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.

Great Improvement
Solid thin and light laptop with great performance. Only got hot during initial updates which is pretty much expected at this point with windows laptops. During normal use its super quiet and cool. Display is amazing and does not that screen door effect that some OLED touchscreen laptops do.

Great laptop, great platform, small things...
I would give this laptop 4.5 stars if I could, but overall it's excellent. Lunar Lake (Core Ultra 200V series) doesn't have the same multi-threaded grunt that other PCs (like SD X and Ryzen AI) have, but I mostly use this for office style work, browsing, and coding. I like the balance of efficiency, screen quality, compatibility, and "everyday" performance that it gives more than any other laptop system by far! On to the laptop: Pros: - Great screen and overall build quality - Good sound quality - Decent touchpad and keyboard Cons: - I wish the display went flat - Cooling system could be better. The Lenovo Slim 7i Aura is much cooler running - Really could have used dual sided USB-C. Overall, I think the Zenbook S 14 is a great PC though. Happy to replace my M1 macbook air with it.
