Deal rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • Reasons to buy:
  • Gorgeous design
  • Lightweight 14-inch form-factor
  • Great specs for the money
  • Avoid if:
  • You're on a budget
  • You want a bigger display

By far and away the biggest selling point of the Asus Zephyrus G14 is its super-slim and portable 14-inch form factor. Despite having some serious components under the hood, this machine is more than capable of being tossed in a rucksack on the daily commute or carried to class. It's quite simply a powerful all-around laptop with a lovely design that doesn't sacrifice portability. 

Speaking of power, this latest 2022 model features a respectable lineup of a Radeon RX 6700S graphics cards, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and a Ryzen 9-6900HS processor. Couple these with a 120Hz display that's capable of 2560 x 1600 resolution and you've got a recipe for serious gaming on the go. It's likely you won't be able to max out the graphical settings on all titles at this huge resolution, but the RX 6700S is a pretty damn powerful card - and 1080p will still look great on a 14-inch display. 

If this Asus Zephyrus G14 is a little out of your price range, or you want a few more high-end options, check out more of today's best gaming laptop deals just below.
