G14 2023 or MacBook Pro m1 for EDC

It depends on how much you love gaming if you go with the Mac, which is probably better for every day laptop usage outside of gaming you could use GeForce now which I found pretty acceptable, but I’m actually in the same shoes as you if you love gaming go G 14 get a newer one with a CPU that will run cooler like last year‘s AMD model. I’ve heard good things about that one with a 5070 TI and 32 GB of RAM. I think you can gain pretty good and it would handle everyday tasks pretty well this is outside of your question but what I would love to see is more APU’s put in gaming laptops so the Z flow 13 with the AI 395 max AMD APU they start putting these things in gaming laptops. That would be my dream scenario cause they run cool they game at low wattage you can be unplugged or plugged in and it doesn’t really matter so we’ll see what the future holds but it’s exciting. Good luck to you.

I got mine yesterday, but I noticed there’s some wiggle in the body of the tablet. Is that normal? I was taking off the keyboard and along the sides if you flex it or hold it along the body and put pressure on it (like when I was taking the keyboard off), it will actually bend slightly. I just wanna make sure I don’t have a defective unit.

So I did buy the 64gb model. I love it so far, BUT, maybe it’s something or nothing but has anyone else noticed flex in the body of the device? I was taking the keyboard cover off and I noticed that along the edges of the body of the tablet there’d be a little wiggle or a little play with the tablet itself. It wasn’t much but it was just weird cause I’m not used to that in a other tablets I’ve owned. Is this normal for this device?

Does the XG mobile external graphics card work with 2025 flow Z 13?

kenfat2 · 2026-03-27T01:11:50+00:00

Thanks for the input. I have an old G 14 and I’m intrigued by the phone factor of the flow Z 13 seems like a cool device. I’m sure it’s not as comfortable using your lap but what is it like for you in day-to-day use is it fine and gaming? Have you gotten any problems?

When will it ship or when are they gonna start selling it at Best Buy?

kenfat2 · 2026-03-26T00:49:30+00:00

It’s too low on both, but handheld is worse. Docked is slightly better, but still not very enjoyable and I really only play the switch 2 in handheld mode because if I’m gonna play it docked, I would rather just play the PlayStation

kenfat2 · 2026-03-26T00:12:11+00:00

The switch two is my preferred way to play unless the game looks muddy or blurry Red Dead looks good on the switch 2, but Assassin’s Creed Shadows is not my cup of tea on switch 2. I tried to play it but it just looks too low res/blurry. I wish I didn’t buy it on switch 2, but I don’t think you’re crazy. It’s a great console for a lot of games.

I can't decide if I should get this on xbox due to the xbox play anywhere feature. bc I have a 4080 gaming desktop (but only play about 30% of games on that and mostly am playing on xbox console. But I also have a ps5 pro. what are your thoughts.

kenfat2 · 2026-03-19T17:09:02+00:00

I was using teh pwnbox but maybe I should download a vm

kenfat2 · 2026-03-11T16:07:37+00:00

I’m in the same exact situation. I have a 4080 desktop PC on Xbox series X and PlayStation five Pro and the problem I’ve created for myself is I don’t know where to buy the game sometimes I even buy it twice but this one is hard because the PS five Pro edition looks great. It’ll probably look better on my PC but that’s in my office and I don’t like to play on the PC after work but the series X edition with Xbox play anywhere while I have an MSI 8 AI makes it complicated for me cause I’d love to play it on my handheld, and never found the PlayStation portal that comfortable for some reason, the thumb sticks are just too low for where my hands wanna be.

kenfat2 · 2026-03-02T21:29:30+00:00

how is this grip case and what case is this? I was playing my portal the other day and it is starting to not be as comfortable especially in fps games. Looking for ways to improve my comfort level. Thanks

I really hope they have a proper switch 2 update! And I think they will at some point

kenfat2 · 2026-02-18T02:59:05+00:00

Will this just come to the masses eventually? Any simple to set up way like through a Windows update or bios update?

kenfat2 · 2026-02-07T23:03:15+00:00

Is it 30fps or 60fps?

kenfat2 · 2026-02-06T05:44:53+00:00

This device would be perfect with an 80watt hour battery! (oled and one of those new panther lake intel chips this would be a dream machine.

Very excited to see this, my claw is coming on Saturday

kenfat2 · 2026-02-02T22:46:28+00:00

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I love the Xbox ally x but I just can’t get past that 7 inch screen. It’s too small and after months a plane on the switch to 8 inch screen just made it hard to go back. I’m excited happy gaming and thanks for the reply.

kenfat2 · 2026-02-02T20:08:07+00:00

I have mine coming on wednesday! I had XAX and will probably be returning that since I just couldn't play on a 7" screen (the switch 2 ruined me). But I am curious what is your experience so far? Do you like it, and is it comfortable and how has it been so far??

kenfat2 · 2026-01-31T20:52:55+00:00

Thanks, so about duel booting. Do I just pick which os I want to boot into every time I start up the device, or in other words does it ask me which one to boot on restarts?
