Thin and Powerful? ASUS ZenBook 14 (UX433F) Laptop Review

The ASUS ZenBook 14 is a thin, light and portable laptop with some fair specs that look alright for light gaming, so let’s find what’s on offer in this detailed review and if it’s worth it. I’ll be looking at everything including battery life, thermals, fan noise, gaming performance and everything in between.

4:30 this is a sticker. remove it and the numbers are gone during normal use

[yangyangaditya]

for your information, that number printed on the numpad is just a sticker. You can simply peel it off and get the smooth feel trackpad.

Great review! I have this laptop and love it, but why didn't you take the sticker off of the trackpad? The sticker is there to show you how the numpad feature works but isn't supossed to stay on the trackpad

I bought one for use at uni. I7. Mx150 and the 512gb ssd. I absolutely love it.
In terms of gaming I tend to just use my custom built desktop, the Asus runs older games just fine

Always come here for laptop reviews and yet another amazing and detailed review

[imtalgiewbu]

hi! actually im looking for a laptop for uni, will this be able to handle civil softwares like autocad, revit etc? do help me out

[thk]

I'm glad that I didn't buy this laptop at first, now I am sure I made correct decision after watching your video. A really detailed video for the performance benchmark and real life gaming test, great job mate!
I bought Ideapad 530s in the end, with MX150 and I5 8250U, even with dual fans it also has similar throttling issues with gaming, although it is not that bad compare to this laptop, still playable with low to mid settings in 720p and 1080p.

got so used to gaming laptops feels weird watching this

Was looking at the updated AMD 3700U model. Appreciate your honesty and good detailed review 👍

[ScorpioPluto]

This is the kind of review that I'm looking for, I hope you review the UX392 or the UX533 also.

I gotta say, ASUS laptops are one of the most long-term lasting laptops one could buy. Those limitations really go a long way. Had a ux333 for almost two years and I swear I can still get-by with a 60% charge. Mime doesn't have a mx150 as I wanted a reliable productivity machine nor does it have the numberpad. It has a matte screen in a wonderful royal blue tone.

Hey! I only need a laptop for programming and streaming purposes. I only play 2 games : Rocket League and CSGO. Will this laptop be able to handle both these games? ( They aren't very system demanding)

[JANDRESBOYACA]

Have you had problems with the performance of the machine? I know that it is not a gaming laptop but basic games are not constant in FPS, I am not even able to adjust the overwatch, I have already set all the windows settings to maximum but always it uses 20% of the MX150

[parisamohammadi]

I have a question. I am an mechanical engineer. I wonder if this laptop works for me? I use programs suck as Solid, Abaqus, catia and....
Thank you for your answer

[josipp]

1.6 processor is it fast enough and is it good for programming and some gaming?

[jennywilliams]

Great review! I want to buy a new laptop and I'm between this one or the hp envy 13.3", which one is better?

[RabihSaadguitars]

there is a good used one for 450$ canadian roughly the same in Australian dollsrs... want to use it for video editing in 1080p, 2k and 4k...is it gonna do the job you think?

[daxfitz]

Great video, I heard the touchpad does not work properly, have things improved?

[grahamjones]

Can you turn off a setting or have a cooling mat to make gaming decent? :) Like if you turn quite fan off will it be better

[revanthkamaraj]

Hi.Thanks for the video..I recently purchases Zenbook 14 with same ryzen 5 processor and other specs... i feel a little tattling sound on the touch pad(clicking sound whenever I move my fingers and remove them and touch again)....is that normal or anything you can help ?
