CES 2025: ASUS debuts Zenbook A14—world’s lightest Copilot+ PC

At CES 2025, ASUS has introduced the Zenbook A14—the world’s lightest Snapdragon-powered laptop, weighing under a kilogram.

One of its standout features is its long battery life, with the high capacity 70Wh battery lasting up to 32 hours, or so ASUS claims at least.

The Zenbook A14 also introduces a first for the Zenbook series—an entire chassis crafted from Ceraluminum. This material, exclusive to ASUS, is a durable ceramic blend resistant to scratches, wear, and fingerprints.

Under the hood, the laptop is powered by the latest Snapdragon X Series processors, featuring a Qualcomm Hexagon NPU that delivers up to 45 TOPS.

This results in an enhanced Copilot+ experience, with AI-driven features like Live Captions, Cocreator in Paint, and Generative Fill in Paint, along with super resolution and other advanced tools in Photos.

More features, including Recall (Preview) and Click to Do (Preview), are also on the way.
