I can report that this does not have the USBC issues thank goodness, but the jury still out on whether I'm going to keep this one.
On paper, the specs are great, in reviews this post some very impressive benchmark times, but In actual use something's just not right.
While it seems to render 4k videos very quickly, it seems to be laggy just doing normal things like browsing the internet..
Editing a timeline on DaVinci is also very jerky unless the laptops plugged in and cranked up to full performance.
This is kind of opposite of what the Lenovo was since it seemed to be quick no matter what power mode the laptop was in.
If you look through the q&a on Best buy's website, somebody asked about the maximum storage size, and ASUS official replies "4TB per slot", it used to say on Asus website 4tb purslot as well, well I bought a 4 TB hard drive to install in the second slot on this, and it didn't recognize it. After chatting with customer support, they now say it's only 2tb per slot. They've since edited their own website, but they cannot edit that Best buy description. So pretty big bummer I can't put a bigger hard drive in this thing.
Going on to the rest of it, the build quality seems good
The 4K screen is fantastic, and the 60 Hertz has not bothered me at all
Speakers are good but not great, little bit tingy
The keyboard is fantastic
Battery life is better than Lenovo I tried, but not great, in full power saving mode, 6 hours of just playing around.
But only about 3 hours if I'm actually editing 4K videos using DaVinci.
I'm currently trying to install a few games on there just to see what it'll actually play. I'll report back.
I really just wanted a good all-around laptop for editing videos, work, browsing, and a little bit of gaming on breaks. And I wanted to do most of that unplugged and last about 3 hours minimum.
It had to have a touch screen, and I wanted much higher than FHD. Maybe a 2K, 3K minimum. The 4K was a huge plus.
Ideally, a gaming laptop would be great, but I've not seen any that are touch screen. And a lot of those gaming laptops are just FHDs.
If anybody has any recommendations, I'm all ears.
I've got an "ASUS Q540 Creator" laptop with a 3050 "gaming card" in it. Creator. 3050. Not gaming.
Better to know what exactly you're talking about, first.

For the high price, you might expect a 4070 but alas, it's a 4060.

RTX 4060 for $1600 on sale? Not a deal whatsoever.

If so, that's not a 4K screen...it's 3.2K.

You are correct. Mine is actually the 15.6 in 4k screen. Not the 16 inch.
Next year will have 120hz 4k laptops. Long overdue. However, 3.2K is more than enough for 16" TBH and better for battery life (not much though)

Doesn't it matter "who" they are targeting? 120hz is not the realm of gamers anymore. It's beneficial for even simple scrolling. Nonetheless, nobody is falling for anything. If you must have 4k OLED on a laptop, then 120hz is simply not really available. Is prefer 3.2k 120hz for 16" screen rather than 60hz at 4k. If you're job is so critical that you MUST have 4k, then you're not doing it on a laptop..
