I use a dongle currently to connect; hdmi, ethernet, keyboard, mouse and a thumb drive to my hp spectre (over thunderbolt) would this work on this laptop?
Would this be a good laptop for creative work such as Photoshop, Premiere, etc.? As you mentioned, it has a Pantone-graded screen. So I am curiois especially because I am looking for a computer with a good build and probably long lifespan in comparison to thin, style-forward ultrabooks.
@0:31 it is not even a competition anymore. it destroys the i9 in every aspect (more power-efficient, more powerful(unless you get a thick and power-hungry i9 laptop), better thermals and battery life). c'mon it is not even close. in fact, even if you get a thick and power-hungry i9, 4900HS beats it in some tests. 2 areas in which Intel has bigger values: price-tag and TDP.
why nobody is talking about the fan noise level, I have bought this laptop and used it only a day then returned it. Unless the laptop is run at performance fan level the games I have tested with did not perform well. ( Total War: Warhammer II, World of warships) when the games were performing ok, the fans were blowing at 4000+ RPM and that is kind of annoying. Not sure if anyone can enjoy a game at that noise level. I think eGPU is the way to go. Also, there is a recognizable heat felt in the keyboard area while typing if the computer runs at a high fan level for a while.
,i have 4 choices : Mag 15 (i7-9th, 1660ti) , Lenovo y740 ( i7-8th,2070), G14 ( r7-4800h, 1660ti ) helios 300 (i7-9th,1660ti) which one is better about , build quality , keyboard, display , experience, thermal ... which one is better for budget and experience ?
WHy do i read a lot this machine has throttling issues and kind of bad cooling. Isnt a gaming laptop supposed to be able to run at full throttling without heating up???

Don’t want a powerhouse don’t know shit about computers but can this handle modern warfare and other titles like that a steady frame rate and good performance?
Seems like this could be my next laptop if need be. Will keep a tab on this for sure
I use a dongle currently to connect; hdmi, ethernet, keyboard, mouse and a thumb drive to my hp spectre (over thunderbolt) would this work on this laptop?
Good detailed review 👍
Hi! Did you guys check the screen? is it good for photo or video editing? Thank you
Would this be a good laptop for creative work such as Photoshop, Premiere, etc.? As you mentioned, it has a Pantone-graded screen. So I am curiois especially because I am looking for a computer with a good build and probably long lifespan in comparison to thin, style-forward ultrabooks.
Macbook pro 13 vs asus zephyrus g14 ??
For more reliable years??
When will be ready to sell worldwide?
imagine if this thing had a screen with decent response times....
i know right..
Can i upgrade the ram and the storage later on? Does the g14 have another slot for storage or m.2 or smthin?
Do the speakers have light?
i just got this laptop its absolutely amazing!!! Valorant at 200 fps
Can’t wait to get it my current laptop is at 10-20 frames in valorant lmao
@0:31 it is not even a competition anymore. it destroys the i9 in every aspect (more power-efficient, more powerful(unless you get a thick and power-hungry i9 laptop), better thermals and battery life). c'mon it is not even close. in fact, even if you get a thick and power-hungry i9, 4900HS beats it in some tests. 2 areas in which Intel has bigger values: price-tag and TDP.
why nobody is talking about the fan noise level, I have bought this laptop and used it only a day then returned it. Unless the laptop is run at performance fan level the games I have tested with did not perform well. ( Total War: Warhammer II, World of warships) when the games were performing ok, the fans were blowing at 4000+ RPM and that is kind of annoying. Not sure if anyone can enjoy a game at that noise level. I think eGPU is the way to go. Also, there is a recognizable heat felt in the keyboard area while typing if the computer runs at a high fan level for a while.
Any one know whether 1080p version (120 Hz) with RTX 2060 will be available in gray or not ?
How was it on video editing? Can this be for content creators too?
I’m waiting for the answer
Great review sir. The laptop AND the video 👌
Hey i thought it only had white backlighting???
There's a black version with red backlighting.
How does it handle Adobe premiere?
right now adobe works better in intel, but that's the only place where intel shines. i m sure in future amd cpus will support adobe better than intel.
I hope.
,i have 4 choices : Mag 15 (i7-9th, 1660ti) , Lenovo y740 ( i7-8th,2070), G14 ( r7-4800h, 1660ti ) helios 300 (i7-9th,1660ti) which one is better about , build quality , keyboard, display , experience, thermal ... which one is better for budget and experience ?
Also consider TUF Gaming A15
WHy do i read a lot this machine has throttling issues and kind of bad cooling. Isnt a gaming laptop supposed to be able to run at full throttling without heating up???
How is the response time of its screen?
