It was a very good product if the price was discounted. I have been using the product for about a week and I am satisfied. It is possible to do a lot of work. Battery life varies depending on how you use it. It is a thin and very beautiful product. God willing, I will use the product for a few years without any problems. Thank you asus

It seems to be a nice notebook. The keyboard is difficult to see unless I'm directly over it or there's unobstructed light. If my hand casts a shadow I can't see the letters/numbers.
This is my 1st experience with Windows 11 which poses it's ow problems. Like I can't find my calendar except by accident. I thought I had it figured out but nooo.
I really don't know about the speed or battery life.

The laptop is worth every penny. The Best Buy team has really kept it in an excellent condition as promised. This one feels like brand new. Comparing it with a similar brand new model bought from Amazon by a friend, there were no differences even when this one is a refurbished laptop!

Verdict: I have been more and more impressed with Asus computers… Both their gaming laptops and productivity laptops are impressive. The new Asus Zenbook 14 laptop is no exception. It is compact but capable, notably with an intel Core Ultra i7, 16gb or RAM, and a 1TB SSD drive. The OLED screen is beautiful, and matches the quality, feel, and sleek design of the laptop.
First impressions. This laptop looks great; I love the dark grey color. It’s thin and portable. The full HD OLED screen is also very thin with virtually no bezel, and it’s actually a touchscreen! It has a webcam with a privacy shutter (thank you!). The keyboard has lighted keys that feel comfortable and type quietly. At this size, the keyboard does not offer a dedicated numeric keypad, which is normal. The trackpad is very generous and works well. Setup was similar to other Windows laptops.
Performance. I am quite pleased with this laptop… it brings a lot of things together very nicely. If you are not a heavy gamer, I think this offers compelling specs for a solid laptop for home, work, and travel. The intel processor is fast and tuned to better support AI functions. The screen is beautiful for work and media; full HD and 60hz refresh is plenty for a wonderful experience. Storage is fast and ample. And RAM makes multitasking easy for multiple programs, endless browser tabs, and streaming, all done simultaneously. At only 3lbs, it makes a wonderful travel companion. At 14 inches, it packs easily into a backpack, and "military spec" means that it will last a long time. The speakers sound good, and the webcam is HD quality with interesting additional features.
Things I love.
- Weighs less than 3lbs; it’s thin, small, and highly portable
- Advertised to have 15 hours of battery life, so you can take on the road for all day battery
- Windows 11, including copilot!
- intel Core Ultra i7 with an integrated AI engine
- Great multitasking with 16GB of RAM
- 1TB SSD drive for fast boot up and plenty of space
- Built-in HD webcam with a privacy shutter and built in microphone
- Thin OLED screen (60hz refresh rate) with almost no bezel
- Quality speakers and sound
- Runs very quietly; virtually no fan noise
- Comfortable and quiet keyboard with a large trackpad
- Meets MIL-STD 810H military standards for reliability in the harshest conditions
- Beautiful screen saver and new Asus logo
Things I don’t love.
- Only two USB-C ports (one used for power most of the time), one USB-A port, and one HDMI
- No dedicated graphics card to support graphic intensive work or gaming, but the integrated card will support most light to medium requirements
- The plug adapter gets noticeably hot
Overall, this is a wonderful laptop that will meet most people’s professional and personal needs, minus for heavy gamers. Best of all, it is adequate for work, home use, and especially travel. The new Asus Zenbook 14 delivers quality. I highly recommend this laptop.

OVERALL ASSESSMENT: After both my wife and I used this ASUS Q425M for 5-days, we are both blown away by this laptop, and totally in awe at how much technology can be contained in a less than 3-pound device. The 14” touch-screen OLED display performed flawlessly paired up with the new 13th generation Intel Ultra-7 EVO CPU with Intel ARC graphics. Although I prefer 32GB of system memory (RAM), the stock 16GB ran our daily tasks just fine without any resource issues. The 1TB of SSD (PCIe 4.0) is another nice touch and can be upgraded/replaced if you require additional storage capabilities. But the "pièce de résistance", is the 75 Watt-Hour battery, that ASUS states will last up to 15 hours, and I’m intended to believe that claim.
DISPLAY: Personally, I was never really a fan of touch-screens, I thought most performed poorly, therefore I have always gravitated to a wireless mouse or using the stock track/touch pad. But after using this OLED 1920 x 1200 (WUXGA – 60Hz) touch display, I quickly bonded with the simplicity of use. The up to 500nits (HDR on, 400 HDR off) of display brightness is great for indoor use. And my default setup is HDR off, with brightness set around 70%, and that is more than sufficient for a bright viewing experience.
KEYBOARD: Solid keys that do not feel mushy or cheap, have decent tactile feedback, and are back-lit (3 intensity levels plus off). No numeric pad, and I can live without one, that keeps the over laptop footprint small and portable while still having decent sized keys. But it would have been nice if ASUS included their “ASUS NumberPad 2.0" technology embedded into their large touchpad. And I am somewhat surprised that it wasn’t included at this $1k price range.
CPU: The “Meteor Lake” AI Enhanced Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 Processor is one snappy CPU that is sufficiently fast enough for most all daily computing tasks. Boots up very quickly and awakes from sleep even faster. No doubt this CPU’s efficiency is a component in the overall extended battery life. No dedicated GPU, so high performance gaming enthusiasts should look elsewhere.
MEMORY: 16 Gigabytes of LPDDR5x ram. I get it, these new memory chips are required to be soldered on the motherboard for their higher speed ratings and are not stick/module replacement upgradable. Therefore, if one is looking for, or requires 32GB or more ram, you’ll also need to look elsewhere.
BATTERY: I’m still shaking my head in amazement over how long this battery will provide power in this 3-pound laptop. Now I have this setup for non-HDR use, keyboard backlight set to 33%, Display set to 70%, Power Mode = Best Power Efficiency, Battery Saver = Always, with Screen and Sleep set to Windows 11 default of 3 minutes to turn the screen off and sleep for both battery and plugged in. With those settings, Windows show 13-hrs 59-minutes of battery life remaining at 76% after some internet surfing (see picture). Not too shabby at all, and the best battery life I have ever experienced with using numerous laptops over the past 15 years.
PORTS: Ok, I will acknowledge there are limited ports here, primarily due to space constraints. Only two USB-C’s (Thunderbolt 4), one USB-A, an HDMI 2.1 output, plus a headphone out jack. Note that one of the USB-C ports is used for charging with the supplied 65-watt charger. That being said, for daily use, the ports are appropriate. If there was one additional port, I could ask for ASUS to squeeze in, it would be a micro-SD card reader. But I can get by without it by using an adapter with the USB-A port.
CAMERA: I normally do not see a need to mention a laptop camera during reviews. But because this is an FHD and IR camera, it will support Windows Facial Recognition for logging into your account. Sweet indeed!
RATING: The ASUS Q425M 14” QLED Touch laptop earned a solid 5-Stars for its light weight, bold and bright display, fast CPU, and let’s not forget it’s extended battery life capabilities. And if you can catch it on sale, then add another Star…
