Question Just trying to get a 2nd Opinion

Hi guys,

Been thinking of switching from my Lenovo Thinkbook 14 Gen3 ACL (Ryzen 7-5800u / 16GB / 60Whr / 100%srGB-60Hz) to another 14" machine and I am eyeing the Asus ROG G14 (2021 model, because it is at around USD1300-1400 now, where I live) Ryzen 7-5800HS / RTX3060 / 16GB / FHD-144Hz

First up, no webcam but I can live with it. Second is only one (1) storage drive for G14, while my Lenovo has two (2) SSDs right now, 250GB for OS and 500GB (Gen3x2) for data, but I can live with it, I guess.

Use case is general productivity (with portability, almost same dimensions) and light gaming and content creation.

What do you guys think, do I go for it?

Pretty google portable laptop over all. I would get it, Can even game on the side

g14 has a magnesium shell I think.

The g14 is a good laptop, I have heard good reviews for it.

Holding out for the 2022 version to be available where I live. Have been reading reviews left and right for it... using my ThinkBook, hehehe.

Here I am again, but this time checking out 2021 Acer Swift X and 2022 MSI Prestige 14 (w/ 3050)... primary use case is remote working (portability due to country-hopping) using broswers, MS Office, Light 2D and 3D rendering and may be two games (Red Alert 2 & Apex Legends).

Am leaning towards the MSI Prestige, how about you guys?
