Video: Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 2025 - the ONE for EVERYTHING?!

In 2024, Asus ROG basically redefined the "thin and light" gaming laptop with the original Zephyrus G16, which packed a high-end GPU into a super sleek, well-made chassis. For 2025, we get a new CPU, up to an RTX 5090 and higher power targets. While the new Zephyrys improves upon its direct predecessor, the difference is not that massive, and the competition is not sleeping as well.

Video: Aorus Master 18 - will the RTX 5080 rule in 2025?

The Aorus Master 18 is Gigabyte's take on a modern gaming laptop with an 18-inch screen, and they pretty much nailed it on their first try. Yes, the chunky laptop is big, can get loud, and will raise some eyebrows in the boardroom, but with the stellar MiniLED display, a ton of ports, and performance that matches the somewhat aggressive styling, you are well-covered for your virtual entertainment needs. It also seems like the mobile RTX 5080 might be the sweet spot for powerful mobile GPUs in 2025 since it performs very well, even compared to its bigger 5090 sibling, while actually being quite a bit cheaper at the same time. Please enjoy our video, and for more information, stay tuned for our written review on the website!

Lenovo's Yoga 7 14 Convertible is not only much cheaper than the Yoga 9, but also better in some respects

Lenovo offers a wide product lineup and it is not easy always easy to find the right device. It is even more complicated when you have two very similar products like the two 14-convertibles we just tested, where the less expensive Yoga 7 is actually better than the Yoga 9 in some respects.

Lenovo RTX 5050 laptop joins LG Gram Pro 16 and Razer Blade in early entry-level Nvidia leaks

Despite Nvidia's radio silence about the existence of entry-level GeForce RTX 5050 and 5060 GPUs, LG, Lenovo, and Razer have already — seemingly by accident — confirmed next-gen RTX 5050 and 5060 upgrades for their entry-level gaming laptops.

Uh oh — we all knew that the mobile GeForce RTX 5090 can operate under a wide TGP range, but 120 W may be too low for comfort as the performance benefits over the mobile RTX 4090 begin to disappear.

The 2025 version of Asus's fastest and most high-end ROG gaming laptop not only comes with the latest Intel Core Ultra 9 Arrow Lake HX CPU and Nvidia's RTX 5090 laptop flagship but also boasts a completely new design and one of the best laptop displays on the market. But it is also terribly expensive and relies on a mostly plastic chassis. So, how high can the massive 18" desktop replacement set the bar for the competition, or did we already review the best big gaming laptop of 2025?!

Gaming performance with the flagship mobile RTX 5090 is closer to an upper midrange last generation GPU for desktop PCs. While somewhat disappointing, the power savings with the newer mobile chip arguably make up for it.

Cutting a few too many corners. MSI's least expensive 15.6-inch gaming laptop sports modern features like a 144 Hz IPS screen, GeForce RTX 4050 graphics, and a Core-H series processor. However, you'll want to avoid certain SKUs especially those with just 8 GB of RAM.

The mobile GeForce RTX 5090 maxes out at 175 W compared to 500+ W on the desktop RTX 5090. Consequently, even the fastest mobile RTX 5090 is just barely better than the 150 W or 160 W versions based on our ongoing tests.

In our Razer Blade 16/RTX 5090 laptop launch review, we mentioned that the sleek 16-inch laptop will most likely not be the fastest with Nvidia's new mobile flagship because of the thinner chassis and the weaker Strixpoint CPU. And we have been right since AMD turbocharges both the RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 with their new high-end fire range laptop CPUs, and we have been able to put them through their paces in the refreshed XMG Neo 16.
