ExpertBook B9: The world’s lightest 14-inch business laptop

ExpertBook B9 (B9400CBA) is an ultraportable powerhouse that doesn’t compromise quality and performance for size, enabling effortless mobile working and uninterrupted collaboration. The lightweight magnesium-alloy chassis weighs only 880g , with the superior-quality forged magnesium-lithium lid and reinforced construction built to pass military-grade endurance standards and stringent ASUS torture tests. Despite a slim design, ExpertBook B9 packs up to 16 hours of battery life and offers high-performance computing that will enable executives, hybrid employees and travelers, and other business users to meet the demands and daily wear-and-tear of the changing workplace. The laptop has EPEAT Gold certification and sustainable packaging.

ExpertBook B7 Flip: The latest 14-inch 5G ExpertBook convertible

ExpertBook B7 Flip (B7402FBA) is the ultimate tool for mobile and flexible working, with outstanding performance and Intel vPro® support. With up to 11 hours of battery life and optional 5G, ExpertBook B7 Flip enables businesses to work anywhere and any way they want with a high-speed, personal secured network to reduce interruptions and risks associated with using public WiFi networks. ExpertBook B7 Flip has a magnesium-aluminum alloy design that is light and thin yet durable, with the ErgoLift hinge enabling it to flip by 360° so it can be used as a traditional laptop configuration, as a tablet, or anything in between. The hinge is tested for more than 30,000 open/close cycles. The laptop features a 16:10 touchscreen, magnetic ASUS stylus, the exclusive ASUS NumberPad, biometric login including facial login and fingerprint sensor, and ASUS PrivateView mode — which fades the screen at a 45° viewing angle — along with comprehensive I/O connectivity including support for up to three external displays.

ExpertBook B3 Detachable: First detachable ExpertBook with a dual-orientation stand

ExpertBook B3 Detachable (B3000) features one of the most agile designs on the market, with up to 21 hours battery life for full-day productivity. The dual-orientation design with a woven fabric ExpertStand and the quick-connect, detachable ExpertBoard keyboard suit many ways of working from anywhere, enabling users to shift from horizontal to vertical configuration in seconds, and from tablet to laptop. ExpertBook B3 Detachable is the first Windows laptop powered by a Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 7c Gen 2 compute platform with a fast-charging garaged stylus . For video conferencing, ExpertBook B3 Detachable includes ASUS Two-Way AI Noise-Cancelation technology, a 5 MP front-facing camera with innovative 3D noise-reduction (3DNR) technology, and a 13 MP world-facing camera that eliminates up to 94% of the random noise that naturally affects any camera, especially in low-light conditions.

In addition to ExpertBook Laptops and ExpertCenter desktops, mini PCs, workstations and AiOs, the ASUS Expert series includes accessories that enable any hybrid or remote work configuration, such as the ASUS SimPro Dock 2, ASUS Webcam Monitor, ASUS Ultra Mini Universal Adapter, and more. The portfolio features a three-year product warranty, and users can choose to add ASUS Premium Care for further protection.
