Can vouch for the quality of UGreen accessories of all stripes. My 100W GaN charger has been through the wars and keeps on going. I also have several external SSD enclosures and USB to Ethernet adapters that see daily use.
Have been great for us. We've been using them in the office for about 7 months for all the laptops you see on the channel (note for performance testing we do use the included charger). I also personally have been using the UGreen Nexode Pro 100w and 65w when traveling and its been great. Finally ... i'm writing to you using their Thunderbolt 4/USB4 dock and its amazing. So all good. I wouldn't take a sponsor that I didn't use btw :)@@saturnotaku
Funnily enough, I watched it and said to the team... we can do better. This one was filmed about a month ago but we put it on hold for a month to properly test latest bios updates. We must be accurate for you. New ones are better. There is a really funny one coming end of next week
As a 14x owner who picked it up for around $650 in the US and am mulling upgrading to the new one for better GPU and battery life (my only complaints), this was a great and timely video. Thank you!
$1,300 I think is a bit high for what you're getting. Right now for $200 more at Costco ($1,500), you can get their version of the Lenovo Slim Pro 9 that has the i9-13905H, RTX4050, 32GB ram, 1TB SSD, and a 16" miniLED screen. Well worth the extra $200 in upgrades IMHO.
But that's a big 16 inch laptop not a 14 inch one. Also, ASUS has the 14X OLED with the same specs as the lenovo but a 3050 6GB instead of 4050 and it goes for $1,499 retail price. If I were out in the market for a 14 inch laptop, I'd get the 14X OLED instead of the lenovo.
@@fidelisitor8953Not sure, so many new killer laptops coming soon in 2024 Id wait a bit. The i9 version of the Zenbook 14x w/3050 that you mention is great except for the battery life which is why I rather wait for Ultra 9s from Intel.
@@fidelisitor8953 according to Asus' website, the max GPU the 14X uses is the RTX 3050.. an older generation GPU than the RTX 4050. Maybe you were talking about the Asus Zenbook Pro 14 OLED that uses the RTX 4070 for $2100? Either way in my opinion... miniLED>OLED.
I got mine yesterday and spent a lot of time with it already. I'm a linux user and I almost see no bad things here: The CPU is incredible, the batterylife is really good, between 8 and 10h, the fans almost never go on and, except for the speakers, everything works right out of the box for me. This was clearly the better choice for me instead of the macbook air. My usecase is coding and general productive stuff.
Help me decide between: - Macbook Air M2 base model - Thinkpad E14 gen 6 - 16gb/1tb - Asus vivobook/zenbook 14 I usually use it for: - Programming (not professionally) - Browsing - Writing - Zoom Calls (hence the M2 for 1080p webcam) Most important is keyboard/trackpad experience.
the macbook wins in terms of your need also it has better build quilty however macbook is bad in terms of repair if your warnty is out plus it will thermoal throtle not much tho since your need hardly hit the limit the thinkpad is also great and both asus and lenovo have ssd upgrade unlike macbook if you want to pick the best one see videos on cam quilty which ever wins mostly mac does but consider this if you want to buy macbook see the storage and ram and understand that they are not upgradeable if your okay with that then go for mac if not then check for the quilty and microphone of asus and lenovo and put in mind the cpu-igpu gen for examble ryzen 7 7730u is 7000 cpu but it is zen 3 archtitc which is used for ryzen 5000 but ryzen 7 7735u is a zen 4 with much powerful igpu and cpu since your programing conisder the specs if cams are close enough one thing in terms of keyboard and trackpad mac wins easy since they use glass not plastic and their keyboard is soild my recommand is go for mac if your apps works on it and you understand and okay with the stoarge and ram config
I have seen "hardware canucks" and "Andrew Marc David" Intel Core ULTRA series 1 has MacBook 2023 level of BATTERY LIFE and has FASTER video editing than MacBook 2023. Many "X" users also tested many METEOR Lake laptops and said same thing that it has MacBook level of BATTERY LIFE.
Got this laptop a few weeks back here in the UK. Still has the Numpad feature on the trackpad. But the base model only comes with 16gb of RAM compared to the 32gb in the US model. My Cinebench 2024 results where a different to yours with the latest BIOS (301): Single Core: 97 Multi Core: 725 I still think there is room for improvement from ASUS with a few more BIOS updates which I hope we will see. Especially compared to HP in terms of battery efficiency. But overall I am happy with this laptop and it will be a great asset for me when I am traveling.
Glad to hear this as I’ve had my eye on this laptop for a month. I was going to purchase the ultra 7 16gb version but then saw ASUS updated the website and in mid Feb are releasing the ultra 5 and ultra 9 models with the ram upgrade to 32gb so holding off till then! (UK) Maybe you can return the one you have for a faster model?
@@joshhart4089 I have the exact same laptop (Ultra 7) as this review apart from 16gb of ram. So in theory benchmarks should be similar. My Single core is slightly lower than Josh but my Multi Core is quicker. Little bummed they are now offering the 32gb model. But 16gb should be enough for what I do web browsing etc. Its basically a secondary machine.
Got the 155H/32GB/1TB model for my wifey, as an upgrade to her older Lenovo Yoga Slim 1135g7/16GB/512GB, and she is liking the feel, speed and especially the OLED screen. This is really a good one for the price. For myself I upgraded by 5850U based EliteBook to EliteBook 835 G10 7840U/32GB/2TB Samsung 990 Pro as my daily driver. If you do some content creation (photo, video) like my wife, the ZenBook OLED is the way to go.
I need a touchscreen laptop for uni. I was looking at 2 rlly good choices, the Zenbook 14 (which is on sale for 1919 here in Australia) and Yoga Pro 7i (on sale for 1830). But I could get a business laptop asw, Like that Elitebook u mentioned, or a Thinkpad X1 Yoga G7, they have tradeoffs right, more expensive, but with matte displays and better keyboards.
@@rizdog5735 Go for Zenbook 14, for uni, much better battery life, bright screen, good price and keyboard is ok, not as good as EliteBook and definitely not ThinkPad.
ZenBook 14 somehow still remains the most underrated laptop (not on this channel) in the product segment. And while the price is higher, I'm certain they'll sell for around $500 at some point this year at Best Buy. It never makes sense, but on Best Buy's website they go on sale twice a year for anywhere from 30% to 70% off. I had a chance to get the 12th gen model for $340, and I found the AMD model with MX450 for $212. Year after year they somehow pull this off whenever they phase out a model. Even the non-open box versions, well under 500.
Yeah past intel processors have terrible efficiency & battery life. The impressive thing about the 14x though was the silent mode which really tamped down on the fan noise to being nonexistent for majority of the time. I currently have the yoga 9i and the fans are incessantly on for even light tasks such as web browsing. The two main reasons I returned the 14x was the bottom firing speakers which sounded muffled when not on a hard surface and preferring a 2in1. The 14x laptop is still a best buy this year.
Depends what you want. 155h + 2X better graphics + live longer from battery + new processor - pricy 13700h + more powerful + 1,5X cheaper - pretty bad graphic (not for games) - cannot work for 5-7 hours away from plug unless you are a linux user and know how to customise you power drawing. Depends what you want. In country where I live the price difference only 20%, between 155h/32/1 and 13700/16/1 . So, im getting 155h... In states you can get 13700 for 700$ from BB deal or even cheaper.
What a shame that Lenovo dropped their 14" Slim Pro 9i for this year, they could have won the category easily. There's a lot of shames about Lenovo this year, but it's good to see Asus is at least taking feedback from last year's model and improving in some areas. Hoping to see some better mini-LED options in the market for 2024, as I'll be finally deciding on a new model by the summer.
I think this replaces the 14x oled from last year. 2023 14x oled has the same price, and mostly same specs. differences are it has i9 13th gen and rtx3050. for the same price, which one is the better buy right now in Jan 2024?
I just watched this and the new HP Spectre x360 review and I still can't decide on which one to get. For decent gaming and professional programming which one would be a better buy?
You should NOT buy it for decent gaming. Professional programming it will be good at. I would wait for reviews on the updated G14, Yoga Pro 9i, HP Omen Transcend 14 etc. re better gaming
I have last year's 14x, and it's terrific, especially for $699. Only having 16 GB hurts it though. I just had my company pick up the 2024 version in this video, considering I don't have to pay for it myself lol. The battery life, RAM, and ARC graphics seem like pretty huge upgrades in my view.
I can only find the zenbook 14X at 750USD (plus $100 taxes) with 8GB of ram, 1000USD (plus $150 taxes) with 16gb of ram. And the base macbook air m1 at 750USD (amazon refurbished, total price). Which of these is the better deal?
I got the 2023 14x a week ago, but I didn’t get it on sale. Your videos insinuate that while its a decent computer, its really only worth it if you buy it on sale. Do you think I should return it & grab something else? I’m a business student & I need a new laptop for school & other work.
Hp pavilion Plus 14 (68 Wh) with #AMD 7840U has 10 to 11 hours of BATTERY. Hp spectre x360 14 (68 Wh) with #Intel Core ULTRA 7 155H has 14 to 15 hours of BATTERY. 😱 Intel laptops BATTERY life is as good as MacBook M2/M3 even though Intel is using Tiles/Chiplet. Impressive🤯 💪

Hi Josh, thank you for a great video. If you had to pick between last year's 14x at $700 (just bought it last week on sale) vs this new one at $1k (current price at best buy near me) Seems a lot of people in the comments have the same question. It seems the new 14 is a better due to graphics and battery but is it $300 better? Foe context I'm a developer by trade and dabble in light video editing
hey, is there a video for choosing a notebook for hobby programmers? I use M1 Macbook at work, but would like to pick something NOT FROM APPLE, which would be light, powerful and as cool to the touch as possible (also with low fan noise). thanks for suggestions
There was video from him comparing all the laptops he reviewed last year. His website justjosh on description also has an excel sheet comparing all the laptops
Josh, I hope you see this and respond. I’m not in the US and in my country they still have stock of the Zenbook 14 Flip 2022 with Ryzen 9. Is that still good to purchase over this Zenbook 14 OLED 2024?
Could you take a few seconds in your videos to mention linux hardware compatibility? thanks. Sometimes I want to buy a laptop but I don't know if all the hardware is linux compatible.
I have one but the battery life is not that good compared to my Macbook Air. Intel needs to do much better with battery life even for basic things like watching videos

I just picked up a 14x for $700 but I am tempted to return it and get this new 14 with the core ultra. I am just not sure if it is worth the extra $600 for 16gb more ram, the Npu and better gpu performance. Any thoughts anyone
I hate how everytime I think I've found the perfect laptop this channels proves me wrong 😂 love your content and the info you provide 🙌 Can I get a laptop recommendation for content creation (video editing - Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, graphics design and UI design). I love the specs of Macbook Pro's but I am not a fan of the IOS system, so I am looking for an alternative Windows laptop at around the $2k budget range. PS: thoughts on the new Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i (2024)? Hope to see a review on it here soon 😁
I ve got this one month ago. Overal very good for my usege scenario. But battery unfortunately miserable. With latest drivers as for August 2024 you can have in best case 3 hours max (yes! 3 hours only) for lightest internet browsing and youtube
Buy core ULTRA I have seen "hardware canucks" and "Andrew Marc David" Intel Core ULTRA series 1 has MacBook 2023 level of BATTERY LIFE and has FASTER video editing than MacBook 2023.
Last year year I ordered both the 14x oled (USD 699 at Bestbuy) and the 14 (USD 629 AT Walmart at the time). I returned the 14 due to its excessive fan noise and kept the 14x oled as it did not have that issue and was zippy. Happy I did so, also as the new Intel processors dont seem all that. Would have loved the weight of the 14 though for day to day travel purposes.
Hi Josh, I have a question regarding the display. Since it's an OLED touchscreen, is there a visible mesh grid and how bad does it look? Saw a couple of people complaining on Reddit but it was for the 2023 version. Thanks!
If it is a touch display, chances are great it has this horible "screen door effect", also known as moire effect! And looking at this video I paused a few time and I could definitly see this moire effect :'(
@@JustJoshTech Just look closer to the display and open a white/gray background... Only Samsung AmoLed is spared of this dreadfull screen door effect 😢
You are right! - 3 of us here have now tried this on the new Asus Zenbook 14 (2024) as well as the new HP Spectre 14 (2024). All of us noticed the grain/mesh from about 12inches or less from the screen. I normally sit 18inches so its hard to see. The MacBook 14 with it's MiniLed display does not exhibit this. This will be mentioned in future videos.
In Canada Best Buy has an open box version of the ultra 7 Zenbook (with touch screen) that’s $1,300 vs the 2024 Ryzen 7 version (no touch screen) for $1,200 on sale. Which one would you recommend given they are so close in pricing? Mainly care about battery life and performance on day to day tasks
I'd be interested to know which BIOS version you were using for this review (301 is the latest), if you know. Some of the reviews I've been seeing for this laptop look like it's a fair bit worse in both battery and CPU performance than expected for having near-identical components to the Spectre, which is especially surprising to me given the slightly larger battery in the Zenbook. I read that the first few BIOS versions were lacking some important updates so I'm wondering if that could be the reason for the poor results seen in a lot of reviews. It's difficult to track down whether different reviewers updated the BIOS or not before reviewing so any information you can share on this would be super helpful!
Check our recent x1c video. It has the absolute latest version. We re tested for that video

I have the 2023 version. Battery is trash tbh, but I have an i7-13700H... So no surprises there, seems like that for a powerful CPU with good battery you need to go ARM, although I treat my laptops as my car so maybe that is important as well lol "I paid for the whole speedometer I'm gonna use the whole speedometer" I always keep my ZenBook in performance + 120Hz
@epic4418 well, it is the issue of the powerhouse inside the small case. I believe you can tweak it by changing voltage and optimizing background processes. I usually use laptops on the desk so it shouldn't be issue to me. What about screen? Is it too much reflective?
Does it still make sense to get last year's version? And in that case, is it better to opt for the model with the Intel i5-1340P or the Ryzen 5 7530U processor? I don't need thunderbolt capability, just a snappy everyday performance, good battery life and a machine that will last me for at least 5 years or so.
I think your battery review may be flawed. I have seen other reviewers say the battery on this device blows all other windows devices out the water. Dave2d's video on this laptop found that it outperforms the m2 chip at most loads.

Please tell us for 2024, which is the best laptop for computer science university students. 1. Microsoft Surface Pro 2. HP Spectre x360 14” 2 in 1 3. Lenovo X1 Carbon 14” Gen 12 4. Dell XPS 13”
I want to buy a new laptop and am between zenbook 14 and dell xps 13 or 15. Which would you recommend? I need at least a core i7 cpu, 16 gb ram, 1T ssd and a powerful gpu preferably geforce series and being portable is important as well!
Do not buy dell xps 13/15 totally rubbish my family bought this for work and we all had so many problems with these laptops , mine only lasted 3 years and now I am forced yet again to buy a new laptop, and I spent over £2000 for the dell!
The Zenbook 14x eith 13700H CPU with EVO platform can be bought for $800 now. Its a hige value at that price. I just bought one for myself with 1tb drive.
Just got this laptop Asus 14 oled screen I really don’t like the oled screen it’s horrible to sit and work with. Could you recommend any other laptop model 14 inch without oled I can’t stand oled on laptops.. is there any Screens?
Maybe you can answer me, my question is: When I have to use a few Programms which need windows, but mostly can use Programms that run on Windows and MacOS. Which is the best 14” laptop to buy? My options are the MacBook Pro 14 M2 Max (3000€), or the Zenbook 14 x OLED 2023 (1999€), maybe now the 14 oled (1700€). I wanted 32 gb ram and 1 tb ssd. I mean I can use parallels on the Mac for the windows Programms. I hope you can help me. And thanks for the good videos.
@@kyub1x333 i am looking now at the same thing, but I am pretty sure it will be neither Asus 14 OLED (on Reddit some people complaining of overheating and battery lasting only a couple of hours of browsing/music listening), nor MacBook Pro (Apple chips are not working properly with virtualization, and I need it).

You need windows. Buy the ultra 7 Asus. Invest the rest in a good monitor, keyboard and mouse. You'll thank me later. Source: a colleague.
Are the bezels plastic? Cant find the info anywhere. I went to the store to check and they only had the ultra 5 125h model that had plastic bezels. But from the videos, this one doesnt look plastic at all
But the most disppointing fact is that it does not have the backlit Numberpad on the touchpad in the latest model. Why AUSUS has thoughtlessly removed this great feature?
Watching from a Zenbook 14 OLED with Intel Core Ultra 9, i got 37,000 geekbench 6 gpu test plugged in and 27,000 on battery along with 1600 single core and 10,000 multi core, my biggest doubt was the build quality of the main chassis with the keyboard and trackpad, its nothing like the macbook which was my prevoius laptop but it is still very good and would deffinetly buy again! note my version from john lewis didnt come with a stylus or carry case
I like your review but something’s not making sense… You say with same 155H HP SpecterX 360 has higher cinebench score than this zenbook due to higher power consumption. But then its battery life (with a smaller battery size) is better than this zenbook. very strange… not adding up.

I wish this laptop was available with latest Zen processors. My girl has the 14 2023 with 7530U and it's amazing (but quite pricey at 670€), but it's pretty sad that it only has older Ryzens while Intel puts in there their latest stuff
Based on your experience and your in-depth review, your subscriber count is meager. I am very delighted with your reviews and also satisfied with your suggestion. Keep it up💙
I am confused between Asus Zenbook 14 and Spectre x360 (both Ultra 7 with 32 GB). In India, Spectre x360 is INR 45,000/- (approx. 550 USD / 425 GBP) costlier. Is the Spectre worth the extra money ?
yeah i dont know whats going on with the core ultra performance inconsistencies. I briefly had a zenbook 14 with the 7 155h and both cinebench r23 and r24 both said it was slower than an m1 macbook air lol. That was after multiple hours of troubleshooting mind you.
Hello Josh, I have never seen you review workstation laptops such as 'HP ZBook Fury 16 G10' and 'Lenovo ThinkPad P1 G6'. You include expensive Macbook M3s in the tables, but you do not include workstation laptops among the best laptops. I would like to see this type of laptops on your channel in the future. Also I would like to see your review of 'Asus ExpertBook B9 OLED', every laptop reviewers say very good things about this laptop.
Does Asus plan to release this laptop with Ryzen processor which gave better battery life like last year? That would be nice to have same battery life as last year with 32GB ram.
Just a generic question regarding your testing process on all your test laptops samples. Is their ANY non-biased data reporting source that could indicate the reliability of the laptop being tested or the warranty repair capability of the manufacturer or their reputation for their warranty repair work? Personally, I doubt that. Most things I have read over the years regarding that topic are reports based upon essentially non-statistical owner testimonials. Pity. In some ways that bit of information would be more useful to a perspective owner of a particular laptop than say how that laptop did on a particular benchmark test. Otherwise, very nice review (as always) of the Asus Zenbook 14.
Actually I bought Asus Zenbook 13 (2020) even for my Wife for University and general use. The small formfactor the small weight and overatll good performance is made it really great choice even today. Only complain is the fan noise :S

$1,300 I think is a bit high for what you're getting. Right now for $200 more at Costco ($1,500), you can get their version of the Lenovo Slim Pro 9 that has the i9-13905H, RTX4050, 32GB ram, 1TB SSD, and a 16" miniLED screen. Well worth the extra $200 in upgrades IMHO.
But that's a big 16 inch laptop not a 14 inch one. Also, ASUS has the 14X OLED with the same specs as the lenovo but a 3050 6GB instead of 4050 and it goes for $1,499 retail price. If I were out in the market for a 14 inch laptop, I'd get the 14X OLED instead of the lenovo.

the thinkpad is also great and both asus and lenovo have ssd upgrade unlike macbook
if you want to pick the best one see videos on cam quilty which ever wins mostly mac does but consider this
if you want to buy macbook see the storage and ram and understand that they are not upgradeable if your okay with that then go for mac if not then check for the quilty and microphone of asus and lenovo and put in mind the cpu-igpu gen
for examble ryzen 7 7730u is 7000 cpu but it is zen 3 archtitc which is used for ryzen 5000 but ryzen 7 7735u is a zen 4 with much powerful igpu and cpu
since your programing conisder the specs if cams are close enough
one thing in terms of keyboard and trackpad mac wins easy since they use glass not plastic and their keyboard is soild
my recommand is go for mac if your apps works on it and you understand and okay with the stoarge and ram config
Thanks for the comparison. For less demanding users last years model looks like a very good option.

Intel Core ULTRA series 1 has MacBook 2023 level of BATTERY LIFE and has FASTER video editing than MacBook 2023.
Many "X" users also tested many METEOR Lake laptops and said same thing that it has MacBook level of BATTERY LIFE.
Got this laptop a few weeks back here in the UK. Still has the Numpad feature on the trackpad. But the base model only comes with 16gb of RAM compared to the 32gb in the US model.
My Cinebench 2024 results where a different to yours with the latest BIOS (301):
Single Core: 97
Multi Core: 725
I still think there is room for improvement from ASUS with a few more BIOS updates which I hope we will see. Especially compared to HP in terms of battery efficiency.
But overall I am happy with this laptop and it will be a great asset for me when I am traveling.
Glad to hear this as I’ve had my eye on this laptop for a month. I was going to purchase the ultra 7 16gb version but then saw ASUS updated the website and in mid Feb are releasing the ultra 5 and ultra 9 models with the ram upgrade to 32gb so holding off till then! (UK) Maybe you can return the one you have for a faster model?
Best laptop and MacBook 2023 level of BATTERY LIFE.
@@joshhart4089 I have the exact same laptop (Ultra 7) as this review apart from 16gb of ram. So in theory benchmarks should be similar. My Single core is slightly lower than Josh but my Multi Core is quicker.
Little bummed they are now offering the 32gb model. But 16gb should be enough for what I do web browsing etc. Its basically a secondary machine.
US are complaining about the price of $1299 which they will get a 1TB/32GB while in EU market it’s €1399 for 512GB/16GB🤦🏻♂️
@LouieTingkingco yes but in US its plus tax, where as in Europe its inclusive of tax
Got the 155H/32GB/1TB model for my wifey, as an upgrade to her older Lenovo Yoga Slim 1135g7/16GB/512GB, and she is liking the feel, speed and especially the OLED screen. This is really a good one for the price. For myself I upgraded by 5850U based EliteBook to EliteBook 835 G10 7840U/32GB/2TB Samsung 990 Pro as my daily driver. If you do some content creation (photo, video) like my wife, the ZenBook OLED is the way to go.
Thanks for this. Could i ask where you purchased both laptops?
@@sunilkc2008 In Moscow, ZenBook costed about 1.2K and the EliteBook with SSD about 1.6K.
what about the battery life of this new machine ?
I need a touchscreen laptop for uni. I was looking at 2 rlly good choices, the Zenbook 14 (which is on sale for 1919 here in Australia) and Yoga Pro 7i (on sale for 1830). But I could get a business laptop asw, Like that Elitebook u mentioned, or a Thinkpad X1 Yoga G7, they have tradeoffs right, more expensive, but with matte displays and better keyboards.
@@rizdog5735 Go for Zenbook 14, for uni, much better battery life, bright screen, good price and keyboard is ok, not as good as EliteBook and definitely not ThinkPad.
9:45 - Intel: "Why would we shrink our manufacturing technique, when we can simply increase the Max T-Junction Temp?!?"
ZenBook 14 somehow still remains the most underrated laptop (not on this channel) in the product segment. And while the price is higher, I'm certain they'll sell for around $500 at some point this year at Best Buy.
It never makes sense, but on Best Buy's website they go on sale twice a year for anywhere from 30% to 70% off. I had a chance to get the 12th gen model for $340, and I found the AMD model with MX450 for $212. Year after year they somehow pull this off whenever they phase out a model. Even the non-open box versions, well under 500.
Hi. How often do you check for this sales? Also, you bought that one i. 340 refurbished or new?
I'll wait for you to eat your words. Jk. I don't agree that this would be $500 but feel free to wait.
Hey Josh! One question: between this laptop and 14X 2023 what do you choose? Greetings
I have the Zenbook 14X. It's an amazing laptop but the battery is very disappointing.
What do you mean? Just limit the power consumption as much as you want the battery to last
So better to get a MacBook? @@recordedanemone6399
Yeah past intel processors have terrible efficiency & battery life. The impressive thing about the 14x though was the silent mode which really tamped down on the fan noise to being nonexistent for majority of the time. I currently have the yoga 9i and the fans are incessantly on for even light tasks such as web browsing. The two main reasons I returned the 14x was the bottom firing speakers which sounded muffled when not on a hard surface and preferring a 2in1. The 14x laptop is still a best buy this year.
I am considering the 14X, would you still recommend it?
I agree. Specs-wise it is good no doubt about it but battery omg Im always glued near to an outlet.
hey Just josh, what laptop would you recommend for an engineering and computer science student with a budget of $1800 AUD (Australian Dollar)
Can anyone suggest me which will better? Asus zenbook 14
(Intel core ultra 7 155H) or
14X (core i7 13700H) please help me.
Depends what you want.
155h
+ 2X better graphics
+ live longer from battery
+ new processor
- pricy
13700h
+ more powerful
+ 1,5X cheaper
- pretty bad graphic (not for games)
- cannot work for 5-7 hours away from plug unless you are a linux user and know how to customise you power drawing.
Depends what you want. In country where I live the price difference only 20%, between 155h/32/1 and 13700/16/1 . So, im getting 155h... In states you can get 13700 for 700$ from BB deal or even cheaper.
Such a good quality videos, honestly i am impressed every time! Hope you gain more subs and views
Thanks. Me too
What a shame that Lenovo dropped their 14" Slim Pro 9i for this year, they could have won the category easily. There's a lot of shames about Lenovo this year, but it's good to see Asus is at least taking feedback from last year's model and improving in some areas. Hoping to see some better mini-LED options in the market for 2024, as I'll be finally deciding on a new model by the summer.
If only had matte display and was compatible with Linux
There are no bad products, just bad pricing. Yeah this just wont cut it. At the original price it was a godsend for people who likes a thin and light.
Hey Josh, will you be doing a review video for the Acer Swift Go 14" 2024?
What laptop you recommend for video editing? As been looking at Dell XPS and Asus zenbook?
I'm comparing this too. Have you made any purchase?
The 1300$ price is for double Ram and Storage (32GB/1TB) compared to last years model with half (16GB/512GB). Of course it’s that much cheaper
So what do you prefer ... this or the HP Spectre x360? Tough choice!
I think this replaces the 14x oled from last year.
2023 14x oled has the same price, and mostly same specs. differences are it has i9 13th gen and rtx3050. for the same price, which one is the better buy right now in Jan 2024?
I’d like to know as well
I just watched this and the new HP Spectre x360 review and I still can't decide on which one to get. For decent gaming and professional programming which one would be a better buy?
You should NOT buy it for decent gaming. Professional programming it will be good at. I would wait for reviews on the updated G14, Yoga Pro 9i, HP Omen Transcend 14 etc. re better gaming
I have last year's 14x, and it's terrific, especially for $699. Only having 16 GB hurts it though. I just had my company pick up the 2024 version in this video, considering I don't have to pay for it myself lol. The battery life, RAM, and ARC graphics seem like pretty huge upgrades in my view.
I can only find the zenbook 14X at 750USD (plus $100 taxes) with 8GB of ram, 1000USD (plus $150 taxes) with 16gb of ram. And the base macbook air m1 at 750USD (amazon refurbished, total price).
Which of these is the better deal?
I got the 2023 14x a week ago, but I didn’t get it on sale.
Your videos insinuate that while its a decent computer, its really only worth it if you buy it on sale.
Do you think I should return it & grab something else?
I’m a business student & I need a new laptop for school & other work.
Sales are nice but if its working for you thats good too
I'm waiting on the 2024 Zenbook Duo, what a neat concept!
If I were you, I'd added "in my opinion" at the end. Because IMHO, this Duo is a gimmick. Have a nice day!

Hi Josh, thank you for a great video. If you had to pick between last year's 14x at $700 (just bought it last week on sale) vs this new one at $1k (current price at best buy near me) Seems a lot of people in the comments have the same question. It seems the new 14 is a better due to graphics and battery but is it $300 better? Foe context I'm a developer by trade and dabble in light video editing
hey, is there a video for choosing a notebook for hobby programmers?
I use M1 Macbook at work, but would like to pick something NOT FROM APPLE, which would be light, powerful and as cool to the touch as possible (also with low fan noise).
thanks for suggestions
Looking for the same
There was video from him comparing all the laptops he reviewed last year. His website justjosh on description also has an excel sheet comparing all the laptops
i'm using a M2 macbook air 15. but looking for a windows laptop that's thin light, silent, good battery life.
I have last year's ZenBook. Screen and fan noise is wonderful, however for battery life go with the newest version with Intel Ultra cores
Josh, I hope you see this and respond. I’m not in the US and in my country they still have stock of the Zenbook 14 Flip 2022 with Ryzen 9. Is that still good to purchase over this Zenbook 14 OLED 2024?
Could you take a few seconds in your videos to mention linux hardware compatibility? thanks. Sometimes I want to buy a laptop but I don't know if all the hardware is linux compatible.

I just picked up a 14x for $700 but I am tempted to return it and get this new 14 with the core ultra. I am just not sure if it is worth the extra $600 for 16gb more ram, the Npu and better gpu performance. Any thoughts anyone
Honestly I'm in the same boat. I would love a comparison.
I hate how everytime I think I've found the perfect laptop this channels proves me wrong 😂 love your content and the info you provide 🙌
Can I get a laptop recommendation for content creation (video editing - Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, graphics design and UI design). I love the specs of Macbook Pro's but I am not a fan of the IOS system, so I am looking for an alternative Windows laptop at around the $2k budget range.
PS: thoughts on the new Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i (2024)? Hope to see a review on it here soon 😁
I laughed out loud at this comment. Yeah I'd say 202r G16 or Yoga Pro 9i will be likely contenders for you
I ve got this one month ago. Overal very good for my usege scenario. But battery unfortunately miserable. With latest drivers as for August 2024 you can have in best case 3 hours max (yes! 3 hours only) for lightest internet browsing and youtube

Awesome review as usual.
But Josh and Team, if I had to choose between last year’s 14X and this new 14, which one then?
Hopefully they answer, I had the same question
I had settled on getting the new 14 but, after this video... I don't know.
I would also like some advice.
Last year year I ordered both the 14x oled (USD 699 at Bestbuy) and the 14 (USD 629 AT Walmart at the time). I returned the 14 due to its excessive fan noise and kept the 14x oled as it did not have that issue and was zippy. Happy I did so, also as the new Intel processors dont seem all that. Would have loved the weight of the 14 though for day to day travel purposes.
For the improved battery life alone I'd pick the new 14 over last years 14X.
Hi Josh, I have a question regarding the display. Since it's an OLED touchscreen, is there a visible mesh grid and how bad does it look? Saw a couple of people complaining on Reddit but it was for the 2023 version. Thanks!
Hmm, I didn't notice it
But i will look out for it
If it is a touch display, chances are great it has this horible "screen door effect", also known as moire effect! And looking at this video I paused a few time and I could definitly see this moire effect :'(
@@JustJoshTech Just look closer to the display and open a white/gray background... Only Samsung AmoLed is spared of this dreadfull screen door effect 😢
You are right! - 3 of us here have now tried this on the new Asus Zenbook 14 (2024) as well as the new HP Spectre 14 (2024). All of us noticed the grain/mesh from about 12inches or less from the screen. I normally sit 18inches so its hard to see. The MacBook 14 with it's MiniLed display does not exhibit this. This will be mentioned in future videos.
Josh can you make Lenovo Yoga pro 7i (2024) vs Asus zenbook 14 (2024) please 🙏🏼
In Canada Best Buy has an open box version of the ultra 7 Zenbook (with touch screen) that’s $1,300 vs the 2024 Ryzen 7 version (no touch screen) for $1,200 on sale. Which one would you recommend given they are so close in pricing? Mainly care about battery life and performance on day to day tasks

I'd be interested to know which BIOS version you were using for this review (301 is the latest), if you know. Some of the reviews I've been seeing for this laptop look like it's a fair bit worse in both battery and CPU performance than expected for having near-identical components to the Spectre, which is especially surprising to me given the slightly larger battery in the Zenbook. I read that the first few BIOS versions were lacking some important updates so I'm wondering if that could be the reason for the poor results seen in a lot of reviews. It's difficult to track down whether different reviewers updated the BIOS or not before reviewing so any information you can share on this would be super helpful!
Check our recent x1c video. It has the absolute latest version. We re tested for that video
I have the 2023 version. Battery is trash tbh, but I have an i7-13700H... So no surprises there, seems like that for a powerful CPU with good battery you need to go ARM, although I treat my laptops as my car so maybe that is important as well lol "I paid for the whole speedometer I'm gonna use the whole speedometer" I always keep my ZenBook in performance + 120Hz
I have a Zenbook 14(2021) Q408UG with Nvidia mx450 for 589 USD. Runs Forz Horizon 4 in medium graphics around 40-50 fps
Thank you for sharing your experience! It helps to figure out how good the model is after years.
@@vdBlogMaster But my zenbook is too hot. I get used to it. Cpu temps can go up to above 95 celcius
@epic4418 well, it is the issue of the powerhouse inside the small case. I believe you can tweak it by changing voltage and optimizing background processes. I usually use laptops on the desk so it shouldn't be issue to me. What about screen? Is it too much reflective?
My Zenbook14 8840HS runs any game I put on it as it replaced my ROG Ally in a more usable format for me and better battery life.
@flat_stickproductions209 That's good to know. Thank you for sharing your valuable insight!
Most honest review of this laptop on youtube! All other reviews felt heavily sponsored.
I appreciate that. We really are doing our best to be unbiased
Does it still make sense to get last year's version? And in that case, is it better to opt for the model with the Intel i5-1340P or the Ryzen 5 7530U processor? I don't need thunderbolt capability, just a snappy everyday performance, good battery life and a machine that will last me for at least 5 years or so.
I'd definitely get last years, and with the Ryzen 5 u series you mentioned
Thank you so much, a really helpful video review and answer@@JustJoshTech
Is the chassis the same (or similar in build quality) as the zenbook x, pro or s variants or is it mostly just a difference of internals?
I think your battery review may be flawed. I have seen other reviewers say the battery on this device blows all other windows devices out the water. Dave2d's video on this laptop found that it outperforms the m2 chip at most loads.

Just a generic question regarding your testing process on all your test laptops samples. Is their ANY non-biased data reporting source that could indicate the reliability of the laptop being tested or the warranty repair capability of the manufacturer or their reputation for their warranty repair work? Personally, I doubt that. Most things I have read over the years regarding that topic are reports based upon essentially non-statistical owner testimonials. Pity. In some ways that bit of information would be more useful to a perspective owner of a particular laptop than say how that laptop did on a particular benchmark test. Otherwise, very nice review (as always) of the Asus Zenbook 14.
why is no one talking about the vivobook?
Actually I bought Asus Zenbook 13 (2020) even for my Wife for University and general use. The small formfactor the small weight and overatll good performance is made it really great choice even today.
Only complain is the fan noise :S
Zenbook 14 2024 vs 2023 14x. Who wins
