ASUS ZENBOOK 14 OLED (UX3402) LAPTOP

ASUS has an excellent reputation for producing great laptops with outstanding performance. And their laptop technology's creme de la creme has always been the flagship Zenbook lineup. The Zenbook 14 OLED is one of their newer Zenbooks, and ASUS has a jewel in this ultra-portable yet powerful device.

DESIGN 5/5

If asked to describe the Zenbook 14 OLED in one word, I would say it's "Stunning!" The laptop features an all-aluminum body, making it lightweight yet durable. Our review unit was in their Aqua Celadon color which, according to ASUS, was supposed to be a pale green color; to me, it looked more silver than green. I liked the nice silver lines that added a bit of flare to the laptop's cover.

Opening the laptop, you'll be greeted by the 14-inch 16:10 2,8K OLED display. The display is one of the laptop's most notable features, offering excellent viewing angles and great colors. For those wanting to do a bit of designing on the laptop, the display is 100% in the DCI-P3 color gamut. For those wanting a bit of light gaming, the display also has a 90Hz refresh rate.

The Zenbook 14 OLED has ASUS' ErgoSense keyboard and touchpad. It's a full-sized keyboard, and typing feels alright. The keys have a bit of travel distance, something rare for this form of laptop. The travel distance made the keys do a little "twang" sound whenever I typed fast, which made me do a double take at first, but I eventually got used to it. There's also ASUS' Number Pad 2.0 on the touchpad, a feature I have always liked.
