This is an excellent little laptop. The screen is vibrant and of great visual quality. The build feels strong for such a light and elegant thin laptop. Very powerful and fast. An excellent device for traveling business person.

The ASUS Zenbook S14 is an awesome laptop—sleek, elegant, and very powerful. It has an excellent display and sound, and it’s impressively light and thin. I love it and I’m really happy I got it at a discount

Excellent power in a one of a kind design never seen on a small Laptop. Screen dimension-bezel designs is minimal. Therefore, the 14” screen size is definitely not something to pass over. Battery power is nice, build itself is sturdy yet flexible. Fast and smooth.

I was between this device, the S16, and a regular Zenbook as my next big laptop purchase and while the S16 arguably offered a little more power, for my use case which involves light gaming, lots of Microsoft 365 (powerpoint/excel/word) and Chrome browsing, this S14 more than fits the bill. The big pros for me and why I ultimately decided to stick with the S14 over S16 was the incredible portability. I know both the S14 are incredibly slim/lightweight, but the S14's center of gravity and chassis makes this feel absurdly light when carrying around, to the point that now trying to handle almost any other laptop feels like an absolute slog.
The display itself is incredible as expected but I believe the most underrated feature here is the sound system which for such a slim laptop, blew every other laptop bar maybe Apple's wares out of the water, including the S16. I don't know what it is about the Dolby atmos in the S14, but it pushes these speakers to punch well above their weight class, again factoring in how obscenely slim this thing is. Overall highly recommend.

For its weight, this is a very capable and sturdy laptop. It seems to run a bit hot, and the touchpad sometimes acts up, but otherwise I’m happy with the machine itself. Setup and associated documentation leaves a lot to be desired, however. It requires the user to select several settings without any explanation of the implications of those choices, or how to go about changing them is the user isn’t happy with the initial decision.

Very good laptop. I like the form factor, the light weight and the feel of the case. I need a windows laptop, and this is the closest to my beloved MacBook Pro that was in my price range. Not great multitasker, Excel and Tableau together can cause the machine to lag.

Never had an ASUS before. Very happy with this device. It's lightweight, excellent screen, great keyboard with backlighting. Replaced my desktop with this. Has HDMI for second monitor. Internal speakers not so great, but that is to be expected. It checked all the boxes.

I made a snap decision to buy this model in the final minutes of 2025 so I could include it in expenses for that tax year. I based my decision on a search for the Windows laptop that most closely replicates the experience of using a Macbook Pro. This was one of the best purchase decisions I've ever made; it is in fact VERY much like using a Macbook without being trapped in Apple's irritating walled garden. It's very smooth, intuitive, and fast. So glad I bought it! My only complaint is that right-click functionality is a bit tricky sometimes. I suspect it may be user error but yeah ... a little easier right-click interface would make it basically perfect. Five stars nevertheless.

Screen is very sharp. Keyboard has a good feel with rebound. Weight is very light for the power of it. There is not much bloat ware loaded onto the computer like other brands making it easy to setup amd get it where i want it.

I bought this item on 5/30/2025. So i have been using it for 2+ weeks. So far it's been all positive. I really like it. It is significantly smaller and light than my old 14" Dell. It feels very well built, very fast and quiet.

The computer is nice regarding hardware, battery life, and it's lightweight. The operation system with the AI integration is not there yet, it constantly uses significant amount of resources in the background doing some "AI optimization" thing. If you open stuff for the first time or do something he is not used to the AI goes into overdrive... I also don't like the OLED screen but that's a matter of taste I guess. It's just too reflecting for me, so in a highly lit office, where I used it most, it's difficult to see anything because of light reflecting - almost like a mirror, even on highest brightness.

Pros: oled screen, fast charging, ports, outer shell, 120hz, minimal fan noise battery life; cons: reflective screen, battery life is ok when doing minimal gaming (old school RuneScape), Asus bloatware, speakers are kinda trash at this price.

Slim laptop that is definitely a choice over the macbook. The specs are something perfect for a college student in any IT space. I use it all the time the OLED screen is breath taking and paired with the 3K display makes an awesome combo. If someone is to purchase they will not be disappointed, fans are incredibly quiet and MAKE SURE download G-Helper!! I am a student and this laptop is perfect, light, compatible, and sleek. My friends have given me compliments because of the laptop and thats a +!!

This laptop is awesome, especially with this configuration, I have thrown AutoCAD, AI/ML, video editing, etc. and it hasn't even broken a sweat. Planning to drop some AAA games on this week to see how it preforms. My only complaint is lack of anyone (BB or Asus Tech Support) that can tell me what accessories are supposed to be included. I have seen unboxing videos with sleeves, ethernet to USB-C adapters, and stylus. When I opened the box I got laptop and charging brick, that's it. Neither site or Customer support can tell me what should be included. For $1599 MSRP, it should all be included!

The ASUS Zenbook 14 inch is a great fir for me. So far, I have not encountered any problems, and it works perfectly. The screen is immaculate. One thing that I really like from this laptop is that it has facial recognition which logs you in very quickly the moment you turn on your laptop. Something else that I like from this laptop is the way everything looks on the screen. Overall, would recommend. (bought when it was at a discount)
