A footnote in a press release published last month, the ZenBook UX425 will feature up to AMD Ryzen 7 4700U and Intel Core i7-1065G7 processors in a 13.9 mm thin chassis. Paired with a 1 W FHD display capable of reaching 450 nits and a 90% screen-to-body ratio, the Renoir ZenBook UX425 sounds like an excellent ultrabook for 2020.

Asus has let slip that it plans to release the UX325 and UX425, two additions to its ZenBook series. Mentioned in a press release published on April 6, 2020, Asus is yet to announce either device officially. 

According to the press release, the ZenBook UX425 will be "just 13.9 mm thin" and will weigh under" 1.15 kg". Additionally, the device will have an: 

energy-efficient FHD 1-watt, 450-nit display [that] has slim bezels on three sides for up to a 90% screen-to-body ratio, and an IR camera for fast face login on the top bezel.

Brought to our attention by @_rogame, the ZenBook UX425 will apparently be offered with a choice of Renoir and Ice Lake-U processors. Specifically, @_rogame claims that there will be a choice between the Ryzen 5 4500U, Ryzen 7 4700U and Core i7-1065G7. No other information is available at this time, but we would not rule out Asus equipping at least one version with a dedicated GPU.
