for good battery life. You could also possibly push it farther by disabling p-cores or e-cores (requires a reboot though).
i have the 3-fan-model and the fan-noise in silent mode was definitely fixed with a bios-update. initially the fans were always running and in a quiet room you could hear them easily. nowadays they barely kickin at all in silent mode.
Nice! Yeah a lot of people were concerned but the majority of what I’m hearing now is what you just said
THE CHANNEL I wait for the reviews of when am serious about a device. Josh happens to have same choices with tech to reviews which certainly helps.
PS I earlier thought it was some random channel as earlier it was Josh cravey if I'm not wrong.
Thank you!! The channel was indeed just my name before. I changed it to differentiate from my music channel and make it more obvious that it's about tech 🤣
YES FINALLY, LOVE THIS REVIEW
Hey Josh, fairly new subscriber here. You mention at the last parts of the video how a lot of the value and appeal of these new G16s/G14s is their excellent performance in quiet mode, especially other thin-and-lights. As someone who hates fan noise, I would to see you continue benching quiet mode in laptops and ideally do some noise-normalized testing. Basically I want to know, what's the best performing laptop at 40DBs? 35DBs? Etc. Thanks for the excellent reviews and keep up the good work.
Thank you! That's a tough one to measure at exactly a certain level of dB just because not every laptop has manual fan curves, just their preset profiles (silent/balanced/turbo) so that's sort of why I go with the Fan Noise to Time Spy ratio instead! As that has always been very representative of what to expect in a real-world scenario. But I'm always down with ways to improve. The sad thing is most laptops that have a "Manual" mode are made with the intention that you INCREASE your fan speeds, not lower them, so it ends up having adverse effects, like on the Lenovo Legion. The "minimum" fan speed they let you set is too high and it ends up just throttling like crazy or running too loud.
@@JoshCravesTech That makes a lot of sense, thanks for elaborating :) I think I missed the fan noise to time spy ratio chart, so I'll go back and look for it.
This is such a great review
Thanks!! 🙏
That speaker test was wild. Upload that song.
Haha, thank you! Gonna try and finish it into a full song soon
Hi! This is the first laptop review video I’ve ever watched-you can imagine my surprise when I saw it was 1hour long 😂 But I sat through the whole thing, even the software segment (tho I had to do a lot of googling) - really appreciate the detailed contents with graphs and I’m sure it takes a lot of time. You’ve earned my sub and I truly hope more people view your content 🎉
I’m a uni undergrad, and my gaming laptop (some old Aftershock model) recently started shutting down abruptly while my game is running. So now I’m looking for an upgrade or alternative gaming laptop, and wanted to see if you have any recommendations aside from the G16! The only game I play is Valorant and I am looking for a laptop that’s ideally lightweight, not too loud, and not too bulky in aesthetics
i just did more research and have another curious question. do you personally prefer the Zephyrus 2023 G14, the Zephyrus 2024 G16, or the 2024 G14?
@@NightingaleFlorine Hey thanks for watching the video! Glad you enjoyed it. But yeah, all of those are insanely good laptops. If you mostly game on Valorant, then they are all going to be great choices. Another one I'm going to throw in there because you said lightweight and not too loud would be the ROG Flow X16. That one is great for those wanting a little bit lower fan noise and it has a 2-in-1 form factor with touchscreen and upgradeable RAM. That being said, you can manually lower the fan noise of all of these laptops and still have insane performance. If thinness and lightness is your goal, the 2024 G16/G14 are the best choices. At this point, I wouldn't go with the 2023 G14 unless you wanted a 4080/4090 in a 14" laptop, but maybe you do. The new ones are just so much more premium and lightweight. The new G14 would probably be my recommendation for you if you want the most portability and don't mind a 14" display. I know some people find 14" too small for gaming, so the G16 is the next best option.
Awesome review brother!
Glad you enjoyed it
80% of the reason I bought the g14 last year was because of Josh's in depth review. Every possible question I had was answered, an he continues his excellence in this review. I can't imagine the amount of time this took, but I watched it from end to end even though I have no urge for a new laptop.
Really appreciate you watching, thank you!
Wonderful review. Do you have any recommendations how to prevent OLED burn ins? Also, did you have Pixel Refresh Screensaver from ASUS because I don't.
I just had the stock Windows screensaver! And yes, just make sure you auto-hide the taskbar, use darker backgrounds (or just plain black), use dark mode, turn down screen brightness, turn down UI elements brightness in games (sometimes they have a setting for that), move windows around occasionally so they're not always in the same spot for hours. Make screensaver turn on after 5-10 minutes of inactivity. That should cover the basics!
can you do the same thing for the G14 (prefer the 4060 version) please bro, your 1h review is legendary keep up
That's a lot to ask for. Best Buy and Amazon have a really good return policy for laptops. Hell, if you are total tech with BB, you can have 90 days with it before returning.
Awesome review Josh! Can you review Lenovo legion 7i gen 9? Not so many review out there about this laptop
Yeah, I have a little comparison to it at the end in Final Thoughts there, it just doesn’t strike me as a great competitor when the G16 already exists. Except for the upgradeable RAM. But everything else about it is just… fine. It’s not a bad laptop by any means, it’s just bigger/heavier, has a power-hungry CPU that barely performs better than the G16’s, eats battery, discharges battery while gaming, has fewer tuning options, worse display, worse speakers. Again not a bad laptop, but it’s typically the same price as the G16 in the U.S., so it kinda lost my interest. If I got it on a good deal then I may review it though
Best review on these laptops.
Thank you!!
Yoo great video, and thanks for the shout-out ❤
Absolutely, thank you for the help!
Just watched this entire video this morning at the doctor’s office, great video Josh! And you have a new subscriber. I ordered this laptop the 4090 model open box (great deal from Best Buy) and it’s currently out for delivery as i type this. Thanks for your quick reply on the Hardware Canuck’s review vid that had me worried about my purchase and also bought me here to your detailed review on the 2024 Zephyrus G16. Im new to pc gaming and this will be my first gaming pc and with the power of this beast looks like i can also use it for Ableton Live,Photoshop,Final Cut pro etc. Do you you have any videos on how to set up this laptop for first time beginner’s and also a more detail info on how to set up Ge Helper. Do you recommend installing Ge Helper from the get go or use the Armory software to set up the laptop? Your reply will be greatly appreciated thanks.
Thank you!! I think most people are probably fine with Armoury Crate, but G-Helper certainly gives you some cool features like Fn Lock and custom keyboard shortcuts, and some extra tuning options that you can’t do with Armoury Crate. I’d recommend it for the 4090 G16 just because the extra 10W to the GPU is so easily accessible on G-Helper. Just slide the “GPU Power” slider all the way to the right. I have a whole video dedicated to G-Helper and setting it up on my channel :)
Loll that speaker test was gold
Lol thank you!
i love your content.
Greatest review of this laptop
Appreciate it!
Hey great review, would def use this as reference material. I like the 'no BS' vibe. However, I'm on the fence, get the 2024 G16 4080 or wait for the new 50 series GPU? Thoughts? I don't neeeeeed a laptop right now, but I'm missing out on play time when I'm away on travel as my current laptop can't play Helldivers and similar.
Yeah, it'll be at least February next year before we see RTX 50 series, so that would be about 9 months that you'd have to wait depending on stock availability. If you can wait that long then absolutely do it because there will probably be some awesome improvements across the board. But if you need a laptop right now, then this is definitely one of the best around. You could also buy now and sell secondhand later, although you'll definitely come out losing a decent chunk of change going that route as it depreciates.
This is top shelf review
Much appreciated, thank you for watching!
Great review, yes I will subscribe mainly because you don't upload often and doesn't have conflict of interest. I don't subscribe to any product review channels mainly because I don't buy a new phone or laptop every week and they all have a narrative they have to abide by to protect their bottom line. Still leaning more toward the Flow X16 for the upgradability and it's design gearing more toward productivity over gaming, I'm guessing they won't release a 2024 version, I'm okay waiting for a 2025 version.
Really appreciate that, thank you!! And I am definitely eager to see what they do with the Flow in 2025!
