The laptop is solid and well constructive, it is possible to open the lid with one hand.
The usage of the device is really good, I don't see any freeze on daily tasks. I use it to connect to my VM and surf on internet without issues (Social networks, videos, music).
I think the ports on this device are good, 1 HDMI, 2 USB C, 1 USB A and a headphone jack.
Battery life it is good, I don't use it on battery more than 4 hours without problem, most of the time is connected to a docking station.
Display is OLED 60 hz refresh, it looks great, the form factor is 16:10 and I added a magnetic privacy screen than help to keep your work out of other eyes.
Keyboard and mouse pad are really comfortable to use, the only bad thing is the full keyboard plate going down when you are typing, maybe something to improve on next model or revision of this laptop.
Software made by Asus, the laptop came with the utility My Asus, this suite gives you some configurations to protect your device, like drives and firmware updates, some helpful settings to keep your battery on good shape, like only charging up to 80% and also the possibility to override this setting and charge to full load for a special occasion. Also, it has the possibility to make some changes to protect the oled display and prevent to burn pixels, like refresh pixel, dark mode on the background windows and only keep brilliant the current window, auto hide the taskbar. 2 things than I'm missing from my Dell laptop is the possibility to auto turn on when you plug in to the docking station or the option to turn on when you open the lid. I already check My Asus app and BIOS settings without find it.
I wish than ASUS or other vendor creates cover like the one for Apple laptops to prevent your device and keep your fingerprints out of the cover (Yes, the color is really nice but it is easy to catch fingerprints on it).
I will check the IA settings on this new processor but as I read on reviews it is still behind from Apple Silicon chips but it is a really good start.

Ultra 7 processor and 16GB memory make multitasking a breeze, providing a smooth and efficient experience. Loving the 14” WUXGA OLED touch display... vibrant colours and crisp visuals. Long battery life, it lasts all day on a single charge for my use. Lightweight & Gray finish gives it a sophisticated look that stands out in any setting. Can open the lid with one hand due to stable hinges. Got it in a good deal, happy with the purchase. I would definitely recommend.

DON'T BUY IF YOU MIND COIL WHINE

I was using a Dell XPS 9510 before this. It worked excellently however the battery life was pathetic, like 3-4 hours on a good day. However, I did not mind that as I had easy access to charging ports.
While working on my XPS I spilled some coffee onto it. The laptop obviously stopped working and is stuck in a boot loop. I now have stopped drinking coffee. The money saved went towards this ASUS Zenbook.
The Zenbook has an amazing display and an even better battery life. Easily lasts 2 days on light use or an entire work day with heavy use. Since this is 60HZ, its battery life is better than the versions of the same model with a higher refresh rate.
The one thing I noticed is that the trackpad is a little smaller than the XPS by about 25%. I would have preferred it but this is fine, just takes about 2 weeks to get used to. I would also have preferred if there were type c ports on both sides as that would make charging possible from either direction.
I love the fact that the laptop has a physical camera cover, and is extremely light.
The laptop has most features that are standard now such as battery protection and noise reduction.
KEEP IN MIND THAT THE LAPTOP HAS SOME SERIOUS COIL WHINE.
If you don't know what that is, it is a high-pitched noise that occurs when current flows through electrical components. According to ASUS "It is neither a hardware defect nor affecting the device". It is only audible in quiet environments.
There are a few downsides to the laptop, firstly it does not have a fingerprint sensor which is an issue in high brightness areas or when there is a light right behind you as the facial recognition does not work. Second, the RAM is not upgradable. Fortunately, the SSD is, though there is only one stot without a heat sink.
I now only drink tea while using my laptop. I am told that tea may also damage my laptop if spilled but I don't believe the people telling me that. I will update this post and to let all of you know if it is true or not in case I were to spill tea on this laptop.
I bought the laptop for $596 toward the end of July 2024. I don't know why it said fair condition, I got it in perfect condition as if it were brand new.

I originally purchased the i5, 8 gig model of this model and was with that, so I sold it and upgraded to the Intel Core Ultra 7 - Intel Evo Edition - 16GB Memory - 1TB version when it went on sale for $700. After installing Linux on it, it is now my daily driver for work plus, in my opinion, a much better Macbook alternative with good build quality and premium features for much less than the competition. It has a beautiful screen, a great typing experience and a long battery life.
To compare with a similar M3 Macbook in specs, it would cost $1500 before taxes. A M3 is only slightly better according to NanoReivew CPU matrix:
NanoReview Final ScoreGeneric CPU rating
Core Ultra 7 155H. 60 Apple M3 66
You definitely pay a premium for 1TB SSD & 16 gigs with the MacBook Air. In my user-case, all the app/programs I use for Linux are free compared to macOS where I would have to pay, so I'm extremely happy with this laptop.

I bought this Zenbook mostly for travel. Fantastic size and weight, power brick is small. Screen is crisp and bright. Trackpad is as good as a Windows machine's going to get, a shadow of Mac trackpad usability. The overall performance is good but not quite the leap I expected compared to my 8-year old Core I7 machine. Mostly meets my expectations, especially for travel.
Photos show size comparison of laptop and charger with Dell XPS 14 (9550), my previous travel laptop.

Overall very satisfied using this laptop. Previously I have used MacBook pro for almost 6 years, finally answered to Windows. My initial impressions of using zenbook are really great. I'm very much impressed with the OLED screen quality. Initially I'm skeptical enough regarding the screen but so far I haven't faced any issues. The viewing angles and the colors are good. Also you can play around with your display in MyASUS app suiting your interests. This zenbook also supports the Windows hello, it's okay enough but really wish it would have a fingerprint scanner. The sound is good not really comparable to Mac's. The touch and type experience is very good. Battery life is also decent enough almost gives me around 7 hours and also supports the fast charging. CPU is really powerful it handles all the tasks that I throw without any lag. I don't give a lot so can't really talk about the graphics. I mainly use it for coding, watching movies and web browsing. To summarize the above
Positives
1) screen quality
2) fast CPU
3) sound and typing experience
4) battery life
Cons
1) facing Wi-Fi issues here and then
2) not 100% reliable face unlock, wish they add some updates to improve.
These are my initial impressions of using this laptop. Will update after a month of my use.

I got this on sale for $750. At that price it's a very good choice, but I probably wouldn't buy it for any more than that. I use Arch Linux on it and it runs well but some parts of setup were complicated. I primarily use it for schoolwork and some gaming and it does well. The only complaint I have is the fact that it gets very hot very easily.

Great Laptop! Great performance and good battery life. The laptop has great out of the box Linux support. I chose to use Linux and found that Manjaro works great on this device. Manjaro is the only distro I have tried, but I imagine it will work well with other distros too.
The laptop has been great while traveling. I appreciate the USB Type-C charging that allows me to bring fewer chargers to keep my laptop, phone, and earbuds all charged.

Amazing laptop. Definitely a recommended laptop for school. Has plenty of storage, runs quick, looks amazing in quality. Especially the OLED. Downside could be the battery life, it would last me a while during school but it gets lower kinda quick. But it charges really fast so I don’t worry about it. I recommend buying it during back to school sales like mid summer cause I got it for 200 dollars cheaper

This laptop is an ideal business laptop for students as well as for professionals. Lightweight, sturdy and sleek, it has a premium feel. The touch screen display and audio systems are top notch.

Asus lives upto the expectation overall ! Writing this review after 1 year of regular use - worth the investment

Great all around on the go device. The screen is fantastic and when I’m in my dorm, I use it as a second monitor using a capture card and watching movies on it is fantastic. Great keyboard and sturdy frame for getting work done. Touchscreen is nice but you may see fingerprints but still nice to have. Super long battery life, never had a problem with it even playing Minecraft for four hours straight. Overall very happy and feels sturdy and reliable enough to last a while!
