ASUS Zenbook S 16 [2024] - 1.1cm Thin and 1.5kg

[@Kianlewis445]

1.1cm is insane 🤯

[@michaeldwamena9615]

I'm shocked 😲

[@kafadek825]

Can't wait for the performance tests

[@MillhouseSpeaks]

Good to see you on the Gadget Show Podcast

[@SuperSaf]

Thanks! 😊

[@SirMo]

Wow. That's an impressive laptop. It also has RDNA3.5 so it should be decent at gaming. Definitely on top of my wish list right now for the new Strix Point AMD laptops. Looks like ASUS nailed it.

[@UncensoredDANNYDJANIE]

1.1cm is crazzyyyy .... i tot of getting the huawei mate x pro buh.. changed my mind.... im getting this

[@aneebaba06]

I'm thinking to preorder one but I've heard negative things about the customer support. Never had an ASUS before. In fact is in my eat Buy cart.

[@hteudys]

run away from Asus, i havebhad terrible experiences

[@Centronimation]

@@hteudys bro which are good ones then

[@eorzorian]

Everything is nicely done but i have some points: - small keys - no numpad in this size? - touch seemed way too big but it would have been more elegant to have it a little smaller(visually not appealing this way tbh) - lastly the price point of £1699 which will translate to 1699€ or more "without dGPU" is killing it for me. I have some more points but this can be only visible through tests since this isnt a review, i will leave it at that.

[@jonahwhite1306]

Seriously not understanding what all the hype about the size and weight are. 1.5 kg for this size laptop is not unheard of. LG's Gram series have been at it for some time now. I think their 16" model is around 1.3 kg. It also comes with an OLED display and a 10-key keypad. Perhaps the laptop is thinner? I don't know. But at a certain point, is that even a virtue? It seems to come at the expense of robustness and key travel.

[@MrMalam1234]

For those who travel it is a big deal, for home use get a PC, if you have a laptop, then it is likely you want it portable, common sense really..

[@jonahwhite1306]

@@MrMalam1234 I think you misread my comment? I understand the value of a portable laptop. I own several. But this guy, a paid promoter for Asus, is acting like the laptop is something new and phenomenal. It's not. LG's Gram series has been doing this for years. Same size screen (and also offered in OLED variants) and weighs about half a pound less.

[@carsonj4031]

Yeah the weight is not that impressive it weighs the same as my 14" gaming laptop. It is very thin though, thats impressive.

[@94535]

I don't really understand why so much negativity? Who hurt you? It's a paid promotion and he said that as loud as possible at the beginning itself, if you don't like it don't watch.

[@mariussm7797]

I travel a lot. I need something slip and light.

[@KejalKapadia]

The only thing I miss is the full-sized keyboard having both alpha-numeric keypads. Anyway, I love Asus Laptops, so I can't wait to have this one!

You just wait until Toshiba reveals what they've been working on. The world can't handle it right now. Too far ahead of the curve.

Are they still around?? I know in the 80's and 90's they certainly used to a be an authority in terms of laptops but than few years later they become rare

Price for the ryzen 365, 24GB ram and 1TB storage is 1699; and for the ryzen 370, 32GB ram and 2TB storage is 2099; officially written on the Asus homepage... Do you think the price will drop, since you claimed the cheaper one to have the higher specs?

[@sergebureau2225]

Looks like an amazing machine, I am anxious to have them on store

[@danyaal48]

Great video as always Saf and keep with the great work inshallah.

[@egileskilsson6452]

Really wanted 3200 x 2000 res screen, 2880 at x2 is a 1440 screen and that is a bit to big UI for a 16 inch screen. Eager to get test results for how the Radeon 890m performs in apps like Lightroom and Photoshop.

[@beastthegreat963]

windows laptops can do everything except one thing that is upward firing speakers. Macs have been doing it for ages

[@josephle2381]

This is a mba competitior and that laptop doesn’t have up for up firing speakers

[@carsonj4031]

I don't understand why more manufacturers put just a little bit of effort into the speakers. This was actually one of the big reasons why I bought an Asus g14, it actually has MacBook level speakers.

[@poppy913]

Saf, any thoughts on how it stack up against the Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i?

[@WarAlex16]

Only con for me, no USB C port on the other side of laptop. Boo. Excellent ports though

[@edwardnoble9897]

It might be the thinnest, but lightest? Not be a long shot. Don't get me wrong, it could be great if it has stratospherically good battery life and is really sturdy, but the Acer Swift Edge 16 has a 4k OLED and is only 1.17KG (over 20% lighter).

[@DePhpBug]

wow !! mind blowing !!

[@jhophoto5721]

Hello, I specialize in photography and photo editing. I recently found an ASUS ZenBook S 16 OLED while looking at several models as I needed a 16-inch laptop. I would appreciate it if you could rate this model to fit my needs. I'm mainly working on high resolution images using Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom. So display quality and performance are very important factors. I was wondering if this laptop could meet my requirements.

[@mipecz]

This is future and I want him right now just for my python coding lol! I don't give ** about his price. This is dream

[@MrKentoNion]

So cause of stupid ventilation holes placing I can't use this laptop closed in a dock with monitor I guess. Right!? Had same issue with old asus laptop on intel 7000 series (closed it everheated and shutdowns)

[@drm42]

@supersaf Can you please share if the ASUS Zenbook S 16 has a full aluminium body? I've read somewhere that the bottom is made out of plastic and that would really ruin the premium feel for me. Cheers

[@DaneReidVoiceOver]

Beautiful machine. Dell XPS is fast losing my business.

[@egileskilsson6452]

The new Dell XPS 16 are also much more expensive for lower spec.

[@adx69]

It supports PD charging? 65 watt cmf charger ?

[@catherine3010]

I love EVERYTHING but what do you mean it charges usb only + now powerport. I'm on the fence this is just SO expensive for something so breakable... as someone who has tripped and needed to replace a jack before :( what if I trip and it breaks the board

Majority of apps still made for x86. It will remain a safe choice for a longer time. They better start being more competitive with pricing tho or x elite takes over for most people.

@@shahmeerahmed6776when people buy laptops people want something that will last them for many years to come. of course X86 iss still around, ARM with the X pro/elite series hasn’t even been released yet but it will take off and take off fast. when Apple released the M series, intel macs were dead in water for laptops because they just cant match the performance to power efficiency. battery life is king on a portable
