Zenbook

Zenbook A14

The Zenbook A14 is a brilliant piece of hardware – which I’ve been using for a couple of weeks and you can check out our full review here. 

It’s a good looking piece of kit, but it’s got some grunt too. Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Series processors, it eats up any work on the web or in Office, as well as bringing a good media playback experience with the bright 14” OLED display. The Qualcomm Snapdragon also brings exceptionally good battery life. 

The Snapdragon X Series processors also include the  Hexagon NPU capable of up to 45 Trillion Operations Per Second (TOPS), making them AI ready, with Microsoft building experiences for AI into Windows thanks to the CoPilot+ platform. 

The Zenbook A14 is super light, weighing in at under 1kg, and looks great in two colour options: Iceland Grey & Zabriskie Beige. 

The good looks and comes with the durable Ceraluminum coating which is now infused in the lid, keyboard frame and bottom case.
