ASUS ROG Malaysia’s mid-2022 announcement includes a total of 4 new ROG class gaming laptops including 3 for the Zephyrus family and 1 for the Flow. Let’s see what are they fitted with and how much they cost.
And for context, all devices are using the AMD Ryzen 6000 series mobile CPUs and a mix of GPUs from NVIDIA and AMD themselves so bare with us as we brief you through the highlights if you haven’t already known.
First, we have the ROG Flow X13 refreshed with the latest computing hardware alongside a pair of visual choices of either absolute clarity of 4K/60Hz or smooth and silk 1080p/120Hz while maintaining the portable form factor. Still rocking a good old 1.7mm key travel keyboard, the robust I/O of HDMI, USB-A, and USB-C together with the proprietary XG Mobile interface allows you to juice up your game anywhere you go.

GV301R-ELI192W | AMD Ryzen™ 7 6800HS NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 3050 Ti 4GB GDDR6 13.4″ 4K 60Hz 16:10 32GB LPDDR5 1TB M.2 NVMe™ PCIe® 4.0 SSD Bundled Items: ROG Sleeve, ASUS Pen, ROG Impact Gaming Mouse, XG Mobile (RX6850M XT) | RM13,999 |

Now we have the baller laptop of all time, the Zephyrus Duo 16 which packs the very best of the best in terms of silicon power and display capabilities. Rocking the strongest Ryzen 9 6980HX and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Laptop GPU, nothing can stop you from doing all sorts of productive and heavy gaming work. The ScreenPad Plus now rises up and slides back to meet the primary display while kicking in the AAS Plus 2.0 cooling system to draw in more air for more effective heat transfer.
Moving onto the display, it is packed with some of the industry-leading techs. For starters, it uses a Dual Spec panel created exclusively by ROG and BOE that can switch between 4K/120Hz and FHD/240Hz seamless so you can enjoy both scenery-focused games and competitive titles with the best experience at hand. Or if this is not your thing, the new ROG Nebula HDR panel carries all the Nebula has to offer but it is now powered by Mini LED to create an 1100 nits peak brightness for the best HDR coverage possible and it is no slick when it comes to the usual specs as well because it runs at 165Hz and is VESA DisplayHDR1000 certified.
To be the star child of ROG, of course, it’s gonna get a bunch of honorable feature mentions like the ROG NumberPad, per-key RGB keyboard with 1.7mm travel, Dual Force Cancelling Woofers, Dolby Atmos, Hi-Res audio, two-way AI Noise Cancellation, and more – all in a smaller footprint than the previous gen.

The Zephyrus G15 also makes a return for 2022 as the “high class” gaming laptop that is better equipped with things that match their price tags better. With a Ryzen 7 chip plus a topped-off NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti together with all the flairs like the AniMe Matrix display and clean-cut colors, it can be simplified as the old but gold but it’s not old but new.

Last we have the smaller boy Zephyrus G14 that was given the ROG Nebula display offering 16:10 QHD resolution at 120Hz with 3ms response time alongside Dolby Vision, Adaptive-Sync, and PANTONE Validation to make sure you get great visuals for gaming and doing work. Aside from being a gaming powerhouse, the Dolby Atmos, a 3D mic array with two-way AI Noise Cancelation, and blazing-fast Wi-Fi 6E wireless chipset basically sum up this machine’s identity.
