This was very informative! Really like the format of just doing a brief overview of all the main brands since there is mainly just iterative updates every year now. And when there is something actually new and worth talking about, that could have a more in depth look and video. Definitely will be looking back to this, since im in the market for a new laptop myself. Great as always dave.

You can partly lay the blame on Nvidia for artificially limiting their GPUs based on the TGP. Heck, even the maximum TGP can be misleading becoz the performance was usually maxxed out around 100 watt for the 4050 to 4070 line.

great stuff dave, I love how you explain very clearly the differences between cpu stacks ( higher power consumption vs lower power consumption) i' was a bit concerned at the start of the video when you showed all those laptops stacked on top of each other... doesn't that hurt the laptop at the bottom? just curious. Although I like the new design and look of asus's new g14, I kinda prefer the old design better... idk call me crazy, the lift screen hinge that helped with cooling, the higher gpu options, and the overall look of it, it was a bit thicker, and I feel could handle temps better. plus the materials weren't bad either, it still feels solidly built made of magnesium allow, with full glass touchpad, and mini led screens.

I really love how you give in-depth explanations about the tech you review in all of your videos. Keep the great work up😊

Great video! Very informative and well paced.

Dave2D-I have been following you for several years-and I think this is the best video review you have ever published. First, the comparisons were particularly clear, with a minimum of technobabbel. I also like that you took the time to actually show us the devices you were discussing. But the best part was your sensitivity to pricing. Far too often, we get reviews of great products which are unfortunately very expensive. Your recommendations on what to buy at what price and when to look for sales was invaluable. Job Well Done! P.S. I am a Senior Citizen who is also a confirmed geek. I must tailor my purchases to a very limited income from Social Security in the United States.

Can you make a video on the one you prefer from all these? Maybe different standpoints like “best budget” and then “best overall” between these Thanks man!

So glad to see more and more gaming pc going for the slick look. Cool to have a gaming laptops that you can bring to professional meetings

love the vid, you probably the only tech review youtuber out here that put all of this laptop in one video. it is ver useful.

I am very satisfied with my Legion slim 5 14,5” Oled 7840hs with Rtx 4060. I can play Warzone in silent mode 70/80 fps basic settings. For me besides performance being as silent as possible is a must for a gaming rig

I'm so happy Dave finally embraced the omen lineup... but I'm still waiting for the Omen 16 review pls 😭😭

Hi Dave, after a long time it feels I can give you a few free suggestions. The split you did in the video with you in 30% of the screen and the product occupying 70%, that didn't feel neat to my eyes maybe I'm wrong but it felt so, rather have a circular cutout at the bottom right of the screen or just have the product or you occupying the whole screen like always. Even the canera angle from behind you from the right side felt was not very accurate rather stick to the overhead. Secondly its been a long time we have not had a setting up a new laptop video from you actually this opinion comes to my mind as I've got a new legion pro7i😅. I'm a big fan mate dont take it otherwise all ❤. Hopefully you read it.😊

I got a g14 a week ago and I absolutely love it. The proprietary power is my only downside so far but it does charge via usbc PD at a decent rate, and the power brick is quite small so not that much of a problem. The device itself is great. Powerful, quiet, light and thin.

@TheTrueAnarchel

12 күн бұрын

Linus tech tips looked at those with some Asus guys on site, and they claimed the proprietary charger is just an efficiency thing (due to usb c not having large enough copper lines), and you can just as well charge with USB-C. Did you notice a difference with equally strong adapters?

@emmywestwood

12 күн бұрын

@@TheTrueAnarchel It definitely charges fastest via the proprietary. It comes with it's own usbc adapter too, and knows when you're using a different usbc adapter and doesn't charge as fast. I haven't done any tests myself but seems will fully charge in about two hours from a decent 3rd party adapter. Overall I'm still really happy, it's nice knowing I don't have to bring the proprietary brick with me all the time even if it's not as efficient just on usbc.

My Legion 5 Ryzen 7 5800H, 3070 130 watt bought for £800 last year still going strong 💪 - its a beast. Sales, sales, sales is the key

I know it is a small thing, but I love when you have a camera on your face talking and a camera on the device being opened up. Slick

Man I am such a Razer fan now. I got the Blade 15 2021 Advanced for college a couple years back and I am still in love with it. Just the best laptop. I got it on a huge sale too so that was awesome. Upgraded the nvme and the ram and I don't need a new laptop for a long time. Might get an external gpu someday

Watching this review on my G14. I'm so impressed!

Curious to see if new TB5 egpus are going to come out with the much improved bandwidth. Still rocking the blade stealth with the core X for now! Also would be so sick if Razer reintroduces the blade stealth with the new intel core ultra chips, would be such a compact, powerful device with much improved battery life that it needed, powered fully by just USB-C!

I've got Lenovo Legion 9i gen9 2024, but I do a lot of coding, game dev, code compilation, video editing and much more CPU bound tasks. If I would work with Google docs and presentations, my choose is g16.

Thank you! short and sweet!

This honestly made me feel better about ordering a 2023 model. Snagged an Acer Predator Triton 14 with a 4070 for $1249. Only gripe is stuck with 16GB of RAM, but everything else checked all the boxes at that prestige price.

Got my G14 and i love it. It do be getting hot though at the said area in the review to 60 plus degree Celsius for CPU and 50 plus degree Celsius GPU.

I have the X14 from two years ago. I love this thing. I got it because I saw your review of it. No regrets. My chip set is not as good as the ones from 2024, but it is still enough.

I picked up the 2024 G16 with 4070 from BestBuy as an excellent open box for only $1450. Such an amazing deal. It will be replacing my 16” MacBook Pro w/ M1 Pro. Not as good battery life but everything else feels like a solid upgrade for almost half the price of getting an M3 Pro MacBook.

One of the cool things about Dave's video is laptop wallpapers. It's awesome!!!

Can you please make a Video to the Lenovo LOQ series (Budget Lineup)?

The Asus proprietary connector is because USB-C can't handle that high voltage with current, so they designed it with this connector. You still can charge most Asus laptops with USB-C, but only this adapter can handle even GPU on full power with full cpu.

Keep letting it come through bro! Looks good!
