Hey Jarrod, will you adopt me so I could get to try all new laptop every time they come out.

Great review as always! I'm considering this combo to be my next "laptop"... I'd love to see the comparison with the new X13 models and the XG Mobile with the RX 6850m XT when available and a deeper dive into linux compatibility.

[@Fr1kaD3ll37]

This video was a little diffrent than usual and it seems like you had fun making it. Keep it up, i enjoyed watching a lot!

[@Terreos]

I really hope this form factor takes off. I love tablets and honestly having one that can run full windows and play games at a reasonable level is just a dream come true. I'm tempted to sell off my current laptop for this as the niche of hooking up and egpu to this bad boy and just taking the tablet with me when I'm leave the house is honestly something I've wanted to do for years. I definitely want to see the results of using a thunderbolt egpu vs the xg mobile.

[@fallenblizzard2441]

Excited to see the G14 review

[@RaduTomy]

Thank you for weighing them! I feel that not enough reviewers talk about weight /inc charger

The review enables purchase decisions very well. The selection of noise samples is the most meaningful I have ever listened to. Many thanks!

Glad you like them!

[@hung2900]

I really love my original Asus Transformer TF101. Really wish Asus continue to make a "Transformer"-like or "Surface book"-like dock for tablets like this.

[@glensubtorq]

Having used gaming laptops for a while now, I reckon having the GPU external makes a lot more sense. I cringe at the temps I get on my laptops during extended gaming sessions. Something must give in eventually with this much heat all the time. I recently considered getting a proper PC box but I need a laptop...this setup makes more sense to me. Def a good idea 👍

[@uscrunch]

Lift the back of the laptop with something small temps will drop

[@RichCompMan]

Just a heads up.... i just got my BestBuy unit in today and I can confirm that the Surface pen works perfectly on this tablet. All features works perfectly, as if it was designed for the Z13.

[@David-kl4kn]

Good job Btw plz make a video about the required system for 3d modeling and if a gaming laptop for example can meet the needs And also about different display aspect ratios like 16×10 and 16×9 etc and the benefits of each Tnk u so much

[@Kaztoozs]

Really looking forward to the g14 review

[@opalgarcliff470]

extremely thorough and effective review

[@RockSleeper]

It's a really cool device. I love the capability of having a such portability with performance, and the ability to add performance when needed. I'd love have a laptop style keyboard attachment in addition to the tablet keyboard with kickstand. It's great if you have internet issues, data caps, or no internet and need to travel to get updates. I think the perfect product is just around the corner. If they could have gotten a 3060 or even a 3070 in the tablet itself and was able to play RDR2 at 60 fps ultra settings with no issues, it would be an absolute beast of a machine. A real desktop replacement with amazing portability and functionality. I can't wait for the next model of this, and I really hope this one sells well so we can get a great next model.

[@Trick_D]

Looking forward to your review of the new TUF line up. Also hoping for a review of the updated flow x13.

[@signumnox]

I love the form factor of this. The idea of being able to dock it as a PC or use it as a drawing tablet while I'm sitting on the couch has major appeal. 16GB is functional but 32GB would remove any hesitations. Is it stable enough to run as a primary PC for light creative work?

[@bungarin4041]

My thoughts too but ive read 16 GB is more than enough

[@JimsTechWorld]

I am testing the i7 version and multicore performance is also quite conservative but acceptable for such a small machine. Yet the concept of separating CPU and external GPU is simply great, both parts get individual power and cooling.

[@Who-Uhm-Cares]

It doesn't fully utilize the cpu until you have the egpu

[@JimsTechWorld]

@@Who-Uhm-Cares True, it can maintain 75W when connected to XG Mobile.

[@marccatamio]

Thanks Jarrod on your vids. I've finally bought my own legion 5 laptop for content creation and general business use 😁😁 It just sucks that the PH model gets the cheapest options when it comes to ram and wifi card chips but nevertheless it can be upgraded down the line... Thanks and keep up the great work 😁👌👌

[@rafffffffffffy]

Thunderbolt egpu vs the xg mobile would be interesting to see, as desktop gpus are coming down in price and provides future upgradability at least. Could a test like this be done without using different laptops like you did in the x13 test a year ago? That would be a more apples to apples test

[@khadisonno6100]

Nice video , really entertaining. I was wondering if we can recharge at least stand the charge by a regular usb A/Usb type C cable?

this thing looks so freaking cool in my dorm room. i have 2 innoview 15inch monitorson vesa mount on either side. mine has the rtx 350 it gets my needs taken care of. studying ,photography, and i play classic wow. as happy as i am with the z13 i would get the 2021 macbook pro 14 now that its on sell

[@vadrif-draco]

This is just so beautiful.

[@gorzaryan]

There is only one problem with that tablet, it is a limitation of max RAM capacity. This tablet also will be a great solution for people who want the extremely portable workstation and they need 32GB RAM.

[@dee_hfgblank1617]

They should have the 32gb ram version. I wonder why they didn't do it 😐

[@LeFatalpotato]

How about the God awful pricing? Everybody in this comment section is behaving like 2000$ for a 2 in 1 with a 3050ti is a normal price, I feel like I'm in some sort of Truman show. The same unit with a top of the line ryzen chip and a non-detachable keyboard costed 1500$ last year! Why the 33% price hike just for the keyboard detachment?

[@fjallmann]

@@LeFatalpotato I hate the pricing as well. This would otherwise be fine for me as I run around quite a bit.

[@LeFatalpotato]

@@fjallmann same! İ might have even bought the egpu as I have a monitor at home that would be cool to hook this up with.

[@gorzaryan]

@@LeFatalpotato I can find for you this hardware even for 1300$. But it will be the full laptop. Always the compact device with the same specs was more expensive than large one. If you look, you can see that the Mini ITX components of PC also have higher prices than normal ATX one. Rog Flow Z13 is just little heavy tablet, but with powerful CPU and initial GPU. It is not the same make the tablet like that and I don’t talk only about build part. Engineers need to develop difficult and complex system of cooling in that tiny case.

[@ciel1083]

I'm impressed by the quality of this video and the fact he's wearing a band shirt is amazing

[@jackinabackpack7599]

It's cool that you covered it, but I can't see any future that I would buy this. If extreme portability is most important then something like a steam deck would game on the go better, and a 14" laptop would be way more usable for productivity.

[@SonicDestiny]

this looks more like downgrade than upgrade for me from Flow x13, Lower battery life, more heavier with keyboard , lack of hdmi 2.0 and usb 3.2 gen port.

[@RichCompMan]

Yeah, but Thunderbolt 4 port. 1 connection to rule them all!

[@ikemanreed]

But a tablet is so much more useable! You can use it like a phone!!!

[@Terreos]

@@RichCompMan that dedicated port for the XG mobile egpu connects directly into the pci-e lanes. So it in theory should be faster than thunderbolt 4. We’ll know for sure once jarrod posts the video on that.

[@RichCompMan]

@@Terreos Yeah but that accessory is overpriced and underpowered. It's basically a laptop GPU in a proprietary case. I would like to see what a Desktop GPU can do.

[@RichCompMan]

@@taigaramsey8061 Exactly, With a EGPU you can Swap Cards and move it to any other PC or a laptop that has a thunderbolt port. I'm looking for PCIE 4 EGPU but I can't find one. I don't think they make them just yet, but I would love to try out my 3080Ti and 6800XT in one.

[@DonnyDonnMendoza]

Cheeky Mrs Tech appearance? Very interesting device that's for sure and very tempting to get (even if it's not exactly "budget" to get with the external GPU LOL )

[@whyno713]

Picked up an ASUS 2in1 VivoBook with Intel Iris XE MAX and bought a used/refurbished Razor EGPU, threw in a used 1070ftw in there and couldn't be happier with it, all for under $1500.

[@cataclyzm5255]

It has another function After using it for more than 2 hours,u can use its back as an induction stove.

[@gabrielevan148]

could you use a more up to date linux os? something like endeavorOS or Manjaro. Ubuntu uses older kernel which sometimes could mean no hardware enablement to support the newest hardware. something like endeavorOS on the other hand, has a more up to date kernel for iso on live cd (they release new iso every new month or so).

[@shadowarez1337]

When will you have the Asus X13 to test that's the one I'm eagerly awaiting since the Samsung Tab 8 Ultra is a Dim portable.

[@bukwiki]

Thanks for the video. I've been watching this laptop for a while as I value the unique portability but agreed the price at release seemed a little high. However, one year on and this laptop has some heavy discounts now (~USD1000) so I picked one up. I think at this price, with the ability to put in an older or newer XG Mobile GPU it might be a bargain. It still seems unique in its size/power/portability and hiping that older gen i9 will still keep it relevant for a few more years.

[@teddym2808]

Jarrod what is the adaptive sync range of the screen? The intel GFX app will tell you this in the display info section. Please.

[@ever-changingbeing]

I really love the low temperatures. Would choose this instead of most laptops only because of this.

You can use the Nvidia RTX voice as well for background noise removal.

asus website says the display is 30ms response time ( on russian website ) and in the video u say 21 so does that mean the retail ones will be 30ms ? and when u play games on it do u notice the ghosting or u need to be looking for it to notice (with 3050ti not the xg mobile ) ?? ... thank u as alwayes for the content

[@mikebruzzone9570]

Still in the I have a desktop workstation and a large screen laptop paradigm these modular mobile / transforming PCs are interesting on the design thought and mix and match but I'm still figuring out how they fit in to their user's utility values, wants and needs, which is in the middle [?] in design lead [?] utility lead on modularity certainly thought out as a fashion statement. mb

[@NMinatoS]

Been having this strange problem where Windows 11 places single threaded loads (such as games) on the wrong core/thread. My CPU is the R7 5800H. When playing Valorant, for example, my most loaded thread is the last one, CPU15. Same happens when I run a game on PPSSPP (PSP emulator) with an uncapped frame rate (at maximum possible speed for testing purposes, basically a super single threaded workload). The load gets placed on one of the non physical threads of the CPU which makes no sense. Could you please lend me a hand investigating the issue? Are you being affected as well? Cheers! Keep up with the good videos 👍🏿 You were part of the reason I bought my legion 5.

[@joseverdejo9010]

I would like to see what the IGpu is capable of with ddr5 I don’t think we’ve seen iris xe with ddr5 and what it compares to , or what differences if any to ddr4, also they should’ve included lte as an option , I would’ve picked up 2 without the egpu for its price , compared to having to buy a surface pro 8 with last gen hardware

So, just FYI if you use the xg USB c charging port, it will give thr cpu the full juice as if you were using the xg mobile. Just hope you're okay with it running much hotter around upper 70s

[@zydanmuhammadfs1339]

hopefully next year the flow line got an upgrade and also a good price to value ratio. cz to be honest i really love this kind 2 in 1 but the pricing and the gpu man..

[@celinek2690]

I agree the price is too high. I bought mine at $1900+tax and I believe the difference between the X13 variant shouldn't be more than a couple hundred. Graphics card identical, identical RAM capacity and identical SSD upon purchase. The micro SD slot is nice and can double storage but I found the build to be a bit plastic. Parts of it feels squishy. Even the power button is squishy.

[@kumaradityabhadra1898]

Any idea when lenovo is gonna release the gen 7 legion 5 models? And do you ever get the laptops for review before they launch?

[@GohanBurner]

Jerrod, any comment on the CPU dipping to 1.0GHz making some games completely annoying to play? It'll go from 3ghz to 1ghz making it seem like you're constantly unplugging the charger. 60+fps and a really smooth experience to 25-30 for a few seconds and then it just repeats like that. Does this in Rust and Elden Ring.

[@riklaunim]

Curious what Asus Y13 will be :D maybe Pipo x11 type nuc device? :D and then X13 vs Z13 :)

[@arkham_raider8556]

Jarrod, I plan to start a sports podcast KZbin channel in the upcoming weeks. I am still learning about laptops and so far I like the MSI GE76 Raider(16 GB memory/ 1TB SSD/ 3060 graphics card). It is $1500 at my local Costco, would you recommend it? Please and thank you for the response 🙏

[@DarkellVein]

It would be cool to see in the future a version of the Z13 but in a 15 inch size, with a detachable (but still functional) wireless keyboard like the mothership had back in the day, I suppose it would be the next big step to making portable 15 inch 2 in 1's even more appealing.

[@Sebbir]

I feel like 15 inch would be a bit big for a tablet

[@darenren]

i think that would defeat the purpose.

[@DarkellVein]

@@Sebbir It certainly is, but even then, there are people who love the surface book, when the sb3 launched I thought of getting one for college/gaming, but the 1660 it had was truly not enough, and I think asus could pull off a surface book competitor that could do real good on gaming and creative applications if they keep going the xgmobile

[@DarkellVein]

@@darenren It does, but I'm just trying to think "outside the box", there are some laptops that have tried to do that, but for the creative kind of consumer, the acer concept laptops were a real good design, still with flaws of course, but with the people and resources these companies have, if the public shows enough interest, they might pull a big one of. It will be cool, having tablet-like laptop that could be "docked" to maximize performance.

[@darenren]

@@DarkellVein check out asus' latest release. They have a folding tablet laptop released this year.

[@DarkellVein]

Jarrod, do you know if there will be a refresh of the X13? I personally like that the X13, as it was a laptop with a permanently attached keyboard, and also felt more comfortable to use

If I get it and set the resolution to FHD, do you think the battery life & game FPS will be close to the version you’re reviewing?

Gaming performance should be much the same if you lower the resolution, though battery life might differ a bit as the panel will probably have different brightness levels.

[@RoyHuang1]

@@JarrodsTech Thanks so much for your insight. I pre-ordered the 4K version as it’s the only option that comes with the 3080 XGM in the UK market. I figured that it’s a bit silly to play games on such a small screen so I wanted more of an iPad display experience. Again, thanks for responding!!

Hey, I just purchased this device and got it last week. I have noticed that when I run cinebench r23 I get significantly different results if I use the Armoury crate software set to eco mode to disable the dgpu or if I leave it standard. It seems when I leave the gpu enabled my multicore scores differ anywhere from 9k-14k. In eco mode it is more consistent and generally achieves 12k-16k multicore. I also noticed the cpu will rapidly adjust from 80 degrees at very high ghzs and jump down to 60 degrees running below 1ghz with it jumping back and fourth. Is that something you encountered, do I have a bad unit, or are the drivers just not solidified yet to keep consistency? Sorry for the long comment but I really love this device and want to keep it, but I want to make sure that I don't have a defective unit.

Best buy has a 6900HS already listed of the z13 which is only 100$ more expensive than x13, it isn't avaible yet though. I think the 6900S is way better than the i9 cuz the battery life will be better than even last year model

[@Terreos]

Some early reviews seem to hint at the 6900 cpu in the g14 was running hot. And that was with a vapor chamber and liquid metal. So it would be wise to see some user reviews to see if they fix that before spending your hard earned money.

Hey Jarrod, the legion 5 pro (with RTX 3070) is out of stock in my country. Wanted your opinion on good alternatives to it that are close to it in terms of performance. So far I have narrowed down my search to three laptops (which are in stock in my country): 1) ASUS strix G15 advantage edition 2) HP omen 15 (with ryzen 7 and RTX 3070) 3) HP omen 16 (with 11th gen intel core i7 and RTX 3070 max-q) I am a little concerned about the durability and reliability of ASUS laptops and also the after-sales service. With omen 15, the problem is the low power limit of the GPU (100W) and a lack of a MUX switch. I read somewhere that omen 16 has a MUX switch and higher power limit of 115W (not sure about the power limit, will need to confirm if its true). All things considered, do you think omen 16 would be the best choice among the 3 laptops that I have listed?

Hello again, I'm about to push the button for this tablet /laptop, in part for your review. But I was wondering if it's possible to use another power brick, more compact without so many cables. A Power brick and cable, but without a third long cable. Thank you and sorry for the weird question.

[@davidlinajescarrion1086]

Another 100 watt power brick, that's my question.

[@JarrodsTech]

I'm not sure what you mean by third long cable. The brick it comes with comes with one type-c cable that connects to it. In theory, it should work but asus have said they limit charger support, so they might not give it full power.

[@davidlinajescarrion1086]

@@JarrodsTech alright, I meant a more portable power brick, with only one cable. Alright, I'll check it out after I purchase it. Your reviews are quite good, thanks

i'm getting 90 mins of runtime max running on the iGPU only. - i guess undervolting is the solution to aim for.

Thanks for the Linux test!

Jarrod, did you prefer this to the flow x13? I think at this size I'm more attracted to a ryzen 6000 cpu for efficiency. I didn't know if you had a view over which was the better implementation

[@JarrodsTech]

Hmm I didn't really mind either as a laptop, probably X13 for laptop mode as you don't need the kick stand which is a pain in some scenarios like on your lap. As a tablet though X13 not as good as you are holding the keyboard and it feels a bit weird.

[@WarneysWorld]

@@JarrodsTech thank you Jarrod, makes sense. I think I lean toward the laptop but the z13 definitely looks more badass 😎 tough call

[@adarsh3196]

can i use this device comfortably on lap like other laptops
