Asus ZenBook 14 review: Is second-screen trackpad a delight or a dud?

With ScreenPad 2.0 inter-trackpad display tech, the ZenBook 14 has a USP. But does it make for a better functioning laptop? Here's our UX434 review.

Solid deep-dish keyboard ; Small footprint ; Has low-key gaming power

Battery life isn’t great ; We’re yet to find a killer use for ScreenPad

A good laptop with a gnawing problem: its in-trackpad screen feels like an awkward appendage. However, the design is compact given the screen size, the keyboard is responsive, and there's real performance versatility here. At the right price,...

ASUS ZenBook 14 Ultralight review: ZenBook perfected

Weighing just 995g and packing Intel's new Tiger Lake processor, this is the new ASUS ZenBook 14 Ultralight.

Extremely light ; Great burst performance ; USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports ; Full-size USB-A and HDMI ports ; 16GB memory and 1TB SSD ; Good battery life

Thermal throttling is an issue ; Display is only Full-HD ; Power consumption hasn't improved ; Trackpad a little small ; Quite pricey

Asus ZenBook 14 (UX425JA) Review

Thin, light, all-aluminum chassis ; Near-borderless screen ; Touchpad doubles as a number pad ; Two Thunderbolt 3 ports ; All-day battery life

Some flex in the chassis, despite all-metal design ; Headphone and Ethernet connections are relegated to dongles

The Asus ZenBook 14 (UX425JA) is an affordable ultraportable with many charms, but buyers shouldn't give in to them until seeing its "Tiger Lake" replacement.
