About me: mikeobrienmedia.com
This is the new Asus Zenbook Pro and I wanted to find out why this was selling out everywhere. Now after using it for the past week, it is clear to me. This could very well end up being the perfect laptop for certain types of users and there are main reasons. Let me explain. So this laptop comes in a few configurations, but they are all pretty stacked with a powerful processor and graphics card while offering a very accurate display which really intrigued me. I was fortunate enough to get my hands on this 14inch OLED laptop (UX6404) when the folks at ASUS agreed to send me one and partner up for this video. Of course, all opinions are my own, but we want to keep this completely unbiased, so I am going to show you actual testing. I have a lot of tests to show you, and some really might surprise you.
Please comment below with any questions you might have. Thank you all for watching! I appreciate you!
Disclaimer: This video was sponsored by ASUS. All opinions are my own.

14.5 inches
2880x1800
OLED nanoedge touchscreen
PANTONE validated for color accuracy
120Hz
16:10 aspect ratio
Clearer images at any brightness
2) ASUS Dialpad
Creator centric design, but also highly effective for engineering or other professions
3) Ports:
Thunderbolt 4
USB-c Gen 2
USB-A
3.5MM audio port
HDMI 2.1
SD 4.0 card slot - full size does not go flush
200W power supply
There is no ethernet port, but it comes with an adapter to USB-A
It also comes with a sleeve
3) Hinge test - one finger open/close
* hinge wobble test
4) Editing and exporting speed
Intel Core i9-13900H
NVIDIA GeForce RTX4060 8GB GDDR6
16GB or 32GB RAM

Things I noticed
Almost no bloatware. I rejected McAfee when I set it up and I muted one or two notifications but it is not nearly what many other laptops are.
Comes with a case
Battery life: about 8-9 hrs with video playback
Drawback: All type C ports are on one side
Drawback: fingerprints
The price is $1799 right now and I have a link below
Conclusion:
This is geared towards content creators with the great dislay, CPU, and GPU combo in a compact device that is easy to travel with or expand to a large desk setup with multiple displays

Hey Mike, that's a great review. I'm planning to buy one soon, but I'm worried about the 120Hz display potentially draining the battery fast if there's no dynamic refresh rate. I did some research and found that VRR requires WDDM 3.0 support. I'm wondering if the ZenBook with Intel Iris graphics supports this feature. Your response is appreciated! 😊

The 1 thing that really sucks is the power delivery. USB-C can now go over 200 watts for just power delivery, snd it is widly ignored. Having proprietary power adaptors is really inconvenient, especially since none of them are GaN and really bulky and inefficient. And both USB-C ports on the same side is annoying.

@@camblack524 This same point is bothering me as well. I hate proprietary bulky chargers. But as I understood the combined power usage of CPU+GPU is max 125watts so normally I think you can get away with 100 watts USB-C unless you are really pushing it 100% for a long time. In another test they measured average of 80-90 watts while gaming so in that case it would be just enough.

@@MatheKaroly So they make a 15in one and 14in Zenbook Pro Duo which came out last year. Mine was the 2021 model which is a 14in non pro Zenbook Duo. I haven't had any issues with switching off but mines not the newer pro model. Only issues I had was bottom gets hot and the Asus dual screen special software sometimes is buggy where the quick switch or window split options doesn't show. Other than that, still happy with the computer. Lenovo came out with a Yogabook 9i dual screen computer of you want two full screens but the Zenbook Duo is a more convenient package with a tactile keyboard, track pad, and screen built into the laptop without having to carry extra items. I also love the port selection variety that Asus offers instead of just USB c.

I felt like Asus didn't put too much effort into the design of this laptop compared to the ROG X-series; it feels like they just threw specs together but didn't really think about how it would be in real life. I couldn't enjoy using it compared to my X16, and the dial not making sense in practical usage just sunk it for me. I hope they revise it in the future with productivity in mind.

An before you get snappy my good friend I owned both and returned the ASUS. Reason one, the keyboard felt cheap and to soft. Second the screen can be as calibrated as they claim but it's not. I edited the same gallery on both and the ASUS was so off once I loaded it on a webpage from another device. My Mac color accuracy is flowless for my photo and videos editing needs. It looks identical once send out to a client.
