ASUS 14X 14" Overview

By B&H Photo's

Take your creativity to new heights with the ASUS Zenbook 14X OLED Space Edition Notebook. Sporting a unique futuristic style, the Zenbook 14X offers robust functionality, a Pantone Validated display, and enhanced performance suitable for a variety of graphic designers and photo editors.

Powering the Zenbook 14X is a 12th Gen 2.5 GHz Intel Core i9 processor, 32GB of LPDDR5 RAM, and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD, all working together to offer enhanced performance essential for editing photos and video on the go. The 14" OLED touchscreen offers 2880 x 1800 resolution at 90 Hz refresh rate for a clear, smooth, and color-accurate picture. An additional 3.5" OLED display is located on the lid, showing you personalized notifications, animations, or text. Dual Thunderbolt 4 ports allow you to connect a wide range of resource-demanding peripherals such as powered USB hubs, external storage arrays, displays, and more. Access your cloud storage or stream your favorite media with Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) technology or use the included USB Type-A to Gigabit Ethernet if you prefer a wired connection.

Commemorating 25 Years of ASUS Laptops in Space
The laptop design is inspired by the 1998 space-travel event and aims to rekindle memories of the journey. Space themes and motifs are embedded within the patterns, color, and new technologies. Zenbook 14X is finished in an exclusive Zero-G Titanium color, reflecting the fact that titanium is widely used in spacecraft construction. This inspirational shade represents the promise of discovery that space travel offers.
OLED Touchscreen Display
Take full control over your work with the 14" OLED touchscreen display that features ultra-slim 4-sided NanoEdge bezels, 2880 x 1800 resolution, 90 Hz refresh rate, and 0.2 ms response time. To ensure color accuracy, this display is Pantone Validated with DCI-P3: 100% color gamut, VESA CERTIFIED Display HDR True Black 500, 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio, up to 70% less harmful blue light, and 92% screen-to-body ratio.
Connectivity
You can connect a wide range of devices to the Zenbook 14X with dual Thunderbolt 4 ports which offer data transfer rates up to 40 Gb/s, DisplayPort video out, and daisy-chaining technology. You also get a single USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port, offering data transfer rates up to 10 Gb/s, suitable for devices like external storage drives, mice, and more. The HDMI port enables you to plug in a display so you can extend your screen real estate. A single 3.5mm audio combo jack supports headsets so you can listen and take part in conference calls privately. A microSD card reader allows you to quickly transfer photos from your camera to the Zenbook 14X. Bluetooth 5.2 technology offers a wireless solution for your peripherals, giving you a true tether-free experience.
IceCool Thermal Technology
Zenbook 14X has exceptional heat dissipation via upgraded 6mm and 8mm heat pipes and dual 87-blade fans that efficiently accelerate heat transfer. The fan blades and impeller are made of a liquid-crystal polymer that allows them to be lighter and thinner than ordinary fans. Each fan blade has a 3D-curved aerodynamic design, allowing the fan to achieve better flow rate. In addition, the fans also use a fluid-dynamics bearing, which can achieve better vibration reduction and lower noise when compared to ordinary fans.
ZenVision OLED Display
ZenVision is a 3.5-inch OLED monochrome display located on the lid of the laptop. Space Theme mode displays an animated theme, while Smart Notifications can show time, date, or battery status. And you can display your own custom text message as well via MyASUS app.
Space Tough
Zenbook 14X is designed to withstand the punishing demands of space travel. It complies with the ultra-tough US Space Systems Command Standard SMC-S-016A testing protocols, and it's torture-tested to space-grade standards for resistance to extreme vibration and high/low operational temperatures. Additionally, it meets the US Department of Defense's MIL-STD 810H durability standards.
USB Type-C Easy Charge
Charging your Zenbook 14X is simple with USB-C Easy Charge, which supports a wide range of standard 5-20V USB Type-C chargers. Any Power Delivery certified charger can be used, including the supplied 100-watt fast-charge adapter, or you can top up on the go with airline chargers, portable chargers, or power banks.
Keyboard & Touchpad
Experience smooth typing with a full-sized keyboard equipped with ErgoSense technology. Each key pitch is the same as most desktop keyboards so you can type comfortably and accurately. Keys provide you with a natural curve that meets the shape of your fingertips and travels 1.4 mm, giving you a tactile feel without requiring too much force. Featuring hydrophobic and high-end PVD anti-fingerprint coatings, you get a smooth surface that resists wear and tear while offering an easy-to-clean surface. You can also easily input formulas with the NumberPad which is integrated right into the touchpad.
Security Enhancements
Zenbook 14X includes many thoughtful design features, including secure one-touch login with a handy fingerprint sensor on the power button, as well as an Electric Webcam Shield that protects your visual privacy at the touch of a button.
Ergonomic Typing
For comfortable typing, the precision-engineered ErgoLift hinge automatically lifts the rear of the laptop slightly when it's opened, tilting the keyboard to the optimum typing angle. This action also raises the chassis for optimized cooling and enhanced audio quality.
Reusable Box
The Space Edition accessories box doubles as a laptop stand, lifting the device at a precise 23° angle, providing you with a comfortable typing experience while reducing packaging waste.
Stereo Sound System
The Zenbook 14X includes an enhanced stereo sound system certified with Dolby Atmos and Harman Kardon, ensuring powerful and immersive sound quality suitable for your favorite media or audio editing. You also get AI Noise Suppression which uses an artificial intelligence to isolate unwanted noise from human speech and ambient noise, normalizing all individual voices.
MyASUS
MyASUS provides easy access to ASUS apps that are designed to help you maintain your system, update your software, optimize your PC's performance, and contact ASUS for after-sales service and support.

Cons: a little heavy, not the greatest battery life. Would prefer an nvidia 3050 or better in this. Pro: it’s a unique themed laptop that is one of the coolest I’ve seen.

Disappointing product

By Retired College Prof

Date: 2022-09-10

Looking forward to using my third Zenbook. Attracted by the High performance features and beautiful OLED screen. However, keyboard keys are hard to see because of poor color choice and touchpad is cluttered with num keyboard. As a result, I returned the laptop after a one day trial. I would love a Zenbook with i9 processor and 1 tb ssd storage with white on black keys and without the distracting graphics.

Keyboard backlighting faint

The backlighting on the keyboard keys is faint and I hoped to increase it but even at the highest settings it remains faint. So it can’t be fixed. Love the laptop though

DEFINITELY RECOMMEND

I am currently obsessed with outer space themed stuff and this really achieved that. It is amazing and a fast computer! I am also a computer science student and so far it has met all my needs for programming and writing my papers. Definitely would recommend as well because it is super light weight for carrying around campus.
