Asus ZenBook S 13 Flip review: light enough for real work

 

The Asus ZenBook S 13 Flip is a strong competitor in the 13-inch convertible 2-in-1 market, offering a thin and light chassis with strong performance.

Thin and light Excellent build quality Solid productivity performance Good battery life Great keyboard and touchpad

Slightly expensive Touchpad buttons are too stiff

“The Asus ZenBook S 13 Flip puts an OLED display in a well-built, superlight 2-in-1.”

ASUS ZenBook S13 review: A gamer’s ultraportable

 

The ZenBook S13 does what other 2.5-pound ultraportables can't: Actually play some games. While it doesn't have the fastest GPU around, it's enough for a quick game of Overwatch. And everything looks great on its 13.9-inch display, which has bezels so...

Thin bezels alongside a gorgeous 13.9-inch screen ; Dedicated NVIDIA GPU allows for some gaming ; Thin and light 2.5-pound design ; Excellent keyboard and trackpad

Fingerprint sensor gets in the way of the trackpad ; Low quality webcam

While the Zenbook S13 might seem like just another ultraportable on the surface, its dedicated graphics and glorious thin bezel screen help it stand out. ASUS is known for experimenting with new designs in its laptops, like with last year's ZenBook...

Asus Zenbook S 13 Flip OLED Review

 

Beautiful OLED touch screen ; Magnesium-aluminum alloy chassis ; Included pen ; Touchpad doubles as number pad ; Excellent ports and security features ; Effective performance ; Long lasting, quick-charging battery

No pen storage ; No HDMI or Type-A USB ports

The Asus Zenbook S 13 Flip OLED is a slick ultraportable 2-in-1 laptop, with a great OLED touch screen, solid port selection, stellar performance, and long battery life. But in this price range, "great" components are table stakes.

Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED review: the MacBook Air alternative

 

Portable power for $1,299.

Strong CPU and integrated graphics ; Light and portable ; Touchpad becomes a numpad ; High-resolution OLED screen

Not many ports ; CPU can run hot ; Looks a bit boring

The Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED is a thin and light OLED laptop with the power of AMD’s Ryzen 6000 chips. I tested a $1,299 configuration that includes the Ryzen 7 6800U, 16GB of RAM, 1TB of storage, and a 2800 x 1800 OLED screen.
