ASUSROG Strix G16 (2023) Gaming Laptop, 16” 16:10 FHD 165Hz, GeForce RTX 4060, Intel Core i7-13650HX, 16GB DDR5, 512GB PCIe SSD, Wi-Fi 6E, Windows 11, G614JV-AS73, Eclipse Gray

I picked this labtop because I wanted to have more variety of games that I can play. I also wanted a laptop that can help launch my A.I projects. Evertime I load up this computer, I feel like I'm transported to another world.A world of vibrant colors and intense graphics. As a console gamer of 20+ years, I definitely feel the difference , and can see why PC gamers refer to themselves as "the PC master race." As a fighting game nerd, the 165hz makes it easier to react to those slower moves that you can barely react to with a console that's locked at 60hz. This labtop has the personality of an advanced A.I sent from the future. I wonder what the XG27UCS is like?

This laptop has been good. Good WiFi connectivity is good. Have not had any problem with connectivity. Since this is a gaming laptop the keyboard can have different colored lights. The gaming keys, qwerasdf are reverse lighted, so if I am typing in the dark it is good but in light it can be difficult to see the keys. Durability has been good. I carry it in a padded computer bag. It has a good weight so if you are looking for a light weight computer this would not be good. Cooling is very good for a gaming laptop. I can keep the laptop on my legs without it getting really hot. Design and layout is good. Monitor connection to based looks very good. It has a regular Ethernet port not the collapsible type in thin laptops which I like.

I absolutely LOVE this gaming laptop. I have been wanting to get a laptop that would be great for playing high graphic games, and this laptop exceeded my expectations.The download speed for basically anything on this laptop is crazy fast. It took me by surprise. I don't think I have ever had any "gaming system" that has ever been able to download Fortnite in less than 5 minutes.I also really like the changing colors of the keyboard and bottom part. The fact that you can change it to different modes is really cool.Overall, I would highly recommend this computer, or even just any high performance ASUS Gaming Laptop.

I purchased the ASUS ROG Strix G16 gaming laptop in November 2024 as a Christmas gift to myself. I wanted to wait a few months and give it some serious work before writing a review.I wanted a gaming laptop that I could also use for some work applications as well. This laptop does everything I need and more! I've used it on games like World of Tanks, Fortnite and Call of Duty. The 16gb ram handles everything with no issues! I've recently started using it for some astrophotography processing and again, it does everything I need with no issues.I was a little worried after reading some of the reviews, but for the price and since most of the reviews were positive, I went ahead and pulled the trigger. And I'm glad I did! I have always bought from Dell and I was leaning that way again this time. Nothing against Dell, I've always had great success with them. But, for the price and what I got ... ASUS may be my new go to!If there is any downside, it would be the keyboard. The function is great, the lights are pretty cool, even though I just needed them be backlit, but the colors are ok too. But the only downsides to me are the Q,W,E,R,A,S,D and F keys are clear which make them hard to see. I assume it was done that way since they are the ones used most in gaming, but it's just an annoyance to me. The other issue is I would prefer a number pad on the right-hand side of the keyboard, this one doesn't have that. But neither issue is a deal breaker for me.I love this laptop! I definitely recommend it!

My sister and I were both getting new laptops and my sister chose this one. Right off the bat we noticed how much smaller it was than anticipated. For reference, I previously had a 15inch computer and quickly saw this looked much smaller and I was correct.We measured and it’s approx 13.5 inches with an active screen of about 13inches.This was really important since we needed laptops that would fully utilize the cintiq 16 aspect ratio and laptops of a smaller size usually results in a smaller working area on the tablet.My sister still wanted to try and see if 13 inches would be enough and sadly it was not. It’s a big shame too because the laptop seems very well made. I’ve had an ASUS in the past and it lasted me a while so I trust the manufacturer. The silent fans really ARE very silent. The quietest laptop we’ve ever seen. The logo sound is a bit of a jumpscare when turning on the laptop though (it’s the sound of two blades), but I’m sure there’s a way you can turn that off if you’d like. We didn’t get past the set up since we just wanted to see if it was compatible with the Cintiq.Making this review so that other people know about the incorrect size listing. If you don’t mind getting a laptop that’s three inches smaller than anticipated then this seems like a good choice. If size does in fact matter to you then please look elsewhere. But also keep in mind, this isn’t the only wrong size listing. The Acer 17 laptop I got was in fact 15 inches despite the description. 15 at least uses the full Cintiq work area so I didn’t need to return mine but again it’s weird that you have to assume that what’s listed in the description is going to be off by two to three inches. This is, technically, false advertising.

Really satisfied with this laptop for its price value and how much it surpasses in quality and performance in gaming. However, the downside is how fast the battery drains when gaming but should not be a problem if you regularly play while its charging. Its not too heavy well.
