Toronto, September 24, 2024

ASUS has officially launched its latest marvel, the Zenbook S 14 (UX5406), available for Canadian consumers both online and in-store at Best Buy and the ASUS Store, with more retailer options starting in December. This state-of-the-art laptop has been meticulously engineered to symbolize the marriage of art and technology, showcasing an ultrathin profile that measures just 1.1 cm in thickness — setting a new standard for portability in the 14-inch category of laptops.

Redefining Aesthetics and Functionality

The Zenbook S 14 features groundbreaking ASUS Ceraluminum™ - a high-tech ceramic hybrid that not only enhances its aesthetics with nature-inspired colors but also ensures unmatched durability. Utilizing advanced CNC milling technology, ASUS has created a unique geometric grille design above the keyboard, improving appearance and airflow, while also housing highly efficient components for superior cooling.

With the integration of an advanced vapor-chamber cooling system, the Zenbook S 14 not only looks sleek but also keeps performance at an optimal level, allowing users to multitask seamlessly without taking a hit on cooling or speed. Available in shades of Zumaia Gray and Scandinavian White, it is a perfect fit for both work environments and casual settings.

Power and Performance Redefined

Empowered by the latest AI-enhanced Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 processor (Series 2), the Zenbook S 14 does more than just look good. With advanced features such as the dedicated Windows Copilot key on the ASUS ErgoSense keyboard, users can access AI assistance easily. The laptop also supports up to 32GB of LPDDR5X RAM and a 1TB PCIe® 4.0 SSD, ensuring rapid performance for demanding applications and an outstanding overall user experience.

The device features a larger 16:10 seamless touchpad that enhances productivity, with smart gesture controls allowing easy adjustments of volume, brightness, and more.

Stunning Display and Audio Experience

Visuals on the Zenbook S 14 come through with astonishing clarity, courtesy of its 14-inch 3K 120Hz ASUS Lumina OLED display, which is Pantone® Validated and DisplayHDR™ True Black 500 certified. This means vibrant colors and deep blacks for a truly immersive viewing experience. Coupled with a premium four-speaker system certified by Harman Kardon, users can enjoy multi-dimensional Dolby Atmos® audio – an impressive feat for such a compact device.

A Focus on Quietness and Security

In terms of operation, the Zenbook prioritizes a distraction-free environment with ambient cooling noise levels below 25dB. This means you can work or watch movies in peace. Added features include Windows Hello facial recognition for quick and secure login, and an advanced adaptive lock system that automatically secures the laptop when the user is not present.

Availability and Pricing

The ASUS Zenbook S 14 is now on sale starting at CA$1,799 for models equipped with the Intel Core Ultra 5 processor and CA$2,199 for those with the Ultra 7 processor. A new configuration featuring the Ultra 7 with 16GB of RAM will be available later this December.

With its blend of elegance, high-end performance, and innovative features, ASUS is setting the stage for future laptop use in both professional and personal settings. Don't miss your chance to experience the future of portable computing with the Zenbook S 14!
