MOBILITY

The laptop that moves with you!

Topping the scales at a mere 1 kg, you can see we’ve made an extra effort to make Zenbook S 13 OLED the perfect size for your on-the-move lifestyle. To keep it compact, we use CNC machining to make the most efficient use of the available space for components. Its side profile measures just 1 cm — that’s about as slim as a pen!

How we achieveultra-thin and super-light

Display layer infusion

To achieve the incredibly slim profile, we've embedded a thinner yet fully featured FHD IR camera in the CNC-machined lid. We've also used a specially designed ultra-slim OLED panel.

30% slimmer

than the previous gen model⁵

Better use of interior space

We use circuit boards with fewer layers and a higher wiring density. This means they can contain many more transistors, giving better performance with less weight, and in a more compact space.

25% slimmer

than the previous gen model⁵

The best materials

With the durability of metal and the lightness of plastic, magnesium-aluminum alloy is used for the keyboard deck, forming a tough structure that doesn’t need any extra support. An extremely thin glass covering is used for the touchpad, for an ultra-smooth navigation experience.

Design

Elegant colors

It comes in two gorgeous colors: the brand-new Basalt Gray and the classic Ponder Blue. Basalt Gray is inspired by the natural beauty of stone formations. Ponder Blue is a darker color scheme inspired by silent nights spent alone.

Two Zenbook S 13 OLED, one in Basalt Gray and the other in Ponder Blue, stand on their hinge on matching colored boards.

Contemporary silhouette

Minimalist style is an important part of the Zenbook design language, with clean lines and a svelte silhouette that turn heads. It's an ultraportable that reflects the pure design philosophy of modern minimalism.

PLASMA CERAMIC ALUMINUM

Pioneering sustainability

For the first time, we used a special process to transform the aluminum lid into a plasma ceramic aluminum exclusive to ASUS. This process uses pure water, and no organic compounds, strong acids, or heavy metals are required. Instead, this environmentally low-impact bath-based method produces a physical and chemical transformation of the aluminum. This results in increased wear resistance, corrosion protection, thermal management, hardness⁶, and lifespan.

“It feels like nothing else. It always looks like new.”

The color, shades, porosity, and texture are further fine-tuned using temperature and electricity. Incredibly, this makes each lid individually unique. No two are alike! And even better, the alloy will ensure that the laptop’s unique look will last for its entire lifetime.

“Minimum eco impact, maximum practicality”

Plasma ceramic aluminum components are also fully recyclable at the end of their life span. The resulting corrosion protection is imparted by changes to the substrate itself, rather than by adding sprayed-on coatings that may be difficult to recycle.

Natural elements have long inspired the design and craftsmanship of the Zenbook series. To do our part to protect the fundamental sources of our inspiration, ASUS is committed to do more with less through Zenbook. We try to mitigate its carbon footprint by incorporating recycled materials and designing more eco-conscious packaging. In addition, Zenbook S 13 OLED exceeds the ENERGY STAR® energy efficiency standard by 60% to reduce its electricity consumption. Via these sustainable actions, the overarching goal of this device’s sustainability initiatives is to achieve carbon neutrality.

According to overall laptop thickness, as of February 20, 2023 based on internal ASUS market analysis comparing Zenbook S 13 OLED (UX5304) with competing products in its class (laptops with an OLED screen measuring 13.3 inches diagonal) from vendors including Acer, Apple, HP, Huawei, Lenovo, Microsoft and Samsung.
Dimension: 296.2 x 216.3 x 10.9 ± 0.5 mm; thickness might vary according to specifications.
Weight might vary according to specifications.
The stated 3.45 mm width of the side bezel is the distance between the edge of the non-active screen display area and the inside edge of the case. If the case width is included, the side bezel width is 4.8 mm. Measured based on standard (anti-glare) display configuration. The top bezel width is 4.8 mm.
The previous gen model stated here is referring to UM5302TA.
The hardness tests were conducted by ASUS on August 30, 2022. Test configuration: Zenbook UX5304 Basalt Gray model. Test settings: 765 g pencil to scratch the chassis while the pencil tip and laptop surface form a 45^° degree angle, No discernible scratch was left on the surface.
Carbon footprint calculation is based on the CO2 emission data of the UX5304 laptop’s metal chassis production. The comparison is focused on the PIR metal itself compared to a 100% virgin-metal chassis, assuming other factors that may influence CO2 emissions are equal.
ASUS Zenbook S 13 OLED (UX5304) is registered as EPEAT Gold and has achieved EPEAT Climate+. See www.epeat.net for registration status and tier levels by country.
The figures are based on theoretical performance. Actual performance may vary in real-world situations.
Performance claim is based on the Cinebench R23 Multi Core benchmark, comparing the score of Zenbook 14 UX3405MA tested by ASUS in Nov 2023 (configured with Intel^® Core Ultra 7 155H, 16 GB LPDDR5 RAM, a 1 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 SSD) and Zenbook 14 UX3402VA (with an Intel^® Core i7-1360P processor, 16 GB LPDDR5 RAM, and a 1 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 SSD). Test settings: select Performance mode under Fan profile in MyASUS, and idle the laptop for 10mins prior to running the benchmark under AC mode. It’s important to note that results may vary based on different specifications and testing environments.
Copilot in Windows (in preview) is rolling out gradually within the latest update to Windows 11 in select global markets. Timing of availability varies by device and market. Learn more: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/copilot-ai-features?r=1#faq
Average tested result in MyASUS Splendid Display P3 and sRGB color gamut: Delta E < 1, +/- 0.5, and may vary by specification. Please note that the actual performance also may vary under different test procedures, equipment and patterns.
Compared to average LCD displays in the market, measuring energy emission of blue light in between 415-455 nm wavelength.
To further maximize the protection of your OLED laptop, ASUS has included OLED Care settings such as pixel refresh and pixel shifting, which are turned on by default. It’s important to note that if any burn-in issues do occur within the warranty period, which might vary by countries, ASUS offers a free exchange service for the affected OLED laptop as long as the user did not manually turn off the OLED Care functions.
Unless otherwise stated, all performance claims are based on theoretical performance. Actual figures may vary in real-world situations.
The charging speed of a Power Delivery charger will match the connected adapter’s power output, up to a maximum of 100 watts. USB-C^® Easy Charge provides 4.5 watt charging when connected to a non-Power Delivery charger, including most portable and USB Type-A to USB-C^® chargers. Some portable chargers may not support such features, depending on the configuration.
Battery tests conducted by ASUS on January 3rd, 2024 using the 1080p Video Playback scenario. Test configuration: Zenbook UX5304MA, OLED non-touch panel, Intel U5-125U, 1 TB SSD, 16 GB RAM. Test settings: WiFi enabled but disconnected (not connected to any access point), Windows Power Plan set to Balanced, display brightness set to 150 cd/m2. Actual battery life may vary depending on product configuration, usage, operational conditions and power management settings. Battery life will decrease over the lifetime of the battery.
This data is derived from ASUS laboratory testing, which involves simulating daily charging frequency as the testing standard. The actual lifespan of the battery may differ depending on factors such as product configuration, usage patterns, operational conditions, and power management settings. Over time, the battery’s longevity will naturally decrease. For more comprehensive information, please refer to the provided link. https://www.asus.com/support/faq/1051114
The color-temperature-adjustment feature is available with OLED models only.
Selected products are tested using enhanced military-grade MIL-STD-810H durability standards, with 12 test methods and 26 test procedures, to ensure extraordinary toughness. Based on ASUS internal market research using available information and testing reports from main laptop brand websites on Oct 28, 2022, ASUS consumer laptops use a regime consisting of 26 test procedures, which is the consumer laptop industry’s strictest and most extensive test regime for the MIL-STD-810H standard.
The testing regime includes the requirements of both military-grade standards and ASUS quality tests, and varies depending on device. MIL-STD-810 testing is conducted on selected ASUS products only. Note that the MIL-STD-810 testing helps to ensure the quality of ASUS products but does not indicate a particular fitness for military use. The test is performed under laboratory conditions. Any damage caused by attempts to replicate these test conditions would be considered accidental, and would not be covered by the standard ASUS warranty. Additional coverage is available with ASUS Premium Care.
