Check out the ROG STRIX G16 here: ph.rog.gg/2023StrixG16
In this video, I unbox and give my first impressions on the all-new ROG Strix G16, the latest gaming laptop from ASUS. With its powerful specs and sleek design, it promises to be the ultimate gaming machine. I also tested its performance in Battlefield 2042, and I was blown away by how well it handled ultra settings.

Hi kevin Thanks for the video with full detail information I have question for you: Also there are two models in my country. One with original windows and another without official windows. is there any way to find out that laptop comes with official windows before unboxing? and does Microsoft product key of windows labeled on the box of laptop with official windows? I will be so glad if you answer me 💐

@majinboo6377 Жыл бұрын

the problem is, asus rog and acer ditch developing countries like dogs, instead of giving us the strix g16 and g18 both with nebulla display qhd 240hz 3ms 500 nits, they give us the standard ips display screen with fhd 165hz 7ms 300 nits. and then the acer instead of giving us the qhd 240hz they sent us the 165hz instead and no 18inch version, they just give us the 16inch version. which is why im beginning to think to buy lenovo legion, but i heard the ccp forced the company to give them customers data from all around the world so im kinda worried about users or consumers safety and privacy. but their gaming laptops are really good for thr price and for what they gave u compared to other competitions.

@michaelmerrill8467 7 ай бұрын

Ouch....120k php. I was able to get that model all in for 77k php. In the states. I don't know why electronics are so expensive in the Philippines? I asked my wife why it's like that and she dosnt know. Probably because it's imported??

@KevinEvangelista 7 ай бұрын

That's a very good question! Import tax and/or tariffs in the Philippines are exorbitantly high, due to a lot of factors. We have very few major ports for large-quantity and large-bandwidth items to pass through, so customs fees will always be high. To add to that, pre-and-post sale oversight (like required NTC approvals for any electronic product, and the government requiring all non-consumable consumer products have a standard warranty period) all adds up in cost, and is in turn, passed on to the Filipino customer. This is a gross oversimplification of the process, but I think it captures why electronics here cost so high. There are also much more wide-reaching factors like the high demand for electronics allowing brands to sell at higher prices to maximize profit margins, and being a third-world country with rampant corruption in every stage of the process that involves any kind of government participation. Hope this answers your question!

I dont freakin get it. The uk and us reviewers get only one brick and you showed two bricks. No mouse no bag. Asus is just all over the place with confusions this year. They even have a pic of the same laptop in their spec sheet that has rgb on the lid but its no where to be found in reality. I mean seriously asus has gone freakin flaps on every thing this year. Even their tuf laptops have ni sense at all. And their tuf with intel processors is not out yet. Who even would want to buy a shitti advantage edition?

@KevinEvangelista Жыл бұрын

Dude, I totally agree. My review of this laptop comes out this week, and I touch on that subject. It looks like there were last-minute changes to a lot of ASUS' products this year, and there's a huge miscommunication between the production side and the marketing side. Hopefully they get that fixed soon.
