Agreed! The 2022 model had one stick ram soldered. Yuck! This model (2023) has no soldered ram but two slots (one holding the included 16GB stick) which allow for upgrade to 64GB DDR5 4800! If you get this laptop, first thing to do is upgrade the ram. You won't get much more future proof in a laptop right now for $1500.

The ROG zephyrus series is more premium than the TUF series. Zephyrus laptops are usually lighter with better battery life, build quality, and have extra features like silent mode and vapor chamber.
TUF is better if you need performance for a lower price, and Zephyrus is better if you need performance, portability, and all the bells and whistles.

Hech yeah!! I am glad I missed the $1600 deal. This is even sweeter. 2 ram slots and 2 m.2 slots ftw!!

**update**
This thing is great! I am coming from a 10200 i5 laptop with 3060 and 1080p with 250 nits. MSI gf65 thin. I am blown away on how much brighter and clearer the screen is in the M16.

Here is a couple details on the SSD and RAM:

The preinstalled M.2 NVME is a Micron MTFDKBA1T0QFM that uses 176 layer QLC NAND up to 4500 MB/s read and 3600 MB/s write.

The preinstalled memory is one single stick of Micron DDR5 4800 16GB model MTC8C1084SC48BA1.

I'm going to pick up a 2TB WD SN850X and a 2 pack of Crucial DDR5 16GB ram at my local Micro Center.

What's the advantage of this versus the $999 Asus TUF at Best Buy from last week? Just the higher screen resolution on this one?

Brighter screen, more accurate colors, better built quality, and sleeker design(subjective).

How does the Zephyrus series compare to the Strix???
I have an old ROG G752VT that I'm checking out potential replacements. It's still going strong, but it is getting up there for every day and all day use. Not a gamer, the gamer laptops seem to have the best specs for graphics, photo editing, publications, etc.

Thanks.

I9 13th Gen vs i7 12th gen. QHD 240hz vs FHD 144hz, DDR5 4800mhz vs DDR 3200mhz, HDMI 2.0 vs HDMI 2.1, wifi 6e vs wifi 6

Also be mindful the best buy site has tons of errors of specifications on their computers. The Tuf says USB 3.1, but it's actually 3.2.

Also in the same boat on if this quantifies the $500 jump. Depends on how you are going to use the laptop, as a desktop replacement or actually as a laptop or how often as a laptop for the screen the to matter. The i7 in the Tuf does not do well in multicore according to reports. The CPU difference and DDR5 are big improvements for a laptop to last longer.
