[CES 2024] ASUS Unveils the New Zephyrus & Strix Laptops, Featuring OLED Display and More 

ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) has revealed the latest laptops of their Zephyrus lineup, now featuring a complete redesign.

Aside from the Zephyrus laptops, the ROG Strix family will also be revamped, with both the 16″ and 18″ now offering Nebula HDR panels with Mini LED backlights with over 2,000 dimming zones.

ASUS Zephyrus 

In 2024, the Zephyrus G14 and G16 both received a complete design overhaul, featuring an all-aluminum and ultra-sleep chassis with an all-new Slash lighting array across the lid that users can customize with customizable lighting patterns. 

The machines will be available in either the traditional Eclipse Gray or the new Platinum White color option with a premium matte finish.

The Zephyrus G14 will weigh in at just 1.5 kg and is 1.59 thick, while the G16 weighs about 1.85 kg at 1.49 cm thick.

Furthermore, both Zephyrus machines will be the first ROG laptops to have a Nebula Display with an OLED panel and one of the first G-SYNC OLED displayed available on a gaming laptop.

ROG collaborated with Nvidia and Samsung Display to refine the refresh rate and sync the process of this panel, increasing the pixel emission rate to 960 Hz, far higher than a standard OLED panel.

The 2024 Zephyrus G14 comes equipped with the latest AMD Ryzen 8000 Series processor and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU, while its Thermal Grizzly liquid metal on the CPU, tri-fan cooling solution, and 2nd Gen Arc Flow Fans keep the device cool. 

For the Zephyrus G16, selected models will come paired with an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor 185H and up to an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU.

The laptop will also have a custom vapor chamber and dual-fan design built in, boasting an ultra-portable chassis of just 1.49 cm thick while said to offer flagship levels of gaming and content creation performance.

Both models are shipped with three months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, providing access to a library of hundreds of high-quality games.

ROG Strix 

This year will also mark the introduction of the first 18-inch ROG Nebula HDR Display, which will be featured in the 2024 Strix SCAR 16 and 18, with both models offering upgraded Mini LED panels that boast over 2,000 discrete dimming zones and 1,100 nits of peak brightness.

The increased density coupled with the ROG Nebula HDR Engine is noted to minimize blooming and haloing, making the Strix SCAR 16 and 18 vivid in display.

While the ROG Nebula HDR panels are exclusive to the Strix SCAR line, all the displays available in the 2024 Strix family offer a 2.5K 240 Hz refresh rate panel with a less than 3 ms gray-to-gray response time. 

Moreover, the panels will have an extra tall 16:10 aspect ratio and 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space.

Specifications

The new 2024 ROG laptops are scheduled to launch this 19th January 2024 in Malaysia with prices yet to be announced.
