Reviews for the Asus ProArt P16 H7606WP
The ProArt P16 is a 16-inch multimedia laptop that received a lot of criticism last year because of its 60 Hz 4K OLED display. Now, it has been given a 120 Hz 2.8K OLED panel, but it suffers weaknesses in its HDR brightness in particular.

Collectively, the ASUS ProArt P16 is a fantastic tool for anybody who needs a laptop for video editing, graphic design, photo editing, and content creation in general. The specs are fantastic, and while the battery isn’t great, we can forgive that misstep as the P16 is thin and powerful, so a corner has to be cut somewhere. However, the price here is hard to swallow. At R74 999, we understand that tariffs, the global economy etc, are all in the gutter, but ouch. For this money, you could build a similar desktop and potentially beef up the performance further. Hell, the ProArt is more expensive than an M4 MacBook Pro. If you shop around, you could pick up a similarly capable laptop for far less than what ASUS is charging here.

Now we come to the only serious reason not to buy the ProArt P16. With prices starting at £2399 inc VAT and this model costing around £2799 inc VAT, there's a good chance that you can't afford it. If you have a serious business case and the budget, however, then it's actually great value. The nearest thing to an equivalent MacBook Pro would cost you in the region of £2899 with a 512GB SSD, 48GB of RAM, and no discrete graphics card. Move up to the model with the 16-core M4 Max CPU, 40-core GPU, and 1TB of storage, and you're looking at an outlay of £3999.

If you're looking for a powerful laptop with solid hardware and a rich, dynamic feature set, I recommend the Asus ProArt P16 as a solid choice for advanced creators who want to challenge the status quo and enjoy tinkering with customization settings to maximize creative output. However, if you're looking for an out-of-the-box creative powerhouse, I recommend the Apple M3 or M4 MacBook Pro. It has all the powerful hardware ready to tackle creative tasks and couldn't possibly be easier to set up. If you like the ProArt P16 but want something a bit more accessible, Asus' ProArt PZ13 is a more compact version at almost half the price.

The ASUS ProArt P16 update was very minor and only affected the video accelerator. But you shouldn't be critical of this. The chassis is still quite fresh and surprisingly successful, so no upgrades were required here. The vast majority of components are also perfectly selected, and the new NVIDIA chips have added relevance and a certain increase in graphics performance, which is unlikely to be superfluous to anyone. Subjectively, this particular model is a little lacking in display options with a faster matrix. And here we are not talking so much about games as about the general comfort of everyday work. On the other hand, for those users for whom this moment is important, there is the same laptop, but from the ROG Zephyrus G16 line. But by choosing the latter, the buyer will lose the touch display and DialPad.

Looking through the specifications of this latest ProArt P16, it's difficult to see how they could improve the phenomenal ProArt P16. A boost in the graphics and storage does make a good incremental update and keeps this relevant, but there are still small issues, such as the glossy screen and fan noise under load.

The ASUS ProArt P16 is pretty much everything an ambitious creative professional could hope for. It pairs up to 64GB of RAM with a 50-series graphics card to provide fantastically smooth operation even during the heaviest graphic loads, the AI optimisation is excellent, and ASUS' proprietary Creator Hub (and the included Capcut sub) just keeps getting better and more useful with every iteration. The touchscreen makes it ideal for artists who want to have hands-on control of their creation, and the colour and brightness is a video editor's dream. Yes, it's expensive and heavy and the fact the power port is completely unique (and thus incompatible with anything but ASUS' own cables) is an extra niggle, but these are small complaints for a big creative winner.

The Asus ProArt P16 (2025) is an impressive Windows laptop for creatives with lots of power, sublime looks and a gorgeous OLED screen. It also has an impressive port selection and decent battery life. You are going to pay a lot for the privilege of using it, though. With this in mind, the Apple MacBook Pro M4 is half the price in its base spec, with a chip that definitely trades blows with the Ryzen AI HX 370, while it also has stronger battery life. With this in mind, this Asus option is better for gaming, and benefits from a fantastic OLED display, even if at vast expense. It’s easily one of the best laptops we’ve used in a while.

Asus hasn’t made any drastic changes with this year’s ProArt P16, yet we’re still fans of this creative workhorse. We can’t get enough of the gorgeous 4K OLED display and were surprised to find the sleek all-black design grew on us every time we reached for it or pulled it out of our bag – ‘if it ain’t broke’ and all that. But that’s a two-edged sword. As of writing this, Asus still offers last year’s ProArt P16 with the same fantastic CPU, a slightly older RTX 4070 GPU, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD for R65,000. If you don’t strictly need more RAM, that’s a pretty good deal and could make this one a tougher sell to most folks.

The Asus ProArt P16 2025 is an amazingly fast laptop like its predecessor, making it a stunning option with fantastic performance for photographers, videographers and designers, etc. In terms of specs and hardware, the new model is the same, with the only real difference being some design tweaks on the premium laptop body and a new GPU option. It’s also slightly less expensive, which is great, but it’s still a high-end and expensive laptop. That said, performance is still outstanding, and if you want the most powerful version, you can opt for the model that has an RTX 5070 GPU. The screen remains fantastic with excellent image quality and a wide colour gamut for colour-critical creative work. Plus, you can pair it up with the Asus Pen for pen display-style functionality.

The 2025 Asus ProArt P16 is still one of the most beautiful compact performance laptops available out there, with an all-black minimalist design, alright ergonomics, a 4K OLED display, and punchy audio. It switches to RTX 5000 Blackwell hardware for this model year, while everything else remains unchanged. And sure, the 5060/5070 offer an increase in graphics capabilities, but the price premium between generations make the 2025 models a hard sell today (might change over the next months).

The ASUS ProArt P16 H7606 (2025) emerges as a truly formidable workstation, skillfully blending immense power with a remarkably elegant and portable design. Aimed squarely at creative professionals who demand both top-tier performance and exceptional visual fidelity, this machine impresses with its robust CNC aluminum unibody construction, sophisticated “Nano Black” finish, and surprisingly thin and light profile, especially considering the high-end AMD Ryzen AI CPU and NVIDIA RTX 50-series graphics it can house. The centerpiece is undoubtedly its stunning 16-inch 4K OLED touch display, delivering breathtaking visuals with full DCI-P3 coverage, excellent factory color accuracy, and the infinite contrast inherent to OLED technology.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
