During CES 2025, the company launched a new ultra-light Asus Zenbook A14 Snapdragon laptop. This is the lightest 14-inch Copilot+ PC that weighs only 1 kg. It is the first ASUS laptop powered by the new Qualcomm Snapdragon X AI-enabled processor, with up to 32 hours of extreme battery life.
Asus Zenbook A 14 specs and features:
