    I love the white version of it, I would love to see you review the white version but however the reason why I condiser on not getting this gaming laptop is because there's been so many bad reviews on it running so hot... overheating itself where it reboots... I'm i'm sketchy on this laptop

    • @TechGuyBeau
      @TechGuyBeau  22 дня назад

      There is a new g16 with AMD CPU coming later this year. Now that I would be interested in. (Theoretically) since it should come in white and have the new 9000 series AMD. Perhaps they will refresh the g14 with the new cpu, hard to say.

  • @JoshCravesTech
    @JoshCravesTech 18 дней назад +3

    Idk, I think you approached this one a bit negatively. I can’t say I blame you given the price in Canada. If I had bought it at that price then I’d probably also go into it with a more negative mindset as well. Doesn’t seem like you get the value for what it’s worth there. But overall this laptop is much better than what is shown here. The thermals and performance are all a massive step up above other ultrabooks, and not as compromised compared to other 14” laptops as you make it seem. And of course the battery life is much better than comparable gaming laptops or even some other ultrabooks in its category.
    The 1800p display puts it behind in raw benchmarks (if the resolution is unaccounted for), but at 90W, that GPU still hits 90% of the same performance as thicker laptops. Look at Jarrod’s Tech’s review of this same laptop when he measures QHD gaming performance. It’s right up there with the big boys with similar specs. Of course it’s no 2023 G14 with a 4090, but you simply can’t get performance like this in a laptop this thin and light anywhere else.
    Also a correction to the keyboard part: the keycaps are bigger than last year’s G14 and have the same travel distance (1.7mm) so it is not a downgrade.

    • @JoshCravesTech
      @JoshCravesTech 18 дней назад +3

      Also I’m not trying to bag on you, I appreciate your reviews and effort. I just think people in the US or regions where this is cheaper will have a MUCH more positive experience with the same laptop. And they already are. Everyone I’ve chatted with who bought one is in love. Outside of potential defects of course, lol.

    • @TechGuyBeau
      @TechGuyBeau  18 дней назад +2

      Actually I have done back-to-back testing on several laptops. You’ll be surprised to see that many business level ultra books are able to match this “gaming laptop”. The issue here is that ASU has decided to piggyback, or perhaps cherry pick the Republic of gamers name, whereas this is a true and true creator laptop.
      The issue is that creator laptops are just as good as this laptop gaming tasks now. So why would you pay two times as much for this laptop when you can just get some book with the same specs and the same or even better performance for less money
      This issue becomes increasingly when you are looking at the 4080 and 4090 models of this laptop, which perform pathetic for their reported gaming class, specifically because they are not gaming laptops anymore. They are creator laptops that can game, this is made increasingly evident by the significantly reduced cooling capacity, and Dramatically reduced wattage.

    Informative! It's just weird that the pricing seems to be different across countries. I mean, this is not a cheap laptop, but the base model G14 in my country with a 4050 16GB RAM is around 2K CAD (with a discount it can drops to 1.5K-ish). With 3K CAD, it's gonna be the G16 with 4070 and 32GB.

      On the plus side, the new AMD iGPUs launching next month apparently see a 50% performance uplift. So that will make 1080p 14” gaming incredibly viable (should be performing around a 3050 mobile theoretically)

      There isn’t really any contest. The legion is vastly superior in terms of performance.
      The legion, especially with the 3.2k screen will also have an outstanding screen
      The g14 primarily on had the advantage or portability and better blacks. You may want to look at the 14” legion slim OLED. It has a similar screen and also easily outperforms, but also will benefit from AMD battery life

      @@TechGuyBeau I have been thinking of getting a new laptop geared more towards performance while still staying with the more productivity end. The g14 this year has a macbook like experience which is nice. I have been debating between the g14 and the lenovo legion slim 7i. As of right now, I own an HP Envy x360 with AMD Ryzen 7 5000 series cpu and AMD Radeon Graphics GPU. It is a good laptop, but for running applications like Fusion 360, there exists some lagging and slow performance. In retrospect, I want a laptop that offers more powerful performance that has the ability to game, and something I can also use for my everyday work (plan on getting it once I enter college).

      If you are gaming then absolutely not. The 4080 and 4090 in these laptops run incredibly poor. They are severely wattage limited. I actually have a video coming one of these wattage GPU in a laptop. You will be very disappointed in the performance
      If you are doing and want the best performance get a 4080 or 4090 laptop that is actually a gaming laptop, not a creator laptop like the G4 and G 16. If you are going to get a 16 for gaming, there’s really no point going above a 4070, as the performance of the higher end GPU will be quite poor
      I would only recommend a 16 if you are a high-level creative type, and need the extra V ram for things like engineering task. Since it will be relatively abysmal for the price and for the chips capabilities at higher watts
