After purchasing the 2024 G14, I agree with everything you said except for your evaluation of the speakers. I agree that nothing is better than the Macbook, but the 2024 G14 speakers are quite full, bassy, clear, and immersive. Even the review on Linus Tech Tips gave the Macbook and the new G14 an equal evaluation on speakers. These are the BEST speakers I listened to on any Windows PC laptop. Calling them "tinny" was a strange evaluation, as they don't seem tinny to me at all...

Interesting. We actually held a 2 hour session to re listen to it side by side with the MacBook Pro 14..... and... we bought a new Mic to better reproduce laptop speakers audio for you guys. We previously were using a vocal mic to record the clips we showed you in the video. Sennheisser themselves suggested a different type of mic. Anyway, we agree the G14's speakers are great, but we still feel the MBP 14 has the edge :)

@@JustJoshTech Notebookcheck always shows a frequency response measurement for the laptop speakers and the 2024 G14 is one of the best devices ever tested, with response virtually identical to the MBP 14 except for a little lack in treble (can be fixed with EQ). I think your review on this device is very well-made, and I like it, but I do not at all understand your evaluation on the speakers. All HP, Dell, Lenovo, and Acer Laptops have worse bass response compared to the G14/G16, except some old gaming monsters with Subwoofers.

@kavelab699 I'm going to be honest with you. We tested the G14 side by side with the Macbook several times as we were also confused. We tried multiple different songs. Even had 2 other people come in to listen. The Macbook Pro repeatedly sounded better. And yes we played with settings. Also because we couldn't demonstrate this to you. We called Sennheisser themselves to try to get a more appropriate microphone for recording audio from speakers. We ordered 2 new ones in. Even they could not reproduce the difference we were hearing. We spent hours on this comparison btw. Hours. Morale of the story if the Macbook Pro 14 is a 10 out of 10. G14 is a 8.5. So close but not quite there

I totally agree. I have come to point where I'm considering an upgrade and I've specifically been interested in the Asus G14/G16 versus the HP Omen Transcend 14. Can't wait for the Omen Transcend to arrive in the studio. Amazing review and I want to ask if you would be doing a review of the 16 inch version of the Asus Zephyrus line for 2024? Unlike the G14, the G16 for this year's Intel's Meteor Lake processesors. I'm curious to how significant the difference is when it comes to things like how much power is being drawn for it. I understand performance would likely be more but I think many viewers would want to know if the performance difference and overall experience is worth sacrificing the portability and what seems to be a dream come true of the G14 for this year.

Hey Josh, your graphics score in time spy (9 121) is much lower than the ones obtained by another reviewer (EtaPrime) at 11 615, which beats last year's 4060 and Blade 14 scores in your graph. Perhaps you have run the benchmarks in balance mode?
@JustJoshTech
7 ай бұрын
Asus ROG doesn't have a Balanced mode. We ran Performance. He ran Turbo. Turbo adds 15 watts (10 base and 5 boost) to get to the 90w. We found that out after. We thought those settings only affected CPU. As we already had graphics performance set to Ultimate. Anyway, we will be doing an updated video with the G14 4060. This model will be in that video, too, with updated scores. That being said.... the 4070 is underpowered compared to other 4070s out there, and Turbo mode is insanely loud, so most people will want to avoid it. I feel our conclusions hold true. I would have immediately reposted the video if I felt we were missleading

Love the redesign. Just from a usability standpoint, two huge things are finally making me consider this laptop: 1. Moving the ports back so that they aren’t so far down the side of the chassis. 2. Removing the Ergo-lift hinge. I know some people liked it but as someone who actually uses their laptop on their lap around the house when doing light work on sofas, etc, this is a huge comfort thing. Most screens don’t go back 180 degrees anyway so I am not really going to be missing anything there either.

@JoshCravesTech

Ok yeah, just confirmed that all the benchmarks were run in Balanced. Just watched a review that got MUCH higher scores across the board in Turbo. I think this will cause some misconceptions in people’s heads (it already is on the G14 subreddit) that the new G14 performs terribly, when in reality Asus just tunes their Balanced (Performance) mode differently on every laptop, every year. Benchmarking Turbo to Turbo makes more sense to understand the true capabilities of a machine, especially since these are “benchmarks” after all. And then of course throw in some benchmarks in Balanced and Silent to balance things out and offer more perspective. Overall very thorough and excellent review though! I just think it should’ve been made more clear about the Balanced/Performance mode thing, and what that means for the benchmarks provided. Also I know it’s kind of Asus’s fault too for naming their Balanced mode “Performance”. Makes no sense, so can’t be too upset about it.

Thanks for the video! I was really interested in 2024 model, but I think I'll stick with my 2023 4070 G14. Using G Helper on G14 goes a long way to make this laptop a very good experience. My G14 basically run cooler on all performance modes with undervolts and modified power limit. I especially love my modified Silent mode that I use for office work and entertainment (light use). Basically no fan needed! They never turned on, but laptop still run very cool at around 30-42 C based on CPU monitoring (comfortable keyboard temp). The only thing I want G14 to improve are the speakers, so I was really curious how 2024 speakers perform, expecting it to have macbook speakers quality. But based on your comment, I guess it's not as good as I expected it to be? I'm sure it's better than the 2023 model, but I need to hear it myself.

I would seriously consider this, but OLED is a no-go for me as I work off an external monitor most of the time while the laptop's screen contains mostly static content over the course of an 8-hour work day.

You can turn the screen off when using an external monitor can’t you? Or at the very least have some type of screen saver/animated video playing.

ASUS ships their OLED stuff with a lot of preventative measures for burn-in. They have a pixel shifter and a timed screensaver thing available.

@@JayRello1 No because I use the second screen for apps I need to have open but don't always have to pay attention to fully during a work day eg Outlook and Teams.

Yes, that remains the biggest downside to OLEDs; burn-in. That is why Apple has not used OLEDs in its laptops. Instead, it developed its own dual-pane OLEDs, increasing the life of the panel >2X and negating burn-in, even having 2X the brightness!

I'm stuck between Asus ROG Strix G16 and Lenovo Legion Pro 5i. Can you help? Asus: i7-13650HX, RTX 4060, 512GB SSD, 16GB RAM Lenovo: i7-13700HX, RTX 4060, 1TB SSD, 16GB RAM. Which one should I choose? Both are similarly priced in my country. However, I've heard about Asus having a CPU heating issue. Could you compare them in terms of material quality, cooling, display, and performance? I am an architecture student, mainly using 3D programs and occasionally playing AAA games.

Thanks for another balanced review Josh. ASUS is my choice for Windows laptops (I currently have a VivoBook S15), and the G14 is very appealing.

Positive - Love the coverage of the GPU vs. last years model, very informative. Negatives - There is a framework laptop with a dedicated GPU and I dont get the repeated comparisons to a mac as I assume this is a gaming laptop. High point - laughing at the concept of anyone giving a monkeys about the speakers on a gaming laptop, get some gaming headphones and play like a Pro.

Can you also test battery life when screen display white content like web browsing and text editing. You'll see that those laptops with oled screens get much less battery life.

In Canada, the G14 (2024) is $2999 with 4070 and 32gb ram. The HP spectre with 32gb ram and 155 intel with arc graphics comes in at $1999. For a $1000 difference, id pick the HP spectre 14 all day.

The hp transcend 14 is a better buy, seeing that it uses usb-c for its standard power. Though hp doesn't have g-helper :( and the omen big brothers have jet engine fan noise. It's an amd vs intel thing as well.

Sir can you reply that in which condition new HP laptops goes to 48Hz? I have seen your HP spectre video but in dynamic refresh rate it says 60 or 120hz. So if we play Netflix video in power saving mode or 48Hz mode so we could get more battery life.

The g14 with the 32 ram and 8945 and 4070 is impossible to find. It is frequently replaced with the 7940hs with 16 gb ram instead. Does anyone have a link for the one advertised in the video? I’m stationed in Guam / overseas and best buy will not deliver.

Turns out it doesnt matter how good a GPU use - it could be a 4090 - if the cooling & power delivery are limited to 100w to the GPU, it will behave like a 4060 ...
