The ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 (2026) is a 16-inch gaming laptop announced in 2026. Every value below is from ASUS’s specification document, re-typed into our own table. A chassis is sold in many configurations, so screen, memory and graphics are listed as the options the maker offers.
Notes from the document: Graphics power is the figure ASUS gives for Manual mode with Dynamic Boost (RTX 5070 Ti: 125 W in Turbo mode; RTX 5080: 135 W in Turbo mode). Memory is 16, 32 or 64 GB on the board with no slot. The display, HDMI and card-reader lines are from ASUS’s global spec page for the same model (rog.asus.com/laptops/rog-zephyrus/rog-zephyrus-g16-2026/spec/, read 2026-11-14), which lists the ports in full: HDMI 2.1 FRL, a UHS-II SD reader, no RJ45; the US page omits those lines. The keyboard line names no keypad.

Size: will it fit your bag?
Closed, it measures 13.94 × 9.69 in (35.4 × 24.6 cm) and is 0.59–0.7 in thick. A sleeve or laptop compartment needs inner dimensions at least that large; bag makers size compartments by screen class, and chassis in one class differ, so check the numbers, not the label. We list 12 laptops in the 16-inch class: 13.88–14.35 in wide, 9.35–10.86 in deep and 3.58–5.84 lb. By starting weight the ROG Zephyrus G16 (2026) is the 7th lightest of 12. Full table: 16-inch laptop dimensions.
Ports and charging
Ports: 2 × USB-C, with Thunderbolt 4, 2 × USB-A, HDMI 2.1, an SD card reader. Charging: Own plug, 250 W. It has no built-in Ethernet port.
Graphics power
Graphics options: RTX 5070 Ti (140 W); RTX 5080 (160 W). The wattage is the maximum graphics power (TGP) the maker states for this chassis; the same GPU runs at different power in different laptops, which changes its speed. We haven’t measured frame rates; see an independent lab such as Notebookcheck for those.
Configurations vary by seller: check the listing for the exact processor, memory, storage and screen. We haven’t tested this laptop.
