World's thinnest OLED convertible laptop

ZenBook Flip S is effortlessly portable and endlessly versatile, thanks to a sleek and compact design that's just 1.2 kg light and an incredible 13.9 mm thin — making it the world's thinnest OLED convertible laptop.

The brilliant up to 4K UHD OLED NanoEdge touchscreen delivers exceptionally detailed and realistic visuals. This bright, clear 500-nit display also has a superb 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio for deep blacks with DisplayHDR 500 True Black certification, wide 178° viewing angles for easy collaboration, and a wide 100% DCI-P3 color gamut for cinema-grade colors, making it an ideal laptop for creative projects. The 0.2 ms ultrafast response time also ensures blur-free action content and smooth scrolling.

Color accuracy is usually represented by a 2D color-gamut diagram that shows how colors are faithfully reproduced, but only at a particular brightness level. However, since the ability to reproduce colors accurately at different levels of brightness is crucial, Asus OLED panels are calibrated to accurately reproduce colors in a 3D color volume — showing what the panel would reproduce at 100% DCI-P3 color gamut regardless of brightness level. This ensures all content is displayed accurately and as intended by its creators, not just at full brightness but at any brightness setting. This is especially important for HDR content. As a result, our OLED touchscreen color volume is up to 1.6X greater than a traditional LCD.

With the extreme contrast and accurate color reproduction at any level, everything looks crisp and vibrant – even within darker content. This helps with eye comfort, too: users can dial down the brightness, without losing contrast and color vibrancy, resulting in reduced blue-light emission. Plus, ZenBook Flip S OLED display also manages the blue-light ratio to reduce potentially-harmful emissions by up to 70 per cent, with certification from TÜV Rheinland for low blue light and flicker-free visuals – promising greater care for the user's eyes, ever after many hours of use. With full support for the optional 4096 pressure-level Asus Pen active stylus and Windows Ink, ZenBook Flip S is the perfect take-anywhere laptop for on-the-go productivity and creativity.

The art of perfection

The distinctive ZenBook Flip S is supremely elegant, with prestigious Red Copper diamond-cut highlights that perfectly complement its timeless Jade Black finish. A brushed-aluminum deco bar above the keyboard adds a subtle finishing touch, creating a luxurious overall look that stands out from the crowd without being extravagant.

The precision-engineered 360° ErgoLift hinge has a durable metal multi-gear mechanism that lifts and tilts the keyboard for more comfortable typing and improved cooling airflow when the laptop is opened beyond 135°. In tablet mode, the mechanism automatically rotates out of the way to allow the display to fold flat against the base. This stepless hinge allows the versatile ZenBook Flip S to be used in laptop mode, stand mode, tent mode or tablet mode — or anything in between.

ZenBook Flip S includes the innovative Asus NumberPad 2.0, a dual-function touchpad with an integrated LED-illuminated numeric keypad. Even when NumberPad is activated, the touchpad can be used for cursor control thanks to its intelligent software. ZenBook Flip S also introduces a new edge-to-edge keyboard design that makes space for a whole row of convenient extra function keys on the right side of the layout, improving productivity.
