Overall, I would definitely look into the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 (2024) laptop because it seems to hit the boxes on so many levels, however, the whirling noise of the 3rd fan concerns me a bit and if you're at all sensitive to fan noise, I would say try it out first whether it's seeing it in store or ordering it and then returning it if it becomes irritating. The fact that the RAM is soldered in is not unusual for these smaller laptops but it's always a positive to be able to upgrade it yourself. The quality of the built-in speakers is SUPERB and in line with the MacBook Pro's. The exclusion of WiFi 7 is another negative but at least the WiFi card can be swapped out and upgraded. It's got decent battery life, nice port selection, stunning 1080p webcam and clear internal mics. Lastly, the OLED screen is gorgeous as well as the metal build! All and all, a very decent laptop with just a few flaws, but I might be nitpicking a bit. Excellent breakdown and review and Andrew!! 👍😁
@@joshuagarcia2868 I see, very nice! I got one already a month or two ago open-box for maybe $80 or so more than it's selling for right now, been loving it!
Manage to find a 32gb 4070 version for 1500 open box at best buy. Value deal at that price point. Previous owner supposedly did not like the OLED display and returned it right away. It was in pristine condition with all packaging materials.
Ditch AC and install GHelper instead. Tweak the settings to your liking. You can set the fans RPM based even on specific temps. On silent and with the GPU off and right settings you can easily squeeze 8 to 9 hours easily on this machine. Its more of a premium ultrabook with gaming capability.
Hey @Andrew Marc David , Make sure u've enabled the smart performance boost in HP omen gaming hub under performance tab and advanced options. That enables the 15 W boost to the GPU and my Timespy scores are around 9200 with the RTX 4060, noticing significantly better GPU performance throughout.
Picked one up today for work travel. It’s beautiful. 4070 32gb - almost 7 hours using my vdi without the first charge. Curious to see how long it lasts once I get it charged fully tonight.
bought a 16in zephyrus full loaded but returned it 3 days later.... theirs a limit on nvme storage soldered ram and its super finicky with thunderbolt 3/4 docks. I'm constantly on the go and when i come home just hookup my laptop to my dock wether it be mac or pc. Have a razerblade 15in and usually its just plug and play but with the zephyrus it was troubleshooting everytime and drove me mad... although it was nice for just a gaming laptop on the go and temps were pretty decent as well no complaints. just wish those bugs weren't there and the silly limitation on nvme storage.
i am surprise with the front camera and mic quality. wow. i think this is my go windows laptop next for my lenovo yoga 6 replacement. and oh, yes my only complaint about it is that the design of keyboard is a bit gimmicky, they need to change like in the new vivobooks. thanks andrew for your comprehensive review as usual. ❤
I finally got to see the 2023 G14 in person last weekend - I was considering getting it on sale for 1k, but decided against it for a few reasons apart from the 2024 model's new pros, which I do quite like (lid design, thin body, OLED screen [I'd love a mini-LED one but that's only available on more expensive 2023 models], great speakers, rectangular charging port). I didn't like the shiny, "holographic" lid, for day to day college work I feel like the fan exhausts on the back and sides aren't really for me, and lastly I don't really like the all white design of the 2023 model, I suspect I would prefer the 2024's silver aluminum design.
@@andrewmarcdavid I'm in the US though, and the only model available at Best Buy for both the 2023 and 2024 models are the white and silver ones. Only the G16 is available in black.

Wow, this is a great review, thanks! If you don’t mind a suggestion, you might want to let the fan sound play out without voice over, that would help with what to expect from the machine. Regardless, this is by far the best, most complete and succinct review I’ve seen!
Great review, it looks better than the omen in almost everything but fan noise and cooling for what I’ve seen. Are you getting a 4070 32 gb version as well?
Great video as always. what laptop that would you recommend for $800 budget, it doesn't need to have a d-GPU runs only on integrated graphics and need to have a ryzen 7 or intel core i7 / intel core ultra 7 processor, 14" or 16" display. Its for mixed use.
Hi Andrew, I’ve been following your reviews for a certain period of time along with other leading TH-camrs. Your reviews are long enough. Which is actually good for potential buyers. But I would like to ask you about some addition in your review process. - include live stress test with prime 95. And during that process, please show cpu temp, clock speed and power consumption. - try to do the same with gpu as well while doing a gameplay test - include some AAA title gameplay. - include spider 5 elite test - include some real close up shots on build quality
ehhhh youre not alone here, looks like that slim 5 is only 16gb today, which is not an option for me, other than that great laptop, even with 4060 no matter
I think probably the biggest issue for both this and the new G16 will be that high pitched fan noise (mostly coming from that third little fan). For those out there who are sensitive to high pitched fan noise and have these new unites, I am wondering what your thoughts are on this
This laptop with 48GB of RAM is now the same price on Amazon, which is crazy! Just might have to pull the trigger and grab one. Great video/review! Thanks for the video!
Nice PC. Camera and mics are good. Speakers are good. Keyboard layout is okay. Agree with you about the font on the keys.

Hi! Thanks for the damn good review. I have one major and important question to my eyes: how do look the games when playing at 1080p ? Is the resolution downgrade much noticeable in terms of image quality ?
I bought the 2022 G14 with the AMD graphix just a couple of weeks to early for the 2023 version and now the 2024 is even better. if they only would to trade in of "old" machines
Kurly Fry Why you ask that, are you not happy with it, Zephyrus, what is the need, why you should upgrade it ? Nobody buys them on fancy release prices, you paid more than $1000 for the 2022 model ?
@@lucasrem I purchased the 2022 model on sale for under $1000 last year. If the upgraded hardware and specs are worth it, it may be a decent upgrade when a sale comes around. I already like the screen but I’ll wait for more long term reviews.

Not as good as a gaming pc but it should be better as a student and more future proof. And did you feel the screen wobble was problematic in your case ?
I own the legion 5 14". Id say its the best 14" for its price. Feels premium and professional, really sturdy build, compared to the g14. 8w consumption on a 73wH battery gives you 9 hours of web browsing while at 80% brightness. For $1100 including tax, im really happy. The speakers are pretty low tier though.
Hello, I ordered the Asus ROG Zephyrus g14 device, graphics card 4060, AMD Ryzen 9 8945hs processor. Is the device excellent in gaming or design? 16 gigabytes of RAM. 2024 Model
The benchmarks are defintely not on battery. Windows laptops always take a big performance hit when not plugged in. If the thottling is an issue then you really need a MacBook which runs the same whether plugged in or not.
@@sally_face_jk I got the G14 2024 16GB RAM RTX 4060 at $1300 USD. At that price it's okay. Screen looks great, decent battery life, good camera, great speakers. Premium ultrabooks go for about $1000-1300 and this laptop has similar build quality (in a thicker chassis) while also being able to play games. It retails at $1600 which I don't think is worth it. $1300 is probably the most I would spend. You can get a laptop with the same specs (while also having upgradable RAM and better RMA support than what Asus provides) for about $1000, but nothing from other vendors like Lenovo have the same build quality.
hey, is there any 100% laptop final review? im thinking to buy one at max 1,000$ min 600$ but there are too many rehashed. what im looking for is for a laptop with +10h of battery, worth to work and a nice screen for view content, nothing special.
Is it the best 14 inch laptop? No. But it's decent, as long as you get a model with 32 GB of RAM. I think it should have started with 32 GB with options for 64 GB, especially with the RAM soldered.
@lucasrem First of all, I can actually make use of that much memory because I use virtual machines. 16 GB would NEVER cut it. (I've tried and they keep crashing because of a lack of RAM.) Second, I use a Framework Laptop 16 with 64 GB of RAM; I use at least 32 GB of RAM with those VMs open. Third, speed of the RAM isn't everything. Sure, some things would be _slightly_ faster with LPDDR5 RAM, but I'd take slightly slower but replaceable RAM over having not enough but faster RAM. And fourth, saying Apple is better without context makes you sound biased towards Apple, when they start most of their lower-end products with anemic amounts of RAM for the price.
If you're going to be playing the latest AAA games you will feel the pinch of 16GB of RAM within the next few years. Some games already are using +16GB RAM.
It's not best 14". Could be the best 14" windows laptop. Just returned the G14 and back to the Apple MBP as besides gaming, the MBP beats this hands down in all other aspects, just leaving this here so that not everyone gets swayed by marketing.
@@MyronZhao I'm not a gamer, so doesn't bother me if I can't play them. I thought the G14 would have been close to the MBP in terms of build, performance, battery and the cherry on top is that I could game on it if I wished. Sadly for me it's not even close to the MBP especially the battery life.
@@mas91-w1r when I purchased my G14 a couple of years ago, I was also debating between MBP 14. But I ultimately went with the G14 because for the same configuration, the MBP cost $1000 more. I also don't play games but it was a nice to have feature to play some older games I had. The G14 surprisingly gets me 10 hours on battery when I bring it to work to do productivity tasks or watch videos.
@@MyronZhao that’s great you like your g14. If with your usage you get 10 hours on the G14, I’m confident you’d get double than that on the MBP. This year the G14 costs more than the MBP for comparable specs. Cheers
The 32GB, 4070 Version costs around €2.500 in the EU (depending on the market). Hence it‘s hard to believe that the 4060 Version costs €3.000,- but maybe you checked the prices in some non-Eurozone country with a weak currency…🤔
the g14 got nerfed to appeal the entire market, hopefully though they increase the weight to last time with the same build quality, more powerful and charge a bit more while selling this model next year as well for those who don't want that much power
It’s not light. It’s heavy for its size. It’s not white. It’s gray. The OLED is not as good as the HP Omen’s but it is nice. The build quality is amazing 10/10. It’s a unique device but it’s overpriced.
It depends. The build is so much better this year and that means a lot long term. But performance is not better than last year so we need to keep that in mind. I think if you have last year's model, there is no compelling reason to upgrade. If you are coming from an older model that that, its a very good upgrade.
@@andrewmarcdavid build, design and an a oled screen is no excuse in my opinion. Performance matters alot and a downgrade is unacceptable. For me is just a stunt from asus and for that reason i skip this year and probably go Lenovo, for the first time in my life. Amazing products well priced.
**CORRECTION** There are 6 speakers apparently not 4
Even better!! 👍😁
We're reaching the MacBook territory it seems

Premium ultrabooks go for about $1000-1300 and this laptop has similar build quality (in a thicker chassis) while also being able to play games.
It retails at $1600 which I don't think is worth it. $1300 is probably the most I would spend. You can get a laptop with the same specs (while also having upgradable RAM and better RMA support than what Asus provides) for about $1000, but nothing from other vendors like Lenovo have the same build quality.
hey, is there any 100% laptop final review? im thinking to buy one at max 1,000$ min 600$ but there are too many rehashed. what im looking for is for a laptop with +10h of battery, worth to work and a nice screen for view content, nothing special.

Is it the best 14 inch laptop? No. But it's decent, as long as you get a model with 32 GB of RAM. I think it should have started with 32 GB with options for 64 GB, especially with the RAM soldered.

What laptop u use now, why you should use more than 16 Gb now, future updates you need ?
So mem is slower !
apple is still better.
@lucasrem First of all, I can actually make use of that much memory because I use virtual machines. 16 GB would NEVER cut it. (I've tried and they keep crashing because of a lack of RAM.)
Second, I use a Framework Laptop 16 with 64 GB of RAM; I use at least 32 GB of RAM with those VMs open.
Third, speed of the RAM isn't everything. Sure, some things would be _slightly_ faster with LPDDR5 RAM, but I'd take slightly slower but replaceable RAM over having not enough but faster RAM.
And fourth, saying Apple is better without context makes you sound biased towards Apple, when they start most of their lower-end products with anemic amounts of RAM for the price.
Do you feel like 16gb of ram is enough for AAA games?
If you're going to be playing the latest AAA games you will feel the pinch of 16GB of RAM within the next few years. Some games already are using +16GB RAM.
Can anyone please explain why is it in Malaysia this laptop comes with 32gb ram??? And the price is roughly USD$1900
does playing games 1080p on 2.8K 14 inch screen look bad?
No it looks fine. I have a 2.5k 14 inch screen IPS, looks super clear.
@@MyronZhaobut there is like big black border around it right
pls do it g16 next
Already underway
What about fan noise?
Did you watch the video?
is it 14,5 inches or plain simple 14 ?!
simple 14
Is not all aluminium
It's not best 14". Could be the best 14" windows laptop.
Just returned the G14 and back to the Apple MBP as besides gaming, the MBP beats this hands down in all other aspects, just leaving this here so that not everyone gets swayed by marketing.
What do you use for gaming then?
@@MyronZhao I'm not a gamer, so doesn't bother me if I can't play them. I thought the G14 would have been close to the MBP in terms of build, performance, battery and the cherry on top is that I could game on it if I wished. Sadly for me it's not even close to the MBP especially the battery life.
@@mas91-w1r when I purchased my G14 a couple of years ago, I was also debating between MBP 14. But I ultimately went with the G14 because for the same configuration, the MBP cost $1000 more. I also don't play games but it was a nice to have feature to play some older games I had. The G14 surprisingly gets me 10 hours on battery when I bring it to work to do productivity tasks or watch videos.
@@MyronZhao that’s great you like your g14. If with your usage you get 10 hours on the G14, I’m confident you’d get double than that on the MBP. This year the G14 costs more than the MBP for comparable specs. Cheers
$1600 is expensive? It comes at $3000 for the same model at Europe LOL
The 32GB, 4070 Version costs around €2.500 in the EU (depending on the market). Hence it‘s hard to believe that the 4060 Version costs €3.000,- but maybe you checked the prices in some non-Eurozone country with a weak currency…🤔
lets go
It doesn’t feel premium in person.
You’re kidding right?
@@andrewmarcdavid Yoga Pro feels and looks premium in my hands, in my opinion.
I have this laptop, you smoking crack if you think it doesn’t look premium in person
@@Hayvimo I have one too. I like it a lot. But it’s not the most premium laptop on the market. Let’s not get delusional.
the g14 got nerfed to appeal the entire market, hopefully though they increase the weight to last time with the same build quality, more powerful and charge a bit more while selling this model next year as well for those who don't want that much power
They should have two product lines: a g14 and m14. One can be super thin and light, the other thicker and more powerful.
It’s not light. It’s heavy for its size. It’s not white. It’s gray. The OLED is not as good as the HP Omen’s but it is nice. The build quality is amazing 10/10. It’s a unique device but it’s overpriced.
Lose the slash
that wobble is disgusting
Its glossy OH NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

This laptop is only average. Not
worth the money. Wait for next year. You are downgrading from last year.
It depends. The build is so much better this year and that means a lot long term. But performance is not better than last year so we need to keep that in mind. I think if you have last year's model, there is no compelling reason to upgrade. If you are coming from an older model that that, its a very good upgrade.
@@andrewmarcdavid build, design and an a oled screen is no excuse in my opinion. Performance matters alot and a downgrade is unacceptable. For me is just a stunt from asus and for that reason i skip this year and probably go Lenovo, for the first time in my life. Amazing products well priced.
