ZenBook 3 Deluxe achieves the almost-impossible, featuring a gorgeous 14-inch display in an elegant and compact chassis that's no bigger than many 13-inch laptops. It's an unrivaled combination of power and beauty, giving you the perfect balance between portability and productivity.

Measuring just 12.9mm thin and weighing only 2.4lbs, ZenBook 3 Deluxe has everything you need for superb on-the-go performance, including a 7th Generation Intel^® Core™ i7 processor, 512GB PCIe SSD, two USB Type-C™ (USB-C) ports with Thunderbolt™ 3 for dual 4K UHD display supports, and a powerful quad-speaker audio system.

ZenBook 3 Deluxe takes ZenBook 3 to the next level – for the ultimate prestige and performance.

Crafted to Perfection

ZenBook 3 Deluxe has a very simple design philosophy: Never compromise. It's a masterpiece of craftsmanship, with a beauty that reflects a painstaking attention to detail.

The perfect curves of the all-aluminum chassis are carved from a single block of metal that then goes through a 40-step process to create the iconic ultra-fine Spun-metal finish with its lustrous, silky sheen.

A complex two-phase anodizing process is then used to create the elegant golden diamond-cut edges and unique golden ASUS lid logo. The result is a breathtakingly exquisite design that offers the perfect combination of beauty, mobility, performance and productivity.

The 13-Inch Laptop with a 14-Inch Display

The chassis of ZenBook 3 Deluxe is the size of many 13-inch laptops – yet it features an extra-large 14-inch display. ZenBook 3 Deluxe is constructed from premium, aerospace-grade aluminum alloy.

This grade of alloy is 50% stronger than standard alloy, allowing the ZenBook 3 Deluxe to have an amazingly thin 12.9mm profile and weigh only 2.4lbs. ASUS ZenBook 3 Deluxe features 0.55mm thick Corning^® Gorilla^® Glass 5, which is the toughest cover glass yet while delivering the damage resistance Gorilla Glass is known for.

Ultra-narrow Bezel and Ultra-realistic Visuals

Fitting a 14-inch Full HD display into a 12-inch frame wasn't easy. One of the keys to achieving this for ZenBook 3 Deluxe is its NanoEdge ultra-narrow display bezel, which is just 7.46mm wide.

This allows the biggest possible screen area, giving ZenBook 3 Deluxe a class-leading 84% screen-to-body ratio. Wide-viewing-angle technology ensures undistorted color and great contrast viewing angle up to 178°, for easy collaboration and screen sharing.

This superb display with its realistic color reproduction and crisp detail must be seen to be believed. To deliver the ultimate visual experiences, ZenBook 3 Deluxe harnesses the power of exclusive ASUS display technologies, with optimized hardware and software components combined to deliver the best possible imagery.

Unbelievably Powerful

ZenBook 3 Deluxe is built to deliver unprecedented performance, using only carefully selected, best-in-class components. These include the latest 7th Generation Intel^® Core™ i7 processor; up to 16GB of 2133MHz ultra-fast, power-saving LPDDR3 memory; an up to 512GB PCIe^®3.0 x 4 SSD that is 3 times faster than SATA SSDs; and the latest Thunderbolt™ 3-enabled USB-C™ ports for up to 40 Gbps data transfers, dual 4K UHD external displays or external graphics dock support.

So there's no need to worry about what you can or can't do with ZenBook 3 Deluxe – with this kind of power the sky's the limit! ZenBook 3 Deluxe has two USB-C ports that incorporate the latest Thunderbolt™ 3 technology for versatile, ultra-fast connections.

Thunderbolt™ 3 supports data transfers at up to 40Gbps, which is twice the bandwidth of Thunderbolt™ 2 and 8 times faster than USB 3.0. The Thunderbolt™ 3-enabled USB-C ports also support power delivery. Additionally, Thunderbolt™ 3 delivers enhanced graphics options to improve productivity, with support for dual 4K UHD external displays. With Thunderbolt™ 3, your imagination is the limit.

No-compromises Keyboard

The best ultraportable laptop deserves an exceptional keyboard. With ZenBook 3 Deluxe, the keyboard was engineered into the design from the start. Its full-size backlit keyboard has impressive 1.2mm key travel, making typing more comfortable and more accurate.

ZenBook 3 Deluxe also includes a precision touchpad that's cleverly engineered for maximum comfort and accuracy, with a glass covering for smooth control, and incorporating palm-rejection technology, multi-touch gestures and handwriting support.

The Coolest of Cool

The challenge in designing a fast, ultra-thin laptop boils down to basic physics. To prevent the laptop from getting too hot, warm air inside needs to be expelled as quickly as possible. For the mighty Intel^® Core™ i7 processor in ZenBook 3 Deluxe ASUS engineers has to invent a brand-new cooling system using state-of-the-art components, including a liquid-crystal-polymer fan impeller that's just 0.3mm thick and a copper-alloy heat pipe with walls that are a mere 0.1mm thick.

This innovative cooling system is just 3mm high, and the warm air from the interior is gently expelled via hidden vents in the hinge. The overall design allows for efficient, serenely quiet cooling – even under full loads.

Sound that will Amaze You

To give ZenBook 3 Deluxe unsurpassed audio capabilities, the ASUS Golden Ear team and audiophile specialists Harman Kardon joined forces to produce the next generation of ASUS SonicMaster audio technology, and the results are astonishing.

An array of your separate high-quality speakers is powered by a smart four-channel amplifier to bring you true surround-sound that envelops you with distortion-free, cinema-quality realism.

ZenBook 3 Deluxe really does give you the most incredible sound you've ever heard on a laptop.
