ASUS Malaysia unveiled the all-new ZenBook 13 (UX325) and ZenBook 14 (UX425), two new-generation 13.3-inch and 14-inch ultraportable laptops in the ZenBook Classic series. Thinner than ever, the ZenBook 13 is a mere 1.07kg and both are just 13.9mm thin, while still packing comprehensive I/O capabilities, including full-size HDMI and USB Type-A ports in addition to Thunderbolt 3 USB-C and a microSD card reader.
Four-sided NanoEdge displays offer a 90% screen-to-body ratio for immersive visuals. The user experience is also fully updated, featuring ASUS NumberPad 2.0, up to 22 hours battery life, a new edge-to-edge keyboard design, ErgoLift hinge mechanisms, and IR cameras for fast face-recognition. ZenBook 13 and 14 are available in two sophisticated new colors, Pine Grey and Lilac Mist.
Powered by the latest 10th Generation Intel Core processors with 8 GB RAM, the ASUS ZenBook 13 and ZenBook 14 make light work of multitasking, productivity and entertainment. It also features 512GB PCIe 3.0 x4 SSDs and the latest WiFi 6 (802.11ax) to round off the specification for a superb all-round performance.
Timeless beauty, effortless portability
Pick either the ultralight 1.07kg ZenBook 13, or have a larger screen on the ZenBook 14. At just 13.9mm thin with compact and elegant all-metal chassis, these ZenBooks are meant for ultra portability. You don’t need to worry when you’re on the go with up to 22 hours battery life on a single charge. In either a glossy Pine Gray or luxurious Lilac Mist, you can still show off your style even as you move from place to place.
Unrivaled Full I/O Ports
Ultrathin doesn’t stop the ZenBook 13 and 14 to have uncompromised I/O capabilities, still including full-size HDMI and USB Type-A ports, two high-speed Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports, and a microSD card reader for easy mobile data transfer unlike any other laptop of this design.
The two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports — with their convenient any-way-up connectors — support fast charging, up to two 4K UHD external displays for an expanded visual workspace, and up to 40 Gbps data speeds for ultrafast file transfers.
ZenBook 13 and 14 also support the new ASUS USB-C Easy Charge feature, which allows them to be conveniently charged from a wide range of standard USB-C chargers. USB-C Easy Charge allows users can enjoy ultrafast charging with any USB-C Power Delivery-certified charger, such as the bundled 65-watt charger, or charge at slower rates when wall sockets are unavailable using airline chargers, portable chargers or power banks. USB-C Easy Charge takes the frustration out of long journeys or travel in locations with limited mains power.
Ergonomic design
ZenBook 13 and ZenBook 14 have bright and clear four-sided NanoEdge displays, with slim bezels that create an 90% screen-to-body ratio for a more immersive viewing experience. An optional low-power 1-watt display delivers an incredible 450 nits of brightness, while maximizing battery life.
The new edge-to-edge ergonomic keyboard design increases the size of the keyboard for a more comfortable typing experience. It also creates space for an extra set of useful function keys at the right-hand side of the keyboard. For maximum typing comfort, the precision-engineered ErgoLift hinge automatically tilts the keyboard to the optimum typing angle when the lid is opened. This action also creates space under the laptop for extra cooling airflow.
For easy data entry, there’s the productivity-enhancing ASUS NumberPad 2.0. This is a dual-function touchpad with an integrated LED-illuminated full-size numeric keypad: simply tapping the icon on the touchpad turns NumberPad on and off. An integrated infrared (IR) camera located on the top bezel makes password-free face login fast and easy with Windows Hello. It also works in dim lighting conditions, so accessing ZenBook 13 and 14 is easier and faster than ever in any environment.
Superb performance
The ASUS ZenBook 13 and ZenBook 14 harness the power of the latest 10th Generation Intel Core processors — all the way up to the Core i7 series. These processors deliver faster, smoother and more responsive performance than the previous generation, and they’re teamed with 8 GB of high-speed RAM to help users blitz through daily tasks.
The laptops also have some of the fastest solid-state storage available, with up to 512GB PCIe 3.0 x4 SSDs that ensure fast boot times and near-instant app loading. With the latest WiFi 6 (802.11ax) users can enjoy wireless speeds that are up to 3X faster than WiFi 5, with 4X more network capacity and up to 75% lower latency.
Whether working, creating, or simply enjoying entertainment, the new ZenBook 13 and 14 make everything effortless.
MIL-STD 810G Military-grade Reliability
The ASUS ZenBook 13 and ZenBook 14 have been tested to meet the ultra-demanding MIL-STD-810G U.S. military standard for reliability and durability. Tests consisted of a punishing regime designed to ensure survival in harsh environments, and included power-on drop tests and operation at extremes of altitude and temperature. The ZenBook UX325/UX425 have also passed ASUS laptop stress tests that far exceed the standards set by the industry.
