In the case of the Asus ZenBook 13 though, you really can't go wrong. This is a great machine with a wonderful display and performance that's very nearly as good as Apple's M1 MacBooks—for $400 less.

Archive.org versionIf you mainly need your laptop for casual tasks like media consumption, light work, and even some minor gameplay, the ZenBook 13 UM325 can definitely do the job. Moreover, it has a very good performance, considering its low-power processor, and the battery life of more than almost 14 hours of Web browsing and 15 hours of video playback will definitely get you through the day.

Archive.org versionMuch like the Intel variants available so far, this AMD-based ZenBook 13 UM325 is a good portable everyday ultrabook. The competent AMD hardware and the OLED screen are its main selling-points, alongside the all-metal construction, long battery life, and fair pricing, while the cramped keyboard is still its major quirk. Just make sure you choose the AMD configuration that best suits your needs, and understand the particularities of an OLED laptop panel, so you won't end up with any unwanted surprises long-term.

AMD Vega 7: Integrated graphics adapter of the Ryzen APUs based on the Vega architecture with 7 CUs (= 448 shaders) and a clock speed of up to 1,600 MHz.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

R5 5500U: A hexa-core APU designed for use in ultra-thin, upper mid-range laptops. The Ryzen features six Zen 2 CPU cores running at 2.1 GHz to 4.0 GHz alongside the Vega 7 graphics adapter (448 unified shaders running at up to 1,800 MHz). One could be forgiven for thinking Ryzen 5 5500U is a renamed Ryzen 5 4500U - which is not the case. Ryzen 5 5500U is most similar to Ryzen 5 4600U, the most noteworthy difference between the two being the faster iGPU model of the former.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
