It also offers up to 15 hours[v] of unplugged operation for all-day productivity. USB-C®Easy Charge makes it simple to recharge from any suitable USB-C adapter, power outlet or power bank.

Premium performance

Zenbook 14 OLED is an Intel Evo Edition laptop that features top-tier AI-powered Intel Core Ultra processors with built-in Intel Arc graphics.

Combined with the laptop's ultrafast up to 1 TB SSD storage, 32 GB RAM and WiFi 6E (802.11ax)[vi], this means that users will wait less and be able work faster, wherever they are.

The ultra-vivid 3K (2880x1800) ASUS Lumina OLED 120 Hz display makes every moment incredible, with its up to 600-nit brightness, web-friendly 16:10 aspect ratio, and 87% screen-to-body ratio. And adaptive sync automatically adjusts the refresh rate for always-smooth visuals.

Despite its ultra-compact form factor, Zenbook 14 OLED includes a comprehensive set of full-size high-speed I/O ports — including two Thunderbolt 4 ports, USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, HDMI 2.1 (TMDS) and a convenient 3.5 mm audio jack — so users don't need to carry dongles or adapters around with them.

Premium user experience

Zenbook 14 OLED is designed with the user firmly in mind, incorporating a range of advanced features designed to enhance their mobile lifestyle. Whatever the user is listening to, the powerful, crystal-clear sound delivered by the new super-linear speakers, smart amplifier and ASUS Audio Booster in the Harman Kardon-certified audio system will give their ears a treat with the multidimensional Dolby Atmos® sound.

When late-night deadlines approach, the new quiet ASUS ErgoSense keyboard reduces aural distractions to a minimum while offering a supremely comfortable typing experience, thanks to the fine-tuned key pitch, dished key caps and ergonomic key travel.

To guard the user's privacy, the FHD IR camera has a physical shutter, and the camera delivers a superlative video conferencing experience, enhanced by AI noise cancelation and built-in video enhancements for crystal-clear audio and crisp video.

Made for the Earth

ASUS is committed to do more with less through Zenbook. This device aims to minimize its environmental impact across the entire product lifecycle, from material use and manufacturing, through to assembly, use, and end of life. We have mitigated its carbon footprint by incorporating up to 50% post-consumer-recycled (PCR) materials and designing eco-conscious packaging that's 100% recyclable. Zenbook 14 OLED also exceeds the ENERGY STAR®power-efficiency standard by 50%.
