ASUSZenBook 14 Ultra-Slim Laptop 14” Full HD NanoEdge Bezel, Intel Core i7-1065G7, 8GB RAM, 512GB PCIe SSD, NumberPad, Thunderbolt 3, Windows 10 Home, Pine Grey, UX425JA-EB71

This is the fourth 4th Asus Zenbook we've bot. The features as advertised. I wouldn't know what else I'd want to see.So light, I nearly threw it over my head unboxing it. Much more robust back hinge. Full-featured. Crisp screen. Audio quality has been significantly improved. Plenty of connectivity ports. In addition, USB-C charging ... eliminates lugging a proprietary power supply (Huzzah!). The Asus 'signature' metallic exterior makes it easy on the eyes.Both startup and shutdown are rocket fast ... something in the range of a second. My older Zen can take up to 30 seconds.A 6-hour battery is a bit skimpy for transcontinental flights but clearly advertised and easily overcome with a battery backup.The main thing for me is fast setup. After downloading MS updates, my particular settings and data were pulled down from OneCloud. It took two elapsed hours to go from box to entire operation. Compared to the old constipated days/weeks of frustration booting up a new computer, this Asus Zen is a minor miracle.How could I have bought more value for the money? Very happy. Exceeds expectations—incredible value.

I have been using this laptop for just over 30 days and here is my feedback:PRO's:GREAT battery life (12+ hours consistently in normal use with power bar at max)GREAT build qualityVERY thin and lightGREAT Price to Performance ratioHinge Lift on screen definitely improves coolingIt is a really premium looking laptop in person and definitely looks high end for the priceCON'sFan noise is a bit too much compared to a surface or xps 13 (there is a silent mode but drops boost clock to 2.8)No touch screen (if you are into that sort of thing, I am not personally)Boost clock is a bit low when on battery (3.9g) compared to chip performance (underclocked to save power)Screen does not go full 90 degrees open which I like for laying in bed or on the sofa (but it works just fine, I am just being picky because it is a review)User Case:I am a computer hardware enthusiast. I much prefer desktop PC's to laptops so when I set out to purchase a laptop for myself I did quite a bit of research. For me a laptop is not for gaming but for doing work, browsing the internet, watching video and updating social media. I wanted a machine that was lightweight, powerful enough to open large excel spreadsheets, had enough memory to manage a massive outlook .dat file had a good screen for watching video and had great battery life so I did not need to carry a charger with me. Also, I wanted a machine that would charge using USB-C vs a barrel plug and power brick. I also wanted thunderbolt in order to doc into my station in my office (at some point when we ever go back). I found all of these things in this machine for under 1k.I was fully expecting to pay 1700 or more to find a machine that I liked and I was very surprised to find an intel ice lake powered machine for this price point. I was concerned that only having 8g of ram was going to be an issue as 16g would be what I consider minimum acceptable levels. So far this has not been an problem, even on larger excel files but then bear in mind I do not have a bunch of apps installed on this machine, mostly just MS office and Minecraft (which the iris graphics runs just fine btw). This machine performs great, runs everything I need it to and I feel I am getting a dell XPS build quality and user experience for a lot less money. I like the larger XPS-ish track pad and the integrated num pad is also nice. While you are not going to do any AAA gaming on this machine that is not what you buy a thin and light to do (or really any laptop at all regardless of the marketing). All in all I would highly recommend this unit to anyone looking to buy a good performing thin and light laptop in 2020 even with the upcoming tiger lake releases.

So far so good, everything loads up fast, screen is crisp. Quite pleased with both the hardware and the software. Comes with a bonus branded laptop sleeve (pretty decent look and quality). Could tell this product was put together quite thoughtfully. I may very well become a new fan of the Asus brand.

Lo sto usando da un mesetto e mi trovo molto bene, è leggero, lo schermo non ha quasi bordi quindi è molto largo. È velocissimo e come prestazioni mi sembra che funzioni molto bene. Unica pecca: sulla sezione domande e risposte c’era scritto che la tastiera sarebbe stata in italiano, non è così, dalla tastiera al caricatore è tutto in inglese, quindi mi devo riabituare al layout diverso. Il servizio clienti Amazon è stato molto gentile e disponibile, servizio 10/10, non penso che riacquisterei presso lo stesso venditore però.

I got this to replace my 7 year old Surface Pro. I wanted a light light laptop, support for WIF6, faster USB ports and WPA3. This fits the bill.. At 2.5 lbs it is easy to balance on my lap. I use it mostly to surf the web and do some spread sheet work. The keyboard has a nice feel to it. The increased battery life is nice since my old laptop battery was requiring recharging more often as is expected. Right now I am getting about 22 hours per charge. I also like the crisp monitor (full HD), It is about the size off my old LAPTOP but with a larger display. Setup was simple and once configured immediately connected to the internet at WFI6 speeds and used WPA3 security. The only con I can think of I wish they had placed one Thunderbolt 4 USB on each side since my wall socket is on the right. The backlit keyboard is nice in a darkened room. The sleeve is a nice addition and protects the notebook. I am very happy with my purchase and would buy it again. It reflected ASUS attention to detail and quality. I like the military-grade durability.
