Besides that, it also features wide-view technology for clear images, which is useful when multiple users are looking at the screen from different angles. ZenBook 14 has a super-compact and lightweight metal chassis that is similar to many 13-inch models, giving users portability convenience. None of the timeless elegance that’s the ZenBook hallmark has been lost.

14.00":

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.
