    I bought the Zenbook 14X after much deliberation and cross shopping as a work and Lightroom on the go machine.
    When on battery it’s quick but not as quick as you’d think in Lightroom when handling raw photos from a D850. It’s what I’d call adequate performance on battery. On wall power it’s a beast - the i9 13900H performs like a 13600K with half the power, it never gets loud or hot either.
    The killer feature is the screen. It really is next level for editing (120hz 3000x2000 OLED).

    I absolutely loathe that so many laptop makers are doing half-and-half soldered/SODIMM RAM configs. I know RAM is one of those "it goes bad immediately or it's good for years" things, but if the soldered RAM fails out of warranty, your only recourse is sending it somewhere that can do a complete teardown and resoldering of new chips. They still make the "stacked" SODIMM slots.

    This configuration is great for photogrammetry due to its CPU, the RTX 3050 is pretty fast for its cost, but the 4 gb VRAM will let you down if you try anything related to render or Unreal Engine.

      The CPU is limited to 65w on my ZenBook pro 14 2023. cTDP up at 65w, 35w down.
      None of the reviews have this phenomenon, and on top of it the CPU paste is garbage and the wattage drops immediately down to just above 50w.

    Thanks for the video! I've watched another one of your videos on the Pro model and I'm still a bit confused on the upgrade on the RAM. If I get the 16GB version, can I then install 16GB in the free slot? The reason I'm asking is that it comes across that you can only install a 32GB module. I know it sounds weird, but that's how I understood it. Thanks again!

    In Sweden you can get one 14x with a 13700h/rtx3050 for 2200(crazy)dollars. All laptops are much more expensive here in the Scandinavian/Nordic region. I just ordered a Lenovo Slim 7 pro with same specification (no oled) for 1300 dollars, of course much better deal. It was 20% sale during the weekend. I would like to have to rtx4050 but for my basic video editing with a 6gb 3050 plus a 13700h it will probably be more than enough for good export/rendering times.

      As a personal anecdote, I recently bought a zenbook pro 14 oled (4060 though) and heat doesn’t seem to be too much of an issue, especially on battery. It gets warm of course but it has never been uncomfortable for me. The fans rarely need to turn on for me.
      That said the battery life isn’t great (4-5 hours watching videos) if the brightness is too high, though I’m sure if I were to mess around with disabling cores and undervolting I could raise that quite a bit, and that would drop temps further. However that isn’t as easy as on some of Asus’s gaming laptops where that can be easily done in armory crate.

    Not so much appealing for creators.
    Only 16GB ram on Zenbook 14x that can be ok for personal use but not when u work professionally, and on PRO version maximum can be 48GB with additional investments.
    Battery life doesn't shine, so not much work can be done without a charger.
    In this price range, there other laptops that offer more for less.

      @@theTechNotice My bad =)
      It is 32GB and it is maximum for 14x version. So one can do large photo editing with this setup at home.
      But the pro version is maxed at 48GB, will it be enough for heavy video editing?

      ​​@@theTechNotice my ZenBook pro 14 OLED has 35w PL1 and 65w PL2 limit. It means it pulls only 50-60w on CPU and the Cinebench score is 13500-14000.
      I'm extremely disappointed and mad. I don't know why mine has such limits🙁😡.
