Imagine trying to buy a Dell laptop in 2025 with 3 CPU mfrs each supplying at least 2 generations of processors across 3 product sector siloes each with 3 quality tiers! Good luck to anyone trying to make sense of what they’re buying there. 😆

The worst design of the 2024 duo is that the SSD is inaccessible from the small cover on the back. The bottom screen must be removed which is extremely difficult to do without cracking it; and the display ribbon cable is extremely difficult to re-insert, and just forget about removing the power connector which has a metal clip that is also easy to damage. Mine flung off and shorted the motherboard. Mine got into a blue-screen "SDD inaccessible" loop after an update one day and even a factory reset or BIOS update could not fix it, nor altering BIOS settings, however, the SSD was accessible in a recovery prompt, go figure. I even removed bit locker and tried several workarounds from ASUS. All the well-known boot recovery tricks could not correct this either (dism/sfc/bootrec/etc). I basically broke the laptop trying to get the SSD out to remove classified client data before sending it into repair. $1700 mistake because of a terrible design. Beware of the same issue for the 2025 design.

The battery connector on my asus g14 (2021) shorted my first motherboard and battery. It flung out of its socket, went on the motherboard, and shorted the battery. Luckily, it was covered by warranty

Is there no longer a Zenbook Pro line? The premium body and oled with a dedicated gpu was a nice spot for me. The ROG line has this but the Zenbook Pro was nice to avoid the gamer RGB aesthetic. A zenbook pro 14 with the Strix halo chip would be interesting as well.
