ASUS Announces Zenbook 14 OLED (UM3406)

FREMONT, CA, Apr 10, 2024 – ASUS has announced the all-new Zenbook 14 OLED (UM3406) , a sleek and sophisticated ultraportable laptop. Its thin-and-light chassis houses the power of the latest AI-enabled AMD Ryzen 7 8840HS processor along with AMD Radeon graphics, allowing users to amplify their efficiency.

Premium ultraportable design

Zenbook 14 OLED (UM3406) delivers uncompromising mobility with its sleek, lightweight, and sturdy all-metal design and enhanced-lifespan 75 Wh battery. At just over half an inch thin and weighing only 2.8 lbs. [i], the elegant chassis is around 10% more compact than the previous generation. The specially designed battery supports up to 20% more charging cycles compared to previous models, protecting the user’s investment, and helping to increase the laptop’s longevity. It also offers long-lifespan of unplugged operation for all-day productivity. Additionally, USB-C Easy Charge makes it simple to recharge from any suitable USB-C adapter, power outlet, or power bank.

Premium performance

Built around the latest AI-powered AMD Ryzen 7 8840HS processor with AMD Radeon graphics, Zenbook 14 OLED (UM3406) packs a powerful punch. Its ultrafast up to 1 TB SSD storage, 16 GB RAM and WiFi 6E (802.11ax) allow users to wait less and work faster, wherever they are.
The AMD Ryzen 7 8840HS processor features the integrated AMD Ryzen AI Accelerator which, combined with intelligent workload optimization, frees up CPU and GPU resources for optimal performance. Beyond performance and power efficiency, Ryzen AI unlocks new possibilities – it accelerates multitasking, enhances real-time video quality, boosts productivity, fosters collaboration, and paves the way for future advancements. For added convenience, Zenbook 14 OLED [ii] has a dedicated Copilot key that allows users to effortlessly dive into Windows 11’s AI-powered tools with just one press.

The vivid WUXGA (1920X1200) ASUS Lumina OLED 60 Hz display makes every moment incredible with its 500-nit peak brightness, web-friendly 16:10 aspect ratio, and 87% screen-to-body ratio. Additionally, adaptive sync automatically adjusts the refresh rate for always-smooth visuals.

Despite its ultra-compact form factor, Zenbook 14 OLED (UM3406) includes a comprehensive set of full-size high-speed I/O ports – including USB 4.0 Gen 3 Type-C, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, HDMI 2.1 (TMDS) and a convenient 3.5 mm audio jack – so users don’t need to carry dongles or adapters around with them.

Premium user experience

Zenbook 14 OLED (UM3406) is designed with the user firmly in mind, incorporating a range of advanced features to enhance their on-the-go lifestyle. Whatever the user is listening to, the powerful, crystal-clear sound delivered by new super-linear speakers, smart amplifier, and ASUS Audio Booster in the Harman Kardon-certified audio system will give their ears a treat with the multidimensional Dolby Atmos sound.
When late-night deadlines approach, the new quiet ASUS ErgoSense keyboard reduces aural distractions to a minimum while offering a supremely comfortable typing experience – thanks to the fine-tuned key pitch, dished key caps, and ergonomic key travel.
To guard the user’s privacy, the FHD IR camera has a physical shutter. Additionally, an exceptional video conferencing experience is assured by the AI noise cancelation and built-in camera enhancements for crystal-clear audio and crisp video.

Made for the Earth

ASUS is committed to do more with less through Zenbook. Zenbook 14 OLED (UM3406) aims to minimize its environmental impact across the entire product lifecycle – from material use and manufacturing, through assembly, use, and end of life. We have mitigated its carbon footprint by incorporating up to 50% post-consumer-recycled (PCR) materials and designing eco-conscious packaging that is 100% recyclable. To maximize the lifespan of the laptop – and therefore improve sustainability – strict US military-grade testing under a stringent test regime ensures outstanding durability.
