The Performance cores are designed to maximize single-thread performance and responsiveness for compute-intensive workloads like gaming and 3D design. The efficient core delivers multithreaded performance for tasks that can run in parallel (like image rendering), along with efficient offloading of background tasks for modern multitasking.

The Core i7P-series processor is paired with 16GB onboard memory and 1TB SSD, allowing it to work with optimum efficiency regardless of any task.

It’s actually compatible with external 4K displays, storage devices, or expand connections.

Prolonged Battery Life

The Zenbook 14 OLED series is equipped with a 75-watt-hour battery, giving users enough battery life to last them a day of work or play. This is an impressive performance that makes this Zenbook very competitive in its category and beyond.

Premium WiFi Connectivity

Asus has gone over and beyond to ensure that WIFi connectivity gives the best performance. The Zenbook 14 UX3402 OLED is equipped with ASUS WiFi Master Premium technology, which has a built-in dual‑band WiFi 6E wireless network for faster wireless transmission performance. With this improved technology from ASUS, the device is able to connect from a greater distance and provide seamless wireless experiences.

A unique feature on the device is SmartConnect, which automatically selects the router with the best signal in your environment and connects to it. It also offers the traditional service which allows it to memorize the mobile hotspots you connect to regularly.

USB-C Charging

The USB-C charge support on the ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED is usable with a wide range of standard USB-C chargers (5V-20V). It’s also ultrafast utilizing standard adapters. It’s usable with airline chargers, portable chargers or power banks. It’s incredibly convenient when there are no wall sockets available, such as on flights or in vehicles.

Intuitive Design

Device owners today are more alert on product design and are always searching for something that best represents their personality Asus has responded to this need with this Zenbook for both aesthetic and practical purposes.

The chassis of the new Zenbook 14 OLED series is made of aluminium alloy and the ASUS logo design on the lid is formed with simple lines. The new lid design features the ASUS monogram with refreshing new colours across the series.

A unique hinge design allows full 180° movement so you can lay the laptop flat, which is ideal for on-screen content with others sharing. This is unarguably one of the most endearing features of this laptop.

Advanced Keyboard Functionalities

ASUS has done an incredible job creating one of the most egocentric keyboards yet. The keyboard is built to allow users to type more comfortably, faster and with better results.

The keyboard of the Zenbook 14 OLED is set at 19.05 mm pitch (the distance between the middle of a key to the middle of its adjacent key) and offers many commonly used function keys, enabling users to type comfortably.  The keyboard is also backlit for convenient typing in dark environments. There are also several dedicated hotkeys, just to make navigation on the keyboard much easier and more friendly.

The power button on the keyboard has also been relocated to avoid accidental touches. It’s now placed on the right at the topmost row.

The ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED is available with NumberPad 2.0, an LED-illuminated numeric keypad integrated into the touchpad. A single-touch sensor at the top right of the touchpad turns NumberPad on and off, and a tap on the icon at the top left lets you choose one of two brightness levels.

Precisely, ASUS has done a superb job with several designs of this Zenbook ASUS UX3402, which is a sure way of endearing it to consumers.
