Can I upgrade the RAM or SSD later?

The Ceraluminum™ material provides a premium look and feel, enhances durability, and contributes to the laptop's ultra-slim and lightweight profile while maintaining structural integrity.

Is the display suitable for professional color work?

Yes, the 3K ASUS Lumina OLED display covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and supports HDR True Black 500, making it excellent for professional photo and video editing that requires accurate color representation.

What is the battery life like in real-world use?

With a 72 Wh battery and power-efficient components, the Zenbook S 14 offers substantial battery life for typical productivity tasks. Specific longevity depends heavily on usage patterns, screen brightness, and active AI processing.

Does it support external monitors?

Yes, through its HDMI 2.1 port and the two Intel® Thunderbolt 4 ports, which support DisplayPort Alternate Mode, you can connect multiple high-resolution external displays.

What is the warranty period for this laptop?

Warranty information can vary by region. Please refer to the official ASUS website or the documentation included with your purchase for the specific warranty terms and duration.

Troubleshooting

Laptop not powering on

Ensure the AC adapter is securely connected to both the laptop and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. If the issue persists, contact ASUS support.

Wi-Fi connection unstable or slow

Restart your router and modem. Ensure Wi-Fi drivers are up-to-date. Move closer to the Wi-Fi router. Check if other devices experience similar issues. Update to Wi-Fi 7 compatible router if available for optimal performance.

Display flickering or distorted

Update your Intel graphics drivers from the ASUS support website. Ensure the display cable (if applicable for external monitors) is securely connected. If the problem persists, try connecting an external monitor to isolate the issue.

Touchscreen not responding

Restart the laptop. Check for Windows updates. Ensure the touchscreen drivers are installed and up-to-date via Device Manager or the ASUS support site. Clean the screen with a soft, dry cloth.

Overheating or loud fan noise

Ensure the laptop's air vents are not blocked. Clean any dust buildup from the vents using compressed air. Close unnecessary background applications, especially those heavily utilizing the CPU or NPU. Consider using a cooling pad if heavy workloads are common.
