Whine, cooling fan rattle, and loose case
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a wonderful laptop and I really love the OLED display. However, this experience is offset by noticeable electronics whine, rattling from the cooling fan area, and looseness in the bottom panel corner adjacent to the HDMI port. It is just disappointing to work in a quiet location like the library and to be able to hear the whine and rattle. I'm also dismayed that one of the corners of the bottom panel is about 0.5mm from being flush and makes a popping sound as the panel snaps in and out with the gentlest of applied pressure

Slow on internet
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall the computer is fine. My biggest complaints are it has a slow reaction speed when connected to Internet. The issue is not the Internet speeds and this computer is the only connected device experiencing this extremely slow doors issue.

Unstable and runs hot
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I Purchased this initially as an open box, but after some stability and WiFi problems I decided to exchange it for a new one. I got the new one home, and the setup went significantly better. I got through the initial setup, ran system and windows updates, Updated the Bios, and began installing my applications. While using AC power everything appeared to be good, however when I switched to Battery power it began experiencing the same problems as the open box. It locked up solid to the point that the curser wouldn't even move across the screen. I had to hard boot the laptop to get it to be usable again. Once again when it booted up wifi would be detected but wouldn't connect. This would eventually connect once left to idle for ~1-2 minutes. I reached out to support using the My Asus app and while chatting with Asus support the laptop crashed again (no curser movement, clock stopped, just a complete crash). I tried to reconnect to chat after rebooting and couldn't get through. Asus did send an email with a phone number and case number, however when calling it sounded like they would pickup, but nobody was there. I sat that way for over 10 min until the call was ended. I love the style, the size, and how light this computer is, however with the stability problems I don't think this is a very practical computer for most people.

Posted .Dear MattD,
Thank you for reaching out.
We do understand your disappointment with the laptop's stability issue and your concern about thermal issues. It is normal for laptop, with the same hardware configuration and regardless of the manufacturer, to generate more heat than normal while under heavy, like running resource-intensive applications, WINDOWS Update and antivirus scan. When system resource utilization is high, this will generate more heat than normal and tends to trigger the fan to spin at full throttle. Please ensure the air ventilations are free from obstructions in order to have an efficient air flow for better heat dissipation. While running resource-intensive application, please ensure no other resource hungry applications are running in the background, this will definitely spike the temperature. The heat or temperature does decreases or normalizes once system resource utilization goes down. About the stability issue you are experiencing, please do a Cloud Recovery, as a last resort, since Windows, drivers, BIOS and applications are updated. For helpful tips on how to run Cloud Recovery, please visit our Product Support page at:  https://www.asus.com/support/cloud-recovery/ .
Should you need further assistance with the laptop, please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I would be more than happy to help. Or you are most welcome to call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent from the link: https://www.asus.com/us/support/article/1135/.
Thank you for choosing an ASUS product.

Decent laptop, mine had problems.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good build quality, port selection, keyboard, but my laptop had performance issues that i couldn't not resolve after trying every solution in the book. The only other thing i world have liked to see is either a higher resolution screen or a higher refresh rate screen. Many laptops have both and are still OLED. Overall probably not worth $1000 but at a discounted price it is good.

Very Difficult to Maintain Use.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very complicated to set up, then after several updates over the year it has become every increasingly difficult to maintain use. Now access any services is unavailable. Very disappointed its so difficult to use new laptop technology, even though I have been using laptops at work and home for decades.

Powerful, Portable, and Great battery life
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This new Asus Zenbook model appears to be an extension to the existing Zenbook 14 line-up. Aesthetics: Just like all the previous Zenbooks the build quality is fantastic. The entire laptop is metal and feels very premium. The color is called Jasper Grey which is just a darker grey color. I've noticed the darker grey does show finger prints more easily but cleans off. It has a sleek design that is both stylish and professional looking. Even with everything they stuffed into this laptop they still somehow managed to keep it thin. It weights just under 3lbs. Specs: Lets get the basic specs out of the way. 14" 1080p 16:10 OLED display Intel Core Ultra 7 processor 16gb of DDR5 RAM Intel Arc iGPU 1tb SSD drive Display: The main difference between this model and previous more expensive model is the display. These don't have the 3k OLED high refresh display but instead have a FHD OLED display, but in return lower res display you get better battery life. This laptop comes with a 14-inch FHD 60Hz 16:10 OLED display. Asus calls it a Lumina OLED display. The display is sharp and clear, with great contrast and vibrant colors. Its glossy and supports touch. It also gets bright enough to the point I dont need to set to to max brightness. I do wish they would have included a higher refresh rate but over all the display really does look stunning. I'm just happy to have a OLED display! Sound: Speakers actually sound pretty descent for how thin this thing is. You can tweak the EQ setting in the Asus app if you want but I would say they sound better than most Windows laptops I've used. Keyboard/Touch Pad: The keyboard feels responsive and is extremely easy to type on. Basically the same keyboard as the last few gens. It also has 3 levels of brightness and gets pretty bright on highest setting. A large touch pad is a must for me and this thing delivers that as well. I also like what they choose for the shortcut buttons in the F keys. Performance: The new Intel Core Ultra 7 processors are actually really good. Performance-wise I was impressed. With hyper-threading it comes out to be 16 cores! The 16GB of DDR5 RAM can handle multitasking with ease. Everything loads and responds quickly as you would expect. I noticed no lag at all. It wakes almost instantly after opening the lid and is ready to go. Doing general every day stuff like watching videos and surfing the web this laptop was completely silent. I haven't noticed any heat issues like I did with some of the previous i7 processors. The only time I heard the fans spin up is when I was initially setting it up. Outside of that its been completely silent. No wifi 7 but does comes with a Intel wifi AX211 card that supports up to wifi 6e. I ran some speed tests on my 6e wifi and sure enough it delivered gigabit speeds as expected. Battery: The battery is 75Wh. It says you can get up to 15 hours of use. I kind of balked at that when I read it but wow this thing delivers. I dont know if its the new Intel processor or because it uses an OLED display but it gets better battery life than any other Windows laptop I've ever used. It charges via USB-C. Summary: Overall this Asus Zenbook is a fantastic all-around laptop with great battery life. It is powerful, portable, and stylish. I would say if you want the better display then get the previous model but if you want better battery life get this one. Either way get a Zenbook because they are awesome laptops!
