Asus’ line of ROG gaming laptops has always stood out thanks to its flashy RGB lighting and aggressive aesthetics. Asus is also not afraid to try something new. Last year, it launched the well-received ROG Zephyrus G14, one of the first ROG gaming notebooks with an AMD processor, as well as the entire Zephyrus Duo 15, a dual screen gaming laptop. All the usual suspects in the ROG gaming line are being updated, but Asus has also launched a new 2-in-1 convertible gaming laptop in the mix, the ROG Flow X13. Even more wild, all gaming laptops come with AMD as a CPU option. No sign of Intel anywhere.

A 2 in 1 gaming laptop is not something I would have ever imagined I wanted in my life, but here I am, completely intrigued. To like Lenovo Yoga Laptops or Dell XPS 13 2 in 1, the Flow X13 also has 360 degree hinges that allow the screen to fold completely back. The idea of ​​playing on my laptop on my desk and then crawling into bed and using it as a e-reader or sketchbook is brand new, but I can’t help wondering why one of these things didn’t happen before. It’s a great idea!

Ah, wait – better performance means more heat, it means a thicker laptop. Yes, it is obvious why this has not happened in the past. But the hardware is powerful and thin enough now, so having a gaming laptop that doesn’t turn into an even bigger brick when the screen is turned back is possible; The Flow X13 weighs just 2.9 pounds. and has 0.62 in. of thickness. definitely the right weight and dimensions … I hope.

The 13 inch 16:10 screen comes with a choice of 120 Hz refresh rate or Ultra HD 4K screen covered with Corning Gorilla Glass. Both display options also support Adaptive Synchronize and are validated by Pantone for color accuracy.
