00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.000
the Asus g16 and 14 are some of the best

00:00:03.600 --> 00:00:10.280
gaming laptops on the market but what if they have one feature that you really

00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:17.560
want a touchcreen well that's what we've got here today this right here is Asus

00:00:13.679 --> 00:00:20.560
Pro art p16 and it is basically the g16

00:00:17.560 --> 00:00:23.439
but in professional makeup let's have a

00:00:20.560 --> 00:00:29.400
look and this video is sponsored by AMD how much power is AMD going to get

00:00:26.439 --> 00:00:33.680
to consume well apparently 200 Watts according to the power adapter which

00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:38.440
just powered with asus's proprietary rectangle connector thing it's like USB

00:00:36.360 --> 00:00:41.680
type-c but more efficient and less convenient let's see does this tell me

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:46.239
to plug it in and turn it on yep there we go plug it in press the power button

00:00:44.280 --> 00:00:51.000
hell yeah where your Story begins not a single thing happened until

00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:56.039
you got an Asus laptop well my first impressions are this is one slab a

00:00:53.719 --> 00:01:01.559
laptop right here there's not a whole lot going on design wise on the back I

00:00:58.800 --> 00:01:07.040
guess coming from the G 16 that might be kind of nice if you don't want like a

00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:09.640
great big LED animated display back here

00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:18.280
does really like fingerprints the p16 comes in at 4 lb

00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:19.960
or 1.8 kilog that is pretty darn good

00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:24.720
given the power that I know this thing has inside of it also the I/O is very

00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:32.079
solid headphone microphone combo Jack USB type a USB 4 HDMI 2.1 and on the

00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:36.159
other side fullsize SD card reader I love to see that so many others are

00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:39.280
going to the small ones this is fantastic if you're doing stuff like

00:01:37.880 --> 00:01:43.799
photo shoots and you want to be able to just quickly throw your SD card reader

00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:48.920
in there and of course another USB type A around the back there is only exhaust

00:01:47.320 --> 00:01:54.880
actually looking at the specs it's only 17.3 mm thick which is pretty darn good

00:01:53.119 --> 00:01:59.159
normally expect something to be more around 20 not that 2 and 1/2 mm is

00:01:57.520 --> 00:02:05.200
really going to change your day all right opening up here it is very similar

00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:10.720
to the g16 which does share the same chassis I need to move this off of the

00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:13.640
uh mat here but this is one hell of a

00:02:10.720 --> 00:02:20.000
stiff chassis like I am properly sending it here and like I can't quite tell when

00:02:17.920 --> 00:02:26.200
it's the laptop moving and when it's the table underneath it they're pretty

00:02:22.519 --> 00:02:26.200
similar in stiffness

00:02:29.959 --> 00:02:37.440
yeah this keyboard is fantastic it doesn't get full full marks like I think

00:02:34.440 --> 00:02:41.040
that they could have a tiny bit more

00:02:37.440 --> 00:02:43.200
texture and tactility to the actuation

00:02:41.040 --> 00:02:48.440
of the keys but uh yeah it's pretty good I'm going to give this a solid a for the

00:02:45.319 --> 00:02:51.599
keyboard and I think the trackpad might

00:02:48.440 --> 00:02:53.920
get an A+ like look at how much space

00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:59.840
they have used up with this thing they literally could not have more of it here

00:02:57.440 --> 00:03:05.400
overall the tracking on it is fantastic fantastic I have not run out of space on

00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:07.239
it at all and of course we have this

00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:11.599
little thingy up in the top so if you want to use it you can swipe from the

00:03:09.040 --> 00:03:15.000
top right just like that you can now see that it's turned on using the dial here

00:03:13.720 --> 00:03:19.400
you can see that I can just change the system brightness wow this screen goes

00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:22.760
dark imagine this right here is Lightroom and we're changing the

00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:27.879
brightness of a photo or something like that it's actually a really nice sort of

00:03:24.920 --> 00:03:32.000
analog way to adjust something like this and also you can adjust if co-pilot's on

00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:36.319
by hitting the button oh that's pretty good what I'm

00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:40.720
looking for right now is that we have an OLED panel with a touchcreen digitizer

00:03:38.640 --> 00:03:44.760
on the front of it and I have seen a lot of panels in the past where the two

00:03:42.920 --> 00:03:49.120
won't quite line up because the touchscreen digitizer was made for an

00:03:46.720 --> 00:03:52.720
LCD panel this right here does have a tiny bit of those artifacts like you can

00:03:50.959 --> 00:03:56.280
kind of see it as a graininess but I can only start seeing it about right here

00:03:55.000 --> 00:04:00.599
and I would normally be using this computer right about here where it's not

00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:05.239
a problem at all so it's not a problem at all for the display we've got what

00:04:02.640 --> 00:04:11.920
Asus calls their Lumina OLED so this is 16 by10 4K and unfortunately it is just

00:04:09.799 --> 00:04:15.360
60 HZ but because it's OLED your response times will be lower so it's not

00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:19.959
going to be brutal to use like a 60 HZ LCD like this is still pretty Snappy and

00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:24.040
responsive even if I can sort of see the pointer Trails there if you can see that

00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:29.960
on the monitor it also has a max brightness of 500 nits 100% coverage of

00:04:26.880 --> 00:04:31.960
DCI P3 Inc comes color calibrated from

00:04:29.960 --> 00:04:35.479
the factory so you can just trust that the colors that you see here are the

00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:39.880
colors that everyone else will see assuming that their monitors are also

00:04:37.440 --> 00:04:46.320
color calibrated roughly of course though the thing that we are looking for

00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:49.280
is this WOW touchscreen maybe you care

00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:53.240
about it maybe you don't but if you do this is a pretty good laptop to be

00:04:51.039 --> 00:04:57.680
looking into but of course if you have a beautiful 4K display that is no good if

00:04:55.560 --> 00:05:01.919
you don't have the power to back up the programs that you run on it but but

00:05:00.039 --> 00:05:10.320
fortunately we have that here with the AMD ryzen AI 9 HX 370 this thing has 12

00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:13.639
cores 24 threads and goes up to 5.1 GHz

00:05:10.320 --> 00:05:15.960
with a 70 W TDP for just the processor

00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:21.120
itself which means this should be fairly rapid for professional programs for

00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:25.639
memory we have 32 GB at 7500 megat transfers per second which means it's

00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:32.319
probably not able to be upgraded but it is also very fast we have a 1 TB SSD

00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:35.240
mediate Tech WI ii7 an npu that is good

00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:40.720
for 50 tops of performance and of course your GPU which is an RTX 460 which is

00:05:38.520 --> 00:05:44.319
good for many more tops of AI performance if that's what you're

00:05:41.840 --> 00:05:50.440
looking for my notes say that the 4070 which is optional will go up to 321 tops

00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:55.280
I'm not totally sure what the 4060 we have here is capable of that said though

00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:59.319
it definitely has 8 GB of vram don't worry about the AI it's 40% more

00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:02.919
efficient that's the bit that really matters your battery life is way better

00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:07.120
with these processors all right let's try out some of the AI grunt of this

00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:13.479
with Muse tree this apparently allows you to generate AI images and become

00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:17.000
more creative either way it's a bunch of image generation that is on your

00:06:15.400 --> 00:06:21.520
computer so it doesn't have to send all your data and crap to the cloud and you

00:06:19.440 --> 00:06:29.960
don't have to be spending money using generated tokens and crap so create my

00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:33.520
muse tree how to ruin the portter

00:06:29.960 --> 00:06:34.840
potty okay so here we have several porta

00:06:33.520 --> 00:06:41.520
potties that's not quite what we're looking for dog on Porta

00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:54.479
poty there we go this is what all of your computational resources are for we

00:06:52.039 --> 00:06:59.160
can burn the world down with AI but at least we'll have strange looking dog

00:06:56.440 --> 00:07:03.560
outside of portapotty giant cat knocking down

00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:03.560
building

00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:14.879
no I wonder if it will be better with just out my help at all there we go that

00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:17.080
one's sort of something we just spend so

00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:23.039
much time on that all right let's have a little game of Rocket League here so

00:07:19.080 --> 00:07:26.000
we're looking at about around 100ish FPS

00:07:23.039 --> 00:07:31.160
with this 4060 the responsiveness does seem like it's really quite good and the

00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:35.319
colors of this dis display are fantastic it is a bit of a let down that it's only

00:07:33.039 --> 00:07:39.560
60 HZ but at the same time I am currently getting like 120 FPS well

00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:43.800
screen recording and this is a pretty decent

00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:49.400
time especially for a laptop whose intent is not really gaming it's

00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:55.120
supposed to be a Creator first laptop in here we do have asus's ice cool Pro

00:07:52.319 --> 00:08:01.400
thermal technology which gets us up to 120 wats of combined system power which

00:07:58.599 --> 00:08:05.159
is pretty impressive given the size of this thing you were just able to hear

00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:09.000
the fans on during rocket league and even though when you lift it up it's

00:08:06.400 --> 00:08:13.639
kind of loud against the table it's pretty silent and this does also have

00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:18.800
liquid metal inside of it these speakers don't kick ass I'm going to be mad okay

00:08:16.400 --> 00:08:18.800
sounds

00:08:19.520 --> 00:08:25.319
decent oh yeah there we go you've got

00:08:23.039 --> 00:08:28.520
the base the treble is clear it's not just the Starting All To Hell and you

00:08:26.840 --> 00:08:34.159
can tell by the fact that I'm kind of yelling right now that it's plenty loud

00:08:31.599 --> 00:08:38.719
good job Asus they have a webcam turnoff switch right here I do really like to

00:08:36.279 --> 00:08:43.599
see that and this webcam also looks pretty darn good I'm not getting any

00:08:41.599 --> 00:08:46.920
super strange colors on my face that I can tell it's struggling a tiny bit here

00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:51.279
when I point it directly at a bright Studio light but it's still mostly

00:08:49.040 --> 00:08:55.440
exposing for my face if I turn around here it still is exposing for my face

00:08:53.519 --> 00:09:00.480
really quite well it's not blowing out even though this side is way darker than

00:08:57.880 --> 00:09:05.440
this side so whatever image processing they're using is pretty darn good and of

00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:09.800
course it also has Windows hello facial recognition up top and a fingerprint

00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:13.800
reader in the power button right here which is my favorite combo for getting

00:09:11.640 --> 00:09:19.360
in because no matter what you're doing you can probably get in through one of

00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:21.600
those ways all right 11 T6 screws later

00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:25.519
two of which were underneath rubber feet and we are in do make sure if you take

00:09:23.720 --> 00:09:29.920
this apart that you organize where all of your screws go because they are

00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:33.839
different lengths keep it organized like with our little magnetic spots with

00:09:31.959 --> 00:09:38.320
our Precision screwdriver set from LT store.com in here things are looking

00:09:36.120 --> 00:09:42.440
pretty good down below we have a 90w hour battery which an hour testing was

00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:47.399
able to get 8 hours and 5 minutes in our endurance test which is pretty good but

00:09:44.959 --> 00:09:52.560
not exceptional but also really quite good given that this has an OLED display

00:09:49.079 --> 00:09:54.360
and those can really use a lot of power

00:09:52.560 --> 00:09:58.920
I sure that is Ada of by the AMD processor in here for upgradability on

00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:03.959
the right we have our 1 SSD and on the left right here you can put a second one

00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:09.880
will a double-sided SSD go in yep double-sided SSD all good in here we can

00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:11.800
also see asus's thermal design which is

00:10:09.880 --> 00:10:17.480
pretty interesting we have four heat pipes none of which are particularly

00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:19.480
large but we also have three fans this

00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:25.160
one down here is good for just cooling down stuff like your vrms your ssds

00:10:22.800 --> 00:10:29.399
pulling in air across everything and it is sectioned off via a little bit of

00:10:27.079 --> 00:10:33.839
foam from your main fans which are Prim arily just going to be shooting air out

00:10:31.640 --> 00:10:38.000
of those heat sinks back there now before pricing AMD is doing a giveaway

00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:42.519
down below so you can get one of these for free which would be very awesome

00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:48.120
this one that we have right here with 32 GB of RAM and a 4060 is a Canada only

00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:57.639
model that comes in at $2600 Canadian or about

00:10:53.360 --> 00:11:00.320
$1,870 us which is not too bad of a deal

00:10:57.639 --> 00:11:08.680
but strangely in the US you need to go much more expensive and much more more

00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:14.279
computer the US config starts with 64 GB

00:11:08.680 --> 00:11:16.440
of RAM 2 terab of storage and a 4070 for

00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:22.720
$2700 that's a lot of money but that's also a lot a lot of computer so yeah if

00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:24.760
you're in the US maybe drive up here to

00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:28.720
get a cheap laptop the people are nice so it'll be worth it just like AMD was

00:11:26.760 --> 00:11:32.760
really nice to sponsor this video check out the links down in the description

00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:37.519
enter that giveaway and have a great old day hit like get subscribed and I'll see

00:11:34.800 --> 00:11:37.519
you later
