ASUS Zenbook 14 (UM3402) review – all-aluminum build and color-accurate 1600p display at an honest price
Source: Laptop Media
If the ASUS Zenbook 14 Flip OLED (UP3404) is too expensive for your needs, the Zenbook 14 (UM3402) is a great alternative that will not stretch your wallet too much. Still, it doesn’t come with transforming capabilities, and the powerful Intel Raptor Lake CPUs aren’t available as well. Aside from that, the laptop is a great bang for your bug and we’ll explain why. We spot bends and flexes here and there on the chassis but overall the rigidity is good. The I/O is wide enough for a thin device – three USB ports, an HDMI 2.1, and an SD Card reader. The upgrade options are the main cons of this laptop. The memory is soldered and the maximum amount of RAM is 16GB of LPDDR4X -4266MHz is dual-channel. There is just one M.2 Gen 3 slot. Of course, you can install a Gen 4 NVMe but its speed will be limited to the older standard. The ASUS Zenbook 14 (UM3402) is a compact and light laptop with a metal build, snappy hardware under the bonnet, comfortable input devices, a color-accurate PWM-free 1600p display, and a long-lasting battery.

90% Asus Zenbook 14 OLED review: outstanding screen, outrageous value
Source: Digital Trends
If you’re looking to spend less than $1,000 on a laptop and aren’t looking for a bargain-basement machine, then I’m not sure you’ll find a better laptop than the Zenbook 14 OLED. It’s fast enough for most users, has excellent battery life, is well-built with a great keyboard and touchpad, and its OLED display is excellent. In fact, you can spend hundreds more on a laptop and not get a better machine. The Zenbook 14 OLD is a true bargain, and it should be on everyone’s shortlist unless you need a lot more power.

80% Asus ZenBook 14 OLED (2023) Review: Ryzen 7000 Goes Toe-To-Toe With M2 MacBook Air
Source: Slashgear
Asus is, of course, trying to steal some thunder from Apple's MacBook Air, and has succeeded in that endeavor to a large extent. It has a terrific screen that is nigh unbeatable in this price segment. The port situation is far more generous than the MacBook Air, the light-up Numpad is a neat addition, and the keyboard is excellent, too. The AMD Ryzen 7 CPU inside offers reliable performance, and even though it isn't quite a direct match for the Apple M2, it can hold its own against every task that you can possibly accomplish on an Ultrabook. The battery life figures are great for a Windows machine, and Asus's software add-ons are also convenient. Overall, this is an excellent package for significantly less than $1,000 if the Windows ecosystem is where you want to thrive.

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.

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.
