The ASUS V16 delivers reasonable GPU performance but is let down by its partner in crime, the underpowered Intel Core 5 CPU. It's a laptop that will perform admirably when carrying out light creative tasks and will work well for graphic designers, but if you try and push it harder, then it starts to struggle.

If you want to enter the realm of gaming laptops, but don’t want to fork out a lot of money for one, then the ASUS Gaming V16 is a great laptop to consider. This specific variant retails for PHP 62,995 only, which is not bad considering what it can do. If that’s a bit too expensive for you, there’s also the more affordable ASUS Gaming X16 with an NVIDIA RTX 3050 for just PHP 49,995, but that uses an older 13th Gen Intel i5 chip. On the flip side, if you want more power, there is a variant of the G16 featuring an NVIDIA RTX 5060 GPU for PHP 74,995.For reference, the laptops come with a free ASUS backpack, 3-Months Xbox Game Pass, ASUS 2-Year International Coverage, and 1-Year Accidental Damage Warranty.Still, it’s far from perfect.

Okay then, should you buy this ASUS V16 laptop? Do I recommend it? I do think it’s a pretty good budget gaming laptop, all things considered. We do have an upgrade path – and I personally advise you to get another stick of 16GB DDR5 RAM the instant you get this laptop – and the performance is actually very good for 1080p gaming. I mean, at the price of RM3,999 only, I think it’s a great deal. Granted, the screen isn’t the best here but we can get a good 24-inch external 1080p monitor these days for a very low price.

The Asus Gaming V16 is a good buy for those venturing into the world of gaming, but not if you're a seasoned gamer. If you're on a budget and don't do a lot of gaming, this might be a good option. It's got a portable design with a decent build, a 16-inch high refresh rate display, a good keyboard, and excellent battery life. And, for those short gaming sessions between study or work, you've got the GeForce RTX 4050 GPU. At a starting price of Rs. 82,990, the Gaming V16 should certainly be on your list of budget gaming laptops.

The Asus V16 aims at the budget class of all-purpose laptops, a jack of all trades around the 1000 USD/EUR/GBP mark. That means it has to compromise here and there, so you're getting a fair chassis with alright ergonomics, but older generation hardware, a washed out display and lousy audio. The RTX 5050 configuration discussed here is arguably an interesting performer, but still needs to come down in price to be a competitive choice - should happen later in the year.

16.00:
This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.
