There’s no denying the essential excellence of the Asus ROG Strix Scar 16. It’s stunningly fast when it comes to both games and productivity, the display is superb, as is the sound system, and it comes loaded with all the extras and refinements you could ask for from a top-tier gaming laptop. But as with the Zephyrus M16 and indeed many of the 13th Gen Intel/RTX 40-series machines currently being launched, it’s extraordinarily expensive. Is the range-topping 2023 Strix Scar 16 a better laptop than the equivalent 2022 Strix Scar 15? Yes. Is it £1,000 better? That’s a tougher question to answer but, ultimately, the answer has to be no.

After testing the Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 extensively, 'm thoroughly impressed with its performance and features. The powerful hardware comprising Intel's top-of-the-line i9 processor and Nvidia's flagship RTX 4090 GPU deliver unmatched frame rates even in the most demanding games. The laptop also handles intensive tasks like 4K video editing without breaking a sweat thanks to the excellent cooling system that keeps temperatures in check. Battery life is surprisingly good for a gaming laptop, lasting over 5 hours for productivity work. The 16-inch QHD Mini LED display also looks stunning with its high refresh rate, brightness and contrast. Gaming and watching movies on it is an absolute delight. There are a few small downsides like the average webcam and lack of SD card reader. But overall, the Scar 16 hits the sweet spot of power, display quality, performance, and portability. Overall, if you want a feature-packed high-end gaming laptop in a 16-inch form factor, the Scar 16 is easy to recommend.

The Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 (2023) is an incredibly powerful yet well-rounded gaming laptop with best-in-class specs and one of the top screens in the business. We will doubtless see faster combinations of the Core i9 and the RTX 4090, but it’s questionable whether the extra speed will make all that much difference to your gaming, while it will make a noticeable difference to your bank account. As it is, the Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 (2023) has all the power you need for the games of today and tomorrow, and a superb platform to show them off with.

When it comes down to it, this is a gaming laptop that offers top-tier performance at a top-tier price. Aside from raw muscle, it is the battery life, audio quality and ultra-bright display that are the true standouts of this machine. It's just a shame that the design choices will not be everyone's cup of tea and it can get louder than is desired given the fans. But there is still a lot to love here that wouldn't put me off recommending the ROG Scar Strix 16 as your next powerhouse gaming laptop.

It's clear that the Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 delivers pretty much everything we love about the 18-inch model but in a scaled-down package. Unfortunately, while that does mean it can keep up with the pack leaders in most respects, it lags at the back of that pack. This Strix produces better performance than any Intel 12th Gen/Nvidia RTX 30 Series gaming machine we tested, but it cannot quite match the absolute most powerful 2023 gaming laptops on the market. Whether that's bad news is entirely up to you, since the Scar 16's capable (if not category-leading) performance also comes in at a slightly more reasonable price than the performance leaders, and still gives you plenty of power to enjoy the latest games. As a result, the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 8 remains our favorite 16-inch gaming laptop, thanks to better performance and price for similar hardware, but it's a close race. If you prefer the style of the Scar 16's semi-transparent chassis and longer battery life, the gaming potential is close enough that you certainly won't regret buying it.

Convinced by my big claim up top? You should be. The Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 is not just a great gaming laptop, it offers impressive value across the crop of new RTX 40-series systems. The combo breaker of impressive graphical and compute performance makes this a serious speed demon, no matter what you throw at it. And when looking at those comparisons to the far more expensive RTX 4090 laptops like the Strix Scar 18, you’re getting more for your money (even if that price is a little steep). Pair that with a mouthwatering mini LED display, stellar keyboard, and a ton of I/O, and this is a super solid all-rounder. Regardless of my small issues, if you want to jump into the RTX 40 series family, stop and think before you spend too much, and consider the Strix Scar 16.

There will obviously be more RTX 4000 series laptops paired with the 13th-gen Intel processors. All of them will undoubtedly be quite good in the performance department and will, more than likely, cost a pretty penny. However, ASUS has a history of making remarkably high-octane laptops that do nothing to disturb a fluid gaming experience. The ROG Strix Scar 16 has all the ingredients for the highest quality in GPU and processor-intensive tasks. It also has a remarkable display to back it up and a string of software and hardware tricks to maintain its gamer aesthetic. Apart from a missed SD card slot and rather average speakers, the laptop doesn’t appear to miss a beat at all. I guess what I’m saying is that 2023 will reveal many more capable machines but I doubt any will quite match up to the overall package that is the ASUS ROG Strix Scar 16. Ultimately though, for those seeking a top-of-the-line gaming laptop this year, the ROG Strix Scar 16 is certainly a strong contender that shouldn’t be overlooked.

The transition to the new format was quite successful, so ROG Strix SCAR 16 did not disappoint in any way. In addition, now it can pleasantly surprise with a very bright display with Mini LED backlight and support for spectacular HDR. Increased performance compared to the previous generation is also there, although it will not be strongly felt in all games. Well, other strengths of this particular line were not lost. Among the biggest issues is, subjectively, the inconvenient location of the USB-A ports (well, there could be more of them), as well as the lack of face or fingerprint scanners in an expensive laptop. And yes, the high cost (147,999 hryvnias/$4,000) is unlikely to make it a bestseller. But those people who can afford such a purchase and are currently looking for a new laptop should definitely take a look at the SCAR 16.

The Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 is a competitive powerful laptop in its class, and stands out from the crowd in this i9+ RTX 4080 variant thanks to its performance and excellent cooling, its pricing, and the beautiful mini LED display. Just make sure you're OK with its peculiar design particularities, though. (this review is still a work in progress and will be finalized in the next few weeks)
