Epic performance and stunning visuals are prerequisites when you’re spending over six grand for a gaming laptop.

14" gaming laptop recommendations that aren't ROG G14? (lemmy.world)

I purchased a 2022 ROG Zephyrus G14 around Christmas 2023. It had some issues with the screen being blank on boot but rebooting it once or twice did the trick. I should have known that was a bad sign.

After less than 1.5 years, it got stuck in a boot loop after trying to update the graphics driver. After unsuccessfully trying to restore it to factory settings, I took it to my local Microcenter for diagnosis. They're listed by Asus as the only certified repair shop in my area.

It seems the motherboard has died and would cost more than what I paid for it to replace. The tech also said this is a common issue with this model. A quick search online shows I'm not the only one with this problem.

TLDR: A bad experience with the 2022 G14 makes me want to avoid ROG and Asus for a while. Any recommendations for a similarly sized gaming laptop? I like the Legion 5 Slim 14. 5" laptop but can't find it anywhere outside ebay and with this experience, I'd prefer something with a warranty.
