HUGE thanks to Best Buy for sponsoring this video #ad and making it possible to continue to post content about the great laptops coming out in 2024. The Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 is looking better than ever. Thinner, lighter, and even noticeably quieter. One area that did not see a massive leap was the performance. This is quite common amongst many laptops in 2024. So far there is a heavy emphasis on efficiency, which seems to be keeping PC OEMs from providing more performance.

My big 2024 epiphany was to go 18 inches 4060 and found out they upsell you the 1440p almost every build. In retrograde.. maybe I shoulda went 14 inch not 1440p resolution. lol
Great video and attention to detail! I did see some videos comparing fan noise using silent profile with the 2024 G16. The on the fan on the G16 would be noisy on silent profile and turn on at odd times when the system was not working hard. Did you experience any of this when testing with the silent profile?
ben
For editing how to choose: this g14 or g16 with intel 9 ultra ????
Is your model broken? I notice the screen wobbles and shakes even when you try to support it with your hand on the hinge, it seems it wobbles even when you touch your desk.
Is the ram non upragradable on all versions of the 2024 ?
Hey Ben. Here's a few things that i think might help the video quality improve (from a person who knows nothing about videography). Color grading should definitely be top priority, since some of the shots look a little washed out and unsaturated. The other is using a gimbal stabilized camera for the b-roll shots of the product.
Yea non upgradable ram was a deal breaker, bought this and a g16 and had to return it, now i have an alienware m16 r2 and a razer blade 14, o was always running out of ram....I did love the built quality and how thin both thw g14 and g16 were
Nice video, I would love a 3-way G14 comparison the last 2 and the 6800hs CPU 6800s GPU. that is currently available at about $799 and I suspect that is still the best bang for buck.
I really dont understand why in my country the silver one is not available with the 4070 and 32gb.... whyyyyyy
Thank you for providing this review. What seems quite troubling that it does not come with a higher RAM capacity, even the option of 64GB RAM soldered on...
How might this compare with the new Razer Blade 14 in 2024?
Again, thank you for your review.
It's meant for use as a premium mid-range creative/gaming device that's why you won't see 64gb RAM in this. If it had capability for that much RAM, they wouldn't pair it with only a 4070
wich is better in gaming performance?: Rog Flow X16 (ryzen 9 6900hs / / RTX 3070 ti) 2022
Rog Flow X16 (i9 13900h / / rtx 4060) 2023
Looked at the 24 models but just wasnt sold, ended up with a 23 g14 4080. More than pleased with it and my decision.
8:47 heavy bouncing alone in a stop factor for me. Thank you for honest review! 👍
Just ordered mine! Coming from an 8 year old Samsung Notebook Spin 7, this upgrade will feel monumental
You should include the acer triton 14. Currently @ $1200 on Amazon
Got my 2014 G14 with 4060 and I’m super happy with it. It exceeded my expectations and is more elegant than plastic looking laptops.
This or the 2023 model Strix G16 for pretty much same price??
g14 if battery life
g16 if performance
This 2024 version it's clearly not an upgrade from last year. Fan noise and thermals are still a "problem" right? (a third fan? are they crazy?)
I'm looking for a 14 inch gaming laptop and, to be honest, I'm convincing myself on going for the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 (14'') with the Ryzen 7, 32gb ram and rtx4060.
I don't see any other laptop that's actually worth the money, is it just me?
Same problem for me, I'm just waiting for black friday when the hype dies down and real-life problems rise for those who have it for me to choose better
@@LYNELL-kq4xv honestly, for the price as of today, I’m really thinking on pull the trigger on the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 (14’’). I don’t see that many important downsides
The fans are quieter and it's cooler than last year's model...
Screen wobble is definitely not okay
turn down the brightness on the RGB keyboard. might help your eyes... lol
G14 2023 4070 32 gig ram or 2024 4070 32 gig ram? Really confused between the two, Oled scares me, and I'm concerned about its thermals as well... am I over-spending on the 2024 model considering it future proof laptop? Or the 2023 model can also be considered future proof?
non upgradable RAM is actually a deal breaker for me. I waited for this, and just bought the ryzen 9/4060 2023 model for 1000USD from best buy. upgraded to 2tb 990pro, and 32gb memory AND still spent LESS than the 4060 2024 model. slim is fine and all, but if I would never sacrifice cooling capabilities just for it to be thinner.
The 2023 4060 model is looking like a great deal right now!
Man, the only 14" 64GB laptop out there is Lenovo Yoga 9i and it's battery life is 1.5 hours. The older 2023 G14 is barely in stock and I hear there are Quality Control problems all over the place. That even a lower Lenovo Legion Slim 5 with a 4060 has better performance. So, how can we get a 64GB + at least 4070 or 4080 laptop in 2024...?
@@eladbarispeaking on the 2023 g14
@@eladbariget a pc…
PC would be perfect for u when u want everything upgradable, there’s no point having a 14 inches laptop when it’s so thick
Is it possible for the price to drop by 200-400$ sooner or later
Most likely on black Friday
It's at $1100 right now at best buy
Ben will you do a review on the Legion 7i soon?
Yeah i am waiting for that one too
@@niklasyin6972 its very frustrating man theres no reviews other than a couple of sponsored videos from tech channels
@@JT11111 lets just hope that a real review will be out soon. And i hope that the battery time won't be an issue with the new intel 14 gen cpu
I just received a model this week. So I’ll be benchmarking it than the review will come out.
It will be a REAL review :)
@@BenGKaiser thanks alot, i am looking forward to it 👍
Is the g16 review coming?
Damn... you're literally everywhere
@@copymalty lol what?
@@JohnHarvey lul nub
Will the new oled last 5 years? Will the 32 gig ram last for 5 years? How about comparing the potential durability/duration of use for 2023 and 2024 model?
I usually have an itch to upgrade on year 2 or 3.
The redesign looks fresh af, but imo they made it too slim with the reduced performance and louder fans
Other reviewers say that fans quieter
@@4ernuy89 the third fan is quite high pitched too
I got g14 2 days ago. No high pitched noise and fan noise in performance mode are quiet. In turbo mode, you gain few fps with louder fan noise yet still no (high pitched sound) 🤷🏻.
3 fan only if you have 4070. Lower gpu only 2 fans
@@David77 So not as bad as the G16 then.
Bro look like jim Carey in pet detective
$400 difference between 16GB and 32GB of soldered memory. Asus is becoming like Apple.
And RTX 4070, not just the Ram
@@arathdelatorre9 Asus nerfed the RTX 4070 on the 2024 model. It only has a 90w TDP compared to last year's model which had a 125w TDP, probably due to the new thinner chassis. Jarrod'sTech did a gaming benchmark and found that it was one of the slowest RTX 4070 gaming laptops, just slightly faster than the RTX 4060 laptops.
Uk is so far behind and pricing is savage
It looks great for work, but the screen wobbles and a possible OLED burn-in after 24 months may be expected...
Nah Asus oled screen provided by Samsung are really excellent, got one 3y ago and no issue. And the new screens are even better
How many cases of burn-in have you heard of? Risk exists but it doesn't mean it will happen
So we still stuck on burn in? Apple Watches, smart phones, tabs - heck even the new iPad uses OLED. Most high end mastering displays are OLED today… and 2024 came with OLED monitors in all shapes and sizes
@@JBentham1523all my screens at home are OLED. My phone, watch, laptop (I got the G14), my monitor (Alienware QD OLED), my bedroom TV (LG C2) and my living room tv (Samsung S90C) - and I can’t go back to shitty lcd again
Little bounce?!...one of the wobbliest ever man!! This is terrable...and no more 180 degrees? 3rd fan like an airplane jet! Whoever buys this, should Sue Asus
I bought it. It’s quieter than my 2022 model, screen wobble I don’t notice in regular use. Idk why I would need 180 degree hinge. I enjoy the laptop.
@@capitalpi9014 Maybe quieter than 2022 model, but still airplane jet, that's problem. When you use it in eco mode with fans off, it is too warm in light use.
@@swenakYeah, I had to return mine because of the fan noise and ridiculous screen wobble.
❤❤🎉🎉
Hate the lid slash. I'd be embarrassed to use that in public. It's the 80s glam rock of modern laptop design.
😂
I personally don’t understand the slash either. The old lid design was perfect
Your channel Will GROW more if you spend time replying to comment BEN!!
Non upgradable ram... no more animatrix... no more 180 degrees... no more 4080/4090 variant... "UPGRADE"
feels more like an ultrabook rather than a gaming laptop tbh
I always saw it as them saying it's an upgrade for those comfortable with forgoing those things, I and some others I've seen & even personally know are, especially with how "if you want those, go for last year's" not only was an obvious answer when being unsaid, but also with the fact that it *didn't* go unsaid!
The 4080s are way to powerful to put into such a small form factor like if you dumb enough to get that in one of these it's just going to overheat an it will never be able to even access to wattage to get the most out of those are. Like a 4080 an def a 4090 in this would easily get beat out by a 4060 or 4070. You guys want more power buy laptop made to handle power this is made for casual gaming portability an battery anything with a 4080 an def a 4090 in it isn't made for that like you really want them to steal your money that easily?
The 4090 doesn't overheat and is significantly more powerful, no matter how you want to spin it
@@rkymtnchi503 that's actually very false you clearly just made that up. These 14 inch laptops overheat with smaller cards now you expect me to believe they don't overheat with 4090s even though they literally said that's the entire reason they took 4090 out of this specific model? Like why do people like you do this? It's clear you have no idea what you are talking about but you want to tell out false information? What do you gain from this? Let's say you still kept a 4090 in this because it's so small it's only gonna pull out enough power for barely a 4070 an you don't even get the full use of a 4090 hence the second reason they stopped selling it because people noticed that an stopped buying it . If you generally don't have a clue about something it's beat just not to talk about it
