Ultraportable, redefined

The new Zenbook series ushers in a fresh era of ultracompact, ultralight laptops that boast the smallest footprints in their class, a feat made possible by the new frameless NanoEdge design. The stunning frameless NanoEdge displays now feature ultraslim bezels on all four sides, creating an unrivaled up to 95% screen-to-body ratio that maximizes the screen area in the minimum physical space.

The result is simply breathtaking, the near-borderless visuals and on the vivid color accurate display deliver a more immersive viewing experience with less visual distraction, making Zenbook the perfect choice for on-the-go creativity or entertainment.

Complementing the groundbreaking new design, the traditional Zenbook style and elegance is apparent at a glance: all models feature the iconic Zen-inspired spun-metal finish on the lid, and there's a choice of prestigious Royal Blue or sophisticated Icicle Silver anodized finishes, both newly enhanced with a contrasting Rose Gold trim bar above the keyboard for an extra touch of luxury.

Unbounded performance

The new Zenbook series is built to deliver unbounded on-the-go performance, featuring up to the latest 8th Generation Intel Core i7 processor and a range of fast graphics options, including up to Nvidia GeForce MX150 discrete graphics on Zenbook 13 and 14. Zenbook 15 is equipped with high-performance Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Max-Q GPU.

All models are equipped with PCIe SSDs and up to 16GB of RAM, making Zenbook ideal for creating complex documents, mining data, retouching photos, editing videos, or simply taking a gaming break. The new Zenbook series lets users do more, and do it quicker.

Mobile professionals need to stay connected — at the fastest speed possible. All new Zenbook models feature gigabit-class MU-MIMO dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi and ASUS Wi-Fi Master technology, for ultrafast downloads and smooth streaming with greater range and more stable network connections than ever before. Additionally, the latest Bluetooth 5.0 lets users access all the benefits of the latest low-power peripherals and accessories.

Designed for non-stop, on-the-go lifestyles, the new Zenbook series gives users the freedom to work all day on a single battery charge — up to an impressive 14 and 13 hours for Zenbook 13 and 14, and an incredible 17 hours for Zenbook 15.

No-compromise productivity

For the ultimate on-the-go productivity, Zenbook 13 and 14 are equipped with the exclusive new ASUS NumberPad. NumberPad solves the age-old problem of the lack of a dedicated numeric keypad on compact laptops. Tapping the NumberPad icon at the top right corner of the touchpad reveals a full-size LED-illuminated numeric keypad, allowing rapid and intuitive data entry or calculations. Zenbook 15 features a traditional physical numeric keypad.

All models feature an advanced 3D infrared (IR) camera, with see-in-the-dark capabilities to ensure fast, reliable hands-free face login with Windows Hello — even in dimly-lit environments. Unlike some rivals with awkwardly placed cameras, on Zenbook the camera is located on the slim top bezel of the NanoEdge display — yet another thoughtful design detail.

Advanced voice-recognition capabilities on the new Zenbook series means users can be entertained, informed, and organized simply by speaking to Alexa or Cortana.

Improved comfort & connectivity

With any Zenbook, comfort is one of the top design priorities. The new Zenbook series goes the extra mile with the exclusive ErgoLift hinge, designed to automatically tilt the keyboard to a comfortable typing position. The carefully calculated tilt also improves cooling and audio performance. 

When working on the go, it’s vital to be able to connect with anything and everything. The new Zenbook series features the revolutionary USB-C port for any-way-up connections and superfast USB 3.1 Gen 2 (up to 10Gbps) data transfers, and there's also a range of other USB ports, including USB Type-A (up to 5Gbps or 10Gbps) and/or USB 2.0. All models also include a full sized HDMI port and a microSD or SD card reader, so it’s easy to connect to all your current and future peripherals.
