Asus Zenbook Flip 14 Review: Design and Build

Ultrabook means that you can use your device at any angle. The hinge given in the Zenbook Flip 14 supports 360-degree rotation, that is, you can use the device as a tablet too.

With just 1.3 kg in weight, the Flip 14 feels light and you can easily carry it with a lot due to your tablet usage.

The device is made of metal material, due to which the build quality looks quite strong. Personally speaking, Asus could give a slightly more trendy style to its design. On the top lid in the laptop, you can also be given a texture that would make it more beautiful. Also, fingerprints are easily marked on the laptop.

Asus Zenbook Flip 14 review: display and keyboard

The biggest feature of this hybrid ie Zenbook is its display. Here you are given a 14-inch touch screen. According to the company, this display supports a 100% sRGB color spectrum and a 178-degree angle of view.

It is good to see multimedia content on display. Touch and swipe response is also much better. If I say a drawback, the display is quite glossy due to which there can be some difficulty in viewing content.

With this, I would definitely say that next time Stylus must be sent with the laptop because if all the things are not used in one review then the review cannot be called complete.

Just above the display, a front-facing camera with HD resolution is provided for video calls. With this camera, the face-unlock feature is also available on the laptop. This face unlocking feature works well, but if you are wearing an accessory on the face, then there can be a slight problem.

The 1.4mm travel space on the keyboard proves to be quite ideal for typing. But the arrow-buttons given here are quite small which cannot be used fast. Also, the keyboard's backlight could have been a little brighter. The four-finger smart gesture feature also works quite well.

Asus Zenbook Flip 14 review: Performance and battery

When it comes to performance, in Zenbook Flip 14 you do not have any problem in doing professional work like email, browsing, multimedia content, typing work, etc. The laptop has an AMD Ryzen 7-3700U processor built on the 12nm architecture. Integrated AMD Radeon RX Vega 8 graphics and 8GB 2400MHz DDR4 RAM are also available here with a better processor.

Asus Zenbook Flip 14 is not a gaming laptop, so high-end gaming is not right here. You cannot even expect much gaming due to a dedicated graphics card. Some normal games available on the Window Store such as Asphalt 9 can be played easily.

Even if you want to do gaming, then the laptop battery will not meet your expectation. In my opinion, Ultrabooks should be introduced in the market with a good battery backup as we only know Ultra-Book as portable. According to Asus, the laptop is able to give you 9 hours of backup but in my tests, it supports 4 hours of office work.

Asus Zenbook Flip 14 Review: Verdict

As the name suggests, the Zenbook can be flipped and used quite comfortably. It takes a little bit to use it as a tablet, but after using it for some time, you get used to it. It is quite light in weight. Along with the AMD Ryzen 7 processor, the company has also taken note of its design.

If you want more battery backup and some trendy design at a price of Rs 64,990, then you can also look at Lenovo Yoga or Lenovo Ideapad, but if you want an attractive display and office work machine with Asus branding, then it proves to be a much better option.
