Top tier battery life with excellent performance!
Excellent performance in such a thin and light laptop. This laptop is seriously light and very portable, but that doesn't mean small performance. This new Intel Lunar Lake chip packs 8 cores, a beefy iGPU that can actually do some light gaming and an NPU that meets requirements for the new AI PC in Windows. The 8 cores are 4P and 4E cores. Intel ditched the hyper threading on these cores to keep this chip super efficient. They did this by getting the IPC through the roof, meaning these 8 cores can keep up with laptops with much higher core counts. The new Intel iGPU is based on Intel's upcoming Battlemage architecture and o boy this thing is good. Whether you're watching an 8K video on YouTube or playing some of your favorite games, this iGPU handles it all really well. Even modern AAA titles are playable on this laptop with reduced settings or resolution. Older games can easily run at over 120fps, meaning you can max out that 120Hz OLED panel. Speaking of the panel, did I mention this thing is 3K 120Hz OLED? Whether you're just browsing the web or playing games, the screen is buttery smooth. You will notice this smoothness just scrolling on webpages or reading documents. It's fairly bright at 400nits, has great HDR support, and has adaptive sync! Yes this screen is 48-120Hz adaptive sync and provides a tear-free gaming experience. Speakers are above average, clear and loud, Dolby Support in the driver helps add a bit more. Very pleased. The keyboard feels great to type on and the backlighting gets very bright and each key is lit properly with the white light! The text on the keyboard is also big and easy to find your key quick. I tested the display port out feature over TB4, this laptop has 2x TB4. It had no issue running my 4K 240Hz OLED. Great to see this. Fan noise on this laptop is minimal even when running the fans at maximum speed for gaming (you can choose fan speed in Asus software) or nearly dead silent when doing light tasks. And finally battery life, WOW! This laptop has what feels like all day battery life. Insane for an x86 Intel laptop. They finally did it, it seems they now have class leading battery life. If you're in the market for a new laptop, this should be top of your list! If you're a student or business professional that wants a thin and mobile laptop with great performance and all day battery this is for you. Then when you want to wind down and do a bit of light gaming, it can do that too. Overall, just a great laptop that does well in all areas.

Oustanding advanced battery efficient processer
One of the best computers I have ever had. The Lunar Lake processor provides extensive battery life. It has one if the fastest NPUs with a TOPs of 47. The screen is OLED and outstanding. It also does a decent job of video rendering using Adobe Premier. It outperforms my old laptop, a top of the line Surfacebook 3. The notebook is sturdy and light. The only drawback is the shift symbols on the keboard are somewhat hard to see, but this is a minor drawback. It is also somewhat perplexing why these new generation Series 2 processors are not listed as such on the unit. They truly are a significant advance which leaves AMD in the dust and a avoids software compatibility problems.

Premium and efficient v258 laptop but...
This is a review for the second unit I have purchased. I originally purchased this unit due to the massively positive reviews it received. This Asus laptop is a very fine machine. Its OLED screen is bright enough for indoor use. HDR content looks beautiful when HDR is enabled. The body with its ceraluminum top is also a nice touch. It's lightweight and small enough that it would fit nicely on an airplane tray if used while traveling. When under load, the fans are audible but not loud enough to be disruptive. Where this laptop suffers is in its audio. As reviewers have mentioned, the audio does carry a considerable amount of base for a laptop, rivaling some other laptops like the Macbook Air and, to some extent, the Macbook Pro. However, even at low volumes, there is distortion. The laptop comes with a sound system that uses Cirrus Audio. Cirrus makes good stuff. But, regardless of what my configuration settings are for audio... - Dolby Atmos On/Off - Asus AI noise cancellation On/Off - Asus Audio modes (Dynamic all the way down to Custom with it Volume boost on/off or Spacial audio on/off) - Windows Spatial audio on/off from the Windows audio settings ... I have been unable to clear out the distortion i hear on this laptop. For those with audio knowledge, I find that the area where this laptop really has issues with distortion occur between 670Hz and 800Hz and is quite noticeable when listening to piano music. For other genres of music (rock/trance), it's still there isn't so pronounced and is easier to overlook. I have tried to look past the audio issue. But as a person who listens to a lot of music, this laptop loses a lot of value for me. As mentioned at the start, this is my second laptop. I replaced the first one as I was thinking it was a defective speaker. Now that the second one has the same issue, I do believe that it's a software driver issue. As of this writing, the laptop is running the latest driver available. Hopefully, a solution will be found. For now, the audio issue a deal breaker for me. I'll be returning the unit. If audio isn't a big concern for you, this laptop is fantastic.
