[ad_1] As you’d imagine, the ZenBook Duo instantly stands out from every other notebook when it’s open. But it’s another story if you’re not actually looking at the screens. ASUS is still relying on its metallic ZenBook case design, which is sleek and smooth to the touch. Its matte finish gives off an air of […]

Chromebook Flip C436 review: ASUS missed the sweet spot
[ad_1] In use Every time I write about a convertible Chromebook, I have to preface things by saying that I find very little utility in flipping a relatively large and heavy device around into tablet mode, so how well that works has little bearing on my evaluation. That said, the Chromebook Flip C436 has a […]
ASUS’ ROG Zephyrus G gaming laptop gets a $300 discount at Best Buy
[ad_1] This is clearly a 2019 laptop — you won’t find a Ryzen 4000-series chip or high-capacity storage here. The GTX 1660 Ti is still as good as it gets for mid-tier graphics, though, and this should still be a speedy system as a whole. The Zephyrus G even fairly light (4.6lb) and discreet as […]
ASUS Zephyrus G14 review: Ultraportable gaming done right
[ad_1] The Zephyrus G14’s keyboard did a great job of keeping up with my furious shooter spree, thanks to excellent feedback and satisfying key depth. I found it a bit more frustrating to use for productivity work, though. While I can type on it well enough, the keycaps always felt a bit too small for […]
ASUS’ 27-inch, 165Hz gaming monitor is $150 cheaper for Black Friday
[ad_1] Don’t worry if that’s overkill for your needs. ASUS’ VG278Q is also going on sale, dipping to $200 from the usual $279. The 27-inch screen tops out at a 1080p resolution, 144Hz and a not-so-vibrant TN panel, but that combination also gives you a 1ms gray-to-gray pixel response time. If that kind of responsiveness […]

[ad_1] The model that’s currently available in the US is the “Elite” edition which features 512GB of internal storage and a Category 18 LTE modem capable of theoretical download speeds of 1.2Gbps. Later this year, ASUS plans to bring the “Ultimate” edition ROG Phone II to the US as well. The top-of-the-line model features a […]
What’s next for fitness wearables?
[ad_1] The simplest way a wearable can track your activity is by using a gyroscope (or similar) to track the position of your hand in three-dimensional space. It can then, algorithmically, infer where your body is, and what it — and you — are doing, using what is essentially very smart guesswork. Pedometers that count […]
ASUS’ ProArt StudioBook One is a breathtakingly powerful laptop
[ad_1] The StudioBook One is part of ASUS’ massively-expanded line of ProArt laptops, designed for “creative professionals.” The company, like many, is trying to steal a slice of Apple’s MacBook Pro pie now that the laptops have been beset by gripes around its performance, battery life and keyboard. Most notably, ASUS has crammed NVIDIA’s headline-grabbing […]
GlobalFoundries lawsuit threatens sales bans against Apple, NVIDIA
[ad_1] The consequences could still be serious. In one of the ITC complaints, GlobalFoundries called for import bans on many of Apple’s devices with mobile chips, including the iPhone XS, AirPods, Apple Watch Series 4 and Apple TV 4K. It would still be highly damaging for others. NVIDIA’s GPU business revolves heavily around assembly at […]
