ASUS Philippines today announced the official local launch of its latest ultraportable laptop, the ASUS Zenbook 14 (UX3480). Starting at PHP 76,995, the updated lineup introduces ASUS’s proprietary Ceraluminum material in new nature-inspired colorways, along with Copilot+ PC certified processors spanning Intel, AMD, and Snapdragon platforms.
Refined Craftsmanship and Nature-Inspired Colors
The latest ASUS Zenbook 14 features a lid crafted from Ceraluminum, an ASUS-exclusive ceramic-aluminum composite designed to offer high scratch and wear resistance alongside a tactile ceramic-like feel. Weighing as light as 1.1 kg, the laptop targets mobile professionals, students, and travelers looking for portability without compromising build quality.
ASUS is introducing three new nature-inspired color options for this generation:
- Arctic Blue (Intel and AMD models)
- Komodo Coral (Snapdragon model)
- Zabriskie Beige (Snapdragon model, arriving Q4 2026)
To maintain operation under load, ASUS upgraded the thermal module with a larger fan and refined airflow, boosting the total thermal design power (TDP) up to 35W—a 25% increase over the prior model. Power is supplied by a battery rated for up to 33 hours of life, rechargeable via a compact USB-C power adapter.
AMD, Intel and Snapdragon Copilot+ PC
Every variant in the Zenbook 14 (UX3480) series qualifies as a Copilot+ PC, incorporating dedicated Neural Processing Units (NPUs) to handle on-device AI workloads. Buyers can select from three processor families:
- Intel Configuration (UX3480AA): Powered by up to Intel Core Ultra 9 Series 3 processors featuring up to a 50 TOPS NPU.
- AMD Configuration (UX3480KA): Powered by up to an AMD Ryzen AI 7 345 processor with a 50 TOPS NPU.
- Snapdragon Configuration (UX3480QA): Powered by a Snapdragon X processor with a 45 TOPS NPU.
Visuals, Audio, and Everyday Features
The laptop comes equipped with a 14-inch 16:10 WUXGA ASUS OLED panel with up to an 89% screen-to-body ratio. Audio is handled by Dolby Atmos-tuned dual speakers. Despite its thin profile, the Zenbook 14 retains a full complement of physical I/O ports to minimize the need for external adapters, including USB-C, USB Type-A, HDMI, and a 3.5mm audio combo jack. Input devices include a backlit keyboard and an enlarged smart-gesture touchpad.
ASUS Zenbook 14 Companion Accessory: ASUS ZenMouse MD202
Alongside the laptop, ASUS introduced the ZenMouse MD202, a wireless mouse featuring a matching Ceraluminum top cover available in Moher Gray and Scandinavian White. It features dual-mode Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless connectivity with multi-device pairing support for up to four devices. The internal Track-on-Glass sensor allows tracking across various surfaces, while sensitivity can be adjusted from 800 to 4,200 DPI via the MyASUS app. The built-in rechargeable battery provides up to seven months of runtime, with a one-minute USB-C fast charge yielding up to 16 hours of use.
