A variant came to us with a new AMD Radeon RX 6850M XT. More interesting is the external ROG XG Mobile. But at the same time, energy consumption increases. MUX Switch allows you to switch the discrete video adapter directly, which reduces latency and increases performance (they promise a 9% increase). The bottom line is that usually in laptops (and tablets in this case) discrete graphics are connected not directly to the display, but through an integrated one. At the same time, the tablet is equipped with a MUX Switch multiplexer. You can play it quite comfortably if you do not twist the settings to the maximum. Not the most powerful video card, but very impressive, given the size. The tablet itself has an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop with a frequency of overclocking up to 1085 MHz, TGP 35 W (and boost up to 40 W) with 4 GB of GDDR6 video memory. Now let's move on to discrete video accelerators.

As for wireless interfaces, there is Bluetooth 5.2 and fast Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) (Dual band) 2x2. It is soldered on the board, it will not be possible to increase the volume. RAM - 16 GB LPDDR5-5200, operates in dual-channel mode. Claimed TDP is 45W (up to 115W for short term loads). Used as integrated graphics Intel Iris Xe with 96 compute units and up to 1.45 GHz. The frequency of productive cores is from 2.5 to 5 GHz and 1.8 - 3.8 GHz for energy efficient ones. Powerful cores support Hyper Threading, as a result, the processor can process up to 20 threads simultaneously. It is manufactured using a 10nm process technology, has 6 productive cores and 8 energy efficient ones. A configuration with a top Intel Core i9-12900H. This is the first generation of Intel processors that uses two types of cores: performance and energy efficiency, something similar we have long seen in mobile processors for smartphones. This can be compensated by ports on an external video card.Īll ASUS ROG Flow Z13 configurations ship with Intel 12th Gen Alder Lake-P processors.

Such an unusual design also has its less pleasant nuances: there was no place for a normal set of ports and there is only a pair of Type-C (Display Port and PD) and only one USB 2.0, which is not enough for a gaming model.

The tablet received a bright high-quality 13.4-inch screen with a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a very pleasant to use detachable keyboard with full keys, standard layout and backlight. At the same time, I was very pleased with the cooling system, which can easily cope with any load. ASUS ROG Flow Z13 (2022) received very productive hardware, which is enough to play without an external video card, and ROG XG Mobile makes the device comparable in power to top-end full-size gaming laptops. Now this is a tablet, and a laptop with a fastened complete keyboard, and a gaming PC, if you connect a large monitor, keyboard and mouse. But now the form factor offers even more use cases. The main idea remains the same as ROG Flow X13: power, portability and versatility. It turned out to be an extremely interesting and unique, but rather niche device. After last year's unusual gaming ultrabook-transformer ASUS ROG Flow X13, the Flow line was replenished with the ASUS ROG Flow Z13 (2022) gaming tablet. ASUS continues its bold experiments with form factors.
