Update: Our detailed review of the updated ZenBook 14 UX425EA is available here, with i5 and i7 Intel Tiger Lake hardware, and here’s our review of the even more recent and more powerful ZenBook 14X UX5401 generation. This is also built on Intel IceLake hardware, with its strong points and its quirks, but Asus also announced an identical ZenBook 14 UM425IA variant with AMD Ryzen 4000 hardware, an option for those interested in improved performance in this sort of a form factor. This ZenBook 14 UX425JA is a compact and portable 14-inch ultrabook with a few interesting particularities: a nice metallic build, an optional 1W matte 400-nits display, a large 67 Wh battery, and USB-C charging, some full-size ports and Thunderbolt 3 support, one of the better keyboards in the segment and a good glass clickpad. We’re going to primarily focus on the 14-inch UX425JA in this article, and touch on the smaller UX325JA in a separate post. I’ve used three different units, early-samples provided by Asus, but identical to the retail models you can already find in stores these days. I wanted to spend some time with these before sharing my thoughts with you, and I’ve been using them for the last couple of weeks, so I gathered my impressions down below.
