Your flagship business laptop may be powerful — but is it also durable and secure?

Meet the new ASUS ExpertBook P5, the headliner of ASUS’ latest productivity lineup. Designed for today’s business professionals, this machine redefines what it means to be a true flagship for work.

Tough enough for business

While most laptops in this segment deliver expected performance and AI computing power, ASUS goes a step further with enterprise-level security and military-grade durability.

The ExpertBook P5 complies with US Military Grade Standards and has passed more than 20 rigorous tests, proving just how tough it really is.

ASUS didn’t stop there — the brand subjected its new laptops to even more punishing trials:

  • The display was held from its tip — no cracks, no breaks.
  • Metal-reinforced ports were pushed to the limit.
  • The laptop has even been stood on and kept going.
  • Its spill-resistant keyboard survived splashes and stayed functional.

Accidents happen, but with the ExpertBook P5, you know your laptop is built to take a beating.

If you work under pressure, your laptop should too.

It features a BIOS that meets top-tier security standards, and with Windows 11 out of the box, it’s fortified against both firmware attacks and software threats.

This power is paired with impressive energy efficiency and long battery life, ensuring you stay productive longer.

Connectivity is equally future-ready — the ExpertBook P5 is Wi-Fi 7 compatible, providing faster and smoother wireless performance wherever you go.

Designed for professionals

The chassis has been thoughtfully designed for flexibility and longevity. Users can expand memory and storage over time, and the improved ExpertCool system ensures better airflow and cooling during long hours of work.

Up front, you get an anti-glare display with up to 2.5K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate — perfect for clear visuals during meetings or even the occasional gaming session.

All the essential ports and connectors are neatly arranged around the edges, offering full support for your peripherals and accessories.

Despite all that, the ExpertBook P5 remains sleek and lightweight, thanks to its aluminum body — an ideal travel companion for business trips.

Smarter meetings with AI

When it comes to AI, the P5 truly lives up to its “all-in-one” business promise.

It comes equipped with ExpertMeet, ASUS’ suite of AI-powered collaboration tools designed to elevate your meetings.
