Reviews for the Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 GU605CX

90% A slim gaming laptop now with an RTX 5090 and 64 GB of RAM - Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 2025 review | Notebookcheck
Asus has updated its slim ROG Zephyrus G16 gaming laptop. For the 2025 models, the top-of-the-line version will feature an Arrow Lake processor and the new GeForce RTX 5090. The RAM remains soldered, but the maximum memory capacity has been doubled to 64 GB.
90% The slimmest gaming notebooks with the RTX 5090 Laptop - Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 vs. Razer Blade 16 | Notebookcheck
If you want the slimmest gaming notebook with the GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop, you currently have the choice between the Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 and the Razer Blade 16. But the performance is not everything.
100% ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 Ultimate Review: The definitive 16-inch gaming laptop
Source: Android Headlines English
Really, it all depends on whether you want something that is very high-performance but also portable. There are other high-performance laptops that would potentially cost less money, but you would be looking at something that was likely bigger and not as easy to carry around. For example, a larger, 18-inch laptop or a 16-inch laptop that isn’t as slim will likely weigh more. So, while you could carry them around in a backpack, provided you have the right backpack, they’d be heavier, and you probably wouldn’t want to carry them around on your back most of the day. The thing is, slimmer laptops like the ROG Zephyrus G16 2025 with the higher-end GPUs take quite a bit of engineering, and that gets reflected in the price, unfortunately. So, if you’re someone who wants as portable a laptop as possible, but also with the best specs possible, then you should buy this laptop.
