Customer Ratings & Reviews

After spending a week with the new ASUS Zenbook A14 Copilot+ PC can confidently say this is one of the most well-rounded Windows laptops I’ve used in a long time. It’s a perfect balance of battery life, portability and performance. The biggest headline here is the battery life—it’s phenomenal. Ive been using this laptop for a week and im getting around 20 hours of use on a full charge. My typical workloads consist of web browsing, office apps, streaming music, emails. I haven’t adjust with power the settings or battery saver modes—just plug and go. This is one of the first laptop I’ve used where I didn’t need to find a charger during the day. The chassis is light but solid—easy to carry around all day, but it doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy. The Zabriskie Beige color (I don’t know where they get the names of the color) gives it a clean, modern look that stands out. (which I like, different from black or gray) Something you cant tell online is the surface material: it’s different from your typical aluminum or plastic. Not too smooth, not too rough—it just feels really nice to rest your hands on. Too me its like touching an outdoor tennis or basketball court but not too rough. Good balance between smooth and texture. The FHD+ OLED display is vibrant and crisp, with great contrast and deep blacks. Perfect for streaming, photo viewing, or just making everyday work feel premium. The keyboard is firm, responsive, and comfortable to type on. My hands are about average size I guess. It has just the right amount of feedback and travel. With the Snapdragon X Plus chip, everything feels quick and snappy. Little worried about compatibility on some software but I haven’t run into that issue yet. It's not a gaming laptop or a heavy-duty content creation machine, but for office work, multitasking, and general use, it’s more than capable. And it stays cool and quiet throughout. As a Copilot+ PC, its suppose to have AI features. I haven’t used it as much but going to see how it will make my life easier. If you’re looking for an ultra-portable laptop with standout battery life, a solid feel, and a premium screen, the Zenbook A14 is a smart pick. ASUS nailed the basics, and added just enough thoughtful design touches to make this laptop feel special.

We had the best experience purchasing this laptop!

The computer was cool at first, but 2 days before a month in; the touchpad stopped working randomly (not the f key that disables the touchpad) and the day after (right now) it won’t turn on.

So far so good I just have to remember it’s not touch screen

I really wanted to like the ASUS Zenbook A14, but my experience has been nothing but frustrating. The biggest problem is the battery completely dying after only a few months of use. The laptop went from having decent battery life to not holding a charge at all, and I ended up having to replace the battery way earlier than I should’ve. For a product in this price range, that’s unacceptable. Outside of that, the laptop is lightweight and looks nice, but none of that matters if the thing can’t even stay powered on reliably. A laptop is supposed to last, not fall apart after a short time. Overall, I’d give this a 1 out of 5. I can’t recommend it to anyone. There are better options out there that won’t have you replacing parts months after buying it.

Seemed like a decent laptop for the small amount off time i had it only thing i dont like is brand new from the box it had stains/marks on it dont find that accepted for a new product at its price

The touchscreen and mouse keep locking up so I had to purchase another mouse to finish the job I was working on. Touchscreen worked well this morning, but it is not working now.

Laptop was nice but has fo return because of no sound

The display is AWFUL! There is no way in this or any other universe in which this thing is 1920x1200; my old laptop, which is 780, is sharper than this. The letters are not sharp at all and I can see each pixel. One review mentioned small letters were a problem, but it's not only small letters, it's everything. Also, there are these stain-looking marks all over the laptop, like it was used. Unfortunately, due to travel I'm past the return window so I'll have to keep this thing, but I am sorely disappointed.

pretty, light weight, but I returned it because I missed having touchscreen. Also, the letters and numbers on keyboard are hard to read

This product is great, but it's not suitable for my job.

I was doing some research on a notebook PC that feels like, well, a notebook. There's so many options when you use that search term, though very few are actually that portable. I got to the point I was thinking of just hedging my bet and going with a nice Chromebook since the kids use them all day for school and they're light and portable. Thankfully, I came upon this Asus Zenbook A14 notebook! It's an actual notebook in both size and weight, not to mention the rounded corners and soft, smooth feel. Even the color made you think less tech and more book-like as if it would blend in with your folders. I've owned a Zenbook for over 4 yrs now and it's my go-to for most basic tasks like surfing, emails, or social. But this one has some really smart tech with your own Copilot AI button for whenever access to your most pressing questions. The screen, being OLED, is incredibly sharp and efficient, even though it's only FHD+ (1920x1200) yet taller than my old model. This is the first time I get a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset on a PC; I'm familiar with they're stellar performance on my Android phones, so I thought it was worth the gamble. I'm pleasantly surprised it handles itself quite well and runs very efficient compared to your typical Ultra core or Ryzen cores. I wouldn't go playing intense gaming apps on it (quite lagging) but it gets the job done for the most part. I've got a full-sized keyboard with 3 step backlighting and a large trackpad with edge shortcuts for volume and display brightness (if you're lazy). There's 2 Thunderbolt-4 ports, an HDMI 2.1, and headphone jack on the left side, and a lonely usb-A 3.2 on the right. Speakers from Harman Kardon do a great job simulating surround sound and get plenty loud, unless you're suspending it in the air. I would've liked the ease of expandability of a microSD-XC slot as I had on my previous Zenbook rather than spending more for a 1TB+ drive. The AI-sense camera identified my face only once of the 5 times I've used it, suggesting it may not be good at certain light levels. You can't go wrong with this Zenbook for your everyday needs, unless you're a gamer. It's very light and sturdy, feels premium and the battery lasts all week (3+ hrs/day, currently at 36%). You'd be hard pressed to find a more notebook-y laptop than this.

This laptop has many wonderful features but let me start with the best one...The Sand Beige color of this laptop is outstanding and is unlike any other color option that I have seen for a piece of tech. It is pretty spectacular. The unboxing of the device was a premium unboxing for a windows computer and was package very well. Ever since Microsoft released the Copilot + PC I have been intrigued by these devices and like others, this Asus is fantastic. It has a projected battery life of 32 hours which is incredible for travel. From my use case, which has generally been email, power point and internet surfing, I have only had to charge the device one or two times. It noticeably last all day. The Built in copilot AI is also a wonderful thing and I like the ease in which you can interact with it. The device is very light and weighs close to 1000 grams and its very light. It is mostly due to the new Ceramic / Aluminum hybrid that is ASUS proprietary mixture. It is both lightweight and durable. This is a good trend and I am glad that ASUS is leading it. The snapdragon processor is also very reliable and very fast for my day to day needs. I am really glad with this product and highly recommend it.

The Asus Zenbook A14 Laptop comes nicely packaged. It comes with a printed User Guide but there are minimal instructions in the booklet. I needed to review the keyboard layout since I could not find the power button. It does tell you how to charge the laptop, along with a diagram. Once charged, I then got it turned on. The laptop is very lightweight and easy to hold. You can sit with it on your lap for long periods of time and unlike older devices, it does not get hot. The display screen colors are beautiful. The keyboard is very nice and many of the controls are in the function keys and I suddenly found one the lights up the keyboard since they are hard to see in soft lighting in the evening. This versions of brightness stays on for several minutes and then shuts off which I am sure helps to preserve the battery. Then I found the key that showed me how to create a Asus account. I mainly use an Apple IPad so I tend to revert to touching the screen rather than using the mouse so I find it frustrating to use a device that has a screen that doesn’t respond to touch. The mouse pad also seems slow so adding an external mouse may help. Overall, this is a nice compact laptop and the battery life seems very good since I inadvertently left it on for 2 days and it was still charged.

The OLED screen is simply beautiful. The colors are pure and the blacks are very dark. It’s also very lightweight. The battery life is exceptional.The half terabyte SSD is adequate as a main drive. This is my first Snapdragon CPU (8 cores so fewer lags) and it seems quite fast when web browsing and O365 use. The touchpad is very responsive. One downside, the speakers are “meh”. The sound seems to come mostly from the left side. The addition of a neural processor means that it’s more than Copilot-ready, though honestly I couldn’t tell the difference between copilot’s responsiveness with the neural processor compared to another laptop without the accelerator. The specs on the Pluton security processor are good and the design seems sound, but time will tell. Security features take time to bake. The human presence sensor is a nice touch as it should prevent the screen from shutting off when watching a movie, but I didn’t test that. That feature, together with the face recognition are a nice pairing. All in all, this is a very nice laptop for the price with a lot of high end features. If your use is mostly web and Office-based, this is ideal. It is, however, not a gaming laptop.

The store manager Michael is the worst human on planet earth.

Loved the small size but it was too complicated for me. Nothing was intuitive. Word and excel were highly unstable.

Don't buy anything used here. I used pc once, tried to use today nothing but blue screens. Wont even let me reset. Go figure it's 7 days past return window.

This ASUS Zenbook A14 replaces a 16” laptop I’ve had for about four years. My old laptop and Android phone are the two most used devices in my tech arsenal, so the A14 is going to get a good workout. I wasn’t sure if the A14’s smaller 14” screen size was going to be a problem for me having used a larger screen for years, but thus far it has been an easy transition. In fact, the A14 has been a nice change in general. From a weight perspective, the A14 is incredibly light weight and has been like playing with a kid’s toy. I never feel like I’m going to drop the unit, plus it fits in my backpack with plenty of room to spare. Even the power brick is more compact than my old laptop. The A14 is also runs much cooler than I’m used to. The older one put out so much heat that sitting it on my lap felt like I was burning my skin. The A14 does put out some heat when plugged in but it’s minor in comparison. The keyboard on the A14 has a good tactile feel to it, and its smaller form factor has been a non-issue. Getting the A14 set up and running was uneventful. The only issue I had was getting my BT mouse working. It wasn’t a huge issue but was somewhat problematic because I kept touching the screen forgetting that it’s not a touch-screen monitor. I know, I know. But since I never ever used the mouse pad on my older unit, I had to fumble around with the A14’s mouse pad until I remembered what I was doing. Not a big issue, for sure. Getting the A14 set up and running was a simple process as it walked me through all the necessary steps. Other than having to enter my credentials for many apps, it was a breeze. Before I forget, the A14 is outfitted with the following: • Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus processor, 8 cores • 16gb Ram • 2 USB-type C charging ports • 1 HDMI 2.1 Thunderbolt 4 • 512 GB solid State Drive. Note that available storage space dropped after getting everything installed and configured, close to 100gb was used. • Battery life can be up to 32 hrs • Comes with Windows 11 Home Edition • It also has a headphone jack for wired headphones • It supports WiFi and Bluetooth • It also supports facial recognition when logging in I have the battery saver turned on, so it only charges to 80% full capacity versus 100%. You can change this to 100% easily. I was on the A14 for hours and still found adequate battery remaining. As noted above, it has a claimed battery of up to 32 hours. Since receiving the A14, I have decided to put my old laptop to rest. I may have to look into donating it to a worthy cause. Thus far, I’ve used the A14 for a number of different tasks. Included are the following: • Word processing • Youtube videos • Spreadsheets • Gmail • Calendaring I’ve also been using CoPilot a ton more and the A14 has been impressive in its responsiveness handling these queries. Heck, I’m even using CoPilot to do day-to-day math calculations. I’m very pleased with this ZenBook. As such, I’m rating the Asus ZenBook A14 5-stars.

I just purchased it so this review is not comprehensive but I have some initial thoughts about it. It's well packaged and presented. The design, chassis material, oled screen and weight makes it seem premium. It has a good selection of i/o ports. I'm trusting that the arm architecture won't be a challenge with the mostly basic business and minimal creative work I'll use it for. It's very fast. So far I'm really liking it. Two things I'm not happy with. When I took the computer out of the box there were black smudges around the keyboard. They wouldn't come off with mild cleaners so I think they're permanent. It's really not a big deal but it's disappointing Asus doesn't have better qc. The other issue is the computer isn't a touchscreen. I bought it on sale and it's a great computer at that price but if I'd paid the regular price I think I would have considered returning it for not having a touchscreen.
