Good product, not disappointed.

This laptop is a classic representative of ASUS: cool hardware, good price, but full of little things that greatly spoil life. In short, the devil is in the details and the quality of ASUS is often lame. The attached photo shows what the death screens look like on this miracle. :) Better take something with a good IPS display. And if the budget allows - with micro-LED / mini-LED.

Pros
  • 1) 4K OLED display, bright, 16:10 aspect ratio. Divine Black! 2) Combination of AMD Ryzen 7 and RTX 3050. 3) Relatively light and compact for a 16" laptop. 4) No throttling was noticed. 5) Instant fingerprint scanner. 6) Nice keyboard 7) Large comfortable touchpad 8) Long battery life (managed to live up to 8 hours) 9) Pleasant body materials 10) Not the most meager set of ports
Cons
  • 1) OLED matrix of the old generation. Here I see what I once experienced many years ago on the Samsung Galaxy S4: it is impossible to get a snow-white white, everything is noticeably green. It is especially visible after a laptop with an IPS display and after the display of the Samsung Galaxy S10 (its modern AMOLED has a fairly "pure" white) 2) Ghosting on display. I did not expect to get this on OLED! If you work in one window for a long time and then abruptly switch to another, you may see the silhouette of the previous window for a while. I'm afraid this is a sign that OLED burn-in will be a problem on this laptop. 3) A black bar that periodically appears on the screen in the style of "25th frame" Periodically, the top quarter of the display turns black for a fraction of a second. I thought the display cable was damaged - but no, I twisted and turned the laptop during operation, changed the angle of the lid, the problem did not appear. I thought it was a problem with the vidyuhi - I ran "FurMark" 3 times in a row, the problem did not appear. I changed the Nvidia driver from Studio to the game one - the problem began to appear terribly often. I'm back - just like before. Infuriates! 4) Very noisy During office work, the coolers are off, but if they turn on, then immediately at 2400 rpm. And in high performance mode, they spin up to an incredible 7000 rpm. Not throttling, but noisy like a hair dryer. 5) There is only 1 USB Type C port, and charging through it is not supported. 6) Wi-Fi falls off tightly when you wake up from sleep. Infuriates! 7) The keyboard backlight falls off - sometimes the laptop forgets that it is on, you have to manually turn it on again. Infuriates! 8) The touchpad is installed unevenly: the gap on the left is noticeably larger than on the right. Just like my ASUS eight years ago. 9) The charging port seems to have been loosened out of the box. 10) Windows boot speed is the same as on an 8 year old laptop with a 550 MB/s SSD, despite the fact that here the SSD has a read speed of more than 3 GB/s. 11) Fingerprints are very visible on the black case.
