Oh
kind of laptop is this Gordon this atom is the brand-new Asus Zenbook s13 of
course in my hand looks like another breast aluminum laptop although I do
like the circular pattern pretty nice you get your Asus logo but there's
something pretty special about this what's special and that is this BAM
possibly the smallest body to bezel ratio in the world right now you can see
just how narrow that bezel is all the way around right I mean it's just like
there's no bezel it's really it's the next level but here's the thing that's
very interesting though other laptops like the XPS 13 that kicked off this
whole narrow bezel Ultrabook craze they put the camera down low first in one
corner then they moved to the middle latest generation it goes up top right
issues said you know we know you want your camera but you'll want narrow bezel
so they're doing the anti notch I just made that up
and I think description because you think about it if this were a phone if
this were a phone company they put a stupid notch in here you wouldnt be able
to see your Excel spreadsheet they know that does not work for people on the PC
so they actually the bezel look so actually the actual bezel just comes up
a little bit Brenneman here's like a little more contrast my fingers right
there and you can see the camera they're miniature tiny not witness hello though
but standard camera two mics but you don't you still get on top but you don't
get some makers just make the top bezel bigger this one still get your narrow
bezel you get a little bit of that notch so the anti that's what you look when it
so you know actually it's interesting so it doesn't it does overhang the body a
little bit which of course and someone who won't complain about but look the
nice thing about that is now you got something to grab let's see if I got
this right so a lot of people of course also look
to go to my laptop open up with one finger and look they've done it yeah
look at that oh do that again do it again check it
out look you can do it it's very easy one-hand opening people like that place
inside whiskey like UI 785 265 pretty impressive but also GeForce em f's 150
in a sue said it's the 15-watt non nerf version of the MX 115 not the 10 watt
version apparently that's floating out there it also has the the screen tilts
up when you open it up and the main reason is I mean it tilts the whole body
up check this out Adam is the cooling right so you've gotten you've got
discrete graphics you've got a quad-core whisky Lake chip in there SSD all that
other stuff you need cooling so you know typically on a normal laptop the bottom
isn't right on the layered so they they prop it up by putting chunks of rubber
on excuse uses the screen that tilt up the entire laptop and this getting
decent I mean the angle screen angles are pretty decent - I like once I go
full flat it's pretty hard to deal with it I mean but it's pretty close small
other features of course Brussel aluminum everywhere no - hello but you
do get a fingerprint matter these things work great standard piano hinge let's
look at the ports though USB see USB see for charging some microSD and look at
that type a type A and look how narrow it is there is nothing left to shave off
of that now we know some people say oh we took off the top a to make less room
but look this is one thin ass laptop and they have a type a port in there if
you're like me I don't want to give up Taipei yet it's real pain not to have it
you lose your download you're screwed I like having that Type A in there there's
also one controversial decision I gotta say in this Zen book as 13 both of these
USB C ports are just USB see they do charging of course so you get the
goodness of using your phone charger for it but no Thunderbolt 3 huh not really
clear to me why they're doing that we do know that Intel said well when's this
video gonna run we do know that there is a CPU coming out with out of all three
built into it that might be part of it I'm not really sure but nice yeah you
know high five for the the type-a core hype a high five for that let's look at
that again and so this is the 13 inch version they
also have a 14 yeah they have the 14 so if the purchasing this is the older s 14
as you can see so this is the old model but at least their model compared the
s14 this is nothing new when they also announced but you can see the bezel
differences thirteen point nine inch screen I know everybody's gonna see this
and they can say all the 13.3 inch but it's actually basically a fourteen inch
panel in what you would normally get a three point thirteen point three out of
pretty damn impressive and again you know you get your anti notch here with
your camera on top you get your one hand opening nice and you get your type a
pricing not known they have told this it will be more than one dollar it'll
probably be more than one thousand dollars and also availability probably
q2 so I'm gonna guess you know AC sounds very competitive ultrabook prices you
know thousand plus whatever you can figure whatever SSD but q2 when it comes
out and we'll see how it performs hopefully get one in for a review cool
awesome thanks Jordan okay
