None just got a new laptop, hp pavilion 15 gaming with a i5 1650 and 1tb ssd and 32gb ram, pretty cool machine I recommend you review one, It’s quite easy to get your hands on through the hp website so, I recommend checking it out, nice video Dave!
ATTENTION TO ALL PEOPLE GOING TO BUY THE M16! What most people aren't talking about is the issue of how this device and the best buy models are getting BRICKED after updates to its BIOS. I personally ordered one and returned it because playing Russian roulette with an expensive system is not a game I could afford. There is thread in reddit which you can find and there are reports of many people who have undergone a BIOS update and in the end were stuck in a boot loop and essentially bricked their devices. To make things worse even the replacement units are affected by this issue. Please don't trust the positive reviews of it. And if you are getting one make sure you are covered under warranty.
I bought the g15 couple of month ago. I had an awful beginning experience with asus world: serious bleeding due to bent panel, bios problems, scratched display due to metal framing of the keyboard hitting the screen while the laptop was closed. A part from these and some other problems, that actually stressed me out seriously, and that i will have to repair contacting customer service, the unit is awsome. I have the 5800H + 3060, so the cheapest among the ones mounting last generation CPU and GPU. I can ensure that FPS obtained on HZD and every other game in the list using the i9 3060 are perfectly comparable to the ones i obtain with my unit. Like litterally i get that FPS playing ULTRA. G15 does not have the camera, so that is an issue: i bought an external webcam for 30 euros (~35 bucks) and i definitely opened my eyes over what actual video quality means. With that low price you can step up the game to a prover level. If you just want to video call and make it quick you can use MyAsus, that lets you use your phone camera as an external camera, linking via hotspot and bluetooth. M16 camera is the usual crappy laptop camera The display is not the brightest, in that case i have to give it to the M16 that har live 450 nits. I never needed more brightness, but headroom is always good. What i don't like about M16 is the absence of the chin. Display aspect ratio becomes odd, you can cover up the lowest portion ov the screen with the laptop body, cause it's lower, and heat vents pump hot air directly on the screen. Plys your head is gonna be a little bit more cramped down, to reach that lower regions. Full screen is something that you can do on laptop that have the screen hinged at the same level of the keyboard, not on these units. Thunderbolt 4 in mine is missing due to amd CPU. That i tought i would never need in my entire life. Now I'm thinking about coming back from study or work and being able to plug a single cable, to turn the unit in a desktop setup. Like external dual monitor with high refresh rate, mouse, keyboard, headphones, speakers, external fast HDD station. That is actually bothering me. A latop is not bound for life, but if you plan to keep this for 6-7 years you neet to thing about this. Fan noise is something real. Like you go to the library and you can turn your G15 to silent mode. On the other had your M16 is not gonna run completely silent, and looking at the graphs, RPM is gonna bother you. Seriously. M16 is not flat, is a little bit thinner on the front, and thicker near the hinges. This would personally bother me and. Also is considerably thicker that M16. I personally would go again with the G15. Also I do some computational Physics at university and multicore performance is something you need to consider. Intel is gonna run hot in that scenario. Like 90 degrees hot. If you are into programmig, computing, symulations and compiling, you need to buy an AMD unit. If you are a professional who uses CAD or videoediting, maybe an intel unit is better suited. I was also very unluky with my first asus encounter. I never had an asus unit. I knew this could happen, and it has beed quite exausting. The battery situation is mental. I easily get 9 hours of screen on with windows mode in armoury and battery save mode in setting. Shut down backlit keyboard and you have all day pc. I would not trade that with and intel chip. Too bad power efficency. I bought the G15 also carried by dave's review, because i really needed a new pwerful pc, that was well built and that i could play on, since i don't have a desktop build. Hope i was informative. If anyone need answers just ask.
From someone who owns the 2021 i7 3060 version, I can say this thing doesn't really get loud if you're just using it for productivity or studying...barely even makes any noise. It starts making noise only if processing a big download. Even while using somewhat demanding software such as Solidworks or other 3d software it is not that loud. The only time it actually get as loud as I have heard people say it is while gaming, which happens to all gaming laptops. Even though I only bought it cause I could not get the g15 anywhere, I definitely do not regret it.
Wish they could do an AMD with the screen, TB4 and PD, and a webcam. RIght now, AMD seems to be more efficient in terms of thermal and power demand resulting in longer battery life as well.
I like the M16 more than the G15 because of the much wider range for heat spread, it is a real issue when computers dont have enough room , but I have to say both are really good machines
More competition is healthy. One company dominating the market will make them price their products at any number they want. AMD has been really going at it! Fully supporting them. But I still want Intel to swing back even if I don’t like them a lot lol.
Im currentyl watching this on the Asus M16, and i can tell you, this laptop has been amazing. It kills all the games i play and the screen is the most beautifull panel. I love this laptop.
So for Blender use which should, I get? I don't game whatsoever. I just want to get it for modeling, animation, and rendering. What would the battery life be like? And better price range affordability-wise?
Great to see Intel stepping upto AMD’s challenge and producing good chips for laptops! Competition is always good! whew! Thanks Dave for the short and succinct review 🙏🏾
The thing with Dave2D's reviews is that he presents the more practical aspects (with accompanying technical details) of why we choose laptops or any other gear, and this is the kind of thing why his channel became very popular: he connects with both the nerds and the 'common' or less technical people. Unlike other laptop reviewers who explain performance and numbers in detail, Dave2D's approach is to engage his audience immediately on why the laptop is good or not. @ 1:01, he even did not try to explain the Cinebench or benchmarking numbers between Intel's new CPUs vs Ryzen's because, come on, you can just pause and see for yourself that it's virtually a tie.
Undervolting is the one main advantage Intel retains over AMD in the mobile space. It Forced me to get an 11800H. If Amd can eventually make Undervolting a thing, then it will be game on.
Really appreciate the noise test with actual clips. These are laptops people use not a package of spec numbers. Surprised by how many reviewers out there who don't get it.

Hi Dave, the biggest problem with buying an Asus laptop in Canada is that they don't sell their laptops directly on their website and redirects to resellers who either link to a different model on their website and also jack up the prices! I think Dell does a better job with their website.Hope Asus starts to sell directly!

@@justinooi6521 Depending on what you're going to use it for, it could also be worth it to use the M16 chassis and have a higher wattage GPU instead of the 80W for better cooling. Also, the display itself on the M16 is better because it gets brighter than the G15.

From what I learnt, the G15 has a CPU TDP of 35W in performance mode, but in Turbo mode it will increase to 65W. The M16’s intel chip has a default TDP of 65W. I actually expected the Turbo mode AMD chip to beat Intel.
Well the i9 variant here has 45W TDP. But hardware canucks showed that manufacturers can push intel chips to their limits without any problems. In some cases ASUS even pushes it to 70W.

Regarding the noise levels, increase of 6dB means that the intensity has doubled. M16 is 6dB louder than G15, means the sound level has doubled. That is pretty loud.
@@siontheodorus1501 oh yeah but I guess even w that advantage taken away the temps would be equal ryzen would still have greater efficiency due to its lithography
I think part of it is the size since they don't have soldered ram on the thicker laptops. But it is annoying af. Might have gone for the G15 if it didn't have the soldered ram
When are you going to get a review laptop from Alienware?? Like the new Alienware x15 and x17? those laptops looks amazing and I’m willing to drop my Colombian pesos for one of those. Hey your soooo awesome and I love your videos and the clean way that you present things. Regards my friend.
dB in relation to sound is twice the power at +3dB so being 7dB up gives slightly more than 4 times the noise power. That being said, the character of a noise has a lot to do with perceived amplitude as well. I bet they worked their asses off trying to make the cooler as quiet as possible.

From what I learnt, the G15 has a CPU TDP of 35W in performance mode, but in Turbo mode it will increase to 65W. The M16’s intel chip has a default TDP of 65W. I actually expected the Turbo mode AMD chip to beat Intel.
Well the i9 variant here has 45W TDP. But hardware canucks showed that manufacturers can push intel chips to their limits without any problems. In some cases ASUS even pushes it to 70W.
Wait what about the hot air blowing on the screen? I was looking forward to that.
Daaaaaave - 3 x DFV!!! How big of a silverback are you?? Gonna have quite the upgraded studio here pretty soon then - heck even make your own tech lines! xD
Know I saw you w/ obv. apparel before - how many other easter eggs have I missed?! Ugh.
Thanks for all your hard work & integrity in the tech. space btw. Not at all surprised you're on the right side of history here as well. See you topside!
Hi Dave! You can use the program Snippaste to substitute for prtsc as you can customize which hotkeys to use, how much of the screen to capture depending on which hotkey combo, and also where to save the image (both in clipboard, and in a folder)
You're my laptop guru!
I learned so much from you and thank's for all your super-awesome reviews :)
I was thinking about waiting for the M16, but now I’m thinking about just going with the 3070 g15.
I just got my g15 a couple of weeks ago its amazing , I highly recommend it
I found your explanation of dBm and its logarithmic scale very fascinating! Great job as always 😊
Dave help me, I need to make a quick purchase, confused btw g15 (strix/zeph) model or m16
Iam an architect and need to run my rendering and 3d modelling.
Spec:
Ram: 16gb minimum
Graphic: 3060/3070
Ryzen 9/11th gen ? Which should I prefer.
when dave ranted about print screen, I felt that frfr
i use that key so much that it's impossible to imagine life without it
feels good watching on my g15
Thank you, I didn't know about the win shift s shortcut :) never needed it
Will you be doing a review on the amd advantage laptops?
Especially curious about how it stands up to the G15 and Legion 7 since those are what I'm contemplating
Thanks for a great video! Hope to see your review of asus s17 someday
Month 2 of asking Dave to review me
Hey I own you
@@faraazikram4829 ayy have one to
@@faraazikram4829 price in dollars and specs
@@user...9inety8 it's a 2018 model man, has an i5 8th gen and gtx 1050. Cost me just under 1000 dollars then (around 74k rupees).
I’m a 1650 with a intel i5 8th gen, and 1tb ssd with 32gb of ram
There's Not a single Dave2D video I've watched that I've not given thumbs to coz I've liked it 👍🏼
P.S : subbed long ago coz obviously I've loved it!!!
You're the Best Dave! Love the Ténegro at the outro as that's my fav too :)
Asus: What should we name our new laptop?
Player in mic : "I got an M16"
Asus: Say no more
Regarding the noise levels, increase of 6dB means that the intensity has doubled. M16 is 6dB louder than G15, means the sound level has doubled. That is pretty loud.
Ahh Dave2D uploaded, the only youtuber i love to watch for laptop reviews
This is the comparison I’ve been waiting for. Well done. Thank you.
AMD Laptops giving good performance: Yes
Intel laptops with good display and features: *What?*
idk i think intel's better now w 11th gen H - series
@@pranavreddy621 in terms of performance yeah, but not with power and heat
@@siontheodorus1501 power i'm pretty sure it will be less efficient, but Dave's tests show cooler temps than 5900HS. Imagine temps on HX
@@pranavreddy621 true but he also mentioned that the m16 body is taller and the fan is louder and that can help with dissipating more heat
@@siontheodorus1501 oh yeah but I guess even w that advantage taken away the temps would be equal ryzen would still have greater efficiency due to its lithography
Literally my second favorite channel of all time. Been watching for so long and I just love the direct to the point content.
Need an AMD variant with that gorgeous screen 🔥
@@mkr10001 oh poor intel fan xD
And with webcam
@Neoand12 that's why we need a G16
@@TechZ_007 lol intel is cooler than amd in cinebench
And get out entitled amd fanboy here instead of crying to make cryzen into your dream laptop
@@rarinth just stating facts with respect to real world workloads and not your synthetic numbers from cinebench lol
that little rant about ctrl+shift+s is lowkey awesome
I am really stating to hate ASUS with their solderer ram...
Alienware x series: How about we go *all the way!*
I think part of it is the size since they don't have soldered ram on the thicker laptops. But it is annoying af. Might have gone for the G15 if it didn't have the soldered ram
@@Dashitishere22 Same here. But I actually returned mine due to their known speaker issues.
@@cameronbosch1213 yeah definitely a good reason to return it. I feel like somehow laptop speakers have gotten worse over the years.
At the very beginning I thought the computer was floating and did not see his hand holding it up. I was so confused LOL
Oh no, I was so proud of my ventriloquist joke :'(
lmao
And what was that?
@@hashhacker2130 I'm sorry mam, the six people who liked that comment are the only chosen ones

Those wallpapers on Dave's laptops are pretty cool
That's a really nice screen
didnt get like as usual huh
?
When are you going to get a review laptop from Alienware?? Like the new Alienware x15 and x17? those laptops looks amazing and I’m willing to drop my Colombian pesos for one of those. Hey your soooo awesome and I love your videos and the clean way that you present things. Regards my friend.
I’m actually super happy I went with the G15. Amazing computer 💻
Print screen is king, the only issue is that it doesn't work well with dual screens and that makes me sad
dB in relation to sound is twice the power at +3dB so being 7dB up gives slightly more than 4 times the noise power. That being said, the character of a noise has a lot to do with perceived amplitude as well.
I bet they worked their asses off trying to make the cooler as quiet as possible.
the DFV at 4:05, looks like we got an ape over here
where do I buy this? I can't find it anywhere
I like the way you run your finger down things in the b roll
