ASUS ZenBook 14X OLED UX3404 review: Great performance & portability (Updated)

 

How did ASUS cram a Core i9 processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 graphics in a notebook just 16.9mm thick and 1.5kg heavy?

Fantastic OLED display ; Good performance ; Decent battery life ; Truly portable ; Reasonably priced

No touchscreen ; Gets hot and loud when taxed ; Cover prone to smudges ; Erratic trackpad

The TLDR version: A great choice for anyone who wants a portable notebook but doesn't want to compromise (too much) on performance. However, the lack of a touchscreen might be a dealbreaker for some buyers.

Asus Zenbook 14X OLED (UX3404) review: Smart, portable, with a beautiful screen | IT PRO

 

Asus has beefed up its Zenbook offering with this touchscreen-enabled device that will be great to work on the go with, as long as you charge it up the night before

Fantastic screen ; Strong performance ; Quality touchcreen

Poor battery life ; Expensive ; Trackpad features might disrupt your workflow

ASUS ZenBook 14X OLED Space Edition review: Worth the premium? (Updated)

ASUS ZenBook 14X OLED Review Philippines: A Display To Die For

 

Review verdict: The ASUS ZenBook 14X OLED (UM5401) has one of the best screens we've seen so far for a laptop in the Philippines. If you need a laptop that has a color-accurate panel for work (or play), this is the one that you should buy. Pros...

Gorgeous, color-accurate display A processor that can handle content creation

ASUS ZenBook 14X OLED review: The gorgeous display comes at a price

 

The latest version of the ZenBook 14 gets an OLED display. Is it worth the premium?

Fantastic OLED display ; Good performance ; Two USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports ; Full-size USB-A and HDMI ports ; Large trackpad ; Decently priced

Thermal throttling can be an issue ; Below average battery life ; ScreenPad's utility is debatable

Asus Zenbook 14X OLED (UX3404) Review

 

Attainable starting price ; Efficient 13th Gen Core i9 CPU and RTX 3050 GPU in test model ; Super-slim compact design with premium finish ; Brilliant, sharp 120Hz OLED touch screen ; Long battery life ; Wide port selection for its size

Last-gen GeForce RTX 3050 has limited power

The 2023 Asus Zenbook 14X OLED is an attractive and appealing combination of portability, design, and configuration options, all married to a gorgeous display and fast parts.

Asus Zenbook 14X OLED review: a cool but impractical laptop

 

It's out of the ordinary and out of my price range.

Touchpad is also a touchscreen ; 90Hz OLED display ; More power than most people will need ; No heat or fan noise ; Decent port selection

Terrible battery life for an ultraportable ; Mediocre webcam ; Audio isn’t great

Asus’s new Zenbook 14X OLED has a 90Hz OLED screen and a touchpad that doubles as a miniature touchscreen. It’s a very cool idea that’s ultimately not the most practical purchase.
