Asus has been trying to save gaming laptops from body shaming for a while now. The company launched its Zephyrus thin and light gaming laptops a couple of years back and then, it brought the Zephyrus G14 last year which was among the most compact 14-inch gaming laptops in the market.
However, now the company has something in hand which will not only save gaming laptops from being called big and bulky but also break the myth behind being loud by design and aesthetics. At the same time, it is also capable of putting most ultra-thin and light laptops to shame.
The machine we are talking about is the all-new ROG Flow X13 — Asus’ first gaming laptop with 13.3-inch display with ultra-portable and compact design.
The laptops come with dedicated Nvidia GeForce graphics. Plus, it is powered by among the most powerful AMD Ryzen 5000 series processors. Apart from that, it offers a big battery, up to 4K touch display, liquid metal cooling system, a dedicated PCIe express slot for external graphics card support and all that in a thin and light 2-in-1 form factor.
We definitely don’t have any idea how Asus managed to engineer everything inside a machine of this size. But, what we can tell you is whether this machine is a tiger sleeping in a wolf’s body or it is just another thin and light laptop with big hopes. Let’s find out in our full review of Asus ROG Flow X13.
Asus ROG Flow X13: Design and display
Just like a thin and light chassis design, Asus has been trying to tone down its ROG laptop’s aggressive aesthetics by opting for a much cleaner and simple design. The ROG Flow X13 is a step ahead in that pursuit.
The Flow X13’s completely blacked out design not only makes it a better overall machine as a whole convertible laptop, but it kind of retains that ‘muted’ gaming appeal as well. The sandblasted exterior texture gives a carbon-fibre look to it and it gives a much premium and ‘brutal’ look to it as a gaming machine.
The keyboard deck is also Black with even thinner textured lines. Asus has mentioned that they have used a different paint job that maintains an optimal temperature. We tested it by keeping it below or AC for around an hour and the laptop top and bottom area still felt optimal to hold comfortably without feeling extra cold like we see with metal body laptops.
