The new ultrathin powerhouse ASUS Zenbook S 16 has officially launched in Singapore so let’s see what it has in store.
Sporting a super sleek and classy look, the redesigned chassis is made of Ceraluminum which is a kind of ceramic hybrid material that is both scratch-resistant and durable to give the best balance of design and durability.
The entire system is supported by the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 processor with Radeon 880M iGPU and Ryzen AI NPU with 50 TOPs performance. Cooling it off is a vapor chamber system that is delicately crafted to be thin and thermally efficient just to maintain the form factor while chilling the 28W CPU.
The 3K 120 Hz ASUS Lumina OLED display makes a return for stunning visuals and exceptional color accuracy of 100% DCI-P3 with PANTONE Validated certification in addition to the six-speaker Harman Kardon-certified audio system for an immersive experience no matter the medium.
You also have the “2024 AI laptop must have” Windows Copilot Key that sits within the ASUS ErgoSense keyboard just above the large touchpad that is 40% larger. Aside from the usual security and privacy features including ASUS AiSense IR camera supporting Windows Hello logins, the I/O ports are very rounded – 2x USB4 Type-C, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, HDMI 2.1, an SD card reader, and an audio combo jack.
Oh, it also can connect to WiFi 7 access points if your home or any location is running one.
