PLASMA-CERAMIZATION COATING

Eco-friendly ceramic-like finish

The Sandstone Beige finish uses a brand-new plasma ceramization technique⁵ to create a ceramic-like coating with a 8H hardness⁶ that shuns fingerprints and is resistant to fading and wear. This eco-friendly process is halogen free and generates low toxic emissions, protecting the aluminum with less environmental impact.

The visual appearance of OLED displays may change over the product’s lifetime. This is expected behavior that can include image persistence or burn-in, where the display shows a faint remnant of an image even after a new image appears on the screen. This tends to occur only in extreme use cases, such as when a static, high-contrast image is continuously displayed for prolonged periods of time. ASUS laptops with an OLED display minimize this risk by setting Windows’s Dark mode as default, as well as shortening the idle time before the screen is turned off — both on mains (AC) and battery (DC) power. This dual approach minimizes the potential for burn-in to maximize the lifespan of your OLED display lifespan, and also reduces unnecessary power draw for optimal battery life. We also recommended adjust the brightness of your OLED display to complement the ambient lighting in your environment, rather than keeping the screen at maximum brightness at all times. You should also ensure that you have an animated, dark-background screensaver enabled in the Windows Settings tool.
Weight might vary by specifications.
ASUS Pen 2.0 is optional.
Also known as plasma electrolytic oxidation, or PEO.
The 8H Pencil Hardness Test exclusively evaluates the coating’s hardness, it does not examine any other qualities. The hardness tests were conducted by ASUS on 31st October, 2022. Test configuration: Zenbook UX3404 Sandstone Beige model chassis. Test settings: 765g pencil to draw on the chassis while the pencil tip and laptop surface form a 45-degree bevel angle without leaving a notch. The degree of hardness is 8H for PEO treatment, scratches will be marked when the frictions include dusts or sands with Quartz (hardness over 9H).
WiFi 6E availability may vary by country and their specific regulations. Feature only supported by Windows 11 or later.
Performance claim is based on the Cinebench R23 Multi Core benchmark, comparing the score of Zenbook 14X UX3404VC tested by ASUS in Nov 2022 (configured with an Intel Core i9-13900H CPU, 32 GB LPDDR5, and a 1 TB PCIe 4.0 SSD) and Zenbook 14 UX3402ZA (with an Intel Core i7-1260P CPU, 16 GB LPDDR5, and a 1 TB PCIe 4.0 SSD). Test settings: select Performance mode under Fan profile in MyASUS, and idle the laptop for 10mins prior to running the benchmark under AC mode.
Test score may vary according to specifications.
Unless otherwise stated, all performance claims are based on theoretical performance. Actual figures may vary in real-world situations.
89% ratio applies to bezel version only; glass version ratio is 88%.
Compared to average LCD laptop panel. Average LCD display has 10 ms response time.
Compared to average LCD displays in the market, measuring energy emission of blue light in between 415-455 nm wavelength.
Testing done on discrete parts, using soda-lime glass as comparative reference. Figures and tests provided by Corning.
Battery tests conducted by ASUS on January 27, 2023 using the MobileMark^® 2018 Office Productivity scenario. Test configuration: Zenbook UX3404VC, OLED panel, NVIDIA^® GeForce RTX^™ 3050 graphics, 512GB SSD, 16 GB RAM. Test settings: WiFi enabled but disconnected (not connected to any access point), Windows Power Plan set to Balanced, display brightness set to 200 cd/m2. Actual battery life may vary depending on product configuration, usage, operational conditions and power management settings. Battery life will decrease over the lifetime of the battery. (尚未測試, 待確認)
Models with UMA graphics have a 90 W adapter.
The charging speed of a Power Delivery charger will match the connected adapter’s power output, up to a maximum of 100 watts. USB-C^® Easy Charge provides 4.5-watt charging when connected to a non-Power Delivery charger, including most portable and USB Type-A to USB-C^® chargers. Some portable chargers may not support such features, depending on the configuration.
Please note that all versions of NumberPad only work with the Microsoft Windows operating system.
NumberPad 2.0 is optional.
The colour-temperature-adjustment feature is available with OLED models only.
EPEAT registered where applicable. EPEAT registration varies by country. See www.epeat.net for registration status by country.
Percentage varies according to device configuration.
Selected products are tested using enhanced military-grade MIL-STD-810H durability standards, with 12 test methods and 26 test procedures, to ensure extraordinary toughness. Based on ASUS internal market research using available information and testing reports from main laptop brand websites on Oct 28, 2022, ASUS consumer laptops use a regime consisting of 26 test procedures, which is the consumer laptop industry’s strictest and most extensive test regime for the MIL-STD-810H standard.
The testing regime includes the requirements of both military-grade standards and ASUS quality tests, and varies depending on device. MIL-STD-810 testing is conducted on selected ASUS products only. Note that the MIL-STD-810 testing helps to ensure the quality of ASUS products but does not indicate a particular fitness for military use. The test is performed under laboratory conditions. Any damage caused by attempts to replicate these test conditions would be considered accidental, and would not be covered by the standard ASUS warranty. Additional coverage is available with ASUS Premium Care.
