OLED is Here
Finally, laptop gamers can enjoy the ultra-fast response times and incredible contrast ratios that are only possible with OLED technology. This panel boasts a 2.5K resolution, giving it incredible pixel density on a 16-inch screen, with a 240Hz refresh rate and G-SYNC that makes all of your games look silky smooth. With 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space, color accuracy with a ΔE of less than 1, and VESA HDR True Black 500 certification, prepare to be immersed in HDR content so lifelike that the screen melts away.
Fast
Leading OLED panels with NVIDIA® G-SYNC support
OLED displays have an ultrafast 0.2ms response time, which ensures smoother fast-paced action scenes, low-latency gameplay, and subtle details like blur-free text scrolling. We’re also proud to support NVIDIA® G-SYNC, a critical refresh rate adjustment technology for gaming laptops that was unavailable on OLEDequipped machines until the launch of the 2024 Zephyrus G16.

Bright
1,000,000:1 Ultra-High Contrast Ratio
OLED displays have millions of light-emitting diodes (LED), and unlike traditional display technologies, they can turn each pixel on and off individually. Because of this, OLED panels can achieve pixel-perfect black levels, resulting in extreme contrast ratios like 1,000,000:1. This true black allows for images that appear bright and punchy without feeling washed out, ensuring you never miss an enemy hiding in the shadows. HDR has never looked this good.

Thermal
Cool, Calm, Collected
ROG Intelligent Cooling is a suite of components that work together in harmony to keep our high-performance laptops cool and quiet. The Zephyrus G16’s Vapor Chamber, Tri Fan Technology, 2nd Generation Arc Flow Fans™, liquid metal thermal compound, and a redesigned high-efficiency exhaust vent operate in perfect harmony to offer the perfect balance of thermals and acoustics. Taken together, these systems keep the machine operating at its peak while staying quieter than ever.
Control
Effortless control
The trackpad and keyboard are critical for controlling your laptop, so we spared no expense with the design of the Zephyrus G16. It boasts an extra large trackpad to maximize ease of scrolling. We’ve also increased the keycap size by 12% for smoother typing as well, thanks to extra rigidity from the CNC machining. An extra long 1.7mm travel distance gives the keyboard switches a premium typing feel, and with a lifetime of 20 million presses, it’s a perfect long-term partner.

A Slice of Brilliance
The Zephyrus G16 is ready to light up your world with the Slash Lighting array. A bold streak across the lid of the machine, Slash Lighting is an evolution of the elegance and individuality that make Zephyrus so unique. It retains the customization of its predecessor, with a design inspired by sci-fi and contemporary art.
Precision Craftsmanship
Built from aluminum alloy, the chassis of the Zephyrus G16 is painstakingly CNC-machined to minimize excess volume while maintaining rigidity. Using precision tools just 0.7mm in diameter, channels for the keyboard, touchpad and speakers are milled to ultra-tight tolerances for a premium and robust chassis with components that stretch edge to edge. After an eight-step process, the sandblasted, polished and anodized G16 chassis stands ready to support its flagship hardware.
