ASUS keeps coming at us with brand spanking new laptops! Adding to the list is the ASUS ZenBook Pro 15 UX535.

What are you getting? Oh, I don’t know, just a NanoEdge 4K UHD OLED touchscreen with a wide 100% DCI-P3 color gamut ensures vivid hues, and an 88% screen-to-body ratio.

Inside it’s powered by the 10th Generation Intel Core i7 and i5 H-series CPUs with 45W, 16GB of RAM and up to an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Ti discrete GPU. It also comes with up to a 1 TB PCIe 3.0 x4 SDD for ultrafast storage.

How is it built for on-the-go? ASUS says these features contribute to that: a high-capacity 96 Wh battery and comprehensive set of I/O ports, including Thunderbolt 3 USB-C, USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, standard HDMI, an audio jack, and an SD card reader.

It also has the company’s signature ErgoLift for a comfortable typing position. Additionally, there’s an IR camera for hands-free face login with Windows Hello. WiFi 6 (802.11ax).

All these contribute to a workhorse of a machine with a large screen that shouldn’t be a chore to carry around – that is if you absolutely have to step out for work.

The ASUS ZenBook Pro 15 UX535 will be available in Q4 2020, with pricing yet to be announced.

Are you ready for a more colorful MacBook?

Apple is experimenting with quirkier colorway options for the MacBook.

Published

on

In recent years, Apple has relented on limiting the colors of its devices to only the more premium-looking options. Users can now pick quirkier colors for their iPhones, highlighted currently by the Cosmic Orange iPhone 17 Pro Max. Soon, the same splashes of color might make its way to the MacBook lineup.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple has been testing different colorway options for its upcoming entry-level MacBook. The unannounced lineup might come in pink, light yellow, light green, and blue.

It’s a big change for MacBooks. Currently, the only “quirky” option that users can get is the MacBook Air’s Sky Blue, which honestly looks more silvery than blue. Other than that, the MacBook simply seesaws from different shades of gold, silver, and black.

To be fair, the upcoming MacBook will still have the traditional colorways of the current lineup. Additionally, it’s unclear whether Apple will ultimately include all its experimental colors into the final lineup.

Reportedly, the new lineup will cost somewhere between US$ 699 to US$ 799. Of course, the lower price tag will come at the expense of some specs. Although, it should still be good if we’re talking about an entry-level laptop.

It’s even more interesting if it’s hinting at the return of truly colorful options but for the notebook. The iMac already got a similar renaissance back in 2024, which mimics the classic computer’s colorful history.
