ASUS ZenBook 14X OLED Space Edition Laptop, 14” 2.8K 16:10 OLED Touch Display, Intel Core i9-12900H CPU, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Windows 11 Pro, ZenVision Display, UX5401ZAS-XS99T

Too expensive for what you wind up with.

Right when i received it, there were several loose/wobbly keys. Normally this wouldnt be a dealer-breaker, but the backspace key started making an obnoxious squeaking noise after a few presses.

This is a nice laptop, but for some reason it seems to have little hickups that causes delays opening certain programs. Not sure if a software or hardware issue, but it is mildly annoying considering how expensive it was.

Producto tal como lo describen y con buena calidad.

I purchased this laptop in January of this year. Life happened and I was unable to unbox it and get it set up until today. Imagine my surprise when it didnt power on at all. It doesnt matter if its plugged in or not. Charging it for five hours didnt help. It just wont come on.

Been very happy with this laptop, hasn’t blinked yet with anything I’ve thrown at it. I do a decent amount of photo/video editing and light gaming. No issues with battery life either as I know that’s been a common issue.

To be honest, I am not sure if the issue is with the ASUS Zenbook or Windows 11, but I have a similar work HP with Windows 11 that does not have the issues I am experiencing.

Where to start? Has to be the design because if youre buying the laptop, the design is the biggest part. Its very good and an attention getter. Design standouts include etched space edition branding (simulating external paneling on a space station), an OLED external display with an astronaut screensaver (among a few limited others), and a subtle darker(ish) titanium color evoking most premium laptops since the Apple Powerbook G4 (damn I miss that one). DId I mention how much of an attention-getter the external display is? Not quite on the level of wearing Google Glass but on the same spectrum.

For a 14 ultrabook of any brand to have a 12th gen i9 processor and 32GB RAM, 1TB M.2, and a 2.8k OLED display is incredible. This thing is lightning fast! Cool features like number pad built into the touch pad, full aluminum case, and a fun little customizable display on the lid take it over the top. I love it! Only thing i will warn you on is the battery life. As you can imagine, you will not be powering all that up in a tiny laptop and get good battery life. 4 hours is the max youll get so if you need long life, find an i5 machine with a standard display. This one wont be good for you.

Im comparing this laptop with a ThinkPad P1 Gen5, a ThinkPad X1C 7th gen, and the MacBook Pro M1 Max.
