Ana –
Vengo de una Asus TUF A15 Ryzen 7 con una RTX 3050/16GB de RAM. Esta Rog G16 i7 RTX4060/16 GB RAM la supera por bastante.
La laptop me llego en perfectas condiciones, sin backlight bleeding ni problemas en la tarjeta grafica. Tampoco el famoso “coil whine”.
La pantalla representa mucho mejor el color y da un poco más brillo que una laptop gamer de gama baja. Bocinas decentes con cierto bass a mi parecer, unas dos rayitas más de volumen y es perfecta.
La sensación del teclado y la construcción general de esta laptop es superior a lo común.
Juegos AAA me los corre excelente. Entre 40fps(high/ultra) a 80fps(medium). En donde se vuelven notables los ventiladores pero tienen un sonido que a mi parecer es acostumbrable.
En tareas básicas en Adobe e internet es realmente silenciosa y no se calienta.
En cuanto a programas de renderizado como referencia de una RTX3050 mobile me tardaban 15 seg por renders, Esta RTX4060 me tarda no más de 6 seg. (Renderizo mobiliario urbano)
En cuanto a la entrega tengo la teoría que me la abrió la aduana porque la caja venía con el sello cortado pero todo bien.
Es un poco más pesada que una laptop gamer básica, me he adaptado bien, sin embargo es algo que notarás.
Update: La laptop no ha presentado mayor problema. Sin embargo después de unos meses de transportandola ya me presentó backlight bleeding ligero. Lo considero normal dado el uso que le doy. Mi recomendación es que la transporten con cuidado.

Bueno, la caja llego algo maltratada y pero no afecto nada al producto (laptop). Como también llego abierta en el aspecto que el sello del empaque ya venia rotó, pero la laptop no sufrío ningun daño, apenas me llego y cheque la parte de la pantalla o en general todo el hardware viene bien, no le e notado fujas de luz muy grave o que se vean demasiado en plena oscuridad, lo que si note un poco es cuando cierro la pantalla, se nota que si es muy delicado por que se marca esa parte las fugas pero no es muy notorio (durante el día) , solo espero que con tiempo no le afecte, en total oscuridad y con el brillo al máximo si se notan las fujas de luz no se si eso afecte con el tiempo de modo que se vea más visible las fugas de luz o sea al normal en este tipo de pantallas led
O tal vez deba aplicar garantía dentro del mes que me queda?
Y en cuestión de almacenamiento, si lo vas a utilizar para juegos, tiene que comprar una ssd por lo menos de 1 tb,
Para los 16 gb de ram si están bien
El Windows 11 home si viene activado,
No se si fue una actualización que mando asus pero, cuando trate de actualizar los drivers de la laptop, también me actualizo la bios, no se que tan bueno málo sea, por el momento no me afecto nada en cuestión de arranque o algo así,
La bisagra se ve que es resistente,
La parte del teclado se siente bien, no se si en esa parte es de aluminio, por que no se siente que sea plástico, la carcasa y la parte detras de la pantalla si es plástico,
Si eres de México y lo configuración del teclado a español con la ñ, si va hacer posible, siempre y cuando la configures versión latino, te recomiendo comprar una pegatina de la ñ y @ para identificar en las teclas donde van
En general me parece una gran laptop en su categoría
Esta es mi primer laptop gamer y espero sacarle provecho, no solo en juegos si no en mis estudios que principalmente la quiero.
En caja solo viene :
Laptop,
Cargador (dura 1:30 a 2hr en cargar completamente) tipo americano
Manuales (básicos y garantía de 90 días aplicables solo en EUA)
La garantía que aplica es solo los 30 días de Amazon, no se aplicará garantía en México después de los 30 así que es recomendable que hagas todas pruebas duraste ese tiempo
Y si aplica los 3 meses gratis de xbox obvio pagando primero el primer mes!,

Es genügt zu sagen, dass Gamer sicher sein können, dass dieses Strix G16-Modell nicht nur ihre Spiele ausführt, sondern auch eine der besten Spezifikationen bietet, die derzeit in einem 16-Zoll-Nvidia-Laptop zu finden sind. 4060.

Rceiving a warranty extension from ASUS for this Review*
Right out of the gate this laptop is impressive. Everything I’ve thrown at it, it’s played very well. The new 40 series graphics cards features really help with this. The laptop is sturdily built with no deck flex around the keyboard. The screen is 1200p which is a little more than FHD and in the 16″ size it looks great. No lightbleed and a strong contrast ratio. Yes you can easily open it up and replace the memory and add another m.2 SSD. The memory is dual channel and the m.2 size is the full length size. Yes the thing is quiet even under some light load. Of course the fans will ramp up if you throw something very demanding at it BUT looking at temps for the CPU/GPU show that it’s very well cooled. I haven’t seen the CPU go over 85c nor the GPU over 65c as of yet.
The power plug is in an odd spot though, it’s in the center of the right hand side and with the power brick being so large that might cause trouble for some when trying to position it somewhere. There’s an odd issue with the 3.5mm headphone jack where using an earbud with an inline microphone can cause some weird sound issues. Upon looking online I see that low impedance headphones might suffer from these sorts of issues on certain laptops. In my testing using expensive headphones with high impedance show no sign of this issue so that could very well be the issue. I also find the trackpad can be a bit funky, it will sometimes not register clicks and more frequently won’t register two finger scrolling correctly. I’ve tried reinstalling drivers and tweaking settings for both the audio/trackpad issue but nothing has seemed to help. This is a new laptop after all so I’m hoping these issues can get sorted out soon.

I wanted to buy another laptop for work purposes but also be useful for travelling and for gaming so I saw this laptop for sale during Black Friday! Excellent purchase! Here is my pros and cons after a week of owning this:
Con:
1. 1920 x 1200 FHD 165Hz Display is very much an downgrade against my Legion 5 Pro 16″ 2560 x 1600 IPS LCD 165Hz Display… But I guess with the parts offered, ASUS had to make some budget cuts somewhere I guess… (for the model I’ve chosen and not wanting to spend more than $1500 USD).
2. Automatic MUX Switching is annoying… it optimizes which option to best suit for your current usage at the time (e.g. if you ran an game vs closing the game and brings you to the desktop). The automatic switch seems like its great and all but it ruins the display setting and when an game is playing, it switches again and sends you back to the desktop and ruins the display setting/resolution once more… Its best to just set it on the dedicated GPU option so you dont have to deal with this…
3. Standard SSD Capacity is too low (again with cost saving measures but literally everyone these days just buy additional SSD stick anyways)… so snagged an SK.Hynix P41 SSD 2TB stick on sale to manually install for loading heavy application and games on there; really easy to install and easy to unscrew the back; there is an empty NVMe Gen4 M.2 2280 slot for you to install your SSD
Works Great after installing correctly and no Issues now! (make sure after install of SSD, just load into Windows and open up disk management to reformat (quick format! never full on SSD!) No need to tinker with BIOS setting…Do not tighten the SSD screws too much where the stick bends! thats incorrect! screw in ever so slightly so that the stick itself wont lodge out or move at all.
Pros:
1. RTX 4060 8GB – 140W Max TGP
2. i7-13650HX – beats my Ryzen-7 5800H on my Legion 5 Pro
3. RGB bar looks awesome!
4. Battery 90Wh
Neutral:
1. RGB Keys – heard mixed reviews on ASUS’s design on this; of course, the Legion 5 RGB keyboard design is the best of the best but this is just okay and its not too bad in my eyes.
2. Same weight and nearly the same dimensions as my Legion 5 Pro so portability is the same-ish but way better than my old MSI gaming laptop from 2017 where you can put this in your backpack and still have room to put other accessories and such.
This is all I’ve noticed currently but either way, its a great mid-tier gaming laptop! I can run cyberpunk all max setting without issues or framerate drops and every other AAA game titles up to this point… This laptop should last an long time until AAA games becomes more graphically intense and requiring more processing power… but again this is the best you can get for your money and highly recommend!

SSD capacity is a little, I used it for CAD drawings

Excelentes acabados y funcionamiento.

The media could not be loaded.
The specs are really good for this laptop. I love how you can even play with 100 FPS or even more in some games (Halo infinite, Apex Legends, The Finals) with the silent mode (without overheating or having the max power of the CPU/GPU). If you want to get over 100+, the turbo mode (taking full advantage of the GPU/CPU) will be great + the 165.1 Hz. The only “issue” (not issue honestly if you do not see this as problem) is the turbo mode makes the laptop sounds a bit loudly which is normally when you are utilizing it with the full capacity. Other than that, you can have an amazing experience playing on this mode.
This version specifically does not have the numeric pad included. I originally thought it was going to be, but the i9 version has it, this one does not.
Sound experience is good enough considering this is a gaming laptop, but by using headsets, the sound changes considerably, so good point to have the direct connection
Wifi is the fastest and best one I’ve ever seen personally. I have played online getting 80+ pin (considering I’m from Colombia and pin does not get below that normally) easily. The experience can change a bit with cable, but there is not a big change at least on my end. Long story short, wifi is really attractive if you do not mind losing or having some ms more.
Finally, this is something NOT related to the laptop. When I placed the order, I trusted on the platform by adding “automatic” location. This caused a delay of 5 business days. I contacted Amazon and the delivery company and Amazon could not change the shipment address because it had been already shipped. After several back and forth calls, none of the companies was able to support or make it faster which I understand, but I felt super uncomfortable knowing my order was in my city and Amazon did not attempt to address the situation. So please be careful and I recommend to add the location manually BEFORE making the order.
If you are looking to jump into a medium/high performance laptop with no more than 1,500, this is a great option.
