Asus Zenbook Pro 14 OLED laptop review: MacBook Pro rival with 120 Hz OLED display

With its new Zenbook Pro 14, Asus is offering a powerful multimedia notebook for content creators, thus putting it in direct competition with the Apple MacBook Pro 14. In addition to the current Raptor Lake processors from Intel, Asus installs the new RTX GPUs from Nvidia, whereby our test device even has the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop installed. One special feature is the screen, which is a 2.8K OLED touchscreen with 120 Hz.
However, all this hardware comes at a price - our test device with a Core i9 13900H, an RTX 4070, 32 GB RAM and a 2 TB SSD costs a whopping EUR 3,500 (~US$3,750) and is therefore priced directly against the MacBook Pro 14 (M2 Max). 14-inch devices with these performance values are rare, which is why we also list some 15-inch models as comparison devices.

Case - Zenbook with sturdy metal chassis
Visually, the new Zenbook Pro 14 looks quite restrained and there is only a small ProArt logo on the display lid. Asus does not add any other visual elements otherwise. The surfaces are smooth, which quickly results in fingerprint smudges and the regular wiping away of these. The notebook appears very elegant in the dark color Tech Black, but the manufacturer stickers on the palm rest are massively annoying. The large sticker with the laptop's features on the right side can be easily removed, but the four smaller stickers on the left side cannot. Who wants an Amazon Alexa sticker on their device when you've paid EUR 3,500 (~US$3,750) for it?
Asus uses a metal chassis and both the base unit and the display lid are extremely stable and torsion-resistant. The base unit also looks quite slim, which is made possible by the tapered sides. This is in stark contrast to the Apple MacBook Pro 14, for example, in which the base unit appears very bulky, although it is actually thinner than the Zenbook. This is definitely not an extremely thin notebook, but this is not a point of criticism in view of the powerful components.
The two display hinges are well adjusted, but cannot completely prevent a certain teetering when changing the opening angle. The maximum opening angle is ~135 degrees. The screen edges of the 16:10 panel are very narrow, especially on the sides, and the overall screen-to-body ratio is a good 85%.
In a direct comparison, the MacBook Pro 14 in particular is somewhat more compact in all areas, but there are no large differences in weight. Due to the high-performance hardware, some 15-inch devices in our comparison field naturally require a little more desk space. The included 200-watt power supply adds an additional 556 grams to the scales.
Equipment - Asus installs all important ports
Since the rear area of the base unit is occupied by the cooling, the connections are distributed over the middle of both sides. Using all ports at the same time may result in a workplace that appears very cramped. Nevertheless, Asus provides all the important ports, including USB-A, USB-C and HDMI. The rear USB-C port also supports Thunderbolt and should also be used if you want to work on an external monitor, since this is the only way to use the iGPU on the external monitor. The other USB-C port and the HDMI output always use the dedicated GPU, which consumes unnecessary power, especially in simple tasks.
SD Card Reader
The Zenbook offers a fully-fledged SD card reader that also achieves very high transfer rates. In conjunction with our reference card (Angelbird AV Pro V60), we recorded maximum transfer rates of more than 250 MB/s and a little over 100 MB/s when copying image files.

Communication
Wireless network connections are handled by Intel's AX211 module, which supports Bluetooth 5.2 in addition to the current Wi-Fi 6E standard. We were unable to connect to the corresponding 6 GHz network of our Asus reference router, but performance in the 5 GHz network was very good and we had no issues with WLAN. A USB Ethernet adapter for wired networks is also included in the scope of delivery.

Webcam
Asus installs a 1080p sensor in the upper screen bezel for the webcam. The picture quality is a little better than the old 720p models, but you should not expect miracles. An IR module is also installed, which enables facial recognition via Windows Hello.

Maintenance
Input Devices - Touchpad with DialPad
Keyboard
The keyboard offers a key travel of 1.4 mm and offers average input overall. Considering the thickness of the case and also the price, more could have been done here, especially since the keys tend to rattle a little overall. For example, we liked the keyboard of the ROG Zephyrus G14 (1.7 mm travel) better. In terms of layout, you also have to get used to the single-row Enter key as well as the small arrow keys. Lastly, there is a three-stage white backlight that can be activated via sensor.
Touchpad & Stylus
Asus has devised a special feature for the touchpad, namely the so-called DialPad, which is installed in the upper left corner. This ring gives the user additional options and the integration with Adobe apps works very well. In everyday use, for example, the brightness and volume can be adjusted here. This all works well, but the dedicated special keys and shortcuts in creative apps usually work faster.
Moreover, you notice the raised ring during simple operation of the pad, which works well overall, but clicks a little loudly. Of course, the capacitive touchscreen can also be used as an option, and an active stylus is also included, which also made a good impression, especially when editing images.
Display - 120 Hz OLED touchscreen
Asus equips the Zenbook Pro 14 with a high-resolution OLED touchscreen. The resolution of the 14.5-inch panel (16:10) is 2880x1800 and the subjective picture impression fundamentally very good, but the picture quality is slightly grainy due to the touchscreen. Screen activity is very smooth thanks to the high frequency.
In the technical data, the manufacturer specifies a brightness of 400 cd/m² or a maximum of 550 cd/m² for HDR content. However, the panel does not quite reach that in our measurements, as we determined an average of almost 360 cd/m² for normal SDR content (i.e. everyday things). The contrast ratio is extremely high, which is due to the low black level. In terms of HDR content, we recorded a maximum of 584 cd/m² with a small bright image section and around 460 cd/m² with an almost completely white image.
Windows' HDR settings are deserving of criticism, because in order for HDR content to be really shown, HDR must first be activated in the settings. However, all color profiles are then discarded altogether and the various color profiles of the MyAsus software are no longer available. Apple's implementation of HDR in the MacBook Pro 14's mini-LED panel is clearly superior here and much higher brightness values are also reached.

* ... smaller is better
We measured the OLED panel with professional CalMAN software (i.e. X-Rite i1 Pro 2) using the default Native profile as well as Display P3. Colors appear a little oversaturated in the Native profile, which results in even more vivid image quality, but some colors overshoot the important limit of 3. The Display P3 profile, on the other hand, provides extremely accurate colors and allows for direct image/video editing. We were unable to improve the display further with our own calibration, which is why the corresponding profile for download is not provided here. An sRGB profile is also available. The P3 color space is completely covered.

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
Screen flickering / PWM detected | 240 Hz | ||
The display backlight flickers at 240 Hz (Likely utilizing PWM) . The frequency of 240 Hz is relatively low, so sensitive users will likely notice flickering and experience eyestrain at the stated brightness setting and below. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 18683 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured. |
The OLED panel's response times are very fast, but we detected PWM flickering at all brightness levels. DC dimming is used down to a brightness level of 50%, and classic PWM with a frequency of 240 Hz is used below that. Asus itself advises not to go below this brightness and to use the flicker-free OLED dimming function in the MyAsus software instead. We discussed this in detail in the review of the Zenbook S 13 OLED and the functionality is identical here.
Performance - Core i9 & RTX 4070 Laptop GPU
The Zenbook Pro 14 is only available with the Intel Core i9-13900H and 16 GB of RAM is soldered. A SODIMM slot is available, which is equipped with either 16 or 32 GB of RAM, depending on the model. As for the graphics card, you have the choice between the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop and the RTX 4070 Laptop, of which the latter is installed in our test device.
Testing Conditions
There are three different performance modes in the MyAsus software: Whisper, Standard and Performance. The table below shows the TDP/TGP values of the modes. We used Performance mode for the following benchmarks and measurements, since the graphics performance of the GeForce GPU in particular is otherwise significantly lower. In everyday life, however, you can easily use one of the other two modes without issue. The Zenbook also has a MUX switch that can be used to completely disable the integrated GPU. However, switching requires a system reboot.

---|---|---|---|---|---|
Whisper | 45 watts | 35 watts | CPU: 25 watts GPU: 35 watts |

Performance | 120 -> 90 watts | 90 watts | CPU: 30 watts GPU: 75 watts |
19.014 points | 11.398 points |
Processor - Intel Core i9 13900H
The Intel Core i9-13900H is a high-end mobile processor with 6 performance cores and 8 efficiency cores, which is why a total of 20 threads can be processed at any given time. Apart from the slightly higher clock rate, however, there are no differences to the Core i9-12900H. The performance in the Zenbook Pro 14 is very good thanks to the high power limits, although it must also be stated here that the Intel chip is only marginally faster than the new AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS with 80 watts, despite the significantly higher power consumption. In our CB R15 multi-loop, the i9-13900H drops to 90 watts after a few runs, where it is also slower than the 7940HS.
Cinebench R15 Multi Sustained Load
On the other hand, the single-core performance of the performance cores is still very good: we see an advantage of around 15% over the current AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS here. The main rival Apple MacBook Pro 14 is clearly at a disadvantage in terms of raw CPU performance, but the power consumption of 34 watts is also significantly lower. The MacBook also has the advantage that performance remains constant in battery mode. The Zenbook's CPU, however, drops to a meager 30 watts without the power supply, resulting in a performance loss of around 45% in multi-core tests. More CPU benchmarks are listed in our tech section.

Storage Devices
Our test device is equipped with the Micron 3400 NVMe SSD, which offers a storage capacity of 2 TB (of which 1.79 TB is available after the first start-up). It is a fast PCIe 4.0 SSD, although the devices from Samsung and SK Hynix achieve slightly higher transfer rates. But this does not play a major role in everyday use; it is much more important that performance remains stable under sustained load. More SSD benchmarks are listed here.
