Reviews for the Asus ROG Flow Z13 GZ301V
Nvidia's new, more efficient RTX 40 generation makes it possible: the high-end graphics cards can be packed into ever smaller form factors. Asus takes this even further, simply installing an RTX 4060 in a 13-inch tablet instead of a 13-inch laptop. This comes with a magnetic keyboard, thus doubling it as a convertible. So can we play AAA games on tablets now?

While it’s not the most performant gaming laptop around, the Asus ROG Flow Z13 is unlike any other device I’ve ever tested. Not only is it a very compact machine, it’s got plenty of power for a lot of games, and more than enough oomph for creative work. Its biggest weakness is by far its battery life, making it a poor mobile workstation, at least as long as you’re away from a wall socket. For my purposes, though, the Asus ROG Flow Z13 would be a much better mobile powerhouse with a high-powered AMD APU inside, like what comes in the Razer Blade 14. That way, the Flow could get great on-the-go runtime, have enough pep to run the occasional game on the road, but when back home can dock up with an external GPU for more resource-intensive games and programs. But, if you like your laptops small, but don’t want to compromise on power, then the Asus ROG Flow Z13 is an excellent little beast.

The ROG Flow Z13 is still a unique device, a powerful all-purpose computer in a compact 13-inch tablet form factor. In fact, it's significantly more powerful in this 2023 update than the previous generation, and offers a display that's better suited for everyday use, creative work, and gaming. Just make sure the format is right for you, and that the middling battery life suffices your needs.

ASUS had a great idea with the original ROG Flow when it was released last time, but unfortunately, technical hurdles limited the potential of the gaming tablet. That’s no longer the case with the ROG Flow Z13 (2023), as advancements in GPU tech have turned the idea of a powerful, thin, and light tablet into reality. It’s not often that you’ll be able to play AAA games with graphical settings set to ultra in a random Starbucks, but that’s the flexibility and the freedom that the ROG Flow Z13 (2023) gives you. The only issue is the price – at Php 140,000, the ROG Flow Z13 (2023) is expensive, far more expensive than your typical high-end gaming laptop. But then again those things are usually not as powerful, or as compact as ASUS’ latest gaming tab.

Other than Apple fitting the M1 and M2 chips in its tablets, we are yet to see Windows machines take this power leap. While the ROG Flow Z13 has its shortcomings, it certainly knows how to make its presence felt. This is a stupidly powerful machine in a crazy shell that is meant to enable you to carry it wherever you go. You can use it as a standalone machine or hook it up to an external monitor and enjoy its full power at your beck-and-call. Of course, you can buy laptops with more horsepower from competing lineups, but this is going to be a different experience from a conventional gaming laptop. And that’s because Asus is headed in a good direction if it steadily keeps improving upon it. This is a second-generation product right now. But three or four years down the line, it could shed a lot of weight, gain some hours in battery life, and have even more power.

The ASUS ROG Flow Z13 is an incredibly specific product catering to a very specific niche – the people who wants a 2-in-1 that also happens to be capable of running AAA titles. You can find the first group of people fairly easily by itself, and you also can find plenty of gamers out there. I wonder how many people actually contemplated on buying this exact laptop, because even the Flow X13 would’ve been a much more sensible option – you still get touchscreens, better cooled hardware, slightly more expansive I/O and bigger battery too. At RM8,999 (the sole spec coming to Malaysia so far), this is far from the ‘value’ option even among ROG models, so you’ll need to evaluate if portability-over-performance is more suitable for you, or a more conventional performance-over-portability clamshell gaming laptop will get the job done better. If you happen to fit within that tiny niche of needing a high-performance gaming tablet and Flow X13 just won’t cut it for whatever reason, well – you don’t really have a second option, do you?

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.
