    Thank you for this detailed review. I really want this laptop. It fixes a lot of the issues of the 15inch version imo.

    And the scores on that 3050ti for video editing are brilliant. The Zephyrus S17 with 3080 I had was only getting under 1000 and this gets 923 points? Brilliant Asus.

    Another great review, thank you.

    Can you reconfirm the HDMI port is indeed wired to the dGPU ? That would allow bypassing Optimus and smoother gameplay.

    Thanks,

    Any word on the release date? All I see is that it’s on back order through adorama.

    I've been using earlier models of this for the past few years and I am totally hooked on the form factor. As a motion graphic artist and computer musician, being able to see a timeline on the second display is a brilliant innovation and I am really glad Asus have stuck with it. Like the previous model, this seems to build on what already work really well, offering more screen space and better displays.

    Having the keyboard at the bottom of the chassis also turns out to be a huge advantage if you use a Wacom tablet or, like me, a MIDI controller keyboard. My Roli Seaboard Block sits perfectly in front of my laptop but still allows easy access for typing. I'd also point out that the height above your desk is pretty much identical to the desktop keyboards most of us have used for decades, so you don't need a wrist rest to type in perfect comfort.

    After reading this review, I am definitely going to purchase one today so thanks for all the info.

    Does this model also has the grainy screen problem as the 14X OLED model?

    Have you tested it's microphone?, I recently purchased it's i9 varient and the mics pick up a lot of noise, seems like noise cancellation mics are adding noise instead of subtracting them. Any solution?
