Design

Ultra-thin and light

ZenBook Flip S is a timelessly elegant masterpiece, exquisitely crafted from solid aluminum. The chassis is forged from a single block of metal thats carefully honed until it's a mere 10.9mm thin. Weighing just 1.1kg, its effortlessly portable. And because its made from premium, aerospace-grade aluminum, its lighter than standard laptop alloy but 50% stronger.

• 10.9mm ultra-thin
• 1.1kg ultra-light

Stronger by design: aerospace-grade alloy

To achieve amazing lightness without compromising structural strength, ZenBook Flip S is precision-crafted from 6013 aluminum alloy, a premium material commonly specified for automotive and aerospace applications. As well as being 50% stronger than the 6063 alloy used in many standard laptops, this material is also supremely elegant when adorned with the signature ZenBook spun-metal finish*.

Unrivaled mobility

ZenBook has always been the benchmark for thin-and-light design, and with ZenBook Flip S weve taken it to a whole new level. It's not only the thinnest laptop weve ever created its profile measures just 10.9mm but weve also reduced the weight to a mere 1.1kg to make it the perfect take-anywhere companion. To keep the display light and ultra-slim, yet tough, its covered with super-strong Corning Gorilla Glass, which is 10x more resistant to drop-damage than standard glass.

Design

Crafted to perfection

Designing ZenBook Flip S required serious engineering prowess and craftsmanship. The ultra-thin profile meant we had to invent the ErgoLift hinge the worlds most compact flippable hinge to preserve its sleek lines. To accommodate the full-size keyboard, we had to create an ultra-slim surround. To add a touch of luxury, we added brilliant diamond-cut highlights to the edges. ZenBook Flip S is renowned for its unique, stunning looks. Youll instantly recognize the iconic, Zen-inspired spun-metal finish* on the all-metal unibody enclosure a finish that takes 40 painstaking steps to create.

Pioneering technology,world-renowned design

ZenBook Flip S continues the world-renowned design heritage of the ZenBook Series, with an elegant all-metal unibody. The unique and iconic Zen-inspired spun-metal finish is now even more beautiful, the result of an enhanced 40-step sanding and polishing process. Diamond-cut edges accentuate the slim design, and on the Royal Blue model stunning golden accents are added using a dual-phase anodizing process.

The coolest of cool

The challenge in creating an ultra-fast, ultra-thin laptop boils down to basic physics. To prevent the laptop enclosure from getting too hot, warm air inside needs to be expelled as quickly as possible. To solve this problem, ASUS engineers had to invent a brand-new cooling system using state-of-the-art components such as a liquid-crystal-polymer fan impeller thats just 0.3mm thin. This innovative cooling system also incorporates a vapor chamber that can spread heat in two dimensions and improve all-round heat dissipation by up to 50%.
