  • My thoughts on the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (2021) after using it for the majority of my PC gaming over the past 3 months. Still the best 14-inch gaming laptop in 2021.

    Try registering multiple fingerprints for the same finger. This worked for me. Try different angles when you register it. Also, when you press to turn it on keep it there for like 1~2 secs. I hope this helps
