Next-gen gaminglaptops are arriving in a few weeks, but you shouldn't wait on them. Here's why and the laptops you should buy instead.
In a few short weeks, we should have the first batch of next-gen gaming laptops rolling out. Nvidia promised we’ll see machines that were announced at CES in February, and we’ve already gotten a good taste of the notebooks that will define the list of the best gaming laptops for the next year. But you shouldn’t wait to buy one.
Related RTX 3050 laptops started around $800. That’s already cheaper, but there’s an important note for the MSI Cyborg. It comes with a last-gen Intel processor, presumably to keep the price low. It’s hard to say with so few prices to go on, but that could be a trend we see with RTX 40-series gaming laptops.
Although we could see gaming laptops around the same price as the previous generation, I’m not holding my breath. Nvidia’s latest desktop GPUs have seen massive price increases, and there’s no reason to believe the mobile range won’t follow suit. Even if we do, last year’s models are going for bargain bin prices right now, and you can buy a much more powerful laptop for the same price as a new RTX 40-series machine.
It’s been marked down anywhere from $400 to $600 for the last several months . For that price, you’re getting a Radeon RX 6700S and AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS, along with a 1600p 120Hz screen. A preliminary leak of the upcoming RTX 4050 mobile shows it’s around 15% faster than last-gen’s RTX 3050. The RX 6700S inside the 2022 Zephyrus G14 is around 25% to 30% faster than that card.
