This is the new Asus Zenbook Pro and I wanted to find out why this was selling out everywhere. Now after using it for the past week, it is clear to me. This could very well end up being the perfect laptop for certain types of users and there are main reasons. Let me explain. So this laptop comes in a few configurations, but they are all pretty stacked with a powerful processor and graphics card while offering a very accurate display which really intrigued me. I was fortunate enough to get my hands on this 14inch OLED laptop (UX6404) when the folks at ASUS agreed to send me one and partner up for this video. Of course, all opinions are my own, but we want to keep this completely unbiased, so I am going to show you actual testing. I have a lot of tests to show you, and some really might surprise you.

Please comment below with any questions you might have. Thank you all for watching! I appreciate you!

Things I noticed

Almost no bloatware. I rejected McAfee when I set it up and I muted one or two notifications but it is not nearly what many other laptops are.

Comes with a case

Battery life: about 8-9 hrs with video playback

Drawback: All type C ports are on one side

Drawback: fingerprints

The price is $1799 right now and I have a link below

Conclusion:
This is geared towards content creators with the great dislay, CPU, and GPU combo in a compact device that is easy to travel with or expand to a large desk setup with multiple displays
