3 reasons to BUY the ASUS ZenBook Flip S UX371

1. The design and build quality

The notebook is entirely made out of solid metal, which both makes it look astonishing, and gives it a nice cool to the touch feeling. The premium feeling doesn’t end there as the device’s base has chamfered edges on the base and the lid has an interesting circular pattern on the back. The copper trim around the base and the glass gives the laptop’s design a bit of a spice, which is appreciated in an all-black device. What’s more, is that the display is protected by glass.

2. The good parts of the display

The display on the ASUS ZenBook Flip S UX371 is a 4K OLED one, making for a very crisp image. Its contrast ratio is basically infinite and it has comfortable viewing angles. What is more, is that it covers 100% of the sRGB and DCI-P3 color gamuts, resulting in an extremely punchy image.

3. The features and the accessories

Once you unbox the notebook ou get greeted by a leather sleeve, that is just as stylish as the laptop itself and a stylus pen that works perfectly with the device. What is more, is that the new generation of Tiger Lake Intel CPUs brings Thunderbolt 4 support and the new Wi-Fi 6 standard, ensuring great connection and speeds.

2 reasons NOT to buy the ASUS ZenBook Flip S UX371

1. The Upgradeability

What is getting more and more common with small devices is the lack of upgradability. This ASUS, in particular, has its RAM soldered onto the board, meaning that replacing the memory in the future is impossible. What is somewhat better though is the availability of one M.2 PCIe x4 drive for storage upgrade down the line.

Below is a detailed teardown video of the ASUS ZenBook Flip S UX731:

2. The bad parts of the display

Not everything is perfect though as the display on the ASUS ZenBook Flip S UX731, is lacking in its color accuracy. Where it disappointed us once again was in the fact that it uses heavy PWM when the brightness is below 90 nits. However, our Health-Guard profile managed to eliminate that problem completely.

Below we have provided a test of it using both the stock settings (Left) and with our Gaming and Web design profile applied (right).
