My review of the Asus Zephyrus G14 GA401 with the AMD Ryzen 6900HS and Radeon RX 6800S. This is the best gaming laptop Asus makes in the 14" form factor. And is WAY faster than the previous version.
Pricing TBD

For the Ergo-Lift hinge, I had an Asus who's screen used to get insanely hot after long gaming sessions and I used it for over two years and saw no visible issues with it. I think the screens themselves have a thick layer on top of them which dissipates the heat and protects the screen, but it is safe to say that the heat won't damage the screen.

Hey Dave! I think it would be super cool if you also have recorded noise alongside this thermal picture for different tasks. For example, noise level while just browsing, noise level while playing a non-heavy game, and the last one while playing some heavy game with highest playable settings. It would really help to understand what to expect in terms of noise. When I got 2020 G14 I was kinda disappointed, because it is unexpectedly very noisy in non-heavy games even with the lowest settings, that was not the case with my older laptop.

I love my 2021 Zephyrus G14, but there are so many improvements (especially that screen!), that I may be tempted to upgrade, despite the fact that the 21 model was the first upgrade to a laptop that I've had in over 15 years. That said, I got it on sale when it was $1200. I hope this year's will be as reasonable. Having tech update this fast is actually a great problem to have!

I'll be using the zenbook strictly for work (web dev and graphic design), and moving from the par panel that the 2020 g14 has to an oled 2k screen is going to be awesome.

Those worried for the display heating up, Asus has designed rear exhaust vent heat sink in such a way that only a small volume flows out of it, most of the hot air is exhausted out of the side vents. Hey Dave, could you do a battery life & IGPU comparison between 2021 vs 2022 G14 for similar workloads. There's literally nothing else to compare between the 2. How less is the wattage for 6nm TSMC compared to previous year's 7nm. I believe 2022 version looked better wrt the exhaust grills on the back & with the Magnesium silver deck.

from my experience with the G14 for a year. i can say that my screen is already slightly bended because of the heat even with that plastic chain. The fan suck way more dust and air than any of my previous gaming laptop. I would seriously consider such screen design is a red flag for long term use. I wish there is a glass screen option for gaming laptop not only in 4K but 2K&1080P so the laptop itselp can have longer life

I absolutely love Asus' dedication to keep improving this product year after year. It's not enought to make me upgrade from my first gen G14, but they're clearly listening to their customers. I run my laptop HARD and over the past 2 years I have never had any issues with temperatures. They seem to have properly tested it to hold up to the tempeartures they're pushing. One downside is the fans aren't very durable. I'm on my third set becuse the bearings crap out every 9 months or so, but I would consider my use case to be extreme (high fan rpm for 8 hours plus per day)

I was already impressed with integrated GPUs back when I had a laptop with a 3500u that allowed me to play Witcher 3 at 720p Medium with 30fps. But this is just a whole new level. Entry-level dedicated GPUs are definitely becoming obsolete, and that’s a good thing

If you didn't own you can argue the case to get it at the cost of support as Asus will role them out frequently while steam deck will be prob next 5 years. They plan to support this one for long and build a solid base for their next product which is proh gonna be the real power house and real tech to integrate with their steam system. But otherwise buying them separately, nah.

For me the g14 has always been the laptop to beat. Unfortunately I am not sure if the 6800S really is an improvement over the 3060. Don't get me wrong for gaming it is fine. But gaming laptops also make great mobile workstations for 3D art. And AMDs ray tracing on desktop has been a behind nvidia so a blender or arnold Render with GPU acceleration would have been interesting to see if it really holds up.
