About this deal

The OLED panel also offers good color-space coverage, since it fully reproduces the sRGB space and even covers 87% of the AdobeRGB one. According to Asus, DCI-P3 is fully reproduced as well, and in addition, the display is Pantone certified. The Asus ZenBook 13 ships with a one-year limited warranty. See how Asus fared during Tech Support Showdown and Best and Worst Brands, our annual special reports. Bottom line The performance of the ZenBook 13’s 1TB SSD as measured by the PCMark 8 storage subtest is also excellent, though not appreciably different from other SSD-based laptops, all of which score around 5,000 points on this test. It’s slightly better than the AMD Radeon Graphics in the Envy x360, and suggests that people who are willing to compromise on detail and resolution can use the ZenBook 13 as a substitute for an entry-level gaming laptop. Battery Life Testing

The stated 2.9mm width of the side bezel is the distance between the edge of the non-active screen display area and the inside edge of the case. If the case width is included, the side bezel width is 4.4mm. Measured based on standard (anti-glare) display configuration. The top bezel width is 6.5mm and the bottom bezel width is 12.9mm. ZenBook 13 OLED UX325EA with an Intel 11th Gen processor can support a maximum of four displays: the laptop’s own display, plus three external displays attached to the two Thunderbolt 4 ports and the HDMI port. Please note that all versions of NumberPad only work with the Microsoft Windows operating system, and NumberPad is optional.

Not the extraordinary battery life asus proclaims like 13 hrs but it still gives 7 to 8 around 50 percent brightness but with battery efficient mode. The ZenBook 13 is one of the first production laptops we’ve tested with Intel’s Tiger Lake CPUs. The Intel Core i7-1165G7 has four cores, eight threads, and a base frequency of 2.8GHz. It also uses Intel’s latest Iris Xe Graphics processor. This integrated graphics engine offers performance approaching that of an entry-level gaming laptop with a discrete GPU, and is a boon to people who prefer an ultraportable laptop but occasionally want to play games on it. Easy USB-C ® Charging ensures 4.5-watt charging when connecting to a non-Power Delivery chargers, including portable chargers or USB Type-A to USB-C ® chargers. When using a Power Delivery charger, the charging speed will match the connected adapter's power output, up to a maximum of 65 watts.

Customer satisfaction with ASUS notebooks concerns performance, the features, and the good price-performance ratio of ASUS notebooks. However, as with any brand, there are occasional reports of problems such as overheating, driver compatibility, or build quality issues. At maximum volume, the ZenBook 13’s speakers are easily powerful enough to fill a midsize living room. This is thanks in part to what Asus calls a “smart” amplifier, which the company says is designed to allow the maximum possible volume without damaging the speaker coils. The emphasis is clearly on volume over quality, though, as music played at the maximum level sounds slightly tinny and distorted. During the Puget Photoshop benchmark, which loops through 21 different Photoshop tasks three times per run, the ZenBook 13 attained a score of 742, skating past the 598 average. The MacBook Air notched only 459 while the Swift 3 obtained 549.1. Charging performance test with laptop powered-off. Actual charging time may vary in real world conditions.I've appeared on CBS News, in USA Today, and at many other outlets to offer analysis on breaking technology news. Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions. See how we test. Maxon's CPU-crunching Cinebench R15 test, which is fully threaded to make use of all available processor cores and threads, shows similar results. Cinebench stresses the CPU rather than the GPU to render a complex image. The result is a proprietary score indicating a PC's suitability for processor-intensive workloads. Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards. Apart from the predecessor and the current AMD version, the competitors include other lightweight subnotebooks like the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i Carbon , the HP Spectre x360 14 (13.5-inch), or the Apple MacBook Air Late 2020 (13.3-inch, M1 CPU).

ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED UX325EA with an Intel 11th Gen processor can support a maximum of four displays: the laptop’s own display, plus three external displays attached to the two Thunderbolt 4 ports and the HDMI port. The ZenBook 13’s battery deserves special recognition. Though ASUS promises between 16 to 22 hours of battery life, the test unit on lower battery settings ran between 14 to 17 hours of daily use. During its PCMark 10 Battery Life test, it did a respectable 9 hours and 40 minutes. This means that it can last a full day between charges that don’t take very long. The battery usually takes a little over an hour to fully charge. Using the standard TechRadar movie test of looping local 1080p video, the ZenBook 13 delivered 11 hours and 56 minutes. That’s enough battery power for a flight from LAX to Heathrow with juice to spare. During the 3DMark Fire Strike benchmark, the ZenBook 13 put up an impressive 4,407, easily beating the Swift 3 (2,847) and Envy (2,071). Asus ZenBook 13 battery life Otherwise, both versions share many plus points such as the color-accurate display, the low weight and the compact design, and the good input devices with the optional number pad in the touchpad. The weak hinges and the non-expandable RAM deserve criticism. In addition, the Intel CPU is heavily throttled under load, but it runs quite cool and smooth as a result, but it's also louder than the AMD ZenBook. The Asus ZenBook 13 exceeds those expectations, lasting 13 hours and 47 minutes on the Laptop Mag Battery Test (continuous web surfing over Wi-Fi at 150 nits of brightness). That’s more than three hours longer than the 10:01 premium laptop average. The Swift 3 lasted 11:09 while the MacBook Air tapped out after 9:31. The Envy had the shortest time of 6:31. Asus ZenBook 13 heatUnfortunately, the ZenBook 13 isn’t as bright as I would have hoped. It averaged only 370 nits, which is better than the Swift 3’s 251 nits. They’re both dimmer than the 382-nit average, the MacBook Air (386 nits), and the Envy, which notched 401 nits. Asus ZenBook 13 audio The ZenBook 13 takes the lead on our image editing benchmark, in which we apply a series of 10 complex filters and effects to a standard JPEG test image using Adobe Photoshop. We time each operation and, at the end, add up the total execution time. The 65-watt USB-C power adapter has ample reserves with a maximum consumption of 36 watts. In addition, the power adapter is plugged directly into the power outlet, from where only one cable leads to the laptop instead of the usual two. This allows it to be a bit shorter than the combined power cord length of laptops that have proprietary charging ports. OLED Screen (bright colours). I turned on HDR in windows display settings to mute it for normal work but it consumes more battery (just observation). Its a FHD resolution panel at 60 Hz (don't confuse with vivobook pro 14 panel at 90 hz and better resolution). Although the screen seems to have a reddish tint when compared to Samsung tab S6 with Amoled screen (in my case at least). As the laptop has a metal frame, it has sharp edges, when you are someone who does a lot of typing and uses the touchpad heavily, after a few months or a year in my case it will start showing the effect. (I taped it around to reduce the impact on my hands - See the second picture)
