Customer Reviews
I am absolutely amazed with the Asus Zenbook 14! From the moment I first powered it on, it was clear this laptop is a truly stellar piece of engineering.
The performance is nothing short of great. Whether I'm multitasking with a dozen browser tabs, editing photos, or running productivity software, the Zenbook handles it all with smooth, snappy responsiveness. I've encountered zero frustrating slowdowns, making my workday far more efficient and enjoyable.
Beyond the raw speed, the multimedia experience is a true highlight. The sound quality is genuinely amazing. It's rich, clear, and provides an immersive audio experience that you wouldn't typically expect from a compact laptop. Watching videos and listening to music is a pleasure, even without external speakers.
Finally, the design is a winner. The Zenbook 14 is incredibly compact and lightweight, making it the perfect companion for anyone who is constantly on the move. It slips easily into my bag and the minimal weight means I barely notice I'm carrying it. It strikes the perfect balance between screen real estate and portability.
In short, the Asus Zenbook 14 exceeds expectations in every key area: power, portability, and premium features. I would definitely recommend this laptop to anyone looking for a high-quality, ultraportable machine.
Better than I expected, even coming from a gaming laptop with a dedicated graphics card, the freedom of being able to have peak performance without needing to be plugged in along with battery life that hasn't fallen short of 8 hours has been incredible, even with the demanding tasks I had it as an Electrical and Electronics Engineer, it manages easily. I will say there have been some moments of very momentary lag when more than say 10 programs are opened, in terms of letters appearing .5 seconds after they've been typed and that unfortunately, the outside is a fingerprint magnet, but other than those two minor gripes, I couldn't be happier. If you're even more of a power user, I might recommend the 32Gb variant as I'm sure with the added headroom such that the integrated graphics, NPU and CPU all have more RAM to go around, software should run flawlessly.
