Preface | In the era of mobile office, there is a need for a flagship performance thin and light The originally menacing epidemic has affected the normal work of too many people. Like most white-collar workers, I am constantly affected and need to work from home. After going to work, the business is busier, and it is necessary to shuttle between various office buildings and participate in various meetings. Therefore, you need to start with a thin and light notebook. As an old user of ASUS, this ASUS high-end series Zenbook X Lingfeng has become a more suitable choice. The business appearance design can have good performance in terms of weight, battery life and performance; Intel i7 processor, super performance is enough to cope with daily office use, the current purchase price of JD.com is very powerful, the lowest is only 5699, if you are thinking of buying a high-end business thin and light notebook, it is highly recommended that you understand, the following is my experience, I hope I can give you some reference.
Appearance | Strong business atmosphere, less than 1kg of weight performance is eye-catching, in fact, appearance and weight are the first elements of my choice of notebook this time. The appearance should have a business atmosphere, because I use it for work and need to carry it often to meetings; Thinness and lightness are very important, and in the current working state, you must carry a notebook on your back every day to and from work.
Zenbook X Lingfeng is very much in line with my requirements for a notebook. On the exterior, the color of pine wood blue is low-key and atmospheric, the silhouette is angular, and there is no other logo on the A side except for the ASUS logo, which is full of business style. It is made of all-metal material with a matte texture, which has an excellent feel and is relatively wear-resistant and does not stick to fingerprints.
The thickness of 13.9mm is very thin with the finely cut sides. In terms of weight, the Lingyao X Lingfeng is about 995g (in fact, the bare-metal weighing is only about 950g), which is very advantageous in a business notebook with a similar configuration. It can be easily picked up with one hand and has no weight at all when placed in a bag.
Because it is for office use, my interface requirements must meet daily needs. On the right side, you can see the USB-A (USB 3.2 Gen 1 standard) interface, 3.5mm audio interface, and MicroSD card slot.
On the left, there is an HDMI 2.0 interface + dual Thunderbolt 4 interface. The standard HDMI interface is more convenient for daily meetings; The Thunderbolt 4 interface can not only meet daily charging, reverse charging and various expansion functions, but also support 8K screen external connection to achieve large screen expansion and improve work efficiency.
The back is designed with large heat dissipation holes, as well as bilateral speakers; There is a detail here, the audio of Zenbook X Lingfeng has been certified by Harman Kardon, and the sound quality is excellent; When actually used, playing music or watching movies, you can feel the excellent surround sound effect, which is worthy of recognition. At the same time, there are multiple built-in matrix microphones and AI noise-canceling speakers, which can allow both parties to have an excellent sound quality experience during meetings.
The cover can be easily opened with one finger, and the details are full.
When you open the upper cover, you can see that the bezels are very narrow and the field of view is wider. The uniquely designed Ergolift hinge allows the keyboard to form a 3° angle between the keyboard and the desktop, effectively enhancing heat dissipation and sound quality.
There are also large cooling holes at the top of the keyboard, which can ensure that large software stays cool when running for a long time.
Full-size keyboard with 1.4mm key travel; The biggest advantage of this long-key keyboard is that the finger feedback is softer, typing is not tiring, and it is more suitable for long-term typing.
The screen of Zenbook X Lingfeng is also a major feature. Several key indicators: 92% screen-to-body ratio, 100% sRGB high color gamut, DC dimming can effectively avoid strobe, TÜV Rheinland low blue light certification, 400nits brightness, LTPS low power consumption. When actually experienced, you can see that the color and brightness are outstanding, and it also has excellent performance in well-lit scenes, easily meeting the needs of various environments. The eye-protecting characteristics allow this notebook to be used with confidence. Let's talk about a few small details of Zenbook X Lingfeng:
The keyboard is designed with a background light, which supports 3 levels of backlight adjustment, which is a necessary element for office.
The trackpad supports a digital cursor, which is great for office workers! That is, it saves the size of the fuselage, and at the same time meets the needs of the daily quick use of the calculator, killing two birds with one stone. Moreover, the trackpad can be used at the same time.
One last small detail, because we often work from home, video conferencing has become a meeting tool many times. Zenbook X Lingfeng not only has clear camera quality, but also supports 3D TRN video noise reduction, and can also have excellent video effects in low light. In addition, it also supports Windows Hello face recognition login, and the hardware supports IR infrared face recognition, which can also be used at night.
Overall, I think that Zenbook X Lingfeng is designed around business office workers in terms of appearance and hardware design, which is worthy of recognition.
Use | Performance is enough for office use, portability + long battery life becomes a real office tool Because it is positioned for business office use, it is not stacked hardware like some gaming laptops and design laptops. However, it still has excellent performance and is enough to ensure daily use.
Zenbook X Lingfeng uses the Intel Core i7 processor 1165G7, which is a 10nm processor used in many mainstream notebooks. In terms of other hardware, 16GB dual-channel memory (LPDDR4X, frequency reaches 4267MHz), Intel Iris Xe integrated display,Hynix512GB SSD; WiFi 6 support for high-speed internet. The battery capacity reaches 63Wh, supports PD fast charging up to 65W, and you can share the charger with mainstream mobile phones when you go out, and of course, you can also use mainstream power banks to replenish power.
With such a hardware configuration, Master Lu's running score can reach 840,000 points, and it is very easy to run all kinds of large software.
I tested the CPU with CINEBENCH and scored 1752.
The read and write speeds of the SSD are good, reaching 3530MB/s read and 2939MB/s write. Finally, let me share how I used it during this time:
(1) With Zenbook X Lingfeng, I can finally achieve truly easy mobile work.
With a weight of less than 1kg, there is no pressure to hold it with one hand; The weight is even much lower than the iPad Pro+ Magic Keyboard (about 1.4kg). So even if you are running around for a day, it is effortless.
(2) The ultra-long battery life is 18 hours, and there is enough power to deal with charging problems.
With a low-power screen and a large-capacity battery, you no longer need to worry about running out of power when participating in meetings every day.
Measured at 50% brightness, browsing the web for 30 minutes consumes about 5% of the power, and can be used for 18 hours; With 65W PD fast charging, you can charge about 36% of the battery in 30 minutes, which is very fast. Participating in a meeting inevitably requires modifying the PPT before the meeting, and you may need to use OUTLOOK to record the meeting content directly during the meeting, and send it immediately after the meeting. The Zenbook X Lingfeng keyboard not only feels good, but is also silent, making it very suitable for meetings. The trackpad is very sensitive and can be used separately from the mouse every day, and it can also be called up in real time to get twice the result with half the effort.
(3) The performance is strong enough, supporting the powerful ASUS flash transmission, editing data anytime and anywhere The most used software on a daily basis, including PS/LR/PR and other picture and video editing software.
Objectively speaking, the Intel i7-1165G7 processor plus the Ristor Xe graphics card comparable to many entry-level independent graphics cards can easily run these large software; Even the rendering time of the video is good, and there is no problem at all when used for office work. The display effect of this screen is also worthy of recognition, and the colors of daily retouching are accurate. Moreover, Zenbook X Lingfeng also supports MyASUS, powerful ASUS flash transmission support and file transfer between mobile phones, remote file access, etc., making office capabilities more powerful.
Summary | The go-to notebook for mobile work!
Overall, ASUS Zenbook X Lingfeng is a productivity tool that focuses on high-end experience, which meets all the needs of thin, light and portable, business office, and daily leisure compared to similar products, and the appearance and texture of the machine is also quite good.
