I have this laptop. Max size here in the U.S is ultra 9 185H and 1TB SSD. I bought it for college. Since I’ll need something powerful enough to run 3D modeling software and mastercam CNC G-code software. Only SolidWorks didn’t run great out of the box, but with some tweaking it became bearable. Mastercam and Inventor ran smoothly and the wireless keyboard was incredibly useful when using the model as a reference for my machined parts. Only thing I need to solve is having more USB/C ports cause I use a wired mouse. I’m also thinking of making an eGPU setup for 1440p max settings gaming. Since this is a powerful CPU, loading up the GPU with the power should lend to good performance in most games those ports are both Thunderbolt 4 afterall.

@@Priyam_B it does, but I was also using the 2022 version as that’s what my school had access to. Newer versions may run better. I had to turn almost all the settings to off/low for it to work smoothly. If you’re looking to do a lot of 3D modeling both now and in the future, get a laptop with a verified workstation card. If it’s just for one or 3 classes then you’ll manage just fine. Inventor and Mastercam all work flawlessly with this laptop tho. So it’s probably just a SolidWorks issue.

I am currently half way through a 20-day trip and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Photoshop, with lots of add-ons, works flawlessly and I have had no problems at all with DaVinci Resolve.

Since this didn't have a dedicated gpu, I got the oled, Ultra 7 155H, 16gb model on release and it suprisingly does everything i ever want if needed. Even gaming was actually possible in high settings on this intel arc igpu, with the right steps.

The screens look awesome 😎 I have a OLED Zenbook Pro duo UX582LR, performance is great, battery is terrible, laptop can heat your home even when just browsing and unfortunately using the pen has been pretty useless as the angle and feel of the main screen isnt good for it and the second screen is a little small and fiddly. I wanted it for 3D sculpting and drawing. Saying that I don't regret the purchase, just didn't want to have to take a drawing tablet around with me. It's great to add controls or tabs to second screen and edits effects etc with ease. And the best thing is having two touch screens is the closest I'll get to being in Star Trek 🖖 live long and proxy

Just bought the Asus. I would say really it comes down to if you prefer Mac OS or Windows. If you don't have a preference then definitely get the Asus. Note I prefer the windows 10 start menu so I use Explorer Patcher to have that menu on Windows 11. The build quality on the Asus is fantastic, better than I expected. I also have a 2021 Zenbook (single screen) and compared to that this is a little thicker (and probably thicker than the M3 macbook) but so so worth it. As someone that insists on multiple screens a lot of the time, this laptop is a dream come true, not having to haul out and plug in a 2nd screen, just pop the keyboard off and start working. And having a wireless keyboard is great too. And the hinge/stand thing is a lot sturdier than expected, I can even lay in bed and do dual-screen mode with it next to me on the bed. Anyways, this is a real head turner and a joy to use.

I only use an MX Ergo trackball (will never use a mouse or trackpad again and haven't for 15 years. Once you track, you never go back. You don't need a fingerprint reader when you have face ID.

Follow-up to my previous comment, I’m looking at the price and I think they’re pitching this wrong, I would upgrade the screen in terms of brightness in colour, 120 Hz whilst impressive less relevant, improve the battery and sell it for Apple like prices and I actually think they’ll make more money and more sales. Actually, maybe not more sales, I see it sold out, but more profit.

Ahh yeah I see your point! However, people do tend to make a big fuss about 60hz these days. There was a massive thing about one of the iPhones being 60Hz.

Apple don't really innovate these days, that hasn't been their model in years really. They tend to watch what others are doing, wait until the kinks have been worked out and the tech has improved, then 'reinvent' those things and just make really really good versions of them. Which on one hand is annoying, on the other kinda makes sense ha. If I was in the laptop manufacturing game, that's probably what I'd do too 😄 Which is why I get excited when brands do take risks and try cool designs, like this one!
