Asus’ new ROG Zephyrus laptops feature OLED displays and a sleek light strip
These new Zephyrus models look very promising.
For 2024, Asus is redesigning the G14 and G16 with new aluminum builds, a smaller and sleeker hinge that doesn’t elevate the deck, 16:10 OLED screens (2880 x 1800 / 120Hz for the G14 and 2560 x 1600 / 240Hz for the G16), larger trackpads and keyboards, a new fast-charging port with reversible plug (separate from their USB-C charging), new six-speaker audio setups (even in the smaller 14-inch), new chips ranging from AMD’s Ryzen 8000 series in the G14 to Intel’s Meteor Lake in the G16, up to 32GB of DDR5 RAM, and a very sleek strip of customizable white lighting on their lids. It’s a nice bit of flair that isn’t too attention-grabby, and I’d wager you could even sneak through some in-office meetings without anyone noticing you’re on a gaming laptop (unless, of course, someone looks close at the REPUBLIC OF GAMERS stamp at the bottom of the lid). While at the Asus press briefing, I overheard some chagrining about these laptops opting for a proprietary charge connector in lieu of a barrel plug, but as someone who dislikes the latter, I’m fine with the slim and reversible power cord here.
