Asus Nepal has introduced new additions to its popular ZenBook series in Nepal. These include Asus ZenBook 13 (UX325), ZenBook 14 (UX425), ZenBook 14 (UX435), and ZenBook Flip 13 (UX363). All of these Asus ZenBook laptops come with Intel’s 11th Gen Core CPU.
The ZenBook 13 (UX325) and ZenBook 14 (UX425) are known for their compact elegant all-metal chassis, ergonomic design, and effortless performance. The ZenBook 14 (UX435) comes with an intelligent touchpad, powerful performance, and stunning visuals and design. Similarly, the ZenBook Flip 13 (UX363) has a precision OLED touchscreen and an extreme battery life.
Here we will be taking a brief overlook of each laptop followed by the price in Nepal and availability.
Asus ZenBook 13 (UX325)/ZenBook 14 (UX425)
The ZenBook 13 (UX325) and ZenBook 14 (UX425) are thinner and lighter iterations to the previous generation built around ultra-thin design, comprehensive I/O capabilities that include full-size HDMI and USB Type-A ports on top of two Thunderbolt 4 USB-C data transfer speeds of up to 40 Gbps data speeds for ultrafast file transfers and a microSD card reader.
Furthermore, with the inclusion of the Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports, there’s support for fast charging and up to two 4K UHD external displays.
Asus has brought forth something called Easy Charge via USB-C allowing users to enjoy ultrafast charging with any USB-C Power Delivery-certified charger, such as the bundled 65-watt charger, or charge at slower rates when wall sockets are unavailable using airline chargers, portable chargers, or power banks.
The display is a compact four-sided NanoEdge display with up to 90% screen-to-body ratio for stunning visuals. It even has an option of an ultra-low-power 1-watt display for long-lasting battery life.
As for user experience, the duo brings in Asus NumberPad 2.0 with up to 21 hours of battery life, edge-to-edge keyboard design, ErgoLift hinge mechanisms, and IR cameras for fast face-recognition.
Both Asus ZenBook laptops power on 11th Gen Intel Core processors — up to Core i7 series with next-level Intel Iris X e graphics and up to 16GB RAM for multitasking, productivity, and entertainment whilst use 512GB PCIe 3.0 x2 SSDs and Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax). The Wi-Fi 6 is said to be up to 3X faster than WiFi 5 and supports up to 4X more network capacity and up to 75% lower latency.
The new edge-to-edge ergonomic keyboard design increases the size of the keyboard for a more comfortable typing experience. It also creates space for an extra set of useful function keys on the right-hand side of the keyboard. For maximum typing comfort, the precision-engineered ErgoLift hinge automatically tilts the keyboard to the optimum typing angle when the lid is opened.
This action also creates space under the laptop for extra cooling airflow. Selectable cooling-fan profiles give users the choice of Whisper mode for ultra-quiet cooling, Standard mode for balanced dynamic performance, or Performance mode for high-efficiency cooling when full performance is required.
Both the ZenBook 13 and ZenBook 14 feature an ASUS ClearVoice Mic with AI-trained noise-canceling technology to ensure clear voice outgoing communications in online meetings or internet voice calls. They also use ASUS ClearVoice Speaker technology to filter out ambient noise from incoming audio streams.
Asus ZenBook 13 and ZenBook 14 are available in two new color variants — Pine Grey and Lilac Mist. The ZenBook 13 (UX325) and ZenBook 13 (UX425) both start at a price of NPR 133,333 in Nepal for the i5 variant.
