The ASUS Lumina OLED displays are also Dolby Vision certified, Pantone Validated and have a cinema-grade 100% DCI-P3 color gamut to ensure accurate color rendering, while also featuring DisplayHDR True Black 500 certified.

Additionally, the touchscreens support high-precision stylus input using the optional 4096 pressure-level ASUS Pen, and the built-in ScreenXpert software that allows for smartphone-like multitouch gesture operation.

Moreover, the rechargeable keyboard is detachable, allowing full use of the visual workspace or being placed on the lower display for a traditional clamshell laptop experience.

Furthermore, the laptop is said to balance productivity and play with the utilization of up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor with an integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) for AI acceleration, 32 GB of LPDDR5x memory, 1 TB PCIe 4.0 SSD, a long-lifespan 75 Wh battery, and a Harman Kardon-certified Dolby Atmos audio system.
