Disappear Into the Action
Near-rimless at a 94% screen-to-body ratio, the FHD+ display is immersive and deep. High-FPS gameplay is richer with a balance of high-resolution detail, a 165Hz refresh rate, and a 3ms response time. See full-spectrum colour accuracy thanks to Pantone® validation and 100% SRGB, ideal for gamers who also create.

Outperform Everyone
Speed, power, and portability achieve a perfect balance in the Zephyrus M16. Its ultra-slim frame houses a powerful Intel® Core™ i7 CPU with NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3050 Ti graphics. With 16GB of DDR5 RAM and 512 GB of ultrafast PCIe® Gen 4 storage, everyday work and multitasking faster. Lightning-fast load times for demanding apps makes gaming and content creation speedier than ever.
16” display on a 15” chassis
A streamlined design fits a 16” display on a 15” ultraslim chassis. Lighter and smaller than predecessors by up to 5%, the Zephyrus M16 blends full-sized convenience and portability.
180° ErgoLift
Open up more viewing angles with the 180° ErgoLift hinge. Typical laptops have a limited range of motion, but the Zephyrus M16 lets you flip the screen all the way back, so it’s easy to share with a group or get the perfect angle for yourself.
Soft-Touch Coating
Soft-touch paint covers the palm rest, minimizing smudges and fingerprints with a thin coating that helps sustain the sleek styling and subtle sparkle through to the end of the day.
Prismatic Shine
The dot matrix design on the lid is made with a precision CNC milling process that creates 8279 tightly spaced perforations. Prismatic film gleams beneath, adding a subtle shimmering effect against the stark “Off-Black” chassis.
Sink Into Sublime Sound
Streaming, recording, and gaming are streamlined with the Zephyrus M16’s multi-faceted audio system. Boasting Dolby Atmos® technology, twin tweeters and dual force-canceling woofers, acoustics are beautifully balanced, with Hi-Res certification that supports media at the highest fidelity. A customizable 3D Mic array captures audio in a variety of scenarios, while Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation clarifies sound from your feed and incoming feeds as well.
Dual Force-Canceling Woofers
Woofers produce low frequencies that define bass and help create a richer, more dynamic soundscape for your audio. Sounds at such low frequencies typically produce stronger, more noticeable vibrations. In order to minimize resonance in the smaller chassis, the Zephyrus M16 deploys woofers in pairs that are slightly offset to cancel each others’ vibrations.
3D Mic Array
Three modes for the integrated microphone array give you greater control over your input. Cardioid mode captures sound from right in front of the laptop, while minimizing input from the back, making it ideal for streaming and gaming. Stereo mode uses right and left channels to record a wider soundscape for live music or other immersive experiences. Omnidirectional mode picks up sound from all directions equally for clearer group conference calls.
Lighter. Slimmer. More Portable
Game, stream, and code anywhere. Ultrafast Thunderbolt™ 4 lets you connect conveniently on the fly to the latest devices, like powerful external GPUs or docking stations. Type-C charging lets you top off your charge from portable power packs, so you can stop scrambling for a socket when your battery gets low. Unplug and unwind with up to 10 hours of battery life.

A Stroke of Genius
Maintain a low profile with a new Stealth Type keyboard that keep keystrokes under 30dB. Input complex commands at speed with N-key rollover that ensures every press is registered, and Overstroke technology that lowers each key’s actuation point for effortless input. Navigation is also smoother and easier with a touchpad 20% larger and more accurate to put precision navigation at your fingertips.
Additional Features
MUX Switch
Modern gaming laptops use powerful, dedicated graphics chips for high performance—but most route those frames through the CPU's integrated graphics before reaching the display. This offers better battery life, but prevents your GPU from giving its absolute best performance. So we're bringing a MUX switch to all 2022 ROG laptops. For competitive games, you can switch to a direct GPU mode that reduces latency and boosts performance by an average of 9%.
Intelligent Cooling Improves Your Experience
Liquid Metal thermal compound keeps your CPU cool, while redesigned Arc Flow Fans™ spin 84 blades to generate impressive airflow and minimal noise. ROG Armoury Crate software switches seamlessly between operating modes to optimize performance and acoustics for the task at hand.
Comprehensive Connectivity
A variety of I/O ports keep you connected and let you stay productive no matter where you are. The ultra-versatile Thunderbolt 4 port with DisplayPort™ 1.4 and Power Delivery 3.0 is joined by two USB 3.2 Type-A ports for a gaming mouse, gamepad, and other accessories. A MicroSD slot makes it easy for creators to shoot, edit, and process massive images and videos anywhere.
Unified System Tuning and Personalization
ROG Armoury Crate unifies system and lighting controls to put essential settings at your fingertips in a single utility. You can easily define and customize Scenario Profiles that automatically make adjustments when you launch your favorite titles.
