ASUS ZenBook 14 (2020) Intel Core i7-1165G7 11th Gen 14-inch (35.56 cms) FHD Thin & Light Laptop (16GB/512GB SSD/Office 2019/Windows 10/Intel Iris Xᵉ Graphics/Pine Grey/1.17 kg) External DVDRW

I have been using this Zenbook for around 6 months now. My beast is 16 GB Ram, 512 GB SSD with i7 processor. If you are looking for a premium look with a real good build quality, feel free to go for it.However, there is one thing that needs to be considered. Base panel of the laptop seems to be very thin but I guess it is kept as it is because of ease of servicing. Removing a thick base in an ultra light laptop may cause damage in service centers (my personal opinion).A very small amount of heating is there. It should be because of metallic body. For my case there was quite much amount of heating. Service center replaced motherboard and now it is very well doing its job.Heat exhaust is at upper side laptop edge of the keyboard. The heat directly hits base of the screen but the bottom beezel is quite thick. There does not seems to be any impact of this on screen.I do not need to use very heavy application. I have not faced any issues and it has been working fine as of now. After motherboard replacement, no heating issues as such.Pros:1. Light and Ultra thin laptop2. Good battery backup: 8- 10 hours with nominal office use.3. Premium Look4. Well balanced laptop: Great speed5. Screen quality: Awesome anti scratch screen. I did not put any screen guard and the screen looks new still. Video quality in the screen is next level.6. Camera: Very good but not excellent7. Fast charging: Laptop gets fully charged around less than an hour.8. Backlight keyboard and number pad in touchpad which comes up and you turn it on. Well done Asus!!9. Sound quality: Excellent. Harman Karodon speakers- one of the best in international marketCons:1. No 3.5 mm headphone jack. However, there is type c to 3.5mm headphone jack converter in the package.2. Small amount of heating because of metallic body.2. Only one USB jack.At the end, I would say that this is a well balanced laptop in this price range. You will love it.

I ordered a laptop from Amazon, and they didn't mention specs regarding the number of SSD slots, then I call to the ASUS service center and they told me that it has another separate SSD slot. But after purchasing the laptop, I did a live chat for reconfirming the same query, but this time they said me that it does support only 1 SSD slot.Another problem with this Laptop.1. The laptop has a heating issue2. The battery is going draining fastly3. The laptop is doing sound while pressing from the backside. (Not a Big Problem)4. Doing Live chat through Asus App will hang your device.

When I bought : may be the only things to highlight is :(1) only one USB port (mentioned in specification) . life becomes hard and it takes time to adopt.(2) top right button is Power Button. I am used to Delete being on top right. So it took time to adopt(still adopting to this)Else its a great peace of work. Very thin and handy design.after 1 year 10 months :After very normal usage (general work, surfing, browsing, may be 2-3 hours a day), its performance is going down drastically. Songs and video plays get stuck for mili seconds, there is a lag in video and audio when played online. So it has become kindle kind of notebook. I would not recommend buying it.

To be honest if you compare other companies with same specs , Asus is cheaper , and you think it's the best option . At least that's what I thought. But I regret my decision every day. It's been a year and after 6 month the fan stopped working, after 10 month the web cam stopped working. And when I give it to service centre the experience is worst . Getting a Rs. 90,000 laptop and having this kind of experience is worst. Please spend 10,000-20,000 more and get a Hp or Dell but never an Asus.

Usb to ethernet adaptor is included with the product but I didnt get it in the box, amazon should look into this issue.
