ROG Zephyrus G14 : Initial Impressions & Deep Learning Performance (2021, GA401QM, Indian Variant)

This is my initial impressions video of the 2021 version of the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (GA401QM-HZ022TS) sold in India.

The laptop has audio issues when running in its windows & silent mode on battery power. And the fingerprint sensor gets disabled sometimes and requires restarting the laptop to re-enable it.

Steps to recreate the audio issue:
Enable silent mode in armoury crate & disconnect the laptop from the charger.
Watch a YouTube video (preferable with talking heads) in the browser for more than 2.5 minutes and notice that the audio progressively goes out-of-sync with the video.
Some sort of lag compensation appears to be over-correcting and results in the audio playing ahead of the video.

Except for the above issues, I'm impressed with this laptop for the awesome performance on offer in this rather compact form-factor.
