TRANSCEND YOUR REALITY
For gamers who demand the absolute best motion and image clarity, the Zephyrus M16 offers an incredible Nebula HDR Display with a 240Hz refresh rate, 100% DCI-P3 coverage, and a staggering 1100 nits of peak brightness for stunning HDR gameplay. The 16-inch, 16:10 Mini LED panel provides incredibly deep blacks for content that jumps right off the screen, whether you’re watching a movie or playing a fast-moving arena shooter. On models without the Mini LED panel, the max brightness peaks at 500 nits, but both panels share QHD resolution and a 240Hz refresh rate, and all models share an incredible 92% screen-to-body ratio.

Nebula HDR Engine
The Nebula HDR engine is a purpose-built local dimming algorithm that produces stunning highlights with unparalleled depth. Trained on an instruction set of more than 150 videos and over 2000 still photos, the algorithm can dynamically adjust the HDR lighting needed to minimize blooming around individual dimming zones by 25%.

TACKLE ANYTHING
Enjoy portability and versatility without sacrificing Windows 11 Pro gaming power. The ROG Zephyrus M16 speeds through gaming and multitasking with up to a 13th Gen Intel® Core™ i9-13900H processor. Game with confidence with up to an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4090 Laptop GPU. With a dedicated MUX Switch, NVIDIA® Advanced Optimus, and G-SYNC support, every game runs at peak performance with no tearing. Move freely to create, stream, and game wherever the mood strikes.

13th Gen Intel® Core™ i9 Processor
Power through any game or project with an Intel® Core™ i9-13900H processor featuring a hybrid architecture built from the ground up for Windows 11. With up to 6 Performance-cores and 8 Efficient-cores, AAA gaming and streaming is effortless.

GPU POWER UNLEASHED
Top-tier components require power, especially when it comes to maximising your GPU’s performance. Powered by NVIDIA DLSS 3, ultra-efficient Ada Lovelace arch, and Max-Q Technologies. The NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4090 Laptop GPU is fully unleashed with a max TGP of 145W, thanks to the extra 25W available with Dynamic Boost. Higher power limits allow the card to boost higher for longer, squeezing the absolute most performance out of your machine and ensuring you have highest framerates possible.

MUX Switch with NVIDIA Advanced Optimus
With NVIDIA® Advanced Optimus, the laptop can automatically route frames from the discrete GPU directly to the display using a MUX Switch, bypassing the integrated graphics. This pathing improves performance by 5-10% compared to machines without a MUX Switch, making sure you get the absolute best gaming experience — all without needing touch a single button.

GAME. STREAM. CREATE.
The Zephyrus M16 is built from the ground up for gamers — and, of course, game developers. The Zephyrus M16 can run all of the latest game engines like Unity and Autodesk, enabling you to unlock your creativity and try your hand at making something new. Whether you’re a digital artist, streamer, video editor, or dabble with animation and game development, the Zephyrus M16 has all the horsepower you need to take your creations to the next level.

The ROG Zephyrus M16 builds upon years of Intelligent Cooling experience to relentlessly push the boundaries of what an ultraportable laptop is capable of. Our Tri-Fan Technology and unique full-width heatsink elevate the M16 from just a thin and light to a true gaming machine. Thermal Grizzly liquid metal thermal compound, a unique Tri-Fan thermal module, and the ability to stay completely silent with 0dB Ambient Cooling Technology keep the Zephyrus M16 on the cutting edge of cool.

0dB Ambient Cooling
Enjoy truly silent cooling under light workloads with 0dB Ambient Cooling Technology. In the Silent operating mode, the cooling system switches off all fans during everyday tasks to dissipate heat passively. This lets you concentrate on your work and immerse yourself in movies with less distraction. If CPU or GPU temperatures increase, the fans automatically switch on again.

STYLISH. SOPHISTICATED. SUPERCHARGED.
For the first time, the M16 will feature an AniMe Matrix™ display. With 18,710 precision machined holes on the lid of the machine, animations are crisper and cleaner than ever before. For models without the AniMe Matrix™ LED array, the perforations are covered with Monochrome Film, allowing the lid to colour shift with the light. For 2023, we’re also introducing a new matte black colour with an overfiring finish. Helping to complete the stealth look, this finish is also incredibly fingerprint resistant. With four polished side panels and a holographic nameplate, the M16 exudes a sense of style and luxury not seen in standard gaming laptops.

Brush up
Traditional machining techniques for a laptop chassis involve drill cuts, which can leave some slight visible marks. The M16 has had its chassis polished to perfection with ten grinding passes, leaving a stunning and luxurious finish on all four sidewalls.

EXPLORE THE MATRIX
AniMe Matrix™ and Virtual Pet OMNI have both gotten an upgrade. More LEDs mean more animation possibilities, and OMNI returns with a whole host of mini games, like the Slot Machine, Shoot’em Up and Whack-A-Mole. The games will also light up the AniMe Matrix™ as you progress, and getting high scores will unlock more animations for OMNI as he joins you on the desktop.

ENDLESS PERSONALISATION
Make the Zephyrus M16 uniquely yours with customisable animation options. Display text messages or system notifications, set the matrix to respond in real time to your audio source, or create a custom animation of your very own.

UNIFIED SYSTEM TUNING AND PERSONALISATION
ROG’s own OMNI mascot acts as a fun sidekick who doubles as an interactive assistant. OMNI lives on your desktop after activation and reacts in real time to changes in system load and battery level. The virtual pet can also be configured to hang out on the Zephyrus M16’s AniMe Matrix™ display.

PORTABILITY
19.9mm
< 2.1kg
Portability wasn’t sacrificed for flagship gaming power. Weighing under 2.1kg and less than 20mm thick, the M16 is a joy to travel with.

90Wh
Work and play confidently far from wall sockets with a large 90Wh battery.

50% in 30min
That mobility continues with fast charging support that can juice up the M16 from 0-50% in just 30 minutes.

FHD 1080p
An infrared camera ensures seamless unlocking with Windows Hello support, even in low light conditions.

With full support for the new Wi-Fi 6E standard, the M16 can enjoy broadband level connections, even in congested networks.

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-cancelling woofers offer beautifully balanced acoustics, all housed in a redesigned speaker pattern. A customisable 3D mic array captures audio in a variety of scenarios, while Two-Way AI Noise Cancellation clarifies sound from your feed and incoming feeds as well.

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 minimising 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.

THE KEY TO VICTORY
Maintain a low profile with a new Stealth Type keyboard that keeps 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. With a 20 million keypress lifetime, 1.7mm travel distance, and illuminated keycaps, you’ll be typing comfortably in all conditions for years to come.

EXPANSIVE 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. Drive 4K high refresh rate monitors, or up to 8K 60Hz with a dedicated HDMI 2.1 port. A microSD slot makes it easy for creators to shoot, edit, and process massive images and videos anywhere.

GEAR UP AND GAME
Game in style with ROG accessories. Aim precisely where you mean to with the 19,000 dpi sensor on the ROG Gladius III mouse. Immerse in rich, true-to-life sound with the ROG Fusion II 300 headset. Carry it all safely with you in a durable, RGB-accented 15” ROG Ranger backpack.
