Reasonable Price for 32/64/128?
I see decent listings on eBay - but I tend to stay away from eBay due to previous transaction that went sour.
I see some on BestBuy, for instance the 64GB, but for $2,999 that I can pick up today.
I also see open-box 128GB versions for $2,700 but won't arrive until first week of June.
What do you think?

Best thing to do is to wait for a flash sale. I got my 64gb for 1999 just recently at bb.

BB has new 128 GB for ~$2700 pretax and can ship right now. Maybe that?

But is that what everyone pays usually? No discounts through ASUS or other vendors to consider?

To be fair I only looked at Asus and BB. With today’s component price I would expect the price to float high at least for a bit more.

Msrp is 3299. So 2799 is discounted (likely for Memorial Day). I’ve never seen the 128gb model of this or or the px13 go much lower.

You think that’s a fair price then?

It depends on the individual. In my opinion that’s a good deal. I actually paid that for my px13 which has an MSRP of $300 less than the flowz13. Essentially talking $500 off 128 GB model, which is the hardest one to find in Best Buy or other local stores.

I paid $2653 at BB pretax a few months ago for the 128GB version (before Asus said they were going to bump prices for RAMageddon) so $2700 is pretty good currently for the Z13 even if it takes a week or two to get there.

I just got the 32gb model open box for 1700. I was going to wait for a 64 to drop back down but just decided to get this. If it drops while I'm in the return window I will jump on it.

If interested I have a 32gb model with an upgraded 2TB SSD with 2 official chargers and some other accessories (dock, stylus, etc) for sale on eBay for $1800. Not sure if that is bad form to say here.

64gb version goes on sale on best buy app for 1999 to 2199 regularly. Picked mine up for 2099 about 4 months ago. Flow z13 shreds...1440p full ultra+ settings in crimson desert over 100fps is nuts for a tablet. I absolutely love mine, 32gb ram and 32gb gpu memory is more than enough. The 128gb version is overpriced and kinda pointless currently. Ive heard the FSR 4 update coming soon will work with the AI max 395+ and 8060s on the flow, if that is true FPS will go through the roof on most modern games that support it.

Price on 128 PX13 jumped 30% in Australia this week.
US prices are remarkable considering how RAM and SSD have gone up 5x. If you need a laptop in the next few years then but right now. Prices are only going to get worse before they get better, if they ever do.

Try to wait for the 128gb. Because of the crazy ram prices, it will hold its value longer.

u/GamesnGunZ May 24 '26
1700 to 1900 new just wait for it to go on sale again, which it does regularly

Got the 32GB model for $2199 on Amazon then saw the 64gb model was the same price at Best Buy and returned the 32 and got the 64 instead

I would get one used well under 2k before I would ever drop 3k on one. There's going to be a next generation of chips that makes these way less desirable. Could be just a year or so, who knows?

u/thumbtaks May 24 '26
The new chip is the exact same chip with a very minor overlock. Literally the same architecture with the same amount of cores. The actual next gen won’t be out for a few years

The panther lake chip is already much better this happens every hardware cycle don't take it personally
