REVIEWS ASUS ZENBOOK FLIP 13


Asus ZenBook Flip 13

PROS


  • Beautiful OLED screen.

  • Larger battery.

  • Very good single-core performance and graphics
    performance.
    CONS

  • No built-in 3.5mm audio jack.

  • Multi-core performance is off the pace.
    BOTTOM LINE
    The Asus ZenBook Flip 13 is a beautiful laptop that
    offers decent battery life, very good graphics, and
    a lot of pep for most of what you’d do on a small
    13-inch convertible laptop. It’s also the first laptop
    to remove the headphone jack, and that has us
    worried.
    $1,499


see how people react to this. There’s a very
good chance that this could be the
beginning of the end of the headphone port
on laptops.
Overall, the ZenBook Flip 13 is a
thin-and-light laptop that screams
premium. Of course, that premium feel,
performance and features come with
premium pricing. At $1,500 it feels a little
steep, but you are getting a beautiful
screen, standout design, and decent
performance. Plus, your laptop doesn’t
scream “me too” in a room full of Dell,
HP, and Apple.
