#LAPTOP WITH SCREENS UNVEILED WINDOWS#
What’s Inside the Zenbook 17 Fold OLED?Įquipped with Windows 11 Pro, the ASUS Zenbook 17 foldable laptop utilizes the latest 12 th Generation Intel Core i7 U-Series processors and Intel Iris X e Graphics. If you want a giant reader (and have decently strong forearms), you can even use it as a book reader. Place the hard keyboard on top of the lower part of the folded screen and you’ll feel like you’re working on a laptop.ģ. Perhaps you want a large tablet lay the screen flat and tap away on the touchscreen or built-in keyboard. Need a large display, perhaps during in-person sales sessions with wedding or portrait photography clients? Just use the kickstand to prop up the screen.Ģ. Given its design, this ASUS foldable laptop offers flexibility when put to use:ġ.
One of the specs is “military grade,” although we’re not sure what that means or what part of the device it refers to. Still, to have a 17-inch touchscreen at your fingertips, the size and weight is quite manageable. It weighs 3.64 pounds, which is a little heavier than we anticipated, and since the keyboard is lightweight, the display is responsible for most of the weight.
Altogether, the system measures 14.9 x 11.32 x 0.34-0.46 inches. There’s an on-screen keyboard as well as a full-size, freestanding Bluetooth® keyboard with a touchpad that can be stored in the center of the device when folded. When open, the foldable laptop features a 4:3, 17.3-inch 2.5K touchscreen folded in half, you’ll get dual 3:2, 12.5-inch displays with a resolution of 1920 x 1280. There are several features that may be appealing to photographers, not least of all its size and portability. ASUS has tested their hinges by folding and unfolding it about 30,000 times, which should mean a relatively long lifespan for the Zenbook 17. We haven’t had a first-hand look yet, so we have to wonder about how the hinge that allows for the fold affects the display. The display is not limited to single or dual screens thanks to ScreenXpert, you can section the display into multiple screens to conveniently access various applications without having to move between windows. One of those came from ASUS when the company unveiled its Zenbook 17 Fold OLED, a foldable laptop that seems to be a major improvement on previous attempts at this fascinating technology. This year’s CES show might be a little smaller than the gargantuan assembly of technology from years past, but exciting announcements still abound.
