The 2023 refreshes for the ASUS ROG Flow X13 and Z13 have arrived in the Philippines. Both are 13-inch ultraportable gaming devices that now have redesigned chassis, upgraded internals, and ASUS’ own Nebula Displays.
For 2023, the ASUS ROG Flow X13 is getting an AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS, up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050, 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM, and up to 1TB of PCIE 4.0 NVMe SSD. Its battery was increased to 75Whr and supports 130W USB-C charging.
The display is faster at 165Hz while resolution is upped to 2560 x 1600. There is also a Corning Gorilla Glass DXC coating to increase surface hardness by 40% to protect the screen.
Its chassis has been redesigned with a new wave pattern design on the aluminum lid. The waves on the lid now get progressively thicker instead of having a uniform thickness to get a “gravity wave” effect while providing additional texture for easier carrying.
