Asus releases dozens of laptops every year, although Zenbook is one of its most established product families. The line began life back in 2011, and it’s been one of the leading names among thin and light laptops ever since.
Well over a decade later, the Zenbook 14 Flip continues that tradition, packing a host of premium features into its 1.5kg chassis. But with a starting price that puts it among the most expensive 2-in-1s you can buy, the device has a lot to live up to.
Unfortunately, despite plenty of positives, it falls just short of those lofty expectations. Here’s our full review.
DESIGN
Asus has played it safe with the Zenbook 14 Flip design, yet it still manages to stand out from the crowd. That’s primarily due to the back of the device, which features a matte finish and unique angular pattern.
But this is a double-edged sword: it looks great, particularly when catching the light, but fingerprint smudges and dirt can quickly accumulate. You might not have thought about cleaning the back of your laptop very often, but it’s something you’ll need to consider here.
I really like the futuristic design and so am happy to accept this is a trade-off, but not everyone will be as enthusiastic about it.latter doesn’t stand out in the same way.
