ASUS ZenBook 14e (2021) Intel Core i5-1135G7 11th Gen 14.0 inches FHD, 8GB/512GB SSD/Office 2019/Windows 10/2GB NVIDIA MX450 Graphics Thin and Light Business Laptop (Grey/1.29 kg), UX435EG-AI501TS

Performance for everyday tasks - 10/10Performance for gaming - 4/10Camera( laptop standards ) - 7/10Battery life - 8/10Charging speed - 10/10Build quality -10/10Premium feel and looks -10/10Screenpad -10/10Screen quality - 9/10( because it is glossy and sometimes reflects but picture quality is top notch)Keyboard tactile- 10/10Speaker quality -7/10I shifted from macbook to zenbook and the only thing I found missing was the loud speakers on macbook. Speaker clarity is fine but u can find them to be not loud enough at times. Everything else,to me, was superior.The screenpad really helps so it's not just a sales gimmick.Battery life not as good as the new MacBooks but still good enough for me. The build quality along with the amazing screen to body ratio with the screenpad, windows hello, great keyboard, fast usb c charging, compact design and tons of other stuff makes this laptop a great one.

The media could not be loaded. I'll start by directly stating it in a point pros/cons format -Pros-1. Such beauty! Its so damn gorgeous, it'll be a head-turner wherever you go. The sleek build, all metal construction, edge-to-edge display and that screenpad makes sure that this laptop is noticed. You'll love the premium looking Asus branded sleeve that you get with it alongside, I say premium looking sleeve cause the quality of the sleeve provided is not as good as the looks.2. Pixel sharp screen! though on paper the screen boasts a FHD resolution, but Asus trickery and TUV certification makes sure that the display is crisp and text is clear and sharp. Watching movies and high-res pics is a delight and even after long duration of work on it, your eyes wont hurt, thanks to the built-in TUV certified minimum blue-light emissions. (You really dont need a blue light filter specs with this laptop)3. The Screenpad itself! It comes in handy while working, multitasking or using the numpad. 14 inch laptops dont feature a numpad, but the screenpad makes sure that you dont miss out on one, while still being a great touchpad (not as great as an Apple Macbook though). The display on screenpad is even better, same quality as the main screen but a higher resolution so that reading texts is not a difficult task., touch is as precise as your smartphone and you can use the functionality of both screenpad and touchpad simultaneously.Cons -1. The powerhouse! featuring a i5-1135G7 with 512GB and 8GB ram, its not sufficient. It's 2021 and a 16GB ram is a must nowadays, also since Win 11 is just round the corner. I can live with i5 and 512GB SSD, but 8 GB ram is not enough. What makes the matters worse is, these ultra light weight laptops dont have a SODIMM slot for an upgradable RAM. So, either you shell out an extra 40k for the i7/1TB/16GB variant, or live with 8GB.2. The 135 degree limitation! Though this has a benefit of getting those super cool ergonomic hinges (aids in better cooling and better sound performance), this limits the flexibility of working while I'm sleepy!! I cannot work while I'm just lying around on my bed and this laptop on my lap. 15-30 mins is ok, but post that, a seating position will be more comfortable.3. The price tag! As I already stated that the specs sheet is a bit on the lower side, thus this laptop should be priced a bit less. What I feel is, Asus is charging a lot for making this - (a) The world's smallest 14 inch laptop, (b) That gorgeous screenpad, (c) Super light weight and sleek body.Consider this, (This Asus vs Any similar specced Dell/HP) This laptop is more of a Lexus ES300h, rather than a Toyota Camry. Both are probably the same cars, but Lexus is a bit better in every way along with being one of the most beautiful sedans on the road, but demands a price for that.Some trivial points -1. There is no fingerprint scanner on it. Instead, it gets a IR eye-scanner which works amazingly well irrespective of light conditions.2. The internal SSD provided is from Samsung and although I don't remember the model right now, it's one of the fastest ones out there.3. International models get a type-c to Rj45 connector in the box, India doesn't.4. Asus has bundled this laptop with a lifetime MS office home and student and 1 year McAfee Antivirus. Great job!!!5. I bought 3 year extended warranty at 2500, 1 year ADP at 500 and 1TB external HDD at 2000 all from Asus website post the delivery of this laptop. (Asus-website ongoing offer)I loved this laptop as is, and thank-you Amazon for the timely and safe delivery of my laptop.

I have purchased this laptop after researching a lot and found this one unique compare to even mac. Macbook is no1 but for high configuration you need to spend more so I selected this one as it was looking awesome with its screenpad which is obviously a new thing in laptop. I have upgraded windows os to windows 11 home single language. Every thing is looking nice and wonderful but the issue is Screen pad is not working as it should. It worked perfectly fine when I switched on the laptop first time but I don’t know if due to any updates or anything, it is not working properly or I am unable to set it up. I tried to check youtube and did some r&d and i made it work but when I switched on the laptop very next time it again started the same thing. I don’t know what to do now. I have disabled the screen pad but the major thing for purchase this laptop was screenpad and its unique design. 😑😒

These is the product review so rating with 5 star because it deserve. Superb performance and value for money. This kind of Laptop now discontinued by Asus now.Screen Pad is really amazing and useful.Unfortunately I sent it back because seller sent me refurbished laptop on buying of a new one. I ordered it from elsewhere and experiencing amazing.

speaker volume is extremely poor

not to waste your money on this laptop complete waste of time and money
