Review on ZenBook NanoEdge I7 9750H Innovative Screenpad by Adam Chyliski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I expected mediocre quality, but the product was pleasantly surprised.

Complete set (since it is not in the product description and booklets for the product): laptop, AC adapter, power cord, stylus, folding laptop stand, wrist rest, backpack, warranty and useless booklets, one of which contains instructions: plug the adapter into the network , connect to a laptop, press the laptop's power button - and that's it! brilliant. On the first day, I checked everything, installed and launched Blender to test the work with 3D graphics, it pulls well. Rendering on the GPU is pretty fast. It heats up quite strongly when working with 3D with a dense mesh of the model. Don't put it on your knees. Noisy, but the hardware is appropriate, when the video card is loaded, the fan blows out thoroughly. Despite the visible grid in bright colors, you can work, the drawback is moderate. Tolerable, but working on a Korean stationary 24-inch 4K IPS monitor for 25 thousand is more pleasant for me personally, even though the pixels on it are slightly larger for such an area and not so rich colors, but I don’t see the grid. I came across a model with defects: the left speaker rattles, especially when playing system sounds, and the stylus turned out to have a loose tip. I am making a return. For such money and in such premium packaging, there is equipment that has not been fully tested for quality control. Sadness, ASUS! : Returned to the Market. I ordered again, but already in a well-known electronics retail chain with 32 GB of RAM. I came to pick it up - they said that only laptops from the showcase remained from such a line, plus a couple in a warehouse in Hong Kong. We decided to check it on the spot: the tip dangles, but less, the sound also wheezes and rattles like the cheapest laptop. In short, this is either a mass marriage or a systemic problem. In addition, when I clicked on the icon in the taskbar with my finger, the laptop showed a blue screen with a reboot. I did not take it, there will be no third attempt.

Pros
  • Powerful, beautiful, good video card, the processor is quite suitable. Touch screen, second display. The main one is OLED with HDR support, the ScreenPad Plus screen is IPS. A touchpad with touch buttons to emulate a numpad is a good solution to an age-old problem, but located on the right, it may not be suitable for left-handers as a touchpad.
Cons
  • 1. The OLED touch screen has a small design flaw, as I understand it, in the entire Zenbook Pro Duo line, but as I read, other manufacturers also have this: its pixel structure does not give much, but a noticeable grid texture in bright colors, which me , as a person working with graphics, is somewhat annoying. This is not a defect, but the norm, it turned out. 2. Heavy AC adapter, no charging via Thunderbolt. 3. Very strange for these pieces of iron, but it lags when playing HDR videos from Youtube, even when HDR is turned off and the ScreenPad is turned off, and it's not even 4K. 4. There is no booklet with the bundle in the kit (apparently the buyer is invited to look for it in the reviews), as a result, the bundle turned out to be some kind of Asus backpack, and not a case, which I expected to receive after looking at the reviews. 5. I came across a defective stylus, so I can’t express a correct opinion, but I feel that this is far from the best stylus, for such a line it would be possible to choose a more ergonomic model. 6. ASUS software for working with the touch panel is damp.
