Kudos for the elaborate "real life" review . I found you on reddit and I have to say we really appreciate a review that discusses real life use instead of just reviewing the technical aspects of the device in isolation of practical uses. No one ever talks about the limitations of the Flow X13 so people can see this and decide whether they're okay with these aspects or not.

!DISCLAIMER! The "chip" in the Magnesium body at the top is actually a microphone hole, meant for noise cancelation. Thanks to Substantial-North111 for pointing that out :))

Thankyou so much for the update. I just ordered 4060 version of this after ur previous detailed review. I'll recieve it 2 days. Excited *.*

thanks for a great review, the edit and music are so fun to watch lol

good job, touched on a lot of things I was curious about, i think i really like it.

I really enjoyed your review, even without hearing you speak at all, lol. I hope they use vapor chamber like in z13 for the next iteration.

thank you, great video

hey great vid, im choosing between either this or the x16. do u think the extra 3 inches in screen size and probably the extra performance is worth? idk how this would be used as a tabletish laptop at 16 inches and idk the battery life. i would consider the z13 but that one doesn't have 32 gigs of ram. overall tho nice review and straight to the point

The music makes me remember the dead rising mall music. Thanks or the video i am searchinf for option for upgrade my macbook pro 2012.

the 'chip in the metal' is one of the microphones for the noise cancelling , i got that one on my unit too :D

​ Hi, thanks for the review Obviously it's a superb device. Currently I have an aero 15 Oled and I want to replace it. The x13 seems much more transportable and compact. I'm afraid of the experience with the IPS screen of the x13. Have you had the opportunity to compare the x13 screen to an Oled screen?

I have been planning and preparing to buy this X13 for almost 3 years now and Im afraid to buy this 2023 version now that 2024 is coming very soon xD But I do think this is the best X13 version to date. I have been holding and waiting since the 2021 and 2022 versions but I am fixed on this x13 2023 now. I also had a year long debate with myself and my family and friends if I should go with the 16 inch and 13 inch but ultimately decided im going with the 13 incher bec of the tablet mode. I'll just connect the laptop to bigger screens in hotel room TVs etc... But yeah the main dilemma now is that I've spent so long saving for this laptop and Im quite ready for it now but im afraid a 2024 version will come out the moment I buy this xD I appreciate your video! You have no idea how much of a goldmine of information this is for me! My mission is almost complete! I will finally get my x13!!! Hopefully the perfect one! I appreciate all your detailed insights and this incredible review!

watching from my 2022 varient, still running like new!

Good review... One question that has been nagging my mind... Will the rtx 4050 varient be good too??? (coupled with ryzen 9 7490HS) I want to buy it but am not sure if it will be good enough or not...

@Crimson Tech: Is there an option to configure the backlight to turn on and off while using the keyboard? This is how it works on HP Notebooks and I am missing this function heavily on my current lenovo notebook. As I am planning on buying a new device this is a highly recommended feature for me... Would love if you can check this. Thank you

Bro, can u tell from your experience about the pen ? Is it good enough to take some notes especially for college. ?

Nice review. You are missing one of the most important part of this specific line of laptop, the XG Mobile GPU. I wish you could have a review of this device plus the external GPU. Have a nice day. :)

The only conern that I have with this is the IPS screen. I wish they used a LED or the new mini LED panels. In your opinion, can this be considered a deal breaker? If not I'm absolutely going to get it.

Sounds like a great laptop to carry around the house while working and get good battery life but can do some decent gaming if you ask it to.

I am thinking of getting this for my freshman year of college and then I would not have to carry my old desktop to college. Would this be a good replacement gaming rig for a rx5700xt and a ryzen 5 3600 desktop? I know it won't be perfect but relatively similar?

Hey there buddy, I'm kinda between this and Macbook Pro 14 M2 Pro. I'm photographer/videographer who loves gaming too. Do you think there is huge difference between screens?

How about the stylus and touchscreen? will be using predominantly for work..

4:00 bro why is your usb/xg port cover is gone ? and can you charge the laptop with that usb c port ? (the left side one next to the xg mobile port) I'm interested in this laptop but I see many reviewers charge it only with the right side usb port, it drives me nuts because that's where my mouse would beeeee!! can you confirm it wether or not you can charge it with the left usb ?

What do you think about the writing experience?? Is display latency noticeable?? I'm mostly gonna use it for coding and note taking :))

"the small chip in the metal" is actually the factory stuff which is the noise cancelling micro.

Would you recommend getting the older X13 Model with 6800hs and 3050 4GB? Is ghosting issue really a deal breaker at 1100USD?

Hey bro, what about the Lenovo Legion 5 Slim 14.5 OLED?, I'm deciding between this and the flow x13.

good review, i'd probably get the 4060 variant, because of its small size id feel like im leaving too much performance on the table if i get the 4070 version

needs better KEYBOARD backlight (too bright). An RGB keyboard upgrade would be ace (can use same KB as the G14)

the tent mode is crazy 🤣

Where can I find the dancing soldier in the background?

I am about to buy the flow x13 2022 model Can i get a suggestion to buy that or to choose another one ......

US BestBuy store has $1299 version that doesn't have dGPU -- worse screen - but think it should have similar battery life or maybe more since the screen doesn't have to drive 1440p (its a 19200x1200 screen) Was your battery life with the dGPU off?

Have you tried to undervolt the GPU ? On my z13 flow, I managed to gain ~7% of performance (from 43 to 49 fps in re4 while minus 3° (59° instead of 62°)

This thing is really expensive for it's pretty middle of the road specs. what made you choose this over other options like the Asus G14?

Do you feel x13 is a bit too small for gaming? Idk, i have never played pc games on a 13 inch display

do you have any recommendation for a 1000€/$ laptop? i cant find a proper review

nice

would you say it is built like a macbook?

Hi there, if i was able to get it for $1200 AUD would it be worth?

Does this have access to steam

u have to make one more video about this laptop 😭 😭

I went for the g14 Cause guess what It went out of stock just when i was about to order it

Continuenlikr this :D

Pretty sure urs rtx 4070 is not 100w variant. Its most likely around 60w

Can we upgrade RAM to 32Gb in 4050 or 4060 RTX série by changing 2x8Gb RAM to 2x16Gb ?

Tweakers!

Love that battery .PNG

getting this for med school w gaming on the side 🫡🫡

I got more focused on png's 🥲😆
