The most powerful Zenbook ever: Zenbook Pro 16X OLED
The flagship model in the new line-up is Zenbook Pro 16X OLED, a no-compromise creator laptop with a
wealth of innovative design features all designed to aid on-the-go creativity, including the AAS Ultra
mechanism for maximum performance. The outstanding power and performance of Zenbook 16X OLED
is packed into a compact 2.4 kg unibody — CNC-machined for solidity from super-tough aerospace-grade
6000-series aluminum alloy — that's just 16.9 mm slim, so it’s easy to get creative on the move.
The Zenbook Pro 16X OLED is an NVIDIA Studio validated laptop, powered by up to a 12th Gen Intel®
Core™ i9 12900H processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 3060 Laptop GPU, Zenbook Pro 16X OLED
delivers extreme mobile performance. The high-performance components at its heart need to be cooled
effectively in order to reach their full potential. This starts with the new ASUS IceCool Pro cooling system,
which uses two quiet IceBlades fans, each with 97 3D-curved blades. These cool the vapor chamber and
the 5 mm heat pipe from the CPU and GPU, and the hot air is vented efficiently to the exterior via the new
AAS Ultra mechanism, with its 14.5 mm lift that also tilts the keyboard by an ergonomic 7°. The result is
that the CPU and GPU can run at up to a 140 W combined TDP in Performance mode without throttling,
and can run quieter than 40 dB in Standard mode. The high-capacity 96 Wh battery provides up to 10
hours of autonomy to ensure Zenbook Pro 16X OLED will get through even the most demanding work
days.
For stunning visuals, Zenbook Pro 16X OLED is equipped with a world-leading 16:10 16" 4K OLED HDR
60 Hz 550-nit Dolby Vision® touchscreen that’s PANTONE® Validated for industry-standard color
rendering, has a cinema-grade 100% DCI-P3 gamut, and is VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 500-certified
for the deepest blacks.
Other innovative and upgraded features include the all-new White-RGB ASUS Intelligent Lighting System
that enables smart interactivity such as visual alerts for power or performance status; the ASUS Dial
rotary controller for precise fingertip control of creative apps; and an enlarged touchpad with haptic
feedback for click-anywhere convenience.
Dual displays, evolved: Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED

world’s first 14.5-inch 2.8K 120 Hz OLED laptop. It features a bigger and brighter next-gen 12.7-inch
ScreenPad Plus secondary touchscreen, combined with the AAS Ultra auto-tilting design that improves
both cooling and ergonomics.

creators turn up their creative powers to the max. The flagship up to 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i9 12900H
processor and creator-grade NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU are cooled for extreme
performance — up to an 85-watt combined TDP — by ASUS IceCool Plus technology, aided by the
innovative AAS Ultra mechanism, which vents the chassis efficiently and also tilts the next-gen
ScreenPad Plus secondary touchscreen by 12°, positioning it at a comfortable angle for touch and
viewing to ensure a seamless and immersive experience.
For studio-class visuals, the world-leading 2.8K OLED HDR 16:10 main Dolby Vision touchscreen has a
