The best ASUS laptops of 2023

This laptop is ideal for managing complex and compute-intensive creative work and applications because it's packed with a surprising amount of high-quality components. Despite this, it doesn't let off the gas and keeps its cool.

The ASUS ProArt Studiobook even has OLED touchscreen functionality, and it's quite stunning with its rich design and bright, colour-accurate OLED display that reaches 100% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut. Even better for creatives, the trackpad has a built-in dial that can be programmed on an application-by-application basis.

The Asus Zenbook 14X OLED is undoubtedly a product to consider if you need a laptop that can keep up with you. It's essentially a full-fledged portable computer, and based on our evaluation, we'd even bet that it can compete with the MacBook Pro in terms of performance, despite being cheaper. Unfortunately, battery life is sacrificed as it only lasts for eight hours.

Aside from its powerful performance, the Zenbook 14X OLED also features a built-in touchscreen that allows you to easily browse its bright and colourful OLED panel while working on your creative projects.

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card is one of the most powerful modern components available in this sleek and slim laptop. With its LED clamshell display, it's polished inside and out, which is reflected in its high price. It will be great for both gaming and creative workstations.

While we like the "premium feel" of the ASUS ROG Zephyrus M16 and note that it's not just about style, some of its patented technologies, particularly the ROG Smart Cooling Thermal System, don't quite perform as promised. Plus, the price is truly appalling.

The Asus Vivobook S14 is well balanced and despite its cheap retail price, it can handle low-demand programs and software with remarkable ease if you're looking for a slightly more economical model that can still pack a punch.

It comes with Intel 11th generation processors and either 8GB or 16GB of RAM, which aren't very impressive specs, but should be enough for students, light advertisers and office workers to get through the day. For any digital illustrator, it's built to be particularly adept at using creative tools such as Adobe Photoshop and Clip Paint Studio; perhaps save more demanding rendering jobs for a more powerful machine.

ASUS has once again produced a unique and fascinating laptop that we can confidently claim to be the best ASUS all-arounder on the market. This laptop impresses with its stunning display and fantastic features, especially its 2-in-1 form factor.

Although marketed as a gaming laptop, its powerful AMD CPU (the GPU could use an upgrade) and touchscreen capabilities make it a very adaptable system that will also work well for video creators and normal productivity. We were impressed by the Mini-LED technology, even if we weren't familiar with it from other desktop machines.

The Nvidia RTX 3050 Ti 4GB graphics card and 12th generation Intel processor come standard on the Asus Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (2022). These robust components enable this laptop to tackle more demanding tasks such as gaming, video editing and graphics rendering.

With 32 GB of RAM and a 14-core processor, the Zenbook Pro 14 Duo is a great PC for multitasking and productivity. Of course, there's more to making a great laptop than just the CPU and GPU. The device's dual-screen layout is the real star of the show in this regard, featuring a 12.7-inch IPS panel above the keyboard in addition to a stunning 14.5-inch 120Hz OLED main display. Even better, it can be used with a stylus and functions as a miniature drawing tablet.

In our review, the ASUS Zenbook S 13 OLED took our breath away with its superior performance, which we believe is good enough to compete with heavier and larger rivals (such as the Dell XPS 13 and MacBook Air). While it won't work for more demanding rendering tasks like 3D or video editing, it should work just fine for casual use and photo editing.

The screen may look small, but due to its sharp 2.8K resolution, it looks much larger than it is. Overall, it's pretty durable and should last you a few years, even if the internal graphics are terrible.

The ASUS TUG Gaming F15 is an excellent choice for both gaming and game creation because it is reasonably priced for a gaming laptop while yet providing amazing performance.

For 2022, this most recent model has been updated with 12th Gen Intel processors and a 1440p panel with a 165Hz refresh rate and 100% DCI-P3 gamut coverage. Unfortunately, despite its more affordable price, the CPU and GPU are still not the most powerful, but they are still rather good.
