Zenbook 14 UX431
Unleash your creative vision
Creativity. Style. Innovation. These are the qualities that define the elegant new ZenBook 14. Everything in this super-compact masterpiece is designed to give you the freedom to discover your creative vision, including the stunning slim-bezel NanoEdge display with its 86% screen-to-body ratio. You’ll appreciate not only the tremendous power within and the thoughtful attention to detail — such as the exclusive ErgoLift hinge and optional NumberPad touchpad — but also the timeless beauty of the design, with its sophisticated Utopia Blue finish enhanced by the stylish silver trim panel. ZenBook 14 is waiting: are you ready to unleash your creative vision?
NanoEdge Display
Unbounded beauty
Designed to give you more screen area in less physical space, the NanoEdge design has slimmer bezels on all four sides to make any visuals more immersive, with less distraction for your eyes. It also features wide-view technology for clear images even when viewed from extreme angles. And thanks to this super-compact display, ZenBook 14 has a footprint that’s as small as many 13-inch laptops — so you can explore your creative vision anywhere!

Smaller bezel, smaller laptop
ZenBook 14 has a super-compact, slim and lightweight metal chassis that’s no bigger than many 13-inch models, giving you unrivaled portability and take-anywhere convenience. None of the timeless elegance that’s the ZenBook hallmark has been lost, though: there’s the iconic Zen-inspired spun-metal finish on the lid and a sophisticated Utopia Blue finish, enhanced with a subtle silver trim panel above the keyboard for an extra stylish touch.

The powerful 10th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 processor
ZenBook 14 delivers state-of-the-art performance in an ultrathin form factor. At its heart is the latest 10th Generation Intel Core i7 processor, which is 1.35 times faster than the previous generation, with up to 16GB of RAM for effortless, super-smooth multitasking.

Speed for professionals
A high-performance solid-state disk with a PCIe® 3.0 x2 interface gives ZenBook 14 the fastest storage available, allowing ultra-quick boot times and zero-wait app loading. And with 16GB of high-speed LPDDR3 RAM — clocked at an amazing 2133MHz — ZenBook 14 can handle multiple demanding tasks without skipping a beat.
NVIDIA discrete graphics
The GeForce MX250 discrete graphics chip in ZenBook 14 uses the groundbreaking NVIDIA Pascal™ architecture to give you desktop-level performance in a laptop. With its dedicated video memory, the MX250 is up to 3.5x faster than a standard integrated graphics chip using shared memory, so whatever your creative graphics task — such as video rendering, photo editing or 3D modeling — ZenBook 14 delivers the silky-smooth speed you need.
Introducing NumberPad
NumberPad solves the age-old problem of the lack of a numeric keypad on compact laptops. Just long-press the NumberPad icon at the top right corner of the touchpad, and an illuminated numeric keypad appears. Tap the icon again to return to normal touchpad mode — it’s not magic, but it’s close! With NumberPad you can quickly perform data entry or calculations, and in touchpad mode the glass covering provides super-smooth and precise fingertip control with multitouch gesture support.
Reinventing function keys
Attention to every useful detail is a key part of the ASUS design philosophy. We’ve introduced an evolutionary new way of using the humble Fn key to access your laptop’s features, such as the volume or display brightness. In the past, you’d press the Fn key first to use these features: now, the function keys operate the advanced features by default. If you want to access the standard function keys (F1-F12) simply use the Fn key combination.
Gigabit-class Wi-Fi
With faster-than-wired speeds of up to 1734Mbps — 12 times faster than 802.11n — the dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi in ZenBook 14 lets you enjoy smooth streaming of online videos, with greater range and more stable network connections.

ASUS Wi-Fi Master
ZenBook 14 incorporates ASUS Wi-Fi Master technology, so you’ll enjoy faster and more reliable Wi-Fi connections at greater distances than ever before. With Wi-Fi Master, you can enjoy streaming FHD YouTube videos at distances of up to 300 meters6 or even more. And even when you’re using USB 3 devices — which can cause wireless interference — you can still stream smoothly when you’re up to 225 meters or more away from your router, 65 meters farther than on standard laptops without the benefit of Wi-Fi Master!6

One-touch access with Windows Hello
Accessing your ZenBook 14 couldn’t be easier or more secure, thanks to Windows Hello technology and the fingerprint sensor built into the touchpad. Now there’s no need to type in your password every time to log in — a single touch is all it takes!
fingerprint recognition
Cortana, your long-distance assistant!
Cortana is your voice-controlled digital personal assistant, and the far-field capability of the powerful microphone array on ZenBook 14 means you can interact reliably from further away — up to 4 meters away even in noisy environments like a kitchen or living room.
Use your voice to control your day
Alexa is a cloud-based voice service that helps you with tasks, entertainment, general information, and more. Using Alexa is as simple as asking a question. Just ask to play music, read the news, control your smart home, tell a joke, and more — Alexa will respond instantly.8
