@@ricarmig Something doesnt add up with these numbers... If a panel can cover 120% sRGB, 100% DCI-P3, it should do better than 88% Adobe RGB.. while DCI-p3 does not cover all pf AdobeRGB, it still covers the majority. I have a hard time believing it would only be 88%. Also, what was not covered was the deltaE, but OLEDs usually pass that with flying colors (pun unintended) anyways. On the other hand, AdobeRGB is intended for prints, DCI-P3 for digital and cinema. So in that regard not a big deal. But I just googled, and they shold be almost the same. So 88% AdobeRGB makes no sense
I do not get why 60hz is such a big deal for many of you. You can still connect it to external display and in everyday usage you would do that because 13" is so small to do any meaningful graphic work unless travelling and in that case i feel 60Hz has to be just enough.
Thanks for probably the 1st video review of P13, came here after finishing the written review. It is really amazing that how much power this small Ultrabook can put against the competitors while still providing decent battery life, good temps and decent noise level in most scenarios. Personally I would prefer these kind of system where the CPU power limit is not restricted due to the sub-par cooling system and super thin design. The higher maximum wattage allows us to use it as we like as I think Asus software or there are tons of 3rd party software which can be used to restrict the power to the CPU. Hopefully X13 2-in-1 will be refreshed with similar hardware and power limit but with a higher refresh rate OLED panel. I guess there not many 13.3" OLED screen available with higher refresh rate to go with and hence Asus has to settle with the 60 Hz version.
Bought the 4060 version and returned it the same day. The pen and the pen digitizer are by far the worst I've used, can't even take notes on it, it keeps "cutting". The 60Hz is unbearable at that price. The touchpad is unacceptable at that price, it's usable, but that's it. It's very mushy and easy to lose control while dragging. The speakers are average. The battery life seemed okay. The power modes were pretty good. Whisper mode would still give good FPS for CS2 with low fan noise. Can't use performance mode with a 100W USB-PD charger connected so you need its brick to be able to use it. Would only recommend if you really *need* that kind of performance in a such a small chassis for some reason, but forget using the pen and bring a mouse. But overall I wouldn't recommend it at all, you'd be better to compromise on the size and weight than the actual usability of the device. I had installed all latest updates (WIndows updates + ASUS stuff). Oh, also, so many "management apps"! At least two from ASUS, + AMD, + NVIDIA, + Dolby, etc. No wonder why most people buy Surface or MacBook, the experience of mixed components isn't pleasant. For any real mobile productivity, nothing beats the MBP unfortunately. But I don't like MacOS. So I'd rather use something like a Slim 7x and remote desktop to my desktop workstation, but I understand that's not for everyone.
@@dirkfunk8053 tbh I used to consume a lot of reviews from big channels but 99% of the time they give overwhelmingly good reviews to literally e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g. It's easy when it's not your own money and that you're heavily incentivized to keep your sponsorship going. They'll overweight the pros and go very quickly over the cons. Look at this video for example, he barely talks about the pen for less than 10 seconds, same for the touchpad, the software from all these different companies, etc. And these are all aspects of this laptop that are extremely underwhelming for the price. He does spend a bunch of time on synthetic benchmarks that have little to no actual values. I appreciate the summary of the different sources of data but that should be no more than 1 minute of the video, and I can pause if I want. We're always presented with an overwhelming amount of numbers while what really matters is the overall feeling of the machine for the price paid. When you buy an expensive MacBook Pro, you pay for something wholesome that works really well. And everyone agrees. Same goes for an iPad, a Tab S Series, most of flagship Android phones, etc. How comes with it comes to devices like this it's so hard to be honest about it? For the price of this device this is simply unacceptable, and this review fails the viewers on that matter in my opinion. It always come to something like "hey what's going guys, here's a bunch of numbers, now it's up to you to know if it works for you or not, hope you liked this video, don't forget to subscribe" smh. From this video's description: "the (almost) perfect all-around workstation". That's just not the case. It should read "a last-gen workstation that will serve you well if you can accept the compromises it comes with, and at a hefty price".
@@leonardwise5807 I tried with the Slim Pen 2. It was a little bit better, but still miles behind the Surface Pro, and decades behind the S8 Ultra or iPad Pro. I also tried the pen that came with the ASUS on the Surface Pro 11, and the pen itself is also terrible. I just don't understand what ASUS was thinking. Half-baked product like I've rarely seen.
As ROG flow X13 owner I'd say that this is its successor that is now finally and officially marketed for creative professionals, comparing it to G14 doesn't make much sense. Unfortunately it also seems that with P13 they are abandoning XG mobile port and eGPUs but I hope that at usb4.0 will make some eGPUs possible to attach. Anyway I'm very happy with my Flow x13 and I'm planing to add XG mobile rtx 4090 some time soon to get more power for my design work. It's the most powerful and the lightest compact laptop for creative work that is easy to bring anywhere. The build quality is also great.
If say it makes most sense to compare it to the G14 imho. They are very similar specs-wise.. I was honestly a little surprised we didnt get a 14" ProArt Model as a direct "Art" version of the G14. There are always compromises in either tiers. I had planned on trying to get the PX13, but I was not very impressed now by only 88% AdobeRGB coverage.. So I could save quite a lot of money on the G14, get 120 hz and gsync. But I would also want/need the 360 mode and pen input for editing photos. God the speakers of the G14 are good!
We do not know if they are discontinuing the Flow brand. They have always been announced in CES in January. I'd say wait until then to make a conclusion. Same goes for the XG Mobile.
@@XboxRecordThatClipwere they announced this year on CES? They might not abandon the Flow but rather rebranding as ProArt laptops. Not knowing things doesn't make anyone smarter, I guess you can wait and see what's going with the Flow line and XG mobile. I only said what it seems to me.
You are welcome. Well, they are quite niche and take a lot of extra effort. So unfortunately we can not easily implement those in every video! But I am working on it, and maybe we can find a suitable workflow in the future for more devices!
@@basilcbaby9595 fwiw, I tried the ProArt 13 and G14 in store at Best Buy - and it was aesthically very pleasing. The color, the build, the size, and specially the keyboard compared to G14. The ProArt keyboard feels 'professional' while G14 feels idk imo 'ugly'. I'm personally inclined to get the ProArt 13 if it goes on sale or a 4070 version becomes available in the US. G14 has better refresh rate (idc for gaming on the go), has better speakers and better price. ProArt seems more classy, and packs a power for its size. I won't use a pen on it, just looking for a personal machine (portable/good screen) which can game on the go if I need to (have a desktop PC at home).
I don't know why, but 13" is a dealbreaker, but 14" is perfect. Doesn't seem like it should be a big difference, but it matters a lot to me. Alas, I'm still definitely waiting for Thunderbolt 5 to be a thing before I upgrade again. 7840 HS and 4060 are serving me well enough for now.
Also, most 14" have double USB-A input, which is great for keyboard & mouse dongles if you're into gaming and want to max out performance (Bluetooth is just not enough). But yeah... that's G14 which is pricier and has older CPU :c
It's 13.3 inches, so 0.7 inches is a dealbreaker? There is a lot of stuff made just right on this laptoptablet that such a small difference should be a dealbreaker.
I cant wait for SODIMM laptops be become available with this processor, thankfully AMD finally updated the product page for the HX 370 to include both DDR5 and LPDDR5 support which we may see this coming to AM5 as well(DDR5 uses the same controller for laptop and desktop dimms where as LPDDR5 is architecturally different in how it communicates and how the chips are laid out, often 2-8 high density chips as opposed to each stick having 10-20 chips, or up to 40 for LRDIMM but LRDIMM is also slightly different to the point you need a modified controller to support it) Dont get me wrong, i understand SODIMM is rather slow compared to LPDDR and desktop DIMMs, but i'd like to be able to upgrade to 192-256GB in the future, or more realistically, when those kits become available, get a 64-128GB kit at a reasonable price. Rather than paying **checks notes** $300 for an additional 16GB at time of purchase with no option to upgrade later if configuring an LPDDR laptop? What is this Apple?
This is £2700 in the UK which is around the going rate for the specs but I would probably buy a G14 instead as I do not need the flexibility. The 360 design is likely the main reason that anyone would buy this as there are better “pro” devices around this price. On another note, these OLED displays are now the de facto choice for around this price but are no longer the premium choice and I was hoping we would start seeing some Tandem OLEDs as they are superior in most ways. I assume the yield remains lower than needed. But Tandem will offer around 20% better efficiency so in line with LCD, have double the half-life, and be considerably brighter in HDR. Maybe next year? As for the new AMD, seems to be solid and at the moment has little competition as the Snapdragons do not have any SKUs in the pro/semi-pro/gaming laptop sector. Not sure when the higher-performing Intel rivals will release and the M4 will be the main rival in October when I understand most of the Windows OEMs will also release their AMD variants (ASUS seems to have bagged the early chip supply). Battery life is not as I hoped, average I suppose, for everyday use rather than media playback that just uses the AV decoder and does not reflect on GPU/CPU efficiency. They remain well behind Apple.
@@CHLBUTTERWORTH Yep, I bought it from Scan at £2,499 too, they delivered it really fast as well, highly recommend Scan. As for the HX 370 chip, it really is a beast, I agree though - I was hoping for better battery life under moderate to high load.
@@NotebookcheckReviewsI wouldn't be surprised if it's replaced with PX16 from this year since convertable 16inch laptop barely makes any sense and PX13 seems like a proper successor to Flow X13
just fyi flow is tablet therefore the machine placed inside the led, which can be disattached, which is more handy in portable gaming which you can use a controller or wireless mouse, or even just touchscreen gaming
i think they modified the x13 chassis from what i can see, asus have always done that for their previous creator laptops (using gaming laptops chassis then refine them)
@@NotebookcheckReviews I see the gpu wattage at 75w. Is it the same across 4050 and 4060? And is 75w inclusive of dynamic boost or it go to 85w? The Asus website doesn’t indicate it.
As far as we know it is the wattage for all GPUs, and it is 75W including dynamic boost. We have a review about the 4050 SKU coming up on the website as well!
@@NotebookcheckReviews I don’t agree on this one. Asus cheaped out on this for no reason. It’s not like they couldn’t put a 120hz pantone color accurate oled display in it, and you reviewers should speak out for this more. I saw other reviewers do this and that is good. Because what asus is doing here is make a expensive product, sell it as a laptop for creators and with that reason only price it high and don’t put a 120hz screen in it. They could put a 120hz pantone oled screen in their 16 inch Zenbook S 16, so what you’re saying is that they should have put a 60hz screen in it? And you don’t like the idea that you can use your laptop other then work/creator stuff ? People want to have the option if the device is capable of it. And they should have put a 120hz oled screen in it. Because here in the netherlands this 2400 euro laptop is now a worse choice then the Rog flow z13 in my option because that laptop is now in a discount for 1700 euros with the same gpu and a 165hz screen and also pantone color acurate. But thats my option and i am glad that other reviewers actually mentioned that the refreshrate of this laptop is a little it low for the price and what this device is capable of. And it should be pointed out because otherwise asus can get away with it, just like their RMA problems, i’m glad there are youtube channels that actually pit the customer first and speak for them
I did mention that I would have loved to see a higher refresh rate panel in the PX13 and even pointed out a better alternative from their own portfolio ... That said I do not like to immediately jump on the "manufacturer bashing hate train". I do not know enough about sourcing parts to put together a laptop to be like "they should have just put a 120 Hz Panel in there" Because I would guess, even Asus is not big enough to order oleds exactly how they would want them. And again, if you really want a 120hz panel there are alternatives, and they are even cheaper ...
@@NotebookcheckReviews hi NotebookCheck, thank you for the comments and I hope this didn't come across as review bashing! I personally am very interested in these new CPUs in the 13" form factor and I'm glad this already exists and performs so well. But as I'm coming from an ASUS ROG Flow X13 with 120Hz, I had to express that this laptop feels like both an upgrade and a downgrade. I will continue to consider this laptop for my next machine. Thank you again!
What would you recommend in terms of software programming and multimedia, this or the spectre x360 14 inch? Important things for me is that it doesnt get to hot and loud, and i can use it for like the next 6 years, and the user experience is flawless
Is this suitable for gaming on a 65" OLED TV? I'm fine with the 60Hz screen because I need a compact, blazing fast daily driver for working on the road and something for entertainment in off hours. I am contemplating returning my recently purchased gaming laptop for this one..
What laptop would you recommend for heavy load of photo editing which uses high Gpu and cpu operations? Looking for a 16 inch and it needs to be travel friendly?
I would suggest picking RTX4060 instead RTX4070. There are marginal gains on RTX4070 at expense of higer price, heat and noise. Secondly, I would like to ask about audio on this one?
Well, the performance gap is massive, that is why we rather opted to show similarly equipped noteboojs. In our written reviews however you can add whatever notebooks you want to our compare elements in the search fields below each one. www.notebookcheck.net/Asus-ProArt-PX13-review-The-world-s-fastest-13-3-inch-2-in-1-thanks-to-AMD-Zen-5-and-RTX-4070-laptop.868429.0.html
Thanks! I managed to add Zenbook S16 to the charts. Perf difference is around 3x. You’d have to play using FSR2 peformance mode instead of native to make it usable in games.
@@NotebookcheckReviews Drawing on a 60hz screen can be laggy. 358 nits SDR brightness for a 2-in-1 is too low in many situations, as is 89% ARGB. Asus had Flow X13's before with 120 hz MiniLed screens. A better compromise between color accuracy, brightness and responsiveness in my book. I work in a post-production and gaming company and might have upgraded my Zenbook Pro 14 to this one if it had a faster screen, as I like the small footprint and the 2-in1 functionality for drawing and presentations.
@@Havanu81 I agree, drawing on my galaxy tab the difference between 60 and 120hz is very noticable. Also I dont get ASUS using this panel since they used a much brighter 2.8k 120hz OLED in their vivobook pro 15
Yeah. 60Hz touchscreen feels much more laggy than 120Hz. That’s why iPad Pro also has a 120Hz screen. And you need low latency pressure sensors too. I don’t understand the display choice since they put a nice 2880x1800 120Hz OLED in their cheaper Zenbook laptop.
Any information on if it takes 100W USB PD? And GPU behavior on it. Flow X13 doesn't take >100W USB PD if it's not the Asus charger, goes down to 65W iirc And Zephyrus G14 (both 2024/3) takes 100W but cripples the GPU iirc
Got a 4070 model here and I've only done quick testing with a 100w charger + cable - I was able to keep Unigene Superposition benchmark running at seemingly the same FPS with no real discharge from the battery, but I had it on a balanced profile anyway rather than performance/turbo. I believe the performance or turbo modes are greyed out on battery or USB C charging too. The main issue here is that the battery won't really charge because all the power is being used to power the laptop, I think it'd need more like 140w to power the laptop + charge slowly while under full load. Would love to see someone test this with more knowledge/time though, since my main use-case for the USB C charging is to charge/maintain power levels while rendering Blender on the go, and for that it does it no problem since the CPU isn't really being stressed at all. Same for when I do CPU intensive workloads like After Effects, it'll use USB C no problem since the GPU isn't really stressed (I wish AE used the GPU more haha) I suspect with the G14 the times where the GPU is throttled would be when the CPU takes a lot of power too and there's not enough for both of them on USB C at a 100w. All in all - I wish they'd included 140w charging with these new laptops because it really does give more options on the go/when traveling, even if it is less efficient. The Transcend 14 manages it after all..
@@Matt-fo4gg Thank you! I have a PX13 4050 (see channel I guess, only been testing iGPU though lol) but no 100W charger. I don't really mind not getting 140W USB C, 100W is sufficient/"standard" enough (but that's like the bare minimum at the same time?). I honestly think the USB C port is kinda delicate and it's nice to have an "alternative" in the proprietary charger. It's just the "charger DRM" going down to 65W which is off-putting. The G14 just throttles the GPU, it doesn't really throttle the CPU much (iirc). Ultrabookreview has a good article or 2 on this
@@yeshwantkethineni3694 Just checked out your videos (thanks for sharing) - the iGPU is solid, and a pretty good option if you were trying to do some lower spec/higher battery life gaming similar to the handheld machines people are using. I wonder how long the laptop would last at 10-15w playing lighter games, it could be very handy for some gaming during flights with this laptop in tent mode + a gamepad. Yeah I'd say 100w chargers are great when they have multiple USB C ports since it'll cover you for everything except the most intensive CPU + GPU 100% loads that you'd need the proprietary one for. Then when traveling you could in theory charge everything with one charger at night (assuming the laptop accepts 65w while off). 140w would just be more of a nice compact on-the-go bonus in addition to the proprietary charger, since it'd be pretty much full power + charging, though a lot slower charging vs the 200w adapter.
I mean a lovely piece of design but they've done something strange with this lineup, the 13 only has 32GB ram which is definitely not enough for professionals, then the 16inch model they have only given one USBC40gbs port which is really strange, I really need the dual 40gbs usbc but the 13 only has 32GB ram so either way it's a fail as far as I'm concerned, unfortunate because I love the rest of the design, power, portability etc.
@@NotebookcheckReviews Sure but the marketing is all about "creators" I guess that term is rather broad. If you're a full time video /motion person it's a bit frustrating because the previous gen had the dual thunderbolt ports and USBC40gbs is great but only having one is an issue for me, why remove it but then have it on the 13.. Anyhow depends on your needs I guess. I think this term creator needs to be better defined.
$3k for the 4070 is wow, literally the same as some 4090 gaming laptops, but I'm sure it'll be discounted eventually. Still, though, its only real competition in the form factor and performance level is Apple M3 Max, so until it gets some competition, it'll probably remain in that asking price range.
You can get a Flow X13 with a XG Mobile 4090 for the same price. This ProArt PX13 will definitely not sell many units because there are better choices based on the price.
@@NotebookcheckReviews Would love to hear your thoughts once you try it on yours. I have it running on mine and while I don't think it's officially supported yet - the fan curves and power limits work perfectly fine, as does the keyboard backlight levels. I'd love to see it updated to include the GPU modes though! To swap between windows managed/eco/adaptive, since currently there's no way to do that without MyASUS or the ProArt Hub installed. Eco mode especially would be handy in G-helper since it fully disables the Nvidia GPU for battery life savings.
@@NotebookcheckReviews Good to hear it can even use 65w! Did you explore the USB C charging any further in terms of the 100w? I've been testing 100w charging on it and it seems like it has pass-through charging but would love someone with more knowledge/testing to confirm I'm not degrading the battery by using it. I also notice on mixed workloads CPU + GPU it won't be able to maintain power levels with only 100w obviously. Though when I use it just for Blender (GPU) or just for After Effects (CPU) it appears as if it's fully powering the laptop, even if the charging is slow (or sometimes not possible if I'm at 100% load)
I don't get what Asus is doing. This thing comes with a dedicated GPU and has only a 120hz display. The Zenbook S16 comes with a 120hz display but no dedicated GPU. It should be the other way around.
@Unicornpirate For the ProArt P16, I’m sure it’s to push people to buy the ROG G16 but I have no idea why they did 60hz for the 13 inch one. Consistency maybe?
I can understand now the loud fans. Disappointed honestly and cannot understand why Asus not considering vapor chamber in such advanced lapyops. Thank you for response and all great efforts ❤🎉
@@NotebookcheckReviews it jitters when drawing slowly, which is bad for art. The surface pro 11 also has MPP, but has extra built in tech to minimize jitter making it pretty good. But all other MPP pens aren’t great. Was hoping for Wacom from a proart device
That is a fair point; you might look into a different solution if you are a full-time artist. But, as far as I know, there aren't any laptops out there right now licensing Wacom's EMR tech, right?
All this is marketing BS, give me as a pro consumer a real review. Take a big raw 4k project and edit it on resolve with color grading and light noise reduction and let us see the result. They all market their crazy expensive devices as "creators" but its not or mildly directed to occasional users with capcut edits

I saw it already the size for me is ok,however i want also good performance.. Im using Pr and Ps.. thanks if somebody can help..😊
Asus lost me when I saw “ 60 Hz “. In 2024 to serve a 1000€ computer is nonsense. No thank you. I don’t buy anything without 120 hz or higher, HDR 600 or higher. Lower than that is to get frustrated.
There is a 16" model, the 13" is also a whole different price/size. It is also the ProArt, so the pricing is exorbitant compared to a zenbook/ TUF / Zephyrus for those Pro features, sic. As for the 120hz, it's OLED. YMMV. It's a downer, but this is a "Pro" device. If there's a 120hz OLED in 13"/14", it's worth comparing. There will be other Zen 5's coming soon, and there's a zephyrus spec bump as well coming iirc.
Agreed, would love to see more full SD slots. I will say though that the micro SD is potentially handy here as the only way to add an extra TB of storage since the internal SSD form factor is limited to 2TB. I install some games on the micro SD for example, then I keep the internal 2TB for work/apps.
We have those numbers on the website. We are in a transitional period, but since I was comparing the PX13 to a lot of older machines, we simply do not have CB24 results for them ...
@@NotebookcheckReviews It's fine not having it for older stuff of course, but I've searched through the whole written PX13 review twice before commenting, but haven't found CB2024 numbers at all.
Shoot, you are right. You can find them in our Strixpoint Analysis: www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Zen-5-Strix-Point-CPU-analysis-Ryzen-AI-9-HX-370-versus-Intel-Core-Ultra-Apple-M3-and-Qualcomm-Snapdragon-X-Elite.868641.0.html Sorry for mixing that up!
Awesome new CPU aside, 60 Hz display really isn't well suited for video editors. You need at least 120 Hz to play both 24 and 30 fps content smoothly. Limited color gamut isn't a much of a win either. So much for content creators-oriented laptop.
Very excited for this laptop. I should have mine this week. But that micro SD slot is just a slap to the face. Would have MUCH rather had another usb port, be it A or C, or a full size SD reader.
Yeah, agreed! I just do not get the whole micro sd-card slot thing. Either they are terribly cheap or a lot easier to add to the chassis than a full-size one or a USB port.
I have literally never met anyone that was like OMG MICRO SD CARD READER. Outside of gaming handhelds, where they make perfect sense, every one of my micro SD card slots has remained unused.
Micro SD card reader actually comes very handy to expand storage with 512gb,1tb or more. Small laptops usually don't come with 2 nvme sdd slots so this can help more than any other port or full SD card slot. I'd rather replace the HDMI port because it can be connected to external display via usb-c port
@@NotebookcheckReviews Maybe for quick sketches-I'm not an artist myself, but I work in game dev as a manager. The issue is the absence of hotkeys. If you want to work fast, you need a keyboard beside you anyway, and then there's no sense in sacrificing the screen size because you already have extra equipment on your table.
So TLDR: it's not much faster than before and the battery life is still not good. Oh and everything is soldered except for the SSD which is the stupid tiny form factor, that's way more expensive. Why was this laptop even made.
@@NotebookcheckReviews Yes, someone who would regret his purchase later on once he realises that a 13" screen is too small for anything but browsing the web.
I really do not understand why you cannot add the weight when you show the specs of the notebooks you review. They are notebooks after all, not desktops and people need to see the weight. And do not reply again to go see the site. You are competing with other youtubers on this.

Hopefully X13 2-in-1 will be refreshed with similar hardware and power limit but with a higher refresh rate OLED panel. I guess there not many 13.3" OLED screen available with higher refresh rate to go with and hence Asus has to settle with the 60 Hz version.
How much is decent battery life?
The model is called PX13, not P13.
Bought the 4060 version and returned it the same day. The pen and the pen digitizer are by far the worst I've used, can't even take notes on it, it keeps "cutting". The 60Hz is unbearable at that price. The touchpad is unacceptable at that price, it's usable, but that's it. It's very mushy and easy to lose control while dragging. The speakers are average. The battery life seemed okay. The power modes were pretty good. Whisper mode would still give good FPS for CS2 with low fan noise. Can't use performance mode with a 100W USB-PD charger connected so you need its brick to be able to use it. Would only recommend if you really *need* that kind of performance in a such a small chassis for some reason, but forget using the pen and bring a mouse. But overall I wouldn't recommend it at all, you'd be better to compromise on the size and weight than the actual usability of the device. I had installed all latest updates (WIndows updates + ASUS stuff). Oh, also, so many "management apps"! At least two from ASUS, + AMD, + NVIDIA, + Dolby, etc. No wonder why most people buy Surface or MacBook, the experience of mixed components isn't pleasant. For any real mobile productivity, nothing beats the MBP unfortunately. But I don't like MacOS. So I'd rather use something like a Slim 7x and remote desktop to my desktop workstation, but I understand that's not for everyone.
the first negative review i've seen! thank you, there's too much incentivized effusive praise floating around atm
@@dirkfunk8053 tbh I used to consume a lot of reviews from big channels but 99% of the time they give overwhelmingly good reviews to literally e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g. It's easy when it's not your own money and that you're heavily incentivized to keep your sponsorship going. They'll overweight the pros and go very quickly over the cons. Look at this video for example, he barely talks about the pen for less than 10 seconds, same for the touchpad, the software from all these different companies, etc. And these are all aspects of this laptop that are extremely underwhelming for the price. He does spend a bunch of time on synthetic benchmarks that have little to no actual values. I appreciate the summary of the different sources of data but that should be no more than 1 minute of the video, and I can pause if I want. We're always presented with an overwhelming amount of numbers while what really matters is the overall feeling of the machine for the price paid. When you buy an expensive MacBook Pro, you pay for something wholesome that works really well. And everyone agrees. Same goes for an iPad, a Tab S Series, most of flagship Android phones, etc. How comes with it comes to devices like this it's so hard to be honest about it? For the price of this device this is simply unacceptable, and this review fails the viewers on that matter in my opinion. It always come to something like "hey what's going guys, here's a bunch of numbers, now it's up to you to know if it works for you or not, hope you liked this video, don't forget to subscribe" smh.
From this video's description: "the (almost) perfect all-around workstation". That's just not the case. It should read "a last-gen workstation that will serve you well if you can accept the compromises it comes with, and at a hefty price".
Use the Microsoft pen much better
@@dirkfunk8053 there's already a lot of criticism in this very comment section. And well deserved in my opinion.
@@leonardwise5807 I tried with the Slim Pen 2. It was a little bit better, but still miles behind the Surface Pro, and decades behind the S8 Ultra or iPad Pro. I also tried the pen that came with the ASUS on the Surface Pro 11, and the pen itself is also terrible. I just don't understand what ASUS was thinking. Half-baked product like I've rarely seen.
As ROG flow X13 owner I'd say that this is its successor that is now finally and officially marketed for creative professionals, comparing it to G14 doesn't make much sense.
Unfortunately it also seems that with P13 they are abandoning XG mobile port and eGPUs but I hope that at usb4.0 will make some eGPUs possible to attach.
Anyway I'm very happy with my Flow x13 and I'm planing to add XG mobile rtx 4090 some time soon to get more power for my design work.
It's the most powerful and the lightest compact laptop for creative work that is easy to bring anywhere. The build quality is also great.
If say it makes most sense to compare it to the G14 imho. They are very similar specs-wise.. I was honestly a little surprised we didnt get a 14" ProArt Model as a direct "Art" version of the G14.
There are always compromises in either tiers. I had planned on trying to get the PX13, but I was not very impressed now by only 88% AdobeRGB coverage.. So I could save quite a lot of money on the G14, get 120 hz and gsync. But I would also want/need the 360 mode and pen input for editing photos.
God the speakers of the G14 are good!
We do not know if they are discontinuing the Flow brand. They have always been announced in CES in January. I'd say wait until then to make a conclusion. Same goes for the XG Mobile.
@@XboxRecordThatClipwere they announced this year on CES? They might not abandon the Flow but rather rebranding as ProArt laptops.
Not knowing things doesn't make anyone smarter, I guess you can wait and see what's going with the Flow line and XG mobile.
I only said what it seems to me.
Great review and soooooo happy you added creator benchmarks. I've been missing those in your videos.
You are welcome.
Well, they are quite niche and take a lot of extra effort. So unfortunately we can not easily implement those in every video! But I am working on it, and maybe we can find a suitable workflow in the future for more devices!
@@NotebookcheckReviewsI understand. They're however really useful for us creators. Thanks anyways.
Was looking for exactly this review, and you delivered!! Thanks for comparing it against G14 🙌
What's your decision, I'm still not sure
@@basilcbaby9595 fwiw, I tried the ProArt 13 and G14 in store at Best Buy - and it was aesthically very pleasing. The color, the build, the size, and specially the keyboard compared to G14. The ProArt keyboard feels 'professional' while G14 feels idk imo 'ugly'.
I'm personally inclined to get the ProArt 13 if it goes on sale or a 4070 version becomes available in the US. G14 has better refresh rate (idc for gaming on the go), has better speakers and better price. ProArt seems more classy, and packs a power for its size. I won't use a pen on it, just looking for a personal machine (portable/good screen) which can game on the go if I need to (have a desktop PC at home).
I don't know why, but 13" is a dealbreaker, but 14" is perfect. Doesn't seem like it should be a big difference, but it matters a lot to me. Alas, I'm still definitely waiting for Thunderbolt 5 to be a thing before I upgrade again. 7840 HS and 4060 are serving me well enough for now.
Also, most 14" have double USB-A input, which is great for keyboard & mouse dongles if you're into gaming and want to max out performance (Bluetooth is just not enough). But yeah... that's G14 which is pricier and has older CPU :c
It's 13.3 inches, so 0.7 inches is a dealbreaker? There is a lot of stuff made just right on this laptoptablet that such a small difference should be a dealbreaker.
@@Dominik-iv6ek I have several real good usb c dongles that i use for laptops and my steamdeck, so that should pose no problem.
I LIKE it
finally, there is a small like MB Air "13" for work and powerful like basic gaming device i wanted
@NotebookcheckReviews whats the laptop stand you are using?
I cant wait for SODIMM laptops be become available with this processor, thankfully AMD finally updated the product page for the HX 370 to include both DDR5 and LPDDR5 support which we may see this coming to AM5 as well(DDR5 uses the same controller for laptop and desktop dimms where as LPDDR5 is architecturally different in how it communicates and how the chips are laid out, often 2-8 high density chips as opposed to each stick having 10-20 chips, or up to 40 for LRDIMM but LRDIMM is also slightly different to the point you need a modified controller to support it)
Dont get me wrong, i understand SODIMM is rather slow compared to LPDDR and desktop DIMMs, but i'd like to be able to upgrade to 192-256GB in the future, or more realistically, when those kits become available, get a 64-128GB kit at a reasonable price. Rather than paying **checks notes** $300 for an additional 16GB at time of purchase with no option to upgrade later if configuring an LPDDR laptop?
What is this Apple?
This is £2700 in the UK which is around the going rate for the specs but I would probably buy a G14 instead as I do not need the flexibility. The 360 design is likely the main reason that anyone would buy this as there are better “pro” devices around this price.
On another note, these OLED displays are now the de facto choice for around this price but are no longer the premium choice and I was hoping we would start seeing some Tandem OLEDs as they are superior in most ways. I assume the yield remains lower than needed. But Tandem will offer around 20% better efficiency so in line with LCD, have double the half-life, and be considerably brighter in HDR. Maybe next year?
As for the new AMD, seems to be solid and at the moment has little competition as the Snapdragons do not have any SKUs in the pro/semi-pro/gaming laptop sector. Not sure when the higher-performing Intel rivals will release and the M4 will be the main rival in October when I understand most of the Windows OEMs will also release their AMD variants (ASUS seems to have bagged the early chip supply). Battery life is not as I hoped, average I suppose, for everyday use rather than media playback that just uses the AV decoder and does not reflect on GPU/CPU efficiency. They remain well behind Apple.
The 4070 version is £2,499 at Scan
@@CHLBUTTERWORTH Yep, I bought it from Scan at £2,499 too, they delivered it really fast as well, highly recommend Scan.
As for the HX 370 chip, it really is a beast, I agree though - I was hoping for better battery life under moderate to high load.
@@Matt-fo4gg turn off nvidia gpu))))

According to Asus's website the PX13 starts at RTX 4050 and only goes up to 4060. Why are so many vloggers saying that it has 4070?
Because our review sample had a 4070. it might be available only in select markets ...
Asus like to do that from time to time!
Now i need a Flow X16 version of this with 240hz screen, upgradeable ram & more expansion options
I am actually quite excited what we will see from the flow line-up next year!
@@NotebookcheckReviewsI wouldn't be surprised if it's replaced with PX16 from this year since convertable 16inch laptop barely makes any sense and PX13 seems like a proper successor to Flow X13
@@NotebookcheckReviews I think the Flow line is dead...replaced by this
You have PX13's bigger brother: the P16.
The refresh rate is 120hz, though.
@@wonderfaller refresh rate is 60 on p16 lol))
I really like this. Capable gaming machine? Bit worried about the screen but unsure how much i'd notice.....
I would not be my first joice, when shopping for a primarily gaming notebook!
Price???
Which model is that stand that you placed the laptop on?, looks nice and sturdy.
Is this the only laptop with proper graphics card and touchscreen? Any other?
Have you managed to do a performance and battery test between this 4070 version and the 4060 version?
Unfortunately not.
just fyi flow is tablet therefore the machine placed inside the led, which can be disattached, which is more handy in portable gaming which you can use a controller or wireless mouse, or even just touchscreen gaming
its alot more handheld than any handheld available, w highest intel cpu with rtx geforces
Seems very similar to x13, too bad it doesn’t have higher refresh rate.
Very. It is the same overall concept, just in a sleeker (if thicker) chassis and with a lot more power on the CPU side of things.
i think they modified the x13 chassis from what i can see, asus have always done that for their previous creator laptops (using gaming laptops chassis then refine them)
@@NotebookcheckReviews I see the gpu wattage at 75w. Is it the same across 4050 and 4060? And is 75w inclusive of dynamic boost or it go to 85w? The Asus website doesn’t indicate it.
The chassis is very different from the Flow X13. I would say it is a similar footprint, but a complete redesign.
As far as we know it is the wattage for all GPUs, and it is 75W including dynamic boost.
We have a review about the 4050 SKU coming up on the website as well!
Wouldn't it make more sense to compare with x13 of last year instead due to same form factor?
60Hz while having an RTX GPU feels like a huge miss
Ultra settings, 60 fps locked 👀 I'd be down tbh
Again, this is not a gaming laptop! Just because it's got a dedicated GPU doesn't necessarily mean it's for entertainment ;)
@@NotebookcheckReviews I don’t agree on this one. Asus cheaped out on this for no reason. It’s not like they couldn’t put a 120hz pantone color accurate oled display in it, and you reviewers should speak out for this more. I saw other reviewers do this and that is good. Because what asus is doing here is make a expensive product, sell it as a laptop for creators and with that reason only price it high and don’t put a 120hz screen in it. They could put a 120hz pantone oled screen in their 16 inch Zenbook S 16, so what you’re saying is that they should have put a 60hz screen in it? And you don’t like the idea that you can use your laptop other then work/creator stuff ? People want to have the option if the device is capable of it. And they should have put a 120hz oled screen in it. Because here in the netherlands this 2400 euro laptop is now a worse choice then the Rog flow z13 in my option because that laptop is now in a discount for 1700 euros with the same gpu and a 165hz screen and also pantone color acurate. But thats my option and i am glad that other reviewers actually mentioned that the refreshrate of this laptop is a little it low for the price and what this device is capable of. And it should be pointed out because otherwise asus can get away with it, just like their RMA problems, i’m glad there are youtube channels that actually pit the customer first and speak for them
I did mention that I would have loved to see a higher refresh rate panel in the PX13 and even pointed out a better alternative from their own portfolio ...
That said I do not like to immediately jump on the "manufacturer bashing hate train".
I do not know enough about sourcing parts to put together a laptop to be like "they should have just put a 120 Hz Panel in there"
Because I would guess, even Asus is not big enough to order oleds exactly how they would want them.
And again, if you really want a 120hz panel there are alternatives, and they are even cheaper ...
@@NotebookcheckReviews hi NotebookCheck, thank you for the comments and I hope this didn't come across as review bashing! I personally am very interested in these new CPUs in the 13" form factor and I'm glad this already exists and performs so well. But as I'm coming from an ASUS ROG Flow X13 with 120Hz, I had to express that this laptop feels like both an upgrade and a downgrade. I will continue to consider this laptop for my next machine. Thank you again!
What would you recommend in terms of software programming and multimedia, this or the spectre x360 14 inch? Important things for me is that it doesnt get to hot and loud, and i can use it for like the next 6 years, and the user experience is flawless
Is this suitable for gaming on a 65" OLED TV? I'm fine with the 60Hz screen because I need a compact, blazing fast daily driver for working on the road and something for entertainment in off hours. I am contemplating returning my recently purchased gaming laptop for this one..
What laptop would you recommend for heavy load of photo editing which uses high Gpu and cpu operations? Looking for a 16 inch and it needs to be travel friendly?
The speaker difference blow minds ! 😅
They really raised the bar with the G14
Are the speakers on the PX13 really that bad compared to the G14? Or I'm hearing it wrong? Cause those two sound way different.
They're quite loud and decent but not quite on G14's level. Small sacrifice for the form factor imho
I would suggest picking RTX4060 instead RTX4070. There are marginal gains on RTX4070 at expense of higer price, heat and noise. Secondly, I would like to ask about audio on this one?
great points on the laptop. next, we need the P16. and how it compares to the G16. thank!
Already working on it! ;)
You can compare it to the S16, but the P16 has a dedicated GPU.
How much does it cost?
What's the tablet stand you use?
It's just something from Amazon. I had it for a while, but I wasn't able to find it on Amazon.
Would have been nice to see Zenbook S16 OLED also in gaming benchmarks to see how far AMDs new iGPU is behind Nvidia dGPU today.
Well, the performance gap is massive, that is why we rather opted to show similarly equipped noteboojs. In our written reviews however you can add whatever notebooks you want to our compare elements in the search fields below each one.

Thanks! I managed to add Zenbook S16 to the charts. Perf difference is around 3x. You’d have to play using FSR2 peformance mode instead of native to make it usable in games.
That 60hz screen is a big no no - even for graphical work the specs disappoint. Ridiculous.
What would you have liked to see and what kind of work are you doing?
@@NotebookcheckReviews Drawing on a 60hz screen can be laggy. 358 nits SDR brightness for a 2-in-1 is too low in many situations, as is 89% ARGB. Asus had Flow X13's before with 120 hz MiniLed screens. A better compromise between color accuracy, brightness and responsiveness in my book. I work in a post-production and gaming company and might have upgraded my Zenbook Pro 14 to this one if it had a faster screen, as I like the small footprint and the 2-in1 functionality for drawing and presentations.
@@Havanu81 I agree, drawing on my galaxy tab the difference between 60 and 120hz is very noticable. Also I dont get ASUS using this panel since they used a much brighter 2.8k 120hz OLED in their vivobook pro 15
Yeah. 60Hz touchscreen feels much more laggy than 120Hz. That’s why iPad Pro also has a 120Hz screen. And you need low latency pressure sensors too.
I don’t understand the display choice since they put a nice 2880x1800 120Hz OLED in their cheaper Zenbook laptop.

Alex will you be reviewing gpd duo 13.3 dual screen?
Let me look into it!
@@NotebookcheckReviews thanks.
Any information on if it takes 100W USB PD? And GPU behavior on it.
Flow X13 doesn't take >100W USB PD if it's not the Asus charger, goes down to 65W iirc
And Zephyrus G14 (both 2024/3) takes 100W but cripples the GPU iirc
My flow x13 takes up to 100w from Ugreen 100w charger. Hope this helps, they have 140w charger also but I've never tried it
Got a 4070 model here and I've only done quick testing with a 100w charger + cable - I was able to keep Unigene Superposition benchmark running at seemingly the same FPS with no real discharge from the battery, but I had it on a balanced profile anyway rather than performance/turbo. I believe the performance or turbo modes are greyed out on battery or USB C charging too. The main issue here is that the battery won't really charge because all the power is being used to power the laptop, I think it'd need more like 140w to power the laptop + charge slowly while under full load.
Would love to see someone test this with more knowledge/time though, since my main use-case for the USB C charging is to charge/maintain power levels while rendering Blender on the go, and for that it does it no problem since the CPU isn't really being stressed at all. Same for when I do CPU intensive workloads like After Effects, it'll use USB C no problem since the GPU isn't really stressed (I wish AE used the GPU more haha)
I suspect with the G14 the times where the GPU is throttled would be when the CPU takes a lot of power too and there's not enough for both of them on USB C at a 100w.
All in all - I wish they'd included 140w charging with these new laptops because it really does give more options on the go/when traveling, even if it is less efficient. The Transcend 14 manages it after all..
@@Matt-fo4gg Thank you!
I have a PX13 4050 (see channel I guess, only been testing iGPU though lol) but no 100W charger.
I don't really mind not getting 140W USB C, 100W is sufficient/"standard" enough (but that's like the bare minimum at the same time?). I honestly think the USB C port is kinda delicate and it's nice to have an "alternative" in the proprietary charger. It's just the "charger DRM" going down to 65W which is off-putting.
The G14 just throttles the GPU, it doesn't really throttle the CPU much (iirc). Ultrabookreview has a good article or 2 on this
@@yeshwantkethineni3694 Just checked out your videos (thanks for sharing) - the iGPU is solid, and a pretty good option if you were trying to do some lower spec/higher battery life gaming similar to the handheld machines people are using. I wonder how long the laptop would last at 10-15w playing lighter games, it could be very handy for some gaming during flights with this laptop in tent mode + a gamepad.
Yeah I'd say 100w chargers are great when they have multiple USB C ports since it'll cover you for everything except the most intensive CPU + GPU 100% loads that you'd need the proprietary one for. Then when traveling you could in theory charge everything with one charger at night (assuming the laptop accepts 65w while off).
140w would just be more of a nice compact on-the-go bonus in addition to the proprietary charger, since it'd be pretty much full power + charging, though a lot slower charging vs the 200w adapter.
there's something wrong with the wifi card or the wifi firmware. the battery life for webbrowsing is just extremely inconsistent to other tests.
This guy is like Derbauer's hip cousin
:D This made me chuckle
Please tell me where you bought your shirt!!
The inclusion of the micro sd slot in the PX13 beyond confuses me. Who even uses a micro SD card in a creator context?
Exactly, I do not get this micro-sd card trend at all!
240 PWM sound scary, i mean really scared, what can you say about it?
Same answer, as under the P16 video ;)
hows the battery life?
Have you considered watching the whole video or checking the time stamps? ;)

You are more than welcome! Thanks for watching!
Anyone knows how many external monitors it supports? (while also running the internal display)
I mean a lovely piece of design but they've done something strange with this lineup, the 13 only has 32GB ram which is definitely not enough for professionals, then the 16inch model they have only given one USBC40gbs port which is really strange, I really need the dual 40gbs usbc but the 13 only has 32GB ram so either way it's a fail as far as I'm concerned, unfortunate because I love the rest of the design, power, portability etc.
Ah well, there is no such things as the "perfect" laptop.
@@NotebookcheckReviews Sure but the marketing is all about "creators" I guess that term is rather broad. If you're a full time video /motion person it's a bit frustrating because the previous gen had the dual thunderbolt ports and USBC40gbs is great but only having one is an issue for me, why remove it but then have it on the 13.. Anyhow depends on your needs I guess. I think this term creator needs to be better defined.
$3k for the 4070 is wow, literally the same as some 4090 gaming laptops, but I'm sure it'll be discounted eventually. Still, though, its only real competition in the form factor and performance level is Apple M3 Max, so until it gets some competition, it'll probably remain in that asking price range.
You can get a Flow X13 with a XG Mobile 4090 for the same price. This ProArt PX13 will definitely not sell many units because there are better choices based on the price.
60Hz?
Yepp!
Will G-Helper Support the ProArt PX13?
I will see if I can test that for you!
@@NotebookcheckReviews Would love to hear your thoughts once you try it on yours.
I have it running on mine and while I don't think it's officially supported yet - the fan curves and power limits work perfectly fine, as does the keyboard backlight levels.
I'd love to see it updated to include the GPU modes though! To swap between windows managed/eco/adaptive, since currently there's no way to do that without MyASUS or the ProArt Hub installed. Eco mode especially would be handy in G-helper since it fully disables the Nvidia GPU for battery life savings.
can i still use 65watt type c charger?
Yes you can!
@@NotebookcheckReviews Good to hear it can even use 65w!
Did you explore the USB C charging any further in terms of the 100w? I've been testing 100w charging on it and it seems like it has pass-through charging but would love someone with more knowledge/testing to confirm I'm not degrading the battery by using it.
I also notice on mixed workloads CPU + GPU it won't be able to maintain power levels with only 100w obviously. Though when I use it just for Blender (GPU) or just for After Effects (CPU) it appears as if it's fully powering the laptop, even if the charging is slow (or sometimes not possible if I'm at 100% load)
The only downside is the 60hz display... Damn at least put 120hz and it would've been the best laptop ever.
I don't get what Asus is doing. This thing comes with a dedicated GPU and has only a 120hz display. The Zenbook S16 comes with a 120hz display but no dedicated GPU. It should be the other way around.
@Unicornpirate For the ProArt P16, I’m sure it’s to push people to buy the ROG G16 but I have no idea why they did 60hz for the 13 inch one. Consistency maybe?
They managed to put a 2.8k 120hz OLED screen on their mid range vivobook why couldnt they use it here?

@@NotebookcheckReviews what are the odds i just ordered the m18 its on the way. i see i must have good taste then
My 7 year old 600 dollar 2in1 has 32 gigs ram, since I want my next laptop lasting at least 3 years, 32 gigs in non upgradable box us out of the question, at ram is cheap at the OEM buying point, if they want to seduce those of us with 32 gigs of ram already, they need to make 64 gigs available, but at this price
i want 😢
Dont we all ;)
Somebody help me😢.. im a beginner for photo and video editing.😅. im finding a suitable laptop that good for my work.. i own a asus pro 16x oled and cant play 4k video i want an upgrade.. is this proartpx13 is good for upgrading? I saw it already the size for me is ok,however i want also good performance..
Im using Pr and Ps.. thanks if somebody can help..😊
What GPU you are running in your Zenbook?
Asus lost me when I saw “ 60 Hz “. In 2024 to serve a 1000€ computer is nonsense. No thank you.
I don’t buy anything without 120 hz or higher, HDR 600 or higher. Lower than that is to get frustrated.
There is a 16" model, the 13" is also a whole different price/size. It is also the ProArt, so the pricing is exorbitant compared to a zenbook/ TUF / Zephyrus for those Pro features, sic. As for the 120hz, it's OLED. YMMV. It's a downer, but this is a "Pro" device. If there's a 120hz OLED in 13"/14", it's worth comparing.
There will be other Zen 5's coming soon, and there's a zephyrus spec bump as well coming iirc.
I don't like the trend of microSD slots either, especially on a so-called productive machine, it's either full size or just outright omit it
Agreed, but I guess there are some drone pilots out there who are very happy that they do not have to reach for their adapters! :D
Agreed, would love to see more full SD slots.
I will say though that the micro SD is potentially handy here as the only way to add an extra TB of storage since the internal SSD form factor is limited to 2TB. I install some games on the micro SD for example, then I keep the internal 2TB for work/apps.
It's 2024, please run also CB2024, even just to show the top numbers, so it's more comparable with reviews/data already skipping old benchmarks.
We have those numbers on the website. We are in a transitional period, but since I was comparing the PX13 to a lot of older machines, we simply do not have CB24 results for them ...
@@NotebookcheckReviews It's fine not having it for older stuff of course, but I've searched through the whole written PX13 review twice before commenting, but haven't found CB2024 numbers at all.
Shoot, you are right.
You can find them in our Strixpoint Analysis:

Sorry for mixing that up!
Awesome new CPU aside, 60 Hz display really isn't well suited for video editors. You need at least 120 Hz to play both 24 and 30 fps content smoothly. Limited color gamut isn't a much of a win either. So much for content creators-oriented laptop.
Very excited for this laptop. I should have mine this week. But that micro SD slot is just a slap to the face. Would have MUCH rather had another usb port, be it A or C, or a full size SD reader.
Yeah, agreed! I just do not get the whole micro sd-card slot thing. Either they are terribly cheap or a lot easier to add to the chassis than a full-size one or a USB port.
I have literally never met anyone that was like OMG MICRO SD CARD READER. Outside of gaming handhelds, where they make perfect sense, every one of my micro SD card slots has remained unused.
Micro SD card reader actually comes very handy to expand storage with 512gb,1tb or more. Small laptops usually don't come with 2 nvme sdd slots so this can help more than any other port or full SD card slot.
I'd rather replace the HDMI port because it can be connected to external display via usb-c port
Ah yes. 3K Euro. Good luck competing with Macbook Pro. Hint: artists usually don’t paint on the screen, so it’s not an advantage.
I know a lot that do tbh ...
@@NotebookcheckReviews Maybe for quick sketches-I'm not an artist myself, but I work in game dev as a manager. The issue is the absence of hotkeys. If you want to work fast, you need a keyboard beside you anyway, and then there's no sense in sacrificing the screen size because you already have extra equipment on your table.
3000€ lol
So TLDR: it's not much faster than before and the battery life is still not good. Oh and everything is soldered except for the SSD which is the stupid tiny form factor, that's way more expensive. Why was this laptop even made.
It's ok, if it is not a laptop for you. But could you imagine that someone out there may want that much power in such a small form factor ...
Obviously to be the most compact, lightweight yet still powerful and versatile laptop for creative professionals.
Dawg the CPU is as fast as Ryzen 9 7845HX that you find in giant gaming laptops.
@@NotebookcheckReviews Yes, someone who would regret his purchase later on once he realises that a 13" screen is too small for anything but browsing the web.
@@owlmostdead9492I game on 14 inches all the time, I think I could do 13 inches no problem.
Way bigger than a Switch Lite and those are plenty fun :)
I really do not understand why you cannot add the weight when you show the specs of the notebooks you review. They are notebooks after all, not desktops and people need to see the weight. And do not reply again to go see the site. You are competing with other youtubers on this.
Will try to remember in the future, but I am sure there would be a nicer way to ask for this, than simply "demanding"
@@NotebookcheckReviews well I had already asked nicely in 4 other videos in the comments, you had replied that you will take it into consideration... Maybe this time it will register? And basically I don't demand, I suggest and if it is ignored in the end I will have to unsubscribe.
Maybe then it was just me "picking up" a more demanding tone! Sorry about that, it's been a long day 🙃
In the end you are right, it is essential information, I would guess the dimensions as well?
I will put something into the next videos alongside the specs!
60hz is the reason i reject to buy it
