ASUS has introduced the all-new Zenbook S 14 (UX5406) in Singapore, a cutting-edge 14-inch AI-powered laptop that combines advanced technology with functional aesthetics. Designed with both performance and portability in mind, the Zenbook S 14 is one of the thinnest AI-enabled PCs on the market, measuring just 1.1 cm thick. This premium device boasts a chassis made from ASUS’s innovative Ceraluminum™ material, a high-tech ceramic hybrid that provides exceptional durability while resisting scratches and wear.
Available in nature-inspired colours, the Zenbook S 14 reflects ASUS’s dedication to blending elegance with state-of-the-art technology.
Powered by the latest Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 Processor 258V with AI capabilities, the Zenbook S 14 delivers an impressive computing experience with 32GB of RAM and Intel Arc™ graphics, achieving up to 47 NPU TOPS. The device is designed with precision CNC milling, allowing it to integrate an ultra-slim vapour chamber within its cooling system, which keeps noise levels below 25 dB while providing up to 28 watts of CPU TDP performance. The functional design also features a dedicated Copilot key for easy access to AI features and an enlarged 16:10 seamless touchpad that supports smart gestures, enhancing ease of use and productivity.
Engaging Audiovisuals and Advanced Features
The Zenbook S 14 is equipped with a 14-inch 3K 120 Hz ASUS Lumina OLED touch display, offering a cinematic visual experience with Pantone® Validation and DisplayHDR™ True Black 500 certification. This ensures lifelike visuals with deep blacks and vivid colours, thanks to the 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut. The four-speaker audio system, certified by Harman Kardon, delivers multi-dimensional Dolby Atmos® sound, making it perfect for immersive entertainment.
For security, the Zenbook S 14 is built with the Microsoft Pluton security processor, providing comprehensive protection by integrating hardware, firmware, and software. The laptop also features Windows Hello facial recognition for secure, password-free login, and adaptive features such as AiSense IR camera-powered Adaptive Lock, which locks the device when the user steps away, and Adaptive Dimming, which dims the screen when the user looks away.
Blending Art and Technology
The Zenbook S 14 is not only a powerhouse but also a design marvel. ASUS has spent four years perfecting the Ceraluminum™ material used in the chassis, creating a durable yet elegant design.
Precision CNC machining allows for the integration of a vapour-chamber cooling system, making this 1.1 cm thin device capable of housing advanced hardware while maintaining its sleek profile. The exclusive geometric grille design above the keyboard adds a touch of uniqueness, while the expanded touchpad complements the laptop’s 16:10 aspect ratio, offering users more space to navigate.
In keeping with sustainability, the optional laptop sleeve is crafted from GRS-certified recycled polyester, a material inspired by nature and designed to reduce environmental impact.
AI-Driven Performance and Connectivity
Under the hood, the Zenbook S 14 is powered by the latest Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 Processor 258V, delivering up to 28 watts of TDP performance. The system-on-chip (SoC) design reduces motherboard size by 27%, allowing for improved cooling efficiency. This design also incorporates low-power LPDDR5X DRAM, which shortens the distance between the CPU and memory for higher bandwidth and lower latency, ultimately enhancing performance and stability. The device features up to 32GB of fast RAM and a 1TB PCIe® 4.0 SSD, ensuring quick load times and ample storage.
The AI capabilities of the Zenbook S 14 extend to its user experience, with a dedicated Windows Copilot key on the ASUS ErgoSense keyboard for instant access to Windows AI features. The seamless touchpad with smart gestures makes adjusting settings such as volume and brightness a breeze. Connectivity is also top-notch, with two Thunderbolt™ 4 ports, a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port, HDMI® 2.1, and an audio combo jack, ensuring users have all the ports they need. The Zenbook S 14 supports WiFi 7 with ASUS WiFi Master Premium certification, providing fast and reliable wireless connections.
Efficient, Quiet Performance and Robust Security
The Zenbook S 14 is designed for efficient, quiet performance, thanks to its ultra-slim vapor-chamber cooling system and dual IceBlade fans, which maintain noise levels under 25 dB. This system also supports up to 28W TDP when needed, making it both powerful and quiet.
The geometric grille above the keyboard not only adds a stylish touch but also maximizes airflow and minimizes the ingress of dust and dirt.
Security is a key focus of the Zenbook S 14, with Windows passkeys and Microsoft Pluton providing robust protection against evolving cyber threats. The device’s AiSense IR camera supports facial recognition, allowing for secure and effortless login. Additional features such as Adaptive Lock and Adaptive Dimming enhance privacy by monitoring user presence and automatically locking or dimming the screen when necessary.
