Community Reviews

The G14 stands out as a compact OLED gaming laptop that delivers near top tier RTX 5080 performance in a small chassis, with real world gains over the 5070 Ti often landing in the 5 percent to 10 percent range. The higher end GPU can run more efficiently at the same performance target, and the shared 110 watt cooling setup means the 5080 is not inherently hotter than lower trims. The big caution is the open box purchase, since the warranty is only 90 days and repair support can be difficult. That makes the price attractive, but the risk is worth weighing carefully.

  • Players who care more about portable gaming than desktop-level gains, because the 5080 only delivers a small FPS uplift over the 5070 Ti in real games.

  • Gamers who want a compact 14-inch machine, because the higher-end GPU can run cooler at a given performance target in balanced or quiet modes.

  • Battery-conscious gamers who mostly play plugged in, because performance mode lasts about an hour and the discrete GPU offers only a small runtime advantage.

  • Buyers who need long warranty coverage on an open-box laptop, because ASUS open-box units carry only a 90-day warranty.

  • Gamers expecting a big jump from the top GPU tier, because the 5080 can perform only slightly ahead of the 5070 Ti in this chassis.

My G14/5070ti gets 16500 timespy graphics while on 150w SlimQ adapter, while I only managed 17900 from G16/5080 with 240w brick. Very little gain for extra cost beyond 5070ti for me. FWIW 150w SlimQ actually pulled up to 182w in those runs.

I tested out a G16 with intel and a 5080 against a G14 with AMD and a 5070ti. The delta in fps in games was 5%-10%, so I returned the G16 and kept the G14.

I just got the SlimQ 150w adapter for my G14/5070ti today but can't really how much wattage it's pulling. What settings do you use (in Ghelper, I assume)?

I did not. My bank/credit card has a 90 day dispute window, which had already passed.

I took it as an expensive lesson learned and motivation to spread awareness to others so they don't end up in the same boat.
Sorry to hear that

Where do I get the details on this? Is Lenovo the same?
You take the laptop to BB if you have issue. They cover 1 years from purchase.

your 5-10% difference corresponds with mine, which is 8%
My slimQ is plugged into EcoFlow River Pro, so I see the wattage in real time.
I run timespy with 10200 CPU and 16500 GPU giving 35w and 95+20W power budgets in G-Helper, which pushes SlimQ up to 182w (max before is gives up)
