Hey Chaps! If you have UNLIMITED money, what laptop would you buy right now?

CORRECTION: Tests against the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H featured the 2024 Huawei MateBook 14, not the MateBook X Pro (same chip, same 70Wh battery though).

[cheesestick]

love how you had to clarify that the benchmarks were run without cat

[DarkCloud]

So I guess we don‘t need ARM on Windows anymore?

[JISHNUKR]

Had Asus put a top firing speakers on that extra vacant space, add an extra type c port on the other side, capable of charging it and make the touchpad haptic, this laptop would've been the perfect laptop for me.

this looks like the DREAM laptop. only issue is the limited hinge which ruins the ability to comfortably draw on it

[Darth-TBAG]

I love Asus! they have the best customer service and RMA practices!😂

10:50 I think we need more cat review /benchmark😼

[shitstorm]

Interesting, the price is $300 difference in the US for the different models. And yes, the first thing I did was pull off the HDMI and Energy Saver sticker. They weren't even straight. It's all about presentation, ASUS.

4:15 That's why you need to focus while driving a car LOL

[rramnel]

Thx for the review. Is the display 10-bit?

[andrewcee]

Would you prefer this for video editing?

The battery life at 10ish hours in 2024 for a laptop like this is no longer on the green for me. With battery degradation, that number could quickly go down to 6-7 in as little as 3y of use.

Does the highest efficiency mode decrease the refresh rate? I wonder how much the battery life would improve in whisper plus 60hz.

I have a few ZenBooks in the past. what disappoint me the most is the build quality of the laptops. the chassis has creak sound everywhere not a solid build like the MacBook. i do not know about this model though. hope it is solid

[BoraHorzaGobuchul]

It's like notebook manufacturers are competing with each other on who makes the worst keyboard layout

[nhanNguyen-wofy]

Why don't they make that laptop 4mm thicker and make people impress by how cool is the keyboard under load.
Macbook pro 14 is not that thin. That's mean any thinner is just stupidity.

[typingcat]

I don't get it. Why waste the space? Why not put a key column on each side, for keys like Home End, etc and customisable hot keys? There is plenty of space, it won't skew the keyboard, and the users won't have to resort to stupid FN+arrow keys.

[Darx]

Diving board trackpads should stop existing

[isbestlizard]

OMG I love your cat, super pretty eye colour!

[mambofornasa]

Oh, I've waited for this particular review.The Zenbook S 16 looks stunning!!

[Silent_poet]

Stylus and touchscreen for a hinge that doesn't bend 180/360?
