I need help picking a new laptop; can you help me pick a new one? I’m looking for something similar to this laptop, and ASUS has been the best computer I’ve had. I had no idea that ASUS was a bad brand. I’ve had bad experience with Lenovo, Gateway, HP, Dell, Windows, Chromebook, and Apple. The only brands I haven’t tried are the premium Rog, MSI, and AlienWare; but I’ve been told that they are overpriced.

[@lostlupo]

@@Franknpipe slightly? Those are hugely off-center. It's way too uncomfortable for my hands, I sold my 15 inch HP Pavilion because my hands always ended up cramping because of the little space left at the left of the trackpad. What's even the point of the numpad when you have a whole row of keys for numbers already?? I thought it would be useful but I ended up never touching it. I'm so glad now I have a Matebook 14 with an actual palmrest...

Btw I'm not like shaming you for liking numpads and not minding off-center trackpads, this is obviously just a matter of subjective preferences.

If you are an engineering major and have to type up lab reports, or an accounting major doing online homework, trust me that Num pad is your friend.

It will sometimes crash the laptop and give me the blue screen. Other than that it is so great. The speakers are amazing. Like really really really loud while still keeping it clean. Oh, and the battery life is great. I usually turn off the 4070 and switch to the 890M ( I allocated 32 gb of ram to it lmao) while am on battery, and I can go a whole day just fine. Big ahh W.

I wanted to love the Flow X13 so bad, but it's too problematic and unreliable for me, hopefully this isn't like that given that it has more focus on work instead of play.

[@surrcram]

As a digital Illustrator and animator, It's honestly pretty difficult to find a good device strictly for drawing, and these series of devices miss the mark because of the MPP pen and refresh rate. The MPP pen needs to be charged and Wacom EMR pens completely outperform them. Refresh rate capped at 60hz is gonna be noticeable with pen delay. I can see these devices being absolutely perfect for other types of creatives but speaking strictly as an illustrator and animator, it's a miss.

[@EXDiamondDogs]

What's a good device you would recommend for drawing

[@surrcram]

@davidvang3926 If you want the full windows suite of programs, I recommend Samsung's line of Galaxy Book 360's, which are convertible laptops that use Wacom's EMR pen technology. It's the best pen experience out there which gives you the most accurate lines without wobble.

[@helios1051]

I got the Huion Kamvas pro 16 graphic tablet (one of the best mid-range graphic tablet from my experience) and it's only at 60hz but you don't notice any delay, and 2D animators never go above 24 frames per second if most of them use only 12 fps, so I don't see how refresh rate would be a problem. but yeah mpp pen sucks

[@genethebean7597]

[@Sbomb16]

It really is a shame, cause these laptops look really nice! Love the black lenovo-esque look, the screens, and overall form factors plus the performance. However, with everything going on with asus rn, it's just not worth the risk. I'd wait until asus fixes their reputation a bit before considering these, and probably until they go on sale, seeing as these are going to be pretty pricy. So about a year or two lol

[@dusk1947]

I'm shopping right now for a device that will game and let me illustrate... I was very torn between this and the Flow X16. I think the Asus Flow X16 still outshines this, handedly. Mostly on the internals; having the same level of CPU & GPU, with two upgradable sodium's, two full size/ upgradable M.2's, and a better cooling profile. And it's a 16" that's a 2-in-1, giving a fantastic workspace as a tablet. I know they're targeting this at the 'creators' and the Flow at 'Gamers'. But, if you're in this price point look at the Flow and compare before committing to either.

[@blk124]

But that does not excuse the fact that not only does their software absolutely suck, their current fiasco about their warranty coverage just being an absolute scam - they are most definitely NOT killing it right now. Unless by it you mean their reputation.

[@unstopology]

Honestly thought the price would be way more than $1600. Whenever these companies say it's for "creative" work, the price is usually pushing $2k - $3k.

[@tsang-yungwu2745]

Hi Austin, I am hesitating between Zenbook S16 or this ProArt 13". The reason I am considering these twos were because it will be using AMD AI 300 Processor, and I can game on them and get my work done. However whatever has better battery life I would go for it, and it seems Zenbook S16 will win it over ProArt. The only downside is that it is 16 inch, and it will be bigger. What would you choose between the twos? My mind is going to Zenbook S16 at this moment, since 28W TDP with that performance is very attractive.
