Lifting the lid is a simple one finger operation. I’m so glad Asus stopped making their gaming laptop lids look ridiculous with gaudy logos and red lights. In the lower corner is the ROG badge, which also looks pretty nice. There is a transition at the diagonal which makes the pattern stick out a little more. These grooves seem to cut down on the fingerprints somehow – probably just because it’s more distracting to look at. The lid is basically just a piece of dark colored aluminum with those grooves cut out. The small ridges on both top and bottom provide just enough grip to make this stand out better than just flat aluminum. I prefer gripping from the vent side since the feet are there, but it’s still fine to grab from the other side. The chassis is very balanced and is very easy to grip. Upon grabbing it from the box, I immediately felt like it was a well built chassis. Clearly a lot of thought was put into making it as small as possible and yet still be sturdy and functional.

I’m going to do a full review on my unit from my own perspective. Now Andrei already has reviewed the RTX 3060 version of this laptop, which can be read here. But my wait is over – I finally got the RTX 3070Ti version on hand, and boy am I happy with it. And it was one of those things that I was checking daily at Best Buy and Asus’ store to see if it was in stock (because they just had to post their listings two months early…). So myself being a tech junkie, of course I’m interested in a versatile machine such as this. On top of that, it flips 360 degrees and accepts touch and pen input. I’ve only heard it from some of the early reviews, but I would agree that it’s the best screen option available on a laptop over 15” to date. Not only does it have a powerful CPU and GPU in a thin chassis, but it also fixes some of the minor deal breakers that make buying a thin and light gaming option a little tougher pill to swallow – two SSD slots and two RAM slots.Īnd then there’s the matter with the screen, which is probably my main draw to it. But now that I saw what the Flow X16 had to offer, it was easy for me to decide that this is the laptop I want to use as my daily driver.
