ASUS ROG Flow Z13
GZ302, 2025
A 1.2 kg detachable 2-in-1 with Strix Halo Ryzen AI Max+ 395 and Radeon 8060S that lands close to an RTX 4070 Laptop, no NVIDIA hybrid stack to fight on Linux, but you need a 6.13+ kernel for the iGPU and power, audio needs a quirk, and the 70Wh battery only gets about 5 hours under light load.
