First of all, you need to use ASUS' ARMOURY CRATE software to change and play around with the AniMe Matrix display. Just look for AniMe Matrix option inside and you'll get to the AniMe Matrix page where you'll see all the settings.
Full Answer
There’s no isolation between the diamonds, so light bleeds from each to its neighbours. The LEDs update at 16Hz, meaning you can play 16fps animations on the matrix. The AniMe Matrix can be controlled via ASUS’ Armoury Crate software. This software includes some tools for importing and tweaking content to be displayed on the matrix.
You can check the label on the giftbox. If it shows as [Eclipse Grey with AniMe Matrix] or [Moonlight White with Anime Matrix], it means the AniMe Matrix Display is supported on your laptop. 3.
Next, click the Devices button on the left sidebar. If you're using a laptop, like the AniMe Matrix™-clad Zephyrus G14, select AniMe Matrix™ from the list. If you're using a peripheral like a Delta S Animate headset or Strix Flare Animate keyboard, choose your device in question from the list and select the AniMe Matrix™ tab.
The custom settings of AniMe Matrix™ Display need to be adjusted via Armoury Crate. (If AniMe Matrix™ Display is not supported on your laptop, the settings of AniMe Matrix™ Display will not show up even if you have updated Armoury Crate up to V2.6.14 or above.)
4-1-1. Type and search [ARMOURY CRATE] in the Windows search bar(1), then click on [Open](2). 4-1-2. Method 1: Select [Device](3), then select [AniMe Matrix](4) to get into the main page of AniMe Matrix Display application.

No. This is not an Anime Matrix Model. The Anime Matrix Model according to articles that I've read so far is stuck with a 60hz refresh rate (double-check it), and a little heavier/ thicker than this model. As far as I know, the anime matrix model is not available yet in the market as of this month May 2020.
Asus put the optional Anime Matrix display on the lid on the G14, but not on the G15, as well as added a reflective prismatic nanofilm layer under the array of dots on both, which shines in different colors based on the angle you're looking at it.
Featuring a first-of-its-kind AniMe Matrix display, the G14 offers deep personalization in a truly unique way. The groundbreaking display is made up of 1,215 individual mini-LEDs that can be used to display custom images and animations that express your creativity.
This “AniMe Matrix” display consists of 1,215 Mini-LEDs that support 256 levels of brightness each and can be used to show anything from the time to music visualizers, GIFs, or an animated logo from your favorite technology website (see above).

A: NO, this version doesn't haves the AniMe Matrix.
The AniMe Matrix can be controlled via ASUS’ Armoury Crate software. This software includes some tools for importing and tweaking content to be displayed on the matrix. It also includes a preview of what will be displayed on the matrix. (This preview is inaccurate in many ways and I recommend using it solely for alignment purposes.)
“AniMe Matrix” is ASUS’ name for the programmable LED matrix display on the rear of the lid of certain Zephyrus G14 models. ASUS include some nice graphics and animations you can display on this by default (I’m particularly fond of the “SEE YA” animation that plays whenever you shut down the laptop) but given that ASUS pitch the AniMe Matrix as a tool for self-expression, the intention seems to be that you will create your own content for it.
It’s also got quite poor depth. In the following image the panel is showing a gradient that goes from white to black. The red arrow indicate s the direction of the gradient.
To create shapes and lines that will appear diagonally on the laptop, make lines that are horizontal or vertical on the template. Use Inkscape’s “snap to grids” feature to ensure pixel-perfect placement.
The template also includes a black mask which shows the region that will be visible on the matrix, four alignment squares, a diamond grid guide pattern, and a “THIS WAY UP” arrow. These objects should all be “locked”, so if you do Select All and Delete it should remove the example shapes while preserving the actual template shapes.
Due to the limitations of the matrix display, images and animations work best if they contain simple shapes with very high contrast.
In practice, I found that authoring content for the matrix is trickier than you might expect. The matrix itself is low resolution, greyscale only, skewed, and has significant light bleed between neighbouring “pixels”. Images are also rescaled before they appear on the matrix, and this rescaling also tweaks the aspect ratio. Due to all of these factors, content often ends up appearing blurry and indistinct on the panel.
