The Taiwan giant ASUS launches new ZenBook 13, ZenBook 14 and ZenBook 15 series with ScreenPad 2.0 technology
At the Computex 2019, ASUS celebrated its 30 years and announced some great products including the Asus ScreenPad Duo laptop with dual screen.
We have seen a trend of dual display laptops at the Computex 2019 and the new Asus ZenBook series seems no exception. The Taiwan giant already introduced its touchpad-turned-ScreenPad laptops for its ZenBook series for more than a year now.
Now they have included the new ScreenPad Technology 2.0 for all its existing ZenBook series including ZenBook 13, ZenBook 14 and obviously the ZenBook 15 series of laptops.
The small secondary display in the trackpad helps a lot to do other tasks even if you are focused on the primary job on your main display. It is a perfect solution for professionals at work and this enhances the productivity and flexibility of using a laptop.
The new ScreenPad™ 2.0 brings an intuitive smartphone-like interface lets you easily manage tasks and create your own seamless multitasking workflow.
There’s a series of handy ASUS utility apps to boost productivity including Quick Key — for one-tap automation of complex keyboard sequences — along with Handwriting, Number Key, Doc Xpert, Slide Xpert and Sheet Xpert.
The new ZenBook 13, 14, and 15 come with a NanoEdge display, which simply is fewer bezels and more screen-to-body ratio. Surprisingly these laptops have support only up to 8th generation Core i7 processors when already 9th generation and 10th generation CPUs are being used for other laptops.
Apart from the processor, the GPU is powered by up to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 GPU, up to 16GB RAM, and ultra-fast PCIe SSD storage.
