Extremely portable. Glorious display. Strong all-round performance. Great for first-person shooter games.are rarely shy about introducing new, and potentially innovative, features. These range from ever-developing display tech to second screens and new external graphics card unit solutions. Asus’ gaming sub-brand ROG has delved into all of these categories, but the latter is the focus here.
The ROG XG Mobile eGPU first cropped up with the Asus ROG Flow X13—a super-slim clamshell laptop with the option of having gaming power boosted by the eGPU unit. ROG's new kit takes this performance bump idea further, with the Flow Z13 being a rare fully fledged 2-in-1 gaming tablet. Asus has already had a stab at creating a good Microsoft Surface Pro-like device with the VivoBook 13 Slate OLED, a machine that looks very similar to this one. However, it was ultimately too underpowered and overpriced to take on Microsoft’s 2-in-1 formula. The Z13 doesn’t make the same mistakes. As a gaming device, the level of portability gained by being a tablet enhances this unique proposition.The tablet and keyboard combo weighs in at 2.
But while the power offered by the RTX 3050 Ti, alongside the Intel Core i9-12900H chip, is far from titanic, it excels if you’re a fan of games with a greater focus on frame rate than graphical finesse. For titles in the latter category, like, you’ll get performance of 50 to 80 fps with ‘Low’ settings on this machine’s 120-Hz 1080p display.
The Flow Z13 is also available in varieties that sport lower-powered graphics and processors, as well as an option for a higher0resolution UHD+ display, but with a lower 60-Hz refresh rate. Those results aren’t exactly great, but for such a thin device and the option of lowering to 720p for some extra frames, they aren’t all bad either.
