Archive.org versionWhile it has its faults, the Asus ROG Flow X13 provides a solid base for future iterations to build upon. 13-inch gaming laptops with this much power under the hood aren’t common, so if you need a svelte portable machine with some gaming muscle, this could be a good choice. The 2-in-1 functionality also makes the unit distinct, and could be appealing if you like the idea of a gaming laptop that doubles as a tablet. However, the underwhelming gaming performance, mediocre battery life, and cumbersome port placement leave much to be desired. Though impressive in its own right, you’re better off getting the more powerful (and similarly priced) Razer Blade 14 or Zephyrus G14 if performance is your top priority.

Archive.org versionTesting 30 games on the ASUS ROG FLOW X13 with RTX 3050 ti and a Ryzen 9 5900HS. The Worlds smallest Gaming Laptop of it's class? Important: The Laptop uses dynamic boost which is why the actual Wattage is 35-40W depending on how much the cpu is needed. If it's not needed that much, the CPU shares some of it's power draw (5W) to the GPU.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

68.5%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
