Reviews for the Asus ZenBook 13 OLED UM325UA-DS71

80% Asus Zenbook 13 OLED review: An excellent value
Source: Tom's Guide English
The AMD-equipped Asus Zenbook 13 OLED is an excellent value, offering an eye-catching 1080p OLED display and exceptional battery life in a slim, lightweight package for less than a thousand bucks. Sure, the speakers aren't amazing, the webcam leaves something to be desired, and there's no headphone jack, but these are stumbling blocks you can work around. If you need a zippy little ultraportable with a great screen that will last you all day long, you can't do better than the OLED-equipped Asus Zenbook 13 at this price. Alternatively, you could get the Intel-equipped model if you like the idea of having Thunderbolt 4 ports and Wi-Fi 6 (this AMD model is still Wi-Fi 5), but I can't vouch for the performance or battery life of those laptops.

80% Asus ZenBook 13 OLED review: The perfect ultrabook experience
Source: India Today English
The Asus ZenBook 13 OLED is among the pricey ones. You will have to pay Rs 99,990 for the top-end model of the ZenBook 13 OLED. At this price, you have the MacBook Air, the Microsoft Surface Pro 7, among others to choose from. While the Asus ZenBook 13 OLED processor is good, the Apple M1 is among the best performers right now. So, where exactly does the ZenBook 13 OLED stand in the crowd?

Model:

The latest to join the Asus ZenBook family is none other than the Asus ZenBook 13 OLED UM325UAZ Ryzen 5. First of all, in terms of its design, this model is quite easy to be carried around and looks good on a desk, weighing in at a trim 2.5 pounds and measuring just 11.98 x 7.99 x 0.55 inches. Physically, it is grey and matte all over except the lid, which sports a fingerprint-attracting spun-metal finish replete with offset Asus logo. Once opened, there is a beautiful 1080p OLED display surrounded by nice thin 4.4mm bezels on either side. It is worth mentioning that the top and bottom bezels are a little thicker (6.5mm and 12.9mm, respectively), but are still small enough that it is easy to forget about them while focusing on the screen.

When the device is opened on a flat surface, the back of the keyboard tends to lift up slightly, which is a result of the Zenbook’s ErgoLift hinge. Well, according to Asus, by designing the bottom lip of the screen housing to stick out beneath the laptop and push its rear up a few degrees, it will create a more ergonomic typing position and improved cooling and speaker performance. As far as its display is concerned, the 13.3-inch 1080p OLED display is one of the major selling points of this Zenbook, and in person it obviously looks nice and vibrant. It is rather rare to find an OLED screen in a laptop at this price and it does a great job too, of helping contrasts stand out, achieving nice deep blacks as well as bright, saturated colours. In terms of its connectivity, the Asus Zenbook 13 OLED sports a pretty respectable array of ports for a 13-inch ultraportable, with one caveat, there is no headphone jack. However, there is still a USB-C port to 3.5mm adapter packed in with the laptop, which can be used for wired headphones if one is willing to sacrifice the use of one USB-C port. Overall, there are two USB-C ports (which are also Thunderbolt 4 ports, on the Intel-equipped models of Zenbook 13) along the left edge of the laptop, with an HDMI port for hooking up an external display.

As for its performance, in addition to being quite power-efficient, the AMD Ryzen 7 5700U CPU driving this model proved more than powerful enough to tackle daily computing tasks without breaking a sweat. In terms of its keyboard, with well-spaced keys that have 1.4 mm of travel, the keyboard is quite comfortable to type on. Also, there is no fingerprint reader or other fancy tech hiding in the keyboard. In addition, the touchpad beneath the keyboard is wide and easy to use. This model also comes with an incredible 15-hour battery life. Overall, it is a great device to be explored, depending on the need and preference of the user.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
