That said, reducing screen brightness and having power settings on Balanced I get about 4 hours of YT video. I also have the Intel GPU set as the default. Whether it's for you depends how often you think you will be away from power. You can also get a power bank (relatively inexpensive) that you can carry with you and will fully recharge the Asus. This [a.co] is the one I have and it is currently $28.99 after clicking all the discounts! Crazy low for a 130W 25000mAh power bank with LCD. Just bought another!

Like Hat-Trick, I upgraded to 40GB of RAM. I also added a 1TB second SSD. Went with 1TB (as opposed to 2TB) since I use several other (external) drives for my larger downloads. Also most 2TB drives have skyrocketed since Dec (when I bought two 2TB 980 Pro drives on sale for $98 each).
Great laptop! I listed all the Pros in the old thread.
The main downside (other than "only" having an RTX 3050 - I do not game and already have a powerful 1 year old desktop, so not an issue for me), is that it is a fingerprint magnet (like most black laptops).
To round out the accessories I bought an Anker 737 24K Powercore powerbank on sale for $90 and an Anker 736 Nano sized 100W charger for ~$45.
I already had a 16" QHD portable USB-C monitor for multi tasking when working away from home.
