Linux on Laptops: ASUS Zephyrus G14 with Ryzen 9 4900HS
Enlarge / This lede image is a bit of a spoiler—but Linux fans might not want to rush out and buy a Zephyrus G14 just yet. Jim Salter The Zephyrus G14 is a dual-GPU gaming laptop, and Linux tends not to fare well with that setup. But it’s the only Ryzen 4000 equipped laptop I […]
Asus ProArt StudioBook Pro 17
Narrow screen bezels are nothing new for today’s laptops, but the Asus ProArt StudioBook Pro 17 still draws attention for the stunning 17-inch display packed into a chassis that almost looks small enough for a 15-inch laptop. In fact, Asus claims that what it calls a NanoEdge bezel gives the Pro 17 a screen-to-body ratio […]
Asus ZenScreen Go (MB16AP)

Asus ZenScreen Touch (MB16AMT)
Two things set the $ 349.99 Asus ZenScreen Touch (MB16AMT) apart from most every general-purpose mobile monitor we have reviewed. First, it has a touch screen, a feature that it shares with some interactive pen monitors like the Wacom Cintiq 16. Second, it has a built-in battery that recharges, which can be a godsend if […]
Asus ZenScreen (MB16ACE)
The Asus ZenScreen (MB16ACE) is rather conventional as recent Asus mobile monitors go, dropping the touch-screen capabilities of the Editors’ Choice-winning Asus ZenScreen Touch (MB16AMT) and the internal battery found in both the ZenScreen Touch and the Asus ZenScreen Go. The $ 229.99 MB16ACE comes in at a considerably lower price, though, and the features […]
Asus ROG Mothership GZ700
The baseline for an efficient gaming laptop has gotten sky-high, with even under-$ 1,000 budget systems offering strong full-HD gaming performance. That’s leading laptop makers to experiment with form factors to push the category further. And no such experiment is as grand as the astronomically priced Asus ROG Mothership GZ700 ($ 6,499.99). This massive 17-inch […]

Asus ROG Strix XG438Q
What do you get when you cross-breed an Nvidia Big Format Gaming Display (BFGD) with a regular-size gaming monitor? We’re not sure, exactly, but it might look something like Asus’ new 43-inch ROG Strix XG438Q. Not quite as big as a BFGD, this $ 1,099 gaming monitor impresses on size and performance, but it’s missing […]
