ErgoLift Hinge
Designed with you in mind
With any ZenBook, your comfort is one of our top priorities. ZenBook 14 goes the extra mile with its exclusive ErgoLift hinge, an engineering masterpiece designed to automatically tilt the keyboard to the most comfortable typing position.

Design
Extraordinary elegance
None of the traditional ZenBook style has been lost, though: there’s the iconic Zen-inspired spun-metal finish on the lid and a choice of prestigious Royal Blue or sophisticated Icicle Silver finishes, both newly enhanced with a contrasting Rose Gold trim panel above the keyboard for an extra touch of luxury. The elegant Royal Blue color is inspired by the awesome beauty of a golden sunrise over the deep-blue ocean. The sophisticated Icicle Silver reflects the stunning contrasts of native gold and moonlight silver, a harmonious pairing celebrated in this classic theme.
ScreenPad™ 2.0
The Intelligent touchpad, evolved
The new ScreenPad™ 2.0 upgrades the traditional laptop experience, adding an interactive secondary touchscreen that enhances your productivity with more possibilities. Its intuitive smartphone-like interface lets you easily manage tasks and create your own seamless multitasking workflow. There's a series of handy ASUS utility apps to boost productivity including Quick Key — for one-tap automation of complex keyboard sequences — along with Handwriting, Number Key and Office Xpert. There are also useful quick controls that improve the interactions between the main display and ScreenPad: for example, you can now launch a video or chat box — or many other apps — onto ScreenPad to take advantage of the extra space wherever you are, and without interrupting your work on the main display.

NVIDIA discrete graphics
The NVIDIA GeForce MX350 discrete graphics chip in ZenBook 14 gives you desktop-level performance in a laptop. Now, you can expect up to 2.5x faster performance over integrated graphics for silky-smooth photo and video-editing applications.

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
