80% Asus ZenBook 14 UX433FA review: Small on size, not on value
Source: It Pro Archive.org version
The so-called ‘world’s smallest 14in laptop’ may not have the best battery life, but it makes up for it with a smart, space-conscious design, decent performance and an attractively low pricetag.

If not for a lackluster screen, a bit of bloatware, and some minor quibbles around the touchpad, the ZenBook 14 would be setting a standard among the ultralight crowd. But it's still a solid little machine for the screen size and price.

Overall, the powerful innards, impressive display, a remarkably compact chassis and dogged performance make the laptop one of the best ultrabooks in 2019.

Asus Zenbook 14 Review: Sleeker, lighter and powerful!
Source: The Mobile Indian Archive.org version
The Asus Zenbook 14 is one of the best laptops from Asus. The notebook comes loaded with a sleek design and it is quite compact in nature. The display is sharp and provides an immersive viewing experience, though it is quite reflective in nature. The performance is top notch, though coil whine issue can bother some. The battery life is simply amazing. To conclude, if you are looking for a compact yet powerful laptop and budget is not a constraint then this can be considered as one option.

80% Asus ZenBook 14 review: A worthy competitor to MacBook Air
Source: India Today Archive.org version
The ZenBook 14 is a really good laptop. It has the looks and the performance in equal measures. It’s easy to live with on a daily basis -- the display is good, the audio is decent, the typing experience is satisfying for an ultrabook with the unique ErgoLift hinge. The compact form is extremely portable and, with a Core i7 processor, it can hang on even when the user demands some performance.

With similar specs to the Dell XPS 13 and the MacBook Air, the ZenBook 14 looks to be a good performer from Asus that takes some of the best bits from the ZenBook S and ZenBook Pro models from 2018.

Hands on: Asus ZenBook 14 review
Source: Techradar Archive.org version
The Asus ZenBook 14 takes the coolest features from the ZenBook S and ZenBook Pro that had debuted last year and crams them into a clever, little 14-inch laptop that straddles the line between both. For that, this is a kitchen sink of sorts that can appeal to several kinds of users.

The ZenBook 14 is one of the better ultraportables you can buy, but it's not quite the best.The main attraction is the laptop's compact chassis, which fits a 14-inch display in what is essentially the footprint of a traditional 13-inch laptop. And with a gorgeous military-tested dark-blue aluminum finish, the ZenBook 14 combines that convenience with durability and beauty.

Intel UHD Graphics 620: Integrated GPU (GT2, 24 EUs) found on some Kaby-Lake-Refresh CPU models (15 W ULV series). Technically identical to the previous Kaby-Lake GPU called HD Graphics 620.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.  

i7-8565U: Whiskey Lake based low power quad-core processor (technically identical to Kaby Lake but produced in a further improved 14nm++ process). The four cores are clocked between 1.8 and 4.6 GHz (Turbo Boost) and support HyperThreading.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

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.
