Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 Alan Walker Special Edition

"Gaming meets music in Asus’s latest portable PC"

- By Jeremy Laird

Give it up for the new Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 Alan Walker Special Edition. It’s a new version of the second iteration of what was already a great laptop. The original Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 was something of a genre buster when it arrived last year with its compact 14-inch proportions, awesome AMD CPU, and great gaming performance.

This second-generation Special Edition model carries over that basic proposition but adds an unusual twist, namely collaboration with the DJ and musician Alan Walker. As we write, Walker currently has the 19th most popular video on Youtube with no fewer than 3.2 billion views, not to mention over 10 billion channel views. Not bad.

Anyway, Walker has collaborated with Asus to produce a version of the G14 that fuses music with gaming. The basic design of the G14 is carried over, complete with the funky Anime Matrix programmable LED feature on the rear. But various tweaks, including a change to metallic grey, fabric inserts, and new keyboard colors give a distinct look.
