Asus has refreshed its lineup of ZenBook laptops and has launched a trio of premium laptops – ZenBook 13 (UX334), ZenBook 14 (UX434), and ZenBook 15 (UX534). All three of the new ZenBook models feature a slim design with a metallic build and include the ScreenPad 2.0, an updated version of Asus' touchscreen-embedded touchpad for more productivity. The company has also introduced the ZenBook Edition 30 (UX334FL) laptop that flaunts a genuine leather design and has been developed to commemorate the company's 30th year since its inception.
The ZenBook 13 (UX334), ZenBook 14 (UX434), and ZenBook 15 (UX534) borrow design elements from their predecessors that were launched in August last year. The key change here is the addition of the ScreenPad 2.0, an upgraded iteration of the display-embedded touchpad that made its debut on the Asus ZenBook Pro 15 laptop last year. Another upgrade comes in the graphics department, as the new ZenBook series laptops come equipped with an Nvidia GeForce GTX 16xx series or an Nvidia GeForce MX250 graphics cards. Asus is yet to reveal the pricing and market availability of the refreshed ZenBook series laptops.
Talking about the updated ScreenPad 2.0, it is a 5.65-inch full-HD+ (2160 x 1080 panel) IPS panel with 178-degree viewing angle and precision touchpad (PTP) technology behind it to support multi-finger gestures. The ScreenPad 2.0 is a shared trait between the ZenBook 13 (UX334), ZenBook 14 (UX 434), ZenBook 15 (UX534), and the ZenBook Edition 30 (UX334FL) laptops.
The Asus ZenBook 30 (UX334FL) Edition flaunts a premium hand-stitched Italian leather design that has a pearl white finish. The special edition laptop comes with a 13.3-inch full-HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) display with 178-degree viewing angle and 92 percent screen-to-body ratio.
