Asus Zenbook S 16 (2024) Review

The Zenbook S 16 (2024) is a worthy successor to Asus' previous ultrabooks with a fantastically stylish design and lightweight construction.

Gorgeous, innovative design ; Beefy performance from AMD APU ; Fantastic battery life

Integrated graphics aren’t as powerful as some of the competition

The Asus Zenbook S 16 (2024) is a worthy successor to Asus’ previous ultrabooks with a fantastically stylish design and lightweight construction, as well as lots of power against the competition, a marvellous OLED panel and decent battery life. If...

Asus Zenbook UX301LA review

Is this Asus Zenbook more than just another laptop?

Good overall performance ; Good-quality sound ; Excellent trackpad and gesture software

Comparatively expensive ; SSDs are slow ; Screen resolution produces tiny text

The Zenbook UX301LA performs well, with good sound quality and a very reasonable battery life. However, it's quite underwhelming overall, with a high price and a fairly bland design.

Asus Zenbook UX301 review

Get ready for gorilla warfare with the Zenbook Infinity

Tough as nails ; Looks great ; Haswell power

Fingerprint-tastic

Fast, indestructible and almost painfully sleek, the Zenbook Infinity discreetly slips into the Haswell era with a lot going for it.

Decent build quality ; Responsive QHD touch screen ; Powerful enough for most tasks

Asus Zenbook UX301 hands-on, Gorilla Glass-topped laptop is a stunner - Pocket-lint

With so many laptops on the market it takes something special to impress us. And that's exactly what the Asus Zenbook UX301 did at the IFA electronics

Asus Zenbook UX301LA review

The first Zenbook models matched the Air's silver aluminium chassis as well, but with the UX301LA, the Zenbook now comes in dark blue plastic, with a Gorilla Glass coating over the lid, that's particularly glossy. It looks stylish when first removed...

After using the Asus UX301LA for a while, it leaves us with no major complaints, it works excellently as a portable computer and is unlikely to cause any problems.??But it equally lacks a single wow-factor feature that make us love it. It gets the job...

Expert review by : Dan Ackerman (cnet.co.uk)

Asus gives the Zenbook UX301 a higher-res touch screen

A premium MacBook alternative with nearly every high-end spec imaginable.

The Asus Zenbook UX301 packs in a lot, including a better-than-HD touch screen, big 256GB SSD, and Core i7 processor, in a slim, smart design.

It costs more than most comparable better-then-HD laptops, including the Retina MacBook Pro. The Zenbook doesn't feel as rugged as its price warrants, and its battery life is unimpressive.

Asus was one of the first PC makers to go ultra-thin with its Zenbook line. That latest UX301 version packs in nearly every high-end spec you'd want, but it's priced out of reach for most, and lacks an all-day battery.
