What Hardware and Architecture Choices Does the Zenbook 14 Offer?

The ASUS Zenbook 14 UX3480 series provides three distinct silicon architectures—Intel Core Ultra Series 3, AMD Ryzen AI 300, and Qualcomm Snapdragon X—inside an ultralight 1.1kg Ceraluminum chassis. It pairs a 14-inch FHD+ OLED display with up to 50 TOPS of neural processing compute for Windows Copilot+ workloads.

ASUS manufactures the chassis using proprietary Ceraluminum, a ceramicised aluminium material engineered to resist fingerprints, smudges, and surface abrasions during daily commutes. Hardware configurations vary by processor family across four distinct price tiers:

  • Intel variants (Core Ultra 7 355 at RM6,499; Core Ultra 5 325 at RM5,899) feature a 14-inch FHD+ OLED touchscreen and a larger 70WHr battery providing over 21 hours of operational endurance.
  • The AMD variant (Ryzen AI 5 330 at RM5,099) incorporates a non-touch FHD+ OLED panel paired with a 50WHr battery.
  • The Qualcomm variant (Snapdragon X X1-26-100 at RM4,599) includes a non-touch FHD+ OLED panel and a 50WHr battery.

All Zenbook 14 models incorporate 16GB of LPDDR5X memory, 512GB PCIe 4.0 SSD storage, a 1.7 mm key-travel keyboard, a smart-gesture touchpad, Windows Hello facial recognition, Microsoft Pluton hardware security, and ambient adaptive dimming sensors. The range is offered in Arctic Blue, Komodo Coral, and Zabriskie Beige colourways.

The Zenbook 14 UX3480 integrates up to 50 TOPS of NPU acceleration into a 1.1kg Ceraluminum frame across Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm platforms.

How Do the Vivobook S14 and S16 Deliver Extended Battery Life and OLED Displays?

The ASUS Vivobook S14 and Vivobook S16 achieve up to 30 hours of continuous runtime by pairing Qualcomm Snapdragon X processors with power-efficient 16:10 cinema-grade OLED screens. Both machines feature all-metal unibody enclosures compliant with MIL-STD 810H durability standards, operating at thermal design power profiles scaling up to 30W.

Configured specifically for academic workloads and mobile multitasking, the Vivobook S14 (S5408Q) and Vivobook S16 (S5608Q) utilize the Qualcomm Snapdragon X (X1-26-100) platform equipped with a 45 TOPS NPU engine. ASUS Performance Mode allows dynamic scaling up to a 30W TDP to handle sustained application workloads. The internal 50WHr battery supports fast charging, restoring 60% capacity in 49 minutes.

Visual output is handled by 100% DCI-P3 OLED panels certified by TÜV Rheinland for low blue light emissions, offering an 87% screen-to-body ratio on the 14-inch version and an 89% ratio on the 16-inch variant. The 14-inch model weighs from 1.28kg, and both sizes are sold in Light Blue and Matte Gray finishes with 16GB LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB PCIe 4.0 SSD storage.

Qualcomm Snapdragon X silicon powers the Vivobook S series to deliver up to 30 hours of continuous endurance and 45 TOPS of AI compute.
