QuoteAsus also offers flicker-free OLED dimming via its software.

Hi, ok that's great and all, but why didn't you show that in the review and cover it at least briefly?

I'm part of the group of people who cannot use MacBook Pros or a range of Windows laptops due to eye strain, headaches, etc., from certain displays. The flicker-free option I saw mentioned at the Asus website could be very beneficial to potential buyers.

It's disappointing to see that not covered in the very same section where the PWM measurements are displayed.

Thanks.

Can you easily carry that desktop around in your bag on your back? How long can it work without being plugged in to the wall?

I agree about the price but the whole point of a laptop is mobility when needed. So the comparison is weird.

If 100% is "all light reflected", then 35% still is a mirror. A matte display would have something like <0.5%.

Not one comment from the reviewer on how glossy the display is? Just glossy=yes in the specs? Does their anti-reflex coating work or are you still looking yourself in the mirror anytime the background is dark?

Asus claim: "Anti-reflection coating reduces light reflections by 65%(*), delivering better clarity."

(*): Reflection data is based on laboratory measurements. There may be slight variations among different models.

im more worried about the wifi card I think its mediatek.

The only AMD devices that I am aware of that are the exception to this rule are the legion go (1st gen only) and that hawk point minisforum tablet with detachable keyboard. These both have intel nic's as far as I'm aware. But yeah, it's sad there aren't more by now. If any knows any others feel free to list them here.

idk why people like AMD its literally garbage
not only is it worst performance, but you also get shittier wifi card with your laptop, and no thunderbolt 5. Intel is just superior.
Also ASUS always has weird SSD card choices, instead of using Samsung or Western Digital they use Micron 2500, but this is a minor issue, im more worried about the wifi card I think its mediatek.
Anyways I'll probably buy this laptop because it did so much things correctly, i love the aesthetic, the 5090, the display.

Can you please do a direct comparison to Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i aura edition — compare keyboard feel, Wifi speeds, display reflections, etc. Thank you sir

Asus is on the upgrade march, and its ProArt P16 is now available with an extremely bright tandem OLED panel and the mobile GeForce RTX 5090 with 24 GB of VRAM. Is this the perfect multimedia laptop and long-awaited Windows alternative to Apple's MacBook Pro 16 with the M4 Max?
