[@CHRoOMAX]

It's a laptop, a lap-top. It's meant to be portable, flexible, and used on-the-go. 6:36 Concludes it, really, if you're a student, or soon to be one. 9 hours and 30 minutes on the G15 is massive and easily enough for a full workday of notetaking and light usage, with added benefits of staying cooler, consistently quieter and looking slightly sleeker, compared to the M16's very mediocre 5 hours and 30 minutes with a more inconsistent noise that doesn't leave much in the way of peace of mind. The bigger screen on the M16 is nice in theory, and it looks better, but in terms of actual productivity, it really doesn't add much since most professional applications are optimized for 16:9, with the big exception of Office apps, where the verticality does make a difference. However, neither of these laptops are right for you if you're looking for maximum performance in a laptop plus 16:10, that would be the Legion 5 Pro, and if you're looking for a laptop that does laptop things very well, the G15 is hard to beat.

Watching this on my 2020 G14. Having it for a year I really love it. The main sell point for me is a very efficient CPU. An all around laptop for work and gaming. I bring this to work w/o the power brick because it easily last around 6 hours doing office work and when I need to charge a simple USB-C charger is enough. The weight of the G14/G15 is the big sell point, G14 being only 3.5 pounds/1.6kg make it very portable. I will use this one for 3 years before upgrading.

Is it just the rubber foot on the M16 that is taller? Making the M16 seems thicker?

[@romedion1536]

Hey Mat, a few days ago you showed the price of a 300hz laptop at 1,499. Where can I find the ROG at that price?

[@MatthewMoniz]

ASUS ROG Strix G15 but the sale is now over - go.magik.ly/ml/197sz/

[@romedion1536]

@@MatthewMoniz thank you sir❤️

Hmm yeah the M16 looks nice but as far as I can tell it only comes with a 3060 in North America. According to a post in r/ZephyrusM16 earlier today, ASUS doesn’t plan on releasing even the 3070 skew in NA, and they’re not even making a 3080 version. For me it’s the G15. I just wish it had the M16’s display.

[@siddj08]

How much better is the 3070 on the g15 vs 3060 on thr M16? I'm in the same dilemma

[@AliReza-tf5hl]

2021 Zephyrus G15 much improved than 2020. Some points yet to iMproved: A) 2 upgradeable RAM slot. B) Bright 16 inch display alike G16 scale with 16:10 ratio. C) Smartphone selfie cam as Webcam. D) Speaker with more bass. E) 5 degree more incline. F) Large side vents to not heat screen. G) Place a full capacity USB C port in between left vent and hinge. H) Place DC power in - beside Kensington lock.

I got my m16 for college work and gaming, mostly gaming, haha. I liked seeing those fps speeds on the g15 better to be honest. I also need to say that my temps for the m16 out of the box were disgustingly high. Disgustingly high. I had to change some settings to get them lower. The time had come to clean my laptop out.. I cleaned the fans, but it was time to clean and replace the liquid metal.. The CPU had BURN MARKS ON IT!!! I couldn't get it off, but I made sure that I coated both the CPU and GPU with a beautiful fine coat of liquid metal, then I thermal pasted the other bits. The temps were lower, but I dread having to see my computer get so hot again.. The keyboard was uncomfortably hot with stock settings, btw.

[@Drobiczak]

Just got my M16 and it is really hot indeed. What settings did you change to get it to run cooler?

[@ibrahimborbara260]

Imtrying to make chose one of those.m16 i9 3060 or g15 r9 rtx 3070. Theyre the same price where i live.and im wondering if i want portabilty is the m16 thick or what cuz from what ive seen it feels like its kinda thick where as the g15 is slim and the same size like the m16 gets thicker to the back yk.what do u guys think?

[@gerard4441]

ill buy one when they put the G15 in the M16 chassis

[@berecklxss1382]

well for me the m16 is good cause its just so cool, but they both are too good for to buy so... actually can you do the new frameworks laptop its also a pretty good laptop.

[@asdswift6715]

pls compare next the rog m16 vs rog zephyrus s17. thank you

[@marcomilo7566]

Do you think the omen 15 2020 is a good laptop? I bought it last year and I would like your opinions on it (i5 10300 RTX 2060 16GB ram) it been working really well in the last year but it has a lot of cooling problems because of the i5 which is not really enough for the 2060. Next time I’m going to buy a better one but I wanted your opinion on it as I would like to know what’s wrong with it and because I respect your opinion in general. Thanks anyway love your videos

[@BVos-jd5bk]

Love the sticker placement comments.

[@invasivesurgery4595]

How do people get the G15 laptop to run with a total of 48GB of RAM? 8 is soldered to the MB with only 1 RAM slot available?

[@demoniq1128]

Is it okay to play in laptop but with the big TV or i need to buy monitor ?

[@debrato2356]

Bro just wanted to ask what's the difference between these g series and m series???

[@chinachansu190]

when matt said that nothing happened to the screen in weeks of using it in mining.. I was like DAaYYUUMMMNN get me this laptop ahahha i wish it's real though XD

[@amesgamez]

I can only find the M16 with the RTX 3060. Is there a material performance difference playing games with the RTX 3060 over the RTX 3070 card (besides the extra 2gb of vram with the 3070)?

[@CHRoOMAX]

Yes, we're talking 20-30%, and the G15 even comes with a 3080 if you got the extra bucks. The reason for this is down to the fact that the Intel processors use more power and so more of the thermal budget must go to the CPU, while in the G15, with the more efficient Ryzen 9, more of that thermal budget is available for the graphics card.

[@storm91229]

Comparing these to the new MSI Creator Z16 would definitely make an interesting video😉😉😉!

[@uladzimir7638]

What you are not taking about (but i'm sure you know) is the stupid port placement on the left side. Which make it laptop unusable if connect all wired stuff (ethernet, dc, mic) you even cannot put your arm on table. The other thing is ventilation design, frying the display. A lot of questions to this review.
