So I've been looking for reviews for Asus laptops and I chanced upon yours. Honestly, most of your complaints about this laptop are only your aesthetic preferences and certainly not anything "wrong" with the laptop.

1. You talked about the red colored Esc button that makes you think it's the power button. Now if you have been using laptops AT ALL, you should know that no laptop (not from any brand) has the power button on the upper left corner. So I don't know why you would even think of the possibility that the power button is there. This would definitely not be a problem for most others. In terms of why the Esc is red and not the Delete button, it's just your own preference. Both Esc and Delete mean "going back" that the color red is usually thought to suggest. It doesn't bother anyone which one they color as red.

2. In terms of why they put what you call the "crime scene" lines on the Enter button, it's not a crime scene. It is their brand logo. I don't know why anyone would go through an ethical dilemma before they press the Enter button, but honestly, most proficient laptop users (like you who edit videos) do not look at the keyboard when they type. They type based on muscle memory. You certainly do not need to look at the artwork on the keyboard to know where the Enter button is (and have a moral struggle).

3. You asked why the camera and mic buttons have LED indicators and the mute button doesn't. Well, that is because you do not need any LED indicators to know whether or not you have your sound off! If you hear no sound when there should be sound, that means you have the mute on. To add an LED for what is aurally apparent is silly. The camera and mic, on the other hand, should have an LED because whether you have them on or off is something that is not for your benefit - they are for the benefit for whoever you talk to! You cannot otherwise know whether you have your camera or mic on unless they add an LED to tell you, unless you wait for the other person to tell you (which is something you want to avoid). The engineers applied these designs perfectly logically.

4. You complained that the laptop is slow. I do not know whether you had the performance mode on or whether you have your graphics card on (based on the fact that you do not even know there is customization on the virtual dial, I guess you didn't). If you are a pro, you should know that how fast you edit/render videos does not depend on your CPU power, but on your GPU power. And you should also know that no one can expect low fan speed and great performance at the same time. They have to come together, and it's not news. Also, once again, yes, the dial is CUSTOMIZABLE. They can have more features than adjusting your volume and brightness.

5. You asked why they put the power charge LED on the side instead of above the keyboard. Well, that is because most people charge their laptop when it's closed! No one leaves their laptops in charge mode with the screen wide open - you would only be collecting dust in the keyboard. It's always better to see the LED indicators from an angle than not see it at all, right?

The only viable comment you have for this laptop is that they could've added more USB-C. One is indeed on the scarce side for content creators. That being said, no windows laptops, not even those for content creation, have more than 3 USB-C. They mostly have 2. To claim to have "at least" 3 is insane, if you know the laptop industry at all. Overall, I find your review hugely misleading. Just because you would've loved another design doesn't mean the laptop is wrong, not to mention that some of your reasons are not reasonable at all. Most importantly, you do not seem to have explored your laptop enough before giving your complaints (the dial is customizable). Please be more responsible.

All valid complaints. But my question is why did you buy this laptop without researching these things properly in the first place?

I can't believe you are not bothered by the minuscule up and down arrow while left and right are normally sized

This might be the first ever laptop you got. I see no point the major issue except the loud fan noise which is every laptop problem. Go for I7 12th and 3060 if you want better performance.

Love your input. My only concern is the fan noise. Gonna have to think twice about buying one now.

Not sure if it's been mentioned or if you were just joking around but the graphic on the Enter key looks like it's supposed to be one of those film clapper boards.

Mine has a problem with the keyboard backlight. If I stop using the keyboard for a while it goes off and only comes back on if I press the F7 key. Is yours the same? I got the intel version. Other laptops backlight comes on by pressing any key or using the mouse.

Will you test the new 2023 version. It has 64GB RAM support, more efficient 4nm 4060 GPU (hopefully not so noisy), better cooling, full size 300 MB/s SD card reader. It seems to compete with Legion Slim 7i gen 8.

Agree with most of what you say here. Struggle to justify many of these silly designs. For e.g. I would rather have the power button red than the Esc button especially when its built into the keyboard. I have the Vivobook S 14X Oled and my biggest complaint is thermal management. Not only is the fan too loud but it comes on constantly even when the CPU load is less than 10%. Makes me miss my T440s with the i5 4210U. Quietest and coolest laptop I have used so far but sadly its not fully compatible with Win 11 which why I upgraded. I would also prefer that the charging and USBC ports be placed on the left hand side. Battery life on the Vivobook is also below average. But I love the OLED display and also the speed of the processor. Asus also includes some very useful settings on their My Asus app. Hopefully they'll address those issues in the next generation.

I am so glad I saw this video before purchasing this laptop. I like most people don't have the money to waste. So thank you for this video because that fan would have drove me crazy.

How many programs do you have running in the background where the video editing was that bad? I use a 4 or 5 year old HP pavillion 15 eg something for like 700 bucks, and can mix and add video some pretty plugin heavy tracks without any lagging, and have next to nothing latency....just have a hard time thinking its going to be that bad unless you have an super heavy programs going on outside of that..
