Review on ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 Gaming Laptop 2020 - ๐ŸŽฎ Ryzen 7 4800HS, GTX 1650, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, VR Ready by Goro Suzuki แ Œ

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything about the product satisfied me, the price is perfect.

Config - GA401IV-HA034 : r7 4800HS, 32GB, 1TB, video 2060, WHQD screen, no OS and (hooray!) no AniMe Matrix. The laptop was purchased as a mobile workstation for programming in conjunction with two monitors - 4k and WHQD. I fiddled with it for a long time in my hands in the store - because of AniMe Matrix, the top cover seemed too massive and the laptop seemed somehow "pot-bellied". I needed a config with the maximum possible amount of RAM, without AniMe Matrix, preferably not r9. The GA401IV-HA034 was a great fit - since I had a free Windows Home license. I was very afraid that the laptop would howl and overheat - nothing like that. In office use - quiet and cool. In the productive - well, that's why it's a high performance mode. Great stuff. I recommend.

Pros
  • An excellent performance filling in a very compact package - this is its essence. Excellent battery life. As a mobile workstation - really mobile (lightweight, portable, and long lasting) compared to other coffins with powerful processors - it's just great. Good sound for a laptop.
Cons
  • The lack of a camera. The fact that the camera module was not installed is a mysterious mystery and the main disadvantage for me when thinking about purchasing this laptop. The ugly font on the keyboard is ugly and not very readable. Unaccustomed keyboard - after the standard ASUS and ThinkPado keys, the keys are a bit tall and tight . perhaps a matter of habit. AniMe Matrix is โ€‹โ€‹an incomprehensible garbage, it's good that there are configs without it. WHQD on those 14 inches is too much.
