4 Best 2-In-1 Gaming Laptops

Specs:

• CPU / Processor: AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS
• GPU / Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060
• RAM / Memory: 32GB
• Storage: 1TB PCIe SSD
• Display: 16″ WQXGA Touchscreen display with 165Hz refresh

Leave it to Asus to come up with something like this. They have a strong lineup of 2-in-1 laptops and naturally, they made some of them extra strong. A case in point is this bad boy from the previous generation which, thanks to Nvidia’s relative lack of innovation for the RTX 4000 series, means it aged well.

The RTX 3060 is still quite a formidable gaming hardware, paired with the Ryzen 9 processor, this laptop embodies having your cake and eating it too since you can use it for both work and play while also being a tablet and thin enough.

Specs:

• CPU / Processor: Intel Core i9-12900H
• GPU / Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti / RTX 3080 Ti
• RAM / Memory: 16GB
• Storage: 1TB PCIe SSD
• Display: 13.4” 4K UHD+ (3840 x 2400) 16:10 IPS Type Pantone Validated Touchscreen

Judge not by size is the motto here, because despite being a 13-inch laptop/tablet combo, the Asus ROG Flow Z13 comes with an RTX 3050 Ti which makes it still viable for gaming, as long as you’re fine with low-medium settings.

If that’s not enough, know that this bundle comes with an external RTX 3080 Ti that you can plug into the small 2-in-1 laptop and then turn it into a high-end gaming machine. Of course, the bulk of the price was due to the RTX 3080 Ti. There are versions of this bundle without the RTX 3080 Ti if you prefer.

Specs:

• CPU / Processor: Intel Core i7-1360P (13th Gen)
• GPU / Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050
• RAM / Memory: 32GB
• Storage: 1TB PCIe SSD
• Display: 16″ 2560 x 1600 165 Hz Touchscreen

While the Asus ROG Flow Z13 is a small package, it comes with the compromise of a smaller screen. MSI is more thoughtful than that and made a thin and light 2-in-1- laptop with a large 16-inch screen for your comfort.

For gaming, it’s no slouch as it comes equipped with an RTX 4050 which is nearly on par with an RTX 3060. As the cherry on top, all the major components of this gaming laptop are current-gen, which obviously adds to the price tag.

Specs:

• CPU / Processor: Intel Core i7-11700
• GPU / Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti
• RAM / Memory: 16GB
• Storage: 512TB PCIe SSD
• Display: 14.4” PixelSense Flow 120 Hz Touchscreen

Most of the options here are either too serious or have too much gamer aesthetics. That’s why here’s another choice if your laptop’s appearance matters much to you more than its specs. The Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio is sleek and almost looks like a convertible MacBook Air.

It’s also decent for gaming with an RTX 3050 Ti though Microsoft really needs to be more generous with the storage and the RAM, especially for the laptop’s asking price. Still, this compact convertible is a competitive option in the looks department.
