Pros and Cons

Asus Zenbook 15 OLED

Strengths

The laptop has plenty of performance from that Ryzen 7 processor allowing you to edit 1080p videos play AAA games.
It has an absolutely gorgeous OLED display with brightness, contrast, and beautiful colors.
Battery life does not disappoint and you can fast charge from zero to sixty percent in just 49 minutes via the included type c 65 watt power supply.
The keyboard and touchpad are great quality with the trademark Asus Ergosense keyboard and the Ergo sense touchpad.

Weaknesses

Fan noise is very loud especially when you switch to the high performance mode
There is no privacy cover on the webcam which could be a concern for some users.
The speaker volume was slightly underwhelming especially when compared to laptops with quad speakers.
The fan noise at maximum performance mode can be an issue for some users, jumping up to 55 decibels.

Asus ROG Zephyrus S17 GX703

Strengths

The form factor is easily my favorite in the 17-inch segment right now.
The screen options and overall package are very promising.
The thermal design with two fans and a multitude of heat pipes is smartly designed to channel fresh air into the radiators and out to the back.
The motherboard design and complexly engineered hinges that also push up the keyboard deck showcase Asus' engineering expertise.
The system's ability to seamlessly switch the video throughput and display signal between the iGPU and dGPU without requiring a restart is a significant advantage.
The laptop's potential to match thicker and less portable designs in terms of performance and thermals while being more portable is a major plus.

Weaknesses

The lack of an AMD model on this Zephyrus S17 may be a disappointment for some users.
The IO positioning might raise some eyebrows, especially with the mechanical keyboard placement.
There is no mention of whether the system's battery life and thermals will live up to expectations during gaming sessions or demanding loads.
It's unclear if the system will meet its performance promises in the retail model, as this was a preview unit.
The IO positioning might be less than ideal for some users who prefer more convenient placement of ports.
There is no mention of whether a QHD screen with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 GPU would be available and if it would offer better value compared to the 3080 4K model.
