About this deal

It’s roughly 20% faster in CPU sustained loads than the previous Ryzen 9 + RTX 3070Ti configuration, and about on par in GPU loads, with only a slight advantage in some workloads and in RT tests. You’ll find more about the performance of these two Flow generations in this article, and if there’s enough interest, I could put up together a separate comparison article. Let me know in the comments section.

ROG GameVisual software offers six expertly tuned graphic modes designed to optimise your visual experience for specific game genres. First Person Shooter (FPS) mode, for example, enhances visibility in dark environments, allowing you to get the drop on any enemies lurking in the shadows. Use GameVisual to get the best experience for every game in your library. We’ve already reviewed this panel on the Zephyrus Duo, and I’ll refer you to that article for more details, as well as Derek’s more recent Flow X16 review, with the miniLED panel. The ROG Flow X16 remains one of the best portable all-purpose laptops that you can buy today, and pretty much without a direct-tier alternative even in 2023. Switching over to the Performance profile translates in the CPU stabilizing at a little under 80W and still very high temperatures in the high 90s, with the fans spinning quieter at ~40 dB at head-level. That’s with the laptop on the desk. a mini LED panel from BOE, branded as “ROG Nebula HDR”, with 2560 x 1600 px resolution, zone-dimming, 1000+ nits of peak brightness, and 100% DCI-P3 color coverage;That’s the QHD+ 240Hz 3ms panel discussed in this review of the Zephyrus G16, and is still an excellent display, just without zone-dimming and not as bright in HDR as the miniLED one. That screen is more affordable, though, and notably more efficient when using the laptop on battery power. Looks like the Flow X16 is going to demand a premium over the existing clamshell ROG Zephyrus designs of this generation, and that’s getting you the convertible form-factor with a touch-enabled mini LED display, paired with a sturdily made chassis, uncompromised inputs and ports, and the excellent balance of performance, cooling and noise levels for a thin-and-light performance ultraportable. My only complaint is the fact that the lowest-brightness setting isn’t that dim, and that might bother some of you when using the laptop in a pitch-dark room. However, I’ve also included a full-power 13th-gen Core H + RTX 4070 configuration in the following table, for a better idea of what the RTX 4070 Laptop hardware would be capable of in a full-power design, and what you’re potentially giving up in performance by opting for this sort of a thinner and more portable design on the Flow X16.

For comparison, I’ve added results from our review of the Zephyrus G16 down below, which is nearly identical in implementation and power settings to the X16. I haven’t yet tested any 4050 model, but will update the table once we do. Gaming aside, this laptop is a breeze with daily use, with light multitasking, browsing, or video streaming. Here’s what we got on our review unit in terms of battery life, with the laptop on the Standard GPU mode and the screen set on single-zone lighting mode and a brightness of around 120 nits (~50% brightness). Here’s what we got in our tests of this panel in the multi-zone lighting mode, with an X-Rite i1 Display Pro sensor: Down below I’ve gathered my thoughts and impressions on this 2023 ROG Flow X16 series, with a close look at all the details that you should be aware of as a potential buyer.
