    The Zenbook 14(No.5 on list) is a truly great laptop.
    I bought it for my son. He just started University. I'm sure it will last him at least until he finishes it.
    I have the older version of it with the same touch OLED display, 16Gb Ram, Ryzen 7 5800H.
    This newer version has much better camera(1080p, very good picture quality), much louder and clearer speakers, 120Hz vs my 90Hz, much better keyboard, bigger battery with longer battery life, and unfortunately fingerprints show much more on my son's laptop.

      It depends on how you use it.
      If you're really careful and save battery,
      the Zenbook 14 OLED (with ryzen 7 7730U) can go 10+ hours. Also if you don't try to save energy and use it on full tilt and full brightness, the battery can die in 2-3 hours.
      Here is one of the tests I did:

      Brightness in windows set to 80% then in My Asus app it is decreased to 60 %
      (OLED flicker free dimming)- Making the real brightness around 48%.
      (It causes the brightness to sometimes go back to 80 % without my input, it's easy to change it back(just bring back the screen from fullscreen to windowed and it goes back)
      screen refresh:60Hz, HDR is Off. Volume will be varied, will indicate in every session the percentage.
      AI noise cancelling Mic function is Off.
      Volume Booster(My Asus app) is ON,
      DTS enhancment is ON, Surround Virtualizer is ON, Volume Leveler is ON, and Equalizer is on Custom .
      Using a Bluetooth mouse (Logitech M720) when needed, also using keyboard backlight (on level 1-lowest)-when needed.

    Hi Josh, really enjoying the valuable content you're putting out! Your insights on the Framework laptop and its upgradability got me thinking. I'm currently considering the ZenBook series, particularly drawn to their OLED screens. I'm eager to hear your thoughts on the Framework laptop versus the ZenBook, given my quest for a new laptop.
    I'd also love to hear your perspective on the 14-inch laptop versus other form factors, like the 15.6 inches.
    Your video on the top 10 laptops for 14 inches was fantastic, and it's great to see the ZenBook 14 featured with its impressive 16:10 aspect ratio and OLED screen. Any chance you'll do a similar breakdown for 15.6-inch laptops? That would be incredibly helpful. What's your take on the ZenBook 15, especially with its 16:9 aspect ratio on the 15.6-inch screen?
    Thanks for consistently delivering top-notch content; your mom would undoubtedly be proud! 😊

    An excellent video, as always.
    I'm not sure though why having a touch screen and being stylus enabled don't feature at all as pluses (or why not having them isn't a con). I understand that some people might find never use a touch screen, but quite a lot of people do. In my academic department most people have Macbooks because they have the impression they're the best laptops; but those people also have to have an expensive Remarkable tablet or something similar so they can annotate academic papers by hand, which we do a lot. (We also have to sign a lot of forms that don't allow e-signatures, and using a 360 is *so* much quicker than printing them, signing them, and scanning them.)
    Other academics are often shocked to see that having a 360, I don't need to spend the extra money, to buy a tablet, don't have to always carry two devices around, and don't have problems syncing my annotated documents - a lot of people don't have 360s or stylus enabled computers just because they don't know they exist. I think that tech reviewers tend to not care about touch and stylus contributes to that, but I don't think there's a good reason for it.
    Again, I understand not everyone needs or wants touch and stylus capabilities, but that goes for most laptop features you talk about.

    I've got my m3 pro 14 (my first apple device) one or 2 weeks ago.... im a computer science student and although I might need to virtualize/emulate an x64 linux os sometimes, which is kinda annoying, I truly love it. I'm a lifetime windows user, and switched to linux 2 years ago. this year I wanted to test the MacBook in first person and oh my, I indeed recommend it!
    I no more carry the charger around! I've never heard the fans spin, no joke, not even while playing lol. what they say about this laptop is TRUE!
    I do not understand why some people hate it so much... coming from windows and linux, I do see more than one flaw, like gaming is extremely limited, macOS lacks of some basic features like tiling, or the sound mixer... I've spent an hour or so just to create a keyboard shortcut that creates a new file in the current active folder and let me choose the name of it. a feature so basic that it's almost embarrassing to not have on a 3k laptop out of the box... BUT, at last I managed to find a solution to (almost) everything... I'm so happy with my purchase, im sure you will be too! next order: iPhone 15 plus

    I love my AMD-based Framework 13. I don't know how it doesn't "feel premium" with its aluminum top and bottom covers as well as aluminum surrounding the keyboard and trackpad. It is incredibly thin, especially for being user-upgradable. Two other features I like about its screen: 1. It has a 3:2 ratio instead of the typical widescreen displays. When I watch videos, I can mouse down to the controls (stop, pause, ffwd, rev, etc.) without them overlaying the video. 2. Its screen has a matte finish. No reflections. Excellent.

      What I hate about the Framework is the design, if only they design it to look like Asus g14 from 2022 or 2023, or the newer design 2024 similar to the razer blade, then I would have absolutely support it. Right now, It is some of the hideous looking laptop I have seen.

    • @georgeh6856
      @georgeh6856 Před měsícem

      Yayaloy9 Actually, I think the design of the Framework 13 looks a lot like the previous-generation Macbook Air. It tapers front to back. The keyboard has separated black keys inset into a silver aluminum frame, which I like better than current Macbooks. The screen bezel is a bit large, but you can select different colors if you want. The back of the screen even has the Framework logo where the Apple logo would be. Sure, it is not as light or slim as even the last-gen. Macbook Air. But it does not look bad at all. And the upgradeability beats every other laptop out there.

    I know you can't fit everything but a main con of the MBA is the lack of a high refresh rate option. One pro you may have missed (or skipped due to space/time constraints) is you get better 'integrated' graphics with M2 than any other thin and light laptop without dedicated graphics (its fanless design with no corresponding noise may have been worth a mention, but that can be a pro or con, depending on how you look at it, so I understand why you may not have mentioned that point).

    Hi Josh, I bought a Lenovo Legion S7 gen 7 (i5-12500H and 3050ti 4GB model) laptop based on your recommendation :) and I'm very satisfied. Considering that I only use the laptop for programming and college purposes, that is, I don't play games, I'm interested in your opinion on whether I can use the Lenovo 65w usb-c charger all the time. For now, I'm using the charger that came with the laptop (because I haven't bought the 65w one yet), although it irritates me because it's really big (230w charger). Will it harm the laptop (whether it's the battery or the components in general) if I constantly use a 65w charger?
    Of course, if I ever think of playing games, I will certainly use the original 230w charger.
    Do you have any other suggestions I could use? Maybe some other charger such as 100w, but which model?
    PS I love your content, I look forward to every video and I'm grateful that there is someone like you, keep it up!

    You may want to verify the HDMI port speed difference on the two versions of the 9i. According to the Lenovo website, even though the 14" has 2.1, it is limited to 12GB/s. Which is slower than HDMI 2.0's maximum speed of 18 GB/s. I don't 100% know what the result of this is, but it's worth looking into.

    I’ve owned a MacBook Air M2 *13”* base model for about a year now….and based on that experience, the only real difference between it and the 15” model is the screen size - I use mine for basic html/css coding, a bit of Photoshop and I’ve recently started doing some super light and basic video-editing in iMovie….and the 8gb Ram have seemingly never had any issues handling that kind of workload. Plus, these days you can find the Air M2 13” at around 1000€/$, so it’s a way better bang for the buck than its 15” counterpart (or some Asus Zenbook 14 models).

      Intel doesn't need more performance, the performance (especially single core) is great. Their poor efficiency however is why I'd not buy an Intel laptop right now. If the next gen is same performance but matches AMD efficiency would actually be great for laptops.

    • @nfsdanz
      @nfsdanz Před 5 měsíci

      @@TheQxY I understand your point. But the idea with improving efficiency is to improve performance per watt so that there's more scope to push clock speeds within a given power draw. But this isn't happening with meteor lake, it isn't more efficient when it's being pushed, only when it's in a low power state.
      Sure, that will be a benefit for casual users who want to use their laptop on the go, but it doesn't bring anything new to the table when it comes to outright performance.
      AMD, on the other hand, is benefiting from improved efficiency across the entire TDP range. This means that they don't have to use extra E cores to make up the lost ground.
