Yeah, snagged one locally for under 1k. I'll play the used laptop lottery at that price.

Tempted to return the 3060 version I picked up for 750 and get this. Not sure if it's worth the 300 extra though.

You get a webcam, higher resolution screen, bigger trackpad and of course newer graphics and cpu for extra 300. AMD and ASUS said this model might get usb4 / thunderbolt 3 support

Found an open box 'excellent' nearby for just over $1k. This has the 3ms, 500nit Nebula Display (IPS). That and the return window of after NY's made my bite. Anyone want a lightly used X13?

Does this have the heating issues present on previous models? I'm seriously debating between this at the g15 strix advantage edition for $1100 that I have an order placed for - but hasn't shipped.

I bought and ultimately returned this laptop open box for $1000 a couple weeks ago.

It's an awesome machine and I enjoyed my time with it. Ultimately it just boiled down to me coming to the realization that I was trying to justify a work laptop that had some gaming chops. Then the inherent compromises that come with gaming laptops (heat, fan noise, gamery aesthetic, bulky barrel charger, etc.) set in and I decided to keep rolling with base model M1 Air that I already have.

If the next revision of the G14 charges completely over USB C, I'll likely make the switch.

Are there any gaming laptops with USB C..?

The XPS lineup will pack a 3050 or 3050ti on USB-C charging. But I don't know if too many others because true gaming GPUs pull more like 80 to 140 watts. Add that to a modern power hungry CPU, and USB-C just can't keep up in its current iteration.

This G14 will charge just fine over USB-C. A YT reviewer found that the performance degraded something like 30% when using a 100 watt charger, but gaming was still completely possible.

Yep. According to this Video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ISM_TxliRI ), performance falls to around 86% when charging via USB-C charger, which wouldn't be a bad tradeoff while running from a small GaN-charger.

I believe the ROG Flow x13 charges over USB C. Hopefully new power delivery standards and USB 4 can accommodate power for these more powerful laptops. I am pretty ignorant to how feasible that is though.

Should be noted that charging over USB C on the G14 is not recommended as it is wears out the battery very quickly.

Why would that be? I can find no documentation with that recommendation. Not to mention that ASUS markets the USB-C charging as a feature and literally provides/sells a compact ROG-themend 100W USB-C charger alongside the ROG (incl. G14) lineup for exactly that use case.
