Okay deal on the 13 2022. Most places have this model for $2299. Been keeping an eye on it for a while and finally pulled the trigger. Unsure when the sale finishes.

  Not bad, considering it's a pretty unique laptop in terms of spec.

  Why would you put a dgpu in 13” laptop? Insn’t the igpu of 6800 good enough?

    Dvbargain on 01/12/2022 - 21:19

    To get better graphics performance….

    Same reason you'd put a DGPU in any laptop with any size screen lol

    rdna2 is good but its still a good amount behind a (even at this low power sku) 3050m. The major selling point of such a machine is unrivalled specs in this form factor as no other brand does it. If your workload requires nvidia gpus - as most softwares are much better optimised for - the gain of a 3050m in those categories is very considerable.

    680m is about 1/2 way there. It crushes general tasks but intels Xe can do that too. It doesn't quite have what it takes to replace a dgpu with most games, so it doesn't matter that it crushes the Xe if you need a dgpu anyway to get a good gaming experience.

      apparently that will change with the next gen Ryzen mobiles with RDNA3 iGPUs.

  pretty good price considering how niche of a product this is

  Asus may not be the best laptop maker out there but they are definitely the most innovative one and I appreciate them for that if not anything else.

  Definitely your top choice for the best hardware in an extremely compact form factor and very good battery life for a x86 machine. The XGmobile interface is also fasinating just if they had sold them here officially and hopefully at a not-so-big markup like some of the other asus machines.

  Anyone know roughly the Battery life on standard at school use?

    Roughly 5-6hours, need a powerbank if you want a full day run

  My biggest turnoff for this device, from what I've read, is that it only charges at 65W through 3rd party chargers.

  Kind of defeated my reasoning for buying this device as I'd still have to carry around a separate charger for this device. I have a ton of 100W Gaan chargers in different bags thanks to all the deals on here

  Have been rocking one of these for about 6 months now. Really solid PC and stupid powerful for the size.

  Had a fun international trip earlier in the year, gaming for most of the flight with everything set to max.

  Caveats to be aware of:
  Battery life sucks. You can get more juice or of it but need to be monitoring and controlling power states.

  Personal thing, but I'm not a big fan of the tablet form factor. I wish it had more of a fat hinged keyboard so I could use it on my lap.

  I haven't been able to find a dock that supports it in 'full performance mode'. Most docks, even fancy rated ones don't pull the full 100 watts.

  Asus have also enabled USB 4 on this laptop, so you can use a TB3/4 eGPU instead of the proprietary PCIE connector.
