1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:06,279
if you can only have one computer to do all of your stuff every single task that

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:11,240
you need it would probably be this one the

3
00:00:08,599 --> 00:00:15,799
ASUS G14 before we look at the laptop let's have a little look at the charger

4
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:20,480
for Power we've got a 180 W power adapter that is delivered through the

5
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:22,600
ASUS slim powerjack TM this right here

6
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:26,320
is kind of like USB type-c but you can't plug USB type-c stuff into it that would

7
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:30,199
be a bad time and it also delivers way more current which allows us to actually

8
00:00:28,119 --> 00:00:36,360
have higher efficiency through it so here is the brand new 2024 ASUS G14 now

9
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:40,480
you will see that we are missing the animatrix on the back which is a little

10
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:44,879
bit sad cuz I really like putting a line of sad face just on the back of my

11
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:49,440
laptop but at the same time how much I'm actually going to miss it is almost zero

12
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:52,879
the io that we get is really quite good given the size of this thing so on the

13
00:00:51,199 --> 00:00:58,600
right hand side we have an SD card reader just a small one fulls sizee USB

14
00:00:55,960 --> 00:01:03,160
type A and A type c that does 10 gbit and DisplayPort left hand side we have

15
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:10,799
headphone microphone combo Jack another USB type A A type c fulls sizee HDMI 2.1

16
00:01:07,759 --> 00:01:13,000
and our little ASUS slim powerjack TM

17
00:01:10,799 --> 00:01:18,600
seems pretty light pretty light for a 4070 at least what do you think this

18
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:24,640
seems riged around

19
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:26,759
3.7 lb maybe o no 3.3 it is actually

20
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:34,079
lighter than I expected which is quite good oh we have the full aluminum body

21
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:36,360
for this year it's all CNC machine and I

22
00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:41,159
have to say it looks absolutely fantastic this right here is like

23
00:01:38,759 --> 00:01:48,000
MacBook levels of quality this might be close to exceeding a Macbook quality

24
00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:51,399
let's see 14-in MacBook 14-in ASUS

25
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:53,159
oh that's pretty darn close the ASUS

26
00:01:51,399 --> 00:01:56,799
might even have the edge which is shocking before I turn this on I've

27
00:01:55,079 --> 00:02:02,600
heard that these will speak to you a little bit when they start up let's see

28
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:06,119
wow that sounded just like a segue to this sponsor thanks to Zen market for

29
00:02:04,479 --> 00:02:09,800

the codes shortcircuit and zen1 ship all

46
00:03:08,599 --> 00:03:16,920
right let's have a gander at how powerful this thing is so for the

47
00:03:12,239 --> 00:03:19,920
processor we have an AMD ryzen 9 8945 HS

48
00:03:16,920 --> 00:03:22,920
which has AI in it it's apparently the

49
00:03:19,920 --> 00:03:25,239
same as 7,000 but with some AI bolted on

50
00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:29,280
and really that's probably going to be really good for you in the future I feel

51
00:03:26,920 --> 00:03:34,200
like these sort of AI accelerators will not be super useful for a couple years

52
00:03:31,879 --> 00:03:38,360
but will be the sort of thing where in 5 or 10 years it might be the difference

53
00:03:36,159 --> 00:03:45,159
between this laptop running kind of well and just being awful for memory we have

54
00:03:41,159 --> 00:03:47,680
32 GB of ddr5 6400 megat transfer per

55
00:03:45,159 --> 00:03:57,200
second stuff in here a wd 1 TB SSD a mediatech Wi-Fi 6E chip can

56
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:59,200
I get a boo Bo thank you I really do not

57
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:03,799
like mediatech I've had so many issues where I'm using an AMD laptop that has a

58
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:07,280
mediate Tech Wi-Fi card in it and whenever I go between access points it's

59
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:12,000
really bad for dropping out or just generally not being reliable I much

60
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:15,760
prefer the Intel ones and if you can swap one of those into here I would

61
00:04:13,439 --> 00:04:19,280
highly highly recommend it but we also have that's very controversial is the

62
00:04:17,359 --> 00:04:24,639
NVIDIA RTX 470 that's controversial because last

63
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:29,000
year's model had up to a 4090 and now a 4070 is as high as you can go in this

64
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:33,160
and I personally think that's totally fine I have have seen some people

65
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:37,199
complaining online but this is so much thinner and just generally more portable

66
00:04:35,280 --> 00:04:41,120
than last year's version that I think the tradeoff is quite good especially

67
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:46,400
since you're not getting the performance of a 490 in this this cannot properly

68
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:52,280
cool a 490 like you can physically put it in here but why it's just going to be

69
00:04:49,039 --> 00:04:54,680
loud it's not going to be all of the 49s

70
00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:59,120
performance and I really like what ASUS has done here and just made the laptop

71
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:03,560
smaller and put the GPU that people actually buy yeah or get mad at me down

72
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:09,400
below maybe you want the 490 by last year's and finally there's an AMD radon

73
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:13,840
780m that is just the integrated graphics and it allows us to do you know

74
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:17,199
normal integrated Graphics stuff I'm guessing no

75
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:22,560
touchscreen yeah no touchcreen but oh well this is an incredible panel

76
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:29,919
especially for a laptop of this size so it is OLED love to see that 2880 by 1800

77
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:34,000
so that's sort of like your 1440p but stretch related vertically so you have

78
00:05:31,639 --> 00:05:37,520
that 16 by10 which is just awesome because you can see so much extra

79
00:05:35,639 --> 00:05:45,039
content when you're doing like web browsing working on videos photos words

80
00:05:42,840 --> 00:05:49,759
any of those now for the display you're going to want to configure your settings

81
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:54,120
because it does really change how well this panel is delivering the photons to

82
00:05:52,120 --> 00:06:01,240
your eyeballs so when the Armory crate here we go over to game visual now the

83
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:03,400
color gamut native right here is a vivid

84
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:08,080
profile and that is going to just sear your eyeballs with the most Vivid of

85
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:11,960
vivid colors now a lot of people do like that but if you want to do photo editing

86
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:17,199
or just generally look at things how they were intended it has an average

87
00:06:13,919 --> 00:06:19,400
Delta e of 4.4 which is just not very

88
00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:25,000
good the good news is though if we come in here go from native to just srgb and

89
00:06:22,639 --> 00:06:30,120
apply that we now have a display that isn't quite as vibrant but it is able to

90
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:35,880
deliver those visuals to you with an average Delta e of 0.9 which is

91
00:06:33,280 --> 00:06:39,919
absolutely fantastic we expect below two for professional color work so this rate

92
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:44,280
here you can be doing professional color work and I don't know uploading your

93
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:48,479
bestest pictures to Instagram that you've ever done now one thing that is

94
00:06:46,039 --> 00:06:52,560
unfortunate is that for whatever reason this laptop got really mad at the

95
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:58,080
software that we use to check the color accuracy of displays when it was in HDR

96
00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:03,520
so we were able to verify that it has a brightness of 6 100 nits in HDR which is

97
00:07:01,759 --> 00:07:08,360
very impressive but we weren't able to verify if it is color accurate in HDR

98
00:07:06,199 --> 00:07:13,599
that said though it looks really good in HDR we can tell you that much and given

99
00:07:10,879 --> 00:07:17,840
its SDR performance we do imagine it is very very good we just cannot verify

100
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:23,879
that with anything other than our eyeballs last thing to talk about Hardware wise is the keyboard and the

101
00:07:21,319 --> 00:07:29,120
trackpad and they are excellent I would give it a very solid a like if we look

102
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:33,360
right here keycap stability is excellent I can push push on the corner and get a

103
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:37,800
tiny bit of deflection but if I really press on it the whole key is going to

104
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:43,240
actuate long before the corner of this key gets below the chassis also the

105
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,720
consistency from key to key fantastic

106
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:49,879
also below the keyboard we have this trackpad and it is excellent it's nice

107
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:55,199
and large really as big as they could get in here that was a very large Source

108
00:07:52,479 --> 00:08:01,159
bot on the previous G4S you were kind of giving up a good trackpad for having

109
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:04,759
like a 49 or whatever the heck now of course this is a gaming laptop so I want

110
00:08:03,039 --> 00:08:09,000
to make sure that you guys get a really good idea of how this works in the games

111
00:08:06,879 --> 00:08:13,479
that you are definitely going to play starting and probably ending with crab

112
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:19,240
Champions so guess we've discovered one problem here uh 2880 by 1800 is pretty

113
00:08:17,319 --> 00:08:26,680
strange normally if you have more of like a 1440p you would go for 2560 x600

114
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:28,440
so this is a little bit larger and this

115
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:32,039
game does not support it lots of games probably don't support it really if they

116
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:35,880
just have a settings menu so that might be annoying at times that still looks

117
00:08:34,159 --> 00:08:40,839
pretty darn good though first thing I'm noticing this Ola display looks

118
00:08:38,399 --> 00:08:47,800
fantastic so we seem to be getting a pretty solid 110 to 130

119
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:50,200
FPS okay the smoothness of this display

120
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:55,200
is incredible and that's aided a lot by the fact that this has gsync now in our

121
00:08:52,560 --> 00:09:01,959
LT video we go into this in more depth but basically this panel is refreshing

122
00:08:57,680 --> 00:09:03,839
or more so updating 960 times every

123
00:09:01,959 --> 00:09:09,720
single second that allows you to get around the problems of changing how long

124
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:11,680
each pixel is on for it's always on 960

125
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:17,040
times per second and how many times you display each frame is how you get that

126
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:19,600
gsync variable refresh rate instead of

127
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:23,880
trying to like make each individual frame last a different amount of time

128
00:09:21,959 --> 00:09:30,720
besides crab game we try this out in a couple different games against Lenovo

129
00:09:25,959 --> 00:09:33,839
Legion slim 7i that has an I9 a 4070 and

130
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:35,959
32 GB of RAM so it's pretty comparable

131
00:09:33,839 --> 00:09:40,240
to this although it is larger so you would expect it to be a little bit

132
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:43,800
better and it was I would say something

133
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:46,200
like 10% faster or so which is very

134
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:52,399
impressive for the G14 given that it is significantly smaller and nearly as

135
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:54,680
powerful so good job there ASUS okay how

136
00:09:52,399 --> 00:10:01,440
are the speakers in this that sounds very

137
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:04,000
clear oh oh when ASUS was here they said

138
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:10,240
this might be the best sounding 14-in laptop and they might be

139
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:13,240
right all right let's compare it to the

140
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,240
HP

141
00:10:13,519 --> 00:10:20,480
wow it's way better than the HP

142
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:23,000
dragonfly MacBook very few laptops get

143
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:26,480
to the MacBook stage of this test all right here's the ASUS zepis

144
00:10:27,279 --> 00:10:32,079
G14 oh that's really close

145
00:10:32,079 --> 00:10:37,959
MacBook Pro 14

146
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:51,000
oh I think we can call that a tie the MacBook has a little bit more on the

147
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:54,120
high end but I think that's more so just the target curve that they're going for

148
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:58,839
you could probably get a little bit more trouble on this if you wanted to but

149
00:10:56,639 --> 00:11:02,920
they're both loud they're both clear excellent jaw suus on this and finally

150
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:06,639
let's have a look at the webcam this thing is 1080p you guys remember when

151
00:11:05,079 --> 00:11:10,720
they used to not even have webcams on this thing that was stupid I'm glad they

152
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:15,560
changed that and this one's really really good look at that up here we also

153
00:11:13,399 --> 00:11:18,959
have Windows hello facial recognition so you can get into it just using your face

154
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:23,120
even that is getting a little bit confused but like fair enough there's

155
00:11:21,279 --> 00:11:27,920
big bright lights right here and you can even see Andy 11 T6 screws later some of

156
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:32,079
which are different lengths so be careful we can get in side first thing

157
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:38,440
in here we have a 73w battery and our testing it was able

158
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:40,880
to get us a very impressive nearly 10

159
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:45,320
hours which for a gaming laptop particularly one with a 4070 is

160
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:49,320
incredibly impressive that's how you're able to have a laptop like this where I

161
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:52,920
was saying if you can only have one computer buy this one that's what this

162
00:11:51,399 --> 00:11:56,639
has that stands out against the competition like that slim 7 that we're

163
00:11:54,480 --> 00:12:00,519
were talking before that slim 7 got 4 hours and 45 minutes now if you do want

164
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:04,920
to fully load this thing up with combuster for some reason on battery it

165
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:10,440
does only get you an hour but at the same time just don't do that please here

166
00:12:08,079 --> 00:12:14,800
we can see our Wi-Fi card is replaceable which is excellent cuz you'll want to do

167
00:12:11,959 --> 00:12:19,839
that and we have our SSD over here one thing that's very very sad though is

168
00:12:17,279 --> 00:12:24,120
that you cannot upgrade the RAM it is all soldered down on the old version you

169
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:28,240
had one sodm slot that you were able to swap in and out this one nothing couple

170
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:32,160
more fun things to look at in here we have three fans they've got the little

171
00:12:30,519 --> 00:12:37,279
one in the middle which is apparently great for your vrms and just keeping

172
00:12:34,680 --> 00:12:40,920
your temperatures down on the keyboard actually one thing that I didn't talk

173
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:46,160
about before but is very nice is that these do have a little bit to

174
00:12:42,959 --> 00:12:47,800
ventilation right through WD so your

175
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:51,199
hands don't get too hot while you're gaming now this cooler compared to some

176
00:12:49,519 --> 00:12:54,959
of the others that we have seen is not the most impressive but they are able to

177
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:59,639
overcome some of that by just simply using liquid metal on this and of course

178
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:04,560
finally the price this model that we have right here with 32 GB of RAM

179
00:13:01,680 --> 00:13:08,560
terabyte of storage and the 470 will cost you

180
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:16,320
$2,000 us now if you do want to spend a little bit less you can get a 4060 16 GB

181
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:19,079
of RAM and a 1 tab SSD for $1,600 us

182
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:23,279
which is pretty good and it's also pretty darn close to the omen transcend

183
00:13:21,399 --> 00:13:28,880
14 which we're going to be looking at very very soon it's on my desk right now

184
00:13:25,279 --> 00:13:28,880
