Customer Ratings & Reviews

The computer arrived with stains and scratches that can't be removed. It's not brand new (open box); it's used. In fact, setting it up was difficult because it initially asked for an email and wasn't connected to Wi-Fi. It works fine. I don't recommend buying these "open box" items unless you go to the store and see them. I'm disappointed.

The Asus - Zenbook A14 14” FHD+ OLED Laptop PC with Copilot is an awesome little PC that is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon XPlus and has 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. This is my first jump into the Qulacom-powered laptops and I really wanted to get my hands on one because they utilize the ARM architecture, the same one used in our mobile phones and tablets, but designed for the added utility and demands from a Laptop. I have been using this Laptop for a little while now and the battery life is second to none. The ARM chips that Qualcomm produces are very efficient compared to the X-86 processors that have been used for years in laptops and Desktops. I have always wanted a Laptop with better battery life and the question I always had with these Qualcomm chips is will they perform well enough for my needs? Well, the answer is yes and I even run a 27” 4K monitor with this little gem and have had no issues even while watching 4K video with it. The Asus Zenbook A14 is a very lightweight and very portable laptop with great battery life. That makes this laptop the Ultimate travel companion and a laptop you can use on the go without having to worry about an outlet being nearby. Another concern I had was Windows software compatibility, yet thus far, I have not run into a single issue with it not working for me. The Zenbook A14 in Zabriskie Beige looks very nice and has a backlit keyboard. I was a little concerned that I would not like the color, but it is very unique and quite attractive. The OLED screen on the A14 is also very nice and gets plenty bright while being slightly higher than 1080p it has plenty of pixels to look fantastic for a 14” Laptop. Honestly just looking at it it is so compact it seems like a 12” laptop to me but it is indeed a 14” which is a testament to the engineering prowess Asus put into this device. The Zenbook A14 also has just the right amount of ports to make working with it easy as well. With two USB-C/Thunderbolt ports, one USB Type A 3.2 and an HDMI 2.1 port. One cool thing to Note that I discovered is that if you plug in a monitor using the USB-C/Thunderbolt port using the provided cable it will send your display signal through and the power going to the monitor will come out through your Display connection and charge the Zenbook A14 at the same time leaving your other USB-C /Thunderbolt port free. Pretty cool stuff right there! This is my new favorite compact, portable and lightweight travel companion. I think it is well worth the money, especially on sale and is definitely a good choice for a casual user.

TL;DR: SETUP: It takes some time, like all Windows computers, but follow the onscreen directions, connect to a power supply, and to Wi-Fi. USE: It works well. I like the Copilot integration. USABILITY: It’s a Windows laptop with some Zen and a clear screen. It’s also very light. OVERALL: It works well, battery life is good, it’s lightweight, it uses the full 14” of screen very well, and so far, it’s minimalistic and durable. REVIEW: The unboxing is very Zen…and very appropriate to the name ASUS Zenbook. The outer box contains the laptop in a thick cardboard box that’s well protected, as well as the USB-C charger. Inside the Zenbook box is a postcard and additional information, warranty, etc. It’s a REALLY NICE unboxing experience. Very Apple-like, but maybe even a shade bit nicer (and Apple is always special). The actual, physical laptop feels very durable. The keys have a full “suspension feel” to them, and it almost feels like an external keyboard. The screen is very nice and, comparing to Apple, has a very similar feel in overall quality and nearly in brightness. I like that it has facial recognition, as well. That makes it easier to log on and keep the screen on while using and dim or go into standby when not. Battery life seems good in my tests. I haven’t noticed it lagging in my usage so far (at home and in the car). I have used Word and some smaller Excel files (I haven’t needed to use anything very large since getting the Zenbook). I haven’t used PowerPoint yet. I wish it would have the built-in camera cover, like they have on their Chromebooks, but that’s a minor gripe. As for the overall operating system, it’s very Windows 11. That’s to say good, if you like Windows. I like it, so I’m happy with it. This is a solid laptop that will do most anything you want, is lightweight (which makes it ever more portable). I really like it. It seems like it will be a reliable companion that will give me several years of solid use.

The new ZenBook A14 powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon X CPU is a great new Ultrabook from Asus. The Zabriskie Beige color is elegant with a textured feel to the entire case it looks and feels great. The laptop case is made from a lightweight alloy of Ceramic, Aluminum and Magnesium (Ceraluminum) makes this laptop lightweight and strong, weighing only 2.4 lb. The Qualcomm Snapdragon X processor runs Windows 11 well when paired with the 512 GB PCIE 4.0 SSD and 16 GB LPDDR5X ram. The 1080p camera includes IR and face recognition with windows hello was very fast and worked flawlessly. The laptop has a full size HDMI 2.1 port 2 USB C gen 3.2ports and 1 USB A gen 3.1 port and one audio jack. The laptop includes WiFi 6e and Bluetooth 5.3. connectivity A 65w charger is included charging is done through one of the USB C ports. This laptop has an advertised battery life of 32 hours. I was able to use it full time for three 8 hr days and one evening before charging doing a combination of web browsing, streaming and word processing. The OLED screen has good vibrant colors and the Qualcomm Arduino graphics was great for streaming and work activities. The 16:10 format with 1900 x 1200 with 600 nit max and HDR capable make it great for streaming or watching video. It is 60 hz so there is some compromise to keep the cost down but I did not notice any issues. The keyboard has a perfect spacing and the keys have just the right travel and keypress pressure to make this a great for typing. The touchpad is fantastic with integrated controls for video playback by swiping left or right across the top, screen brightness along the right side and audio volume along the left side Asus has really engineered theses well. The sound is good, tuned by Harmon Kardon. It is good for such a slim laptop but the bass is lacking but not absent. It has Dolby Atmos and the tuning really is good. I was really surprised by the sound this laptop can put out given its size. Overall this is an excellent ultrabook and does everything you need it to for work or school and will last long past a normal workday without a charge. It is lightweight perfect for a backpack or briefcase with a bright clear display making it perfect for working or entertainment in all lighting conditions. This is a Copilot PC so it includes Ai goodies like Recall and Cocreator. Copilot can be activated with the dedicated key on the right of the spacebar. The Ai can answer questions, take dictation, do research among other things. I really like this laptop, it may become my favorite for travel. I love the beige color and surface, it does not show fingerprints. Asus has a winner with this Qualcomm Snapdragon X powered laptop!

I’ve been using the Asus Zenbook A14 for about a week now, and in that time, I’ve put this little laptop through the ringer just for you. For as long as I can remember, Windows machines were either Intel or AMD-based, and you are likely familiar with these processors in your existing laptop or desktop. Now, Windows runs on ARM, the same type of processors that your phone and Apple M series laptops use. They are power-efficient processors that get the job done. This is the first iteration of a Windows on ARM laptop running on the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus processor, and I was quite excited to get my hands dirty. Let's start with the basics. Windows on ARM is new, so there should be some tempered expectations. My original goal was to see if the Windows on ARM ecosystem had enough that I could live with an ARM Windows laptop. The short answer is yes, an enthusiastic yes. Outright, I’ll say if you are looking to play video games or use esoteric software, be prepared to be disappointed. While Microsoft does a great job building in a translation layer, ultimately, all programs for Windows would also have to be compiled for ARM. The great thing is that almost all the programs you would normally use today are available for ARM. About 90% of the apps I use are available for Windows on ARM, which is a relief. Having seen what Apple went through the two times they changed processors, I’ll say the Microsoft experience is a tad bit smoother. Most programs you would use are available in the Microsoft Store app, and I understand that Microsoft is installing the ARM version of a given software if available. So what if you don't have an ARM version of a particular software, will it run? Well, that’s a yes or no question. Generally, any programs that require specialized drivers or hardware probes will not work, including a vast majority of games, and specific hardware with older software drivers, like printers and scanners. Most legacy software runs a tad bit slower. There is a marked slower response from non-ARM native applications when loading, and they tend to use more RAM. The good thing is that this laptop does come with 16 gb of RAM. Microsoft actually has a pretty detailed support page on what software is compatible with your new laptop. Head on over to worksonwoa.com, which is listed on Microsoft’s support page, for a list of compatible software. There is a similarly comprehensive list on windowsonarm.org. For the most part, if you aren't an extreme bell curve user, this Windows on ARM will meet your needs. So, how is it to live with? After a week of carrying to work, the coffee shop, and the local pub, I have concluded that this laptop is excellent! First, the laptop's weight of less than 2.5 lb is very telling in how you carry it. The screen is amazingly clear, the touchpad and keyboard are fantastic, and the webcam supports Windows Hello. It reminds me of a MacBook Air, but with a bigger, clearer screen. The battery life on the laptop is fantastic. I went almost 18 hours between charges on a multi-day use. Depending on what you are doing and what brightness level your screen is at, you can probably get to the 32-hour battery life that Asus claims this laptop can do. The speakers on the laptop are a bit tinny for my liking, but they are clear and work well. The wifi chip on the laptop is fantastic, with great range and pickup. So what is the bad on this? Well, in my extended testing, there were a few gotcha’s that I ran into. First off, like I said, not all software is compatible. I found that a few of my legacy programs would not run, and my DVD burner would not be recognised. Qualcomm, which makes the Snapdragon X Plus processor, claims the processor to be 8-threaded, but time and time again, I found it running only six cores out of the eight at 50% when doing critical burn-in testing. The CPU throttles when it gets warm, and the ‘whisper’ mode of the fan needs to be bumped up to performance mode to increase performance. This did not solve the problem of CPU throttling every time, but it did make the laptop more snappy. I never figured out why it did that, but that is not something most users would even find to be an issue. If you weren't looking, you’d think the laptop is very speedy, and yes, it is, just not as fast as the competing M4-based MacBooks. So, where do I stand on this? Do I love it? YES! This has replaced my travel laptop. With summer coming, a lighter laptop goes a long way in making me happy. The laptop is easy to live with, and I love that it's Windows. My previous travel laptop was a Chromebook, which isn't bad but has limitations. Running Windows gives me a familiar experience without the added heft. ARM on Windows shows promise. As the first commercial iteration of an ARM laptop, this is great. I know I’ve seen some other ARM-based servers for the enterprise market, but this was the first consumer-level device that runs ARM on Windows that I have seen on the market. Pros: Battery Life - pushed 18+ hours easily Amazingly clear OLED screen Weight and feel of the laptop Cons Lacks processing power, no comparison to the M4 chip, which is way faster Thermal throttles badly for high CPU activities, needs to set the fan to a higher setting Slow to load and run non-ARM native apps Wish it came with a laptop sleeve No gaming, limited driver issues due to lack of ARM support.

My first impressions of the ASUS ZenBook A14 are extremely positive. To start, the packaging was very well done and easy to open. The laptop was well protected in the box which was inside of another box that added to the security and overall aesthetics while opening it up. The laptop itself is a nice beige color made of a sleek material known as Ceraluminium that is scratch resistant and extremely lightweight allowing for the laptop itself to be under 2½ pounds of total weight. When lying flat on the table, opening the top cover up was easy and without any drag. At a first glance you see a full-size keyboard with a top F-key bar for controlling various settings from volume to brightness, the camera, microphone and others. Additionally, it is backlit with multiple brightness settings including off to conserve battery life. As you’d expect, there is a touchpad, but this one is multifunctional as you can drag your finger across the top or sides to control screen brightness, volume, and open the built in ASUS “ScreenXpert” settings menu. It has a 14-inch OLED HD display capable of 1920x1200 resolution. There is a 1080P front facing camera with microphone for video calls and recording. Using AI and the camera, the laptop is aware of when you walk away and will lock on its own but, it also wakes when you come back. I like this feature as it saves battery but also increases security for me if I happen to forget to lock the screen. The specifications of this ZenBook are very good. It has a 3.4 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus processor which is built to take advantage of various AI capabilities and is capable of 45 TOPS (Trillions of Operations per Second). There is an integrated Qualcomm Adreno graphics card, 16 GB of ram (which is not upgradable), a 512 GB solid state hard drive, along with wireless that has the newer 6E AX standard which is backward compatible. It claims to have a 32 hour battery life and I have no reason to doubt that based on my initial usage. Additionally, there are two Dolby Atmos speakers for sound, which are pretty good for the size of the device. For external connectivity, there is one full-size HDMI port, two Thunderbolt 4 / USB-C 40GB ports, one USB-A port and a headphone jack. Using the HDMI and USB-C ports you can connect up to three monitors which can be very handy for editing videos and photos, working on spreadsheets, or just to dedicate a certain application to a specific monitor. This ASUS ZenBook is specifically designed to take advantage of AI applications such as Copilot which you can use as your personal assistant when trying to write papers, do research, or work on other projects. Another application Windows now comes with is called “Recall” which allows you to go backward in time, so to speak, in case you want to review something you had just seen or maybe something from a couple of hours ago. Besides AI using the camera to lock and unlock the device, ASUS has also included another application to take advantage of it to help improve your experience and productivity. Called “StoryCube”, this application helps to organize all your media files in various categories, allowing you to go to specific photos and videos using timelines, locations, and people. It will automatically group these elements for you and using its AI will create videos, photo albums and various memories that it sees as similar, maybe from a vacation or other event that it has identified as important in some way. Basically, any combination of descriptions, timing or locations are easily pulled up for viewing and use in projects you may be working on in other common applications. Overall, this laptop is straightforward to use and adjust to. As a business user who occasionally engages in photo and video editing, I find that the Zenbook simplifies these tasks and enhances the experience with its user-friendly interface, AI assistance, and easy to use features.

The most important thing to glean from the reviews of the A14 is that you should set your expectations properly. This is an incredible "personal computer". Depending on what you do for work this is also could be a perfect "work computer". This is not a desktop replacement, this is not something for intense workloads, and probably barely passable to do any intense or professional coding if you sacrifice battery life. This is the laptop you grab when you sit down with your morning coffee. This is the laptop you grab when you remember to pay that bill. This is the laptop you take to class to take notes and doom scroll your favorite sites. This is the laptop you grab on the way out to an offsite meeting. I would venture to say for all of those use cases you're NOT reaching for the charger. Did I mention thing this regularly goes on sale for $599? I didn't even mention the epic screen. This laptops really shines after you've been using it a few weeks. The battery life is so good and I rarely have "charge anxiety" when using it. I was purposely using it until 6-8% battery left during my return period to find that "see this thing sucks" point but it never came. I can go over an hour only losing a 1-2% once its in the most energy efficient mode and when I using it for "personal computing" I'm not frustrated with performance in said energy efficient modes. I will mention that in my experience before I bought this that the ARM thing was annoying and maybe even daunting but we're well into the Windows+ARM era and the software compatibility is caught or catching up. I had to go to the canary version of Discord for ARM support but that's about it. I'm sure the main version will have it soon. If something you need isn't supported on natively on ARM then most likely this isn't the laptop you need in the first place. If I had to gripe about anything it would be the apparent issue with the paint on this new fancy ceraluminum stuff and this terrible copilot+ key they've remove my right ctrl key for. I had to use powertoys to make right atl into right ctrl. :shrug: Pretty much all the windows laptops have them now sadly. I've seen some other reports out of there of "smudge" or issues with the paint around the edge of the device. It definitely looks like a place that the paint didn't cover fully. There are a few on my machine that are small (less than 1/2") and not in a place I would ever look at unless it was on purpose. No amount of scrubbing or cleaning will remove them. It could be that it was a bad batch or something, otherwise the beige has really grown on me and the ceraluminium has excellent fingerprint resistance and feel. Did I even mention how light this thing is? Final note! I was a little miffed this went on sale for $200 cheaper than what I bought if for 1 day after my 15 days passed. I reached out to BB customer service and they said next time buy the Total Membership thing to get more time. I had to laugh at the notion of paying more next time just in case this costs less in the future. Anyways, that's not A14 thing but I would definitely look at this thing really hard when its down to $599. There's probably not a better deal out there.

The first thing that stood out to me was how the ASUS Zenbook A14 feels surprisingly light in my hands. It is probably the lightest laptop I have ever owned. It has a very attractive minimalist aesthetic and is made from a material called Ceraluminum which feels a little bit like a cross between ceramic and plastic. The material has a matte like texture and seems to be very effective at resisting fingerprints and smudges. The ASUS Zenbook A14 is also MIL-STD 810H rated which implies the laptop should also be very durable. It comes packaged with the following items: The ASUS Zenbook A14 laptop itself A 65W USB-C charger Pamphlets Some important specifications Snapdragon X Plus X1P42100 8-Core CPU Qualcomm Adreno X1-45 GPU Qualcomm Hexagon NPU w/ 45 TOPS 1920 x 1200 60Hz OLED screen 16 GB DDR5 Micron Technology MTFDKBA512QGN 512 GB NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD Qualcomm FastConnect 6900 Wi-Fi 6e wireless adapter w/ Bluetooth 1x HDMI 2.1 2x USB 4.0 Gen 3 Type-C with support for display/power delivery (40Gbps) 1x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10Gbps) 1x 3.5mm Combo Audio Jack Battery Life On the first day, I spent about 3 hours watching YouTube while surfing the internet and the battery had 86% left. I then shut down the laptop for the night to see what sort of power drain I can expect after a shut down. The next day, upon turning on the laptop, the battery had 85% charge left. So, power drain after a shut down seems negligible. I then watched YouTube while working on this review, balancing my checkbook with Quicken and surfing the internet for another 3 hours which left the battery with 65% charge. So, for my typical casual usage pattern, I seem to get about 5% power drain for every hour which extrapolates to around 20 hours per charge. That seems really good to me. It means I don’t really have to worry about recharging for a day or two. Of course, this will vary depending on the workload. Media Consumption The OLED display is excellent. Vibrant colors with deep rich blacks and excellent contrast. Text is very crisp and readable. Watching videos and surfing the internet was very pleasurable. The downward firing speakers are okay and a little better than I expected. I usually prefer up-firing speakers because down-firing speakers can be muffled depending on the surface the laptop is sitting on. During my time with it, the sound was very clear, with a decent soundstage, but lacking a little in bass. It’s probably better suited for casual media consumption than for seriously listening to your music collection. Keyboard and Trackpad The built-in keyboard is backlit and feels very comfortable for typing and the trackpad feels very responsive and accurate. When travelling with the laptop, I feel that I can be very productive using the keyboard and trackpad to do any work. When using the laptop at home, I will normally have it docked and use an external keyboard and mouse. Camera The camera is excellent and much better than many laptop cameras I have used in the past. The image quality is very sharp and low light performance is very good. The ASUS Zenbook A14 would make an excellent laptop for video conferencing.. Performance Overall performance was very zippy. I can have multiple tabs on Microsoft Edge, playing a YouTube video in the background, reconciling financial accounts with Quicken, and working on a document in Google Docs all at the same time without any noticeable slowdowns. Compatibility was also very good. For the majority of my time, If I didn’t know the laptop was using an ARM-based SOC, I wouldn’t have suspected anything. While not 100% perfect, many of the x86/x64 applications that I often use (KeePass 2, Quicken, etc.) worked perfectly. Unfortunately, there were also some applications (such as Kofax PaperPort) that I often use that weren't completely compatible. The x86/x64 applications that seem to have the most problems are ones that use specialized low level device drivers. Copilot The ASUS Zenbook A14 is a Copilot+PC with a dedicated NPU capable of providing 45 TOPS for AI. This helps power the Windows Studio Effects in the Camera app that allows you to select effects such as Automatic Framing, Portrait Lighting, Eye Contact, Background Effects (Standard/Portrait Blur) and Creative Effects (Illustrated, Water Color, and Animated). Some of these effects can be useful (i.e. automatic framing, background blurring etc.) but others seem like they are just there for something fun to play around with or to help give us an idea of what might be possible in the future. I haven’t played around much with other Copilot features, but I did ask Copilot to help me write a letter to the county regarding an inspection process for a building that my elderly parents own. I have no past experience with the inspection process but Copilot helped me by providing a good starting point for the letter and from there, I manually tweaked it for my situation. I was very impressed with Copilot in this task and hopefully, I will learn to be able to use and trust Copilot more for any future similar tasks. Summary Overall, I think the ASUS Zenbook A14 is an ideal travel laptop for light productivity use and media consumption. It’s super light and has great battery life making it ideal for remote work. Right now, I can strongly recommend the ASUS Zenbook A14 as a companion Windows device since it isn’t fully compatible with all Windows applications. Current Windows compatibility is very impressive and as developers write more ARM native Windows applications, I can imagine a day when it can become the only Windows machine you need.

The ASUS Zenbook A14 is an absolute game-changer! The 14" FHD+ OLED display is stunning—colors are vibrant, blacks are deep, and everything looks crisp whether I’m streaming movies or working on projects. The Snapdragon X Plus processor with Copilot+ makes multitasking smooth and responsive, and paired with 16GB of RAM, it handles heavy workloads without breaking a sweat. Storage is more than enough with the 512GB SSD, which keeps everything lightning-fast from boot-up to loading apps. I also love how lightweight and portable it is—the Zabriskie Beige finish gives it a premium, stylish look that stands out from the usual gray laptops. Battery life has been excellent, lasting me through long days without constantly hunting for an outlet. Overall, the Zenbook A14 is sleek, powerful, and reliable—perfect for both productivity and entertainment. Highly recommend this laptop to anyone looking for performance and elegance in one package!

I have to say that I really love this ASUS Zenbook A14 14" FHD+ OLED Laptop - Copilot+ PC - Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus - 16GB RAM - 512GB SSD in Zabriskie Beige. Beginning with the appearance, the laptop is a beautiful soft matte finish in beige or putty color with very clean and simple design. Most impressive is how light and solid it feels in the hands. It’s the perfect laptop for sitting on the couch or lying in bed. The bottom consists of two small speaker vents and a large vented screen for cooling. It has a good sound but don’t expect to hear much bass. The cooling vent appears to work well as the laptop runs cool to the touch. The screen is vibrant and sharp with good viewing at all angles despite a gloss finish. The keyboard is comfortable, and the touchpad has a silky paper-like feel that works just as well. The laptop powers up in about 20 seconds and installation out of the stylish box was a breeze. I chose to load this laptop as a completely new system, so I didn’t have to bring across settings, etc. from another computer. The laptop feels snappy and responsive in use. The Snapdragon X Plus cpu makes processing with apps like CoPilot and Paint work smoothly and without hesitation. Cocreator in Paint works quite well, and I was able to quickly generate some artwork featuring a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel chasing butterflies for example. This makes this laptop a graphic powerhouse for casual graphics design. ASUS offers some interesting software like StoryCube for generating a life’s collection of memories using AI. I hope to delve into StoryCube once I get my own media organized and added to the laptop through an external drive. Battery life is incredible…after watching Youtube video for hours, battery life still shows 19 hours remaining. I’ll wrap up by saying I find this ASUS laptop perfect for everyday use when I’m not on my desktop. The 14-inch screen helps to keep the laptop light and portable and the performance makes it a joy to use.

I love this ultraportable laptop. I plan on traveling quite a bit the upcoming year and I was looking for something lightweight. Weighing in at less than 2.5 lbs, the Asus Zenbook comes stacked with a beautiful screen and a premium build. Battery life thus far has been excellent. The speakers sound great and the performance is zippy and perfectly adequate for my needs. The Asus Zenbook is a premium option.

I bought this laptop for $466 via an open box deal and it might be the best electronic deal I've ever snagged. The Bad: The only negative to report is I bought the open box listed as excellent condition and it was not in excellent condition. There were some scuffs around the edge of the keyboard. I would have listed this in fair condition. But for the price I intend on keeping it. Also, this laptop is not touch screen if that matters to you. The Good: This laptop is light as feather, the lightest laptop I've ever held. The battery will last all day. I don't even need to carry a charger. The 14" OLED screen is perfect for me. It's bright, perfect size for portability and nice for watching movies or YouTube videos in bed. The keyboard feels clicky and responsive, I find it enjoyable to use. I was between this and a Macbook Air and decided to go with the Asus A14. I plan on using remote software to remote into my Mac Mini so I have the best of both worlds. Macbooks with similar specs would cost $850+. I would have paid much more for it and still been happy. My uses are relatively basic, web browsing, email, cloud based LLM, videos. I do not push this machine other than having many browser tabs open (which it handles fine) so if you have more demanding needs I cannot speak to its capability for that. I've read about the differences of the ARM processor, but it has not disappointed me at all. In fact it is lightning fast for my needs. I feel the Asus Zenbook A14 redefined what a laptop can and should be. I highly recommend for most people!

Love my new ASUS Zenbook A14! It’s super light, fast, and perfect for everyday tasks. The screen is sharp, the battery lasts long, and the design is beautiful. Great value for the price — highly recommended!

Love this laptop no issues at all. Fast. Lightweight. Portable. Great battery life. Highly recommend this product.

Overall this is a great travel laptop. It’s light, great battery life, beautiful screen, and the materials used on the case are light and strong. Asus makes great laptops; little bloatware and usually ready to go out of the box. The snapdragon processor has worked great so far with no compatibility issues so far The only cons I found is the touchpad is a little non intuitive with the extra functions via gestures and it’s a bit light when using it to click (vs the amazing MacBook feel).

This laptop has so many things going for it. It’s thin and light with a high quality OLED display and outstanding battery life. The snapdragon processor is super efficient, but runs on Windows ARM, which is still maturing. Some applications/games run poorly and crash, or won’t open at all. So look into Windows ARM before purchasing. Besides that, it is a fantastic product and highly recommended when on sale for $600-$700.

Very good battery life. Fast. Very light. Does what I want it to. The only setback for me are the speakers. They don't get very loud, but not a dealbreaker. Can always use external speakers if need be. Battery life is around 12 hours if you are on the Net constantly, but aren't using internal speakers to listen to Youtube videos. If you are not on WiFi, have Speakers off, on Airplane mode, you can get to 20 hours battery life. Great OLED display. Non-touch.

I’ve had the Asus Zenbook A14 for a few weeks now and I’m blown away. It’s super light—feels like nothing in my bag—and the OLED screen is gorgeous for movies and work. The battery easily lasts me through two full days of use, which is insane. Performance is smooth for everyday tasks, though it’s not a gaming machine. Easily the best laptop I’ve owned for travel and productivity.

Honestly great, very long battery life, very fast, charges quickly, screen is amazing, webcam looks very good. Very light and portable but built very well. You just aren’t going to be playing many games on it if that’s what you are looking for.
