ASUS has announced its new Zenbook S 13, the world’s thinnest 13.3″ OLED laptop that is also the most environmentally friendly Zenbook yet.

With a super-slim 1cm profile, lightweight 1kg chassis and 2 color options (the new Basalt Gray or Ponder Blue), ZenBook S 13 OLED offers uncompromising performance, connectivity and battery life. It is also designed to be environmentally friendly and carbon neutral, using recycled metals and plastics in its construction, FSCTM Mix certified packaging, elegant aluminum with eco-friendly plasma ceramic coating for the Basalt Gray model, and halogen-free electronics.

It includes a 13th generation Intel Core processor with up to 32 GB LPDDR5 RAM and up to 1 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 SSD. It also has a full set of I/O ports for direct connections and a 63 Wh battery.

The screen is an ASUS Lumina OLED 2.8K (2880 x 1800) 16:10 display with Dolby Vision technology, Pantone validated color accuracy and VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification, promising incredible detail and deeper black levels.

Design and appearance

Zenbook S 13 OLED achieves a super slim profile of 1 cm and a super light weight of 1 kg through several advanced techniques and materials in its design and construction. This includes a custom display with an FHD IR camera integrated into the CNC-machined lid and an ultra-thin OLED panel that makes the lid 30% thinner.

The internal layout is optimized with precision CNC machining to make more space inside, circuit boards with fewer layers and higher wiring density, and a precisely designed motherboard to house an additional ultra-thin fan for better cooling.

sustainable manufacturing

Using recycled materials and eco-friendly packaging, the laptop includes recycled magnesium aluminum alloy in the sleeve and recycled plastic in the keys and speakers, and has 100% recyclable packaging.

It also exceeds the ENERGY STAR energy efficiency standard by 43%. In addition, ASUS has used a special manufacturing process to create an exclusive plasma-ceramic aluminum material that resists wear, protects against corrosion, and has a unique appearance similar to natural stone. The Zenbook has also passed rigorous durability tests, making it the world’s most durable laptop.

In addition to the physical benefits, the appearance of this material is similar to natural stone, which resonates with the spirit of the Zenbook series. Incredibly, this makes each cap individually unique. No two are the same. Extended laptop life also reduces waste in the long run, so ZenBook 13 S OLED has been rigorously tested against the latest US MIL-STD-810H military durability standard, with up to 12 test methods and 26 individual tests. tested laptop in the world for durability.(I)
