Fremont, California (December 7, 2020) - ASUS today announced ExpertBook B9, the next generation of the 2020 Red Dot Design Award-winning mobile powerhouse, which is proudly the world’s lightest 14-inch business laptop.

The latest ExpertBook B9 models inherit all the strong features of the previous generation. It’s engineered with the latest cutting-edge up to 11th Gen Intel® Core™ processors with built-in Intel Iris® Xe™ graphics for serious performance and visual excellence, Thunderbolt™ 4 for flexible connections at warp speed, AdaptiveLock proximity sensor for ultrafast logins and security, and AI noise-cancelation technology for undisturbed video calls – perfect for the remote working patterns imposed by the current pandemic environment.

Despite these vast improvements in performance and functionality, ExpertBook B9 retains its prestigious record as being the world’s lightest 14” business laptop1 – weighing a mere 2.2 lb. It also offers close to a full day battery life for on the go use.

ASUS has also strived to make ExpertBook B9 an environmentally-conscious choice. It is both Energy Star® 7.1-certified and rated by EPEAT™ Gold, offering an assurance of energy efficiency that reduces operating costs over the long term. Even the packaging is environmentally conscious and useful, with the accessory box transforming into a laptop stand for instant elevation with an ecological nod.

ExpertBook B9 combines beauty, brains and brawn

ExpertBook B9’s thin chassis would seem to be at odds with its rugged construction and high-performance specifications, but our engineers made sure that performance, durability, and longevity came together in perfect harmony. A combination of cutting-edge technologies enable high efficient video conferencing, seamless login, and snappier responsiveness in a smaller and lighter form factor. Extremely portable, powerful and tough, ExpertBook B9 is the ideal partner in the corporate world.

Ultimate portability

ExpertBook B9 is incredibly thin and light, and is encased in a magnesium-lithium-alloy chassis, yet still has room for a battery that lasts for days of real-world use. The 2.2 lb ExpertBook B9 packs a 66 Wh battery that stores enough juice for close to a full day – all in a 14.9-mm-thin profile.

Fast-charging support brings the battery up to 60% of maximum capacity in just 45 minutes, so there’s no need to worry about downtime on the road.

The guts of a champion

ExpertBook B9 pursues superfast, secure, and full of storage and connections to handle all business professional needs– with the latest model packing some powerful specifications.

These are led by new and high-performance 11th Gen up to Intel Core™ i7 processor with Iris Xe graphics which delivers discrete-level graphics performance for next-gen media experiences and up to 32 GB LDDR4x 4266 MHz memory. There’s also superfast Intel WiFi 6 and huge storage in the form of up to dual 2 TB SSDs for data reliability or faster operation.

Despite its thin profile, ExpertBook B9 is loaded with I/O ports.
