It takes the brand’s signature qualities of ultraportable design, sustainability and on-the-go performance to a new level, proving conclusively that less can be more.
ASUS Zenbook S 13 OLED – Design and Specs
The laptop features a super-slim 1 cm profile and a super-light 1 kg chassis. Regardless of the slim nature, the Zenbook S 13 OLED delivers no-compromise performance, connectivity and battery life. this makes it the epitome of ultraportable design. It is also finished in brand-new Basalt Gray or classic Ponder Blue and designed with the environment and carbon neutrality firmly in mind. The company uses
- recycled metals and plastics in its construction
- FSCTM Mix-certified packaging
- an elegant new eco-friendly plasma ceramic aluminum for the Basalt Gray model
- halogen-free electronics
This makes it the most eco-friendly Zenbook model ASUS has ever produced.To achieve the super-slim 1 cm profile and super-light 1 kg weight of Zenbook S 13 OLED, several advanced techniques and materials are used in its design and construction. For example using circuit boards with fewer layers and a higher wiring density, with many more transistors. This gives it better performance with less weight in a more compact space. The motherboard is precision-engineered to house an additional, ultrathin fan that increases airflow for better cooling. This makes the lower part of the laptop about 25% slimmer.
