Unless otherwise stated, data read and write speeds are based on theoretical performance. Actual performance may vary in real-world situations. Asus offers the ZenBook Flip 13 UX363EA in a multitude of configurations, with various amounts of memory and storage, either Intel i5-1135G7 or Intel i7-1165G7 hardware platforms, and either an IPS or an optional OLED panel. There’s a 67 Wh battery inside the ZenBook UX363, larger than what you’d normally get in a 13-inch ultrabook. Undervolting is not an option for Tiger Lake with the latest variants of Throttlestop, so we could not tweak the settings in any way. Our review unit is a retail model, in one of the higher-end configurations available in stores here in Europe. It was provided by Asus for the purpose of this review, and down below I’ve gathered my thoughts and impressions after using it for about a week, with its particularities and its quirks. Specs as reviewed – ZenBook Flip 13 UX363EA
W (~7+ h of use) – text editing in Google Drive, Standard + Better Battery Mode, screen at 60%, Wi-Fi ON; Next, here are some benchmark results. We ran the entire suite of tests and benchmarks on the standard Performance profile. Here’s what we got. The maximum measured brightness is 302 nits (cd/m2) in the middle of the screen and 297 nits (cd/m2) average across the surface with a maximum deviation of 8%. The Correlated Color Temperature on a white screen and at maximum brightness is 7240K – colder than the 6500K temperature for sRGB. ZenBook Flip 13 is available with 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.As for that HD camera placed at the top of the screen, it’s fine for occasional calls, but not much in terms of quality. Battery life ASUS ZenBook Flip 13 UX363 has a Full HD IPS panel, Innolux N133HCE-EN2 (CMN1388). Its diagonal is 13.3-inch (33.78 cm), and the resolution – 1920 х 1080p. Additionally, the screen ratio is 16:9, the pixel density – 166 ppi, their pitch – 0.153 х 0.153 mm. The screen can be considered Retina when viewed from at least 53 cm (from this distance, the average human eye can’t see the individual pixels). set of I/O ports including USB-C ® Thunderbolt ™ 3, USB Type-A and HDMI from vendors including Acer, Apple, HP, Huawei, As of March 16, 2020 based on internal ASUS market analysis comparing ZenBook Flip 13 to competing convertible laptops with a screen measuring 13.3 inches and a set of I/O ports including USB-C ® Thunderbolt ™ 3, USB Type-A and HDMI from vendors including Acer, Apple, HP, Huawei, Dell, Lenovo, Microsoft and Samsung.
Product Specification ASUS ZenBook Flip 13 OLED UX363EA-HP768W, Intel® Core™ i7, 2.8 GHz, 33.8 cm (13.3"), 1920 x 1080 pixels, 16 GB, 1000 GB UX363EA-HP768W SpecificationsProduct Type Notebooks And then there’s the performance and thermal design. This laptop feels snappy and smooth with everyday use and multitasking while running mildly-warm, but completely silent, as the fan idles off and I haven’t’ noticed any electronic noises on this unit (no guarantee they won’t be there on yours, so make sure to listen for them). However, longer-duration demanding loads and games are a tough nut for this implementation, as the hardware is power-limited in comparison to other Tiger Lake models we’ve tested, and despite that, the laptop still ends up running hot and fairly noisy for a 2020 ultrabook. Still, we’ve included other color spaces like the famous DCI-P3 standard used by movie studios, as well as the digital UHD Rec.2020 standard. Rec.2020, however, is still a thing of the future and it’s difficult for today’s displays to cover that well. We’ve also included the so-called Michael Pointer gamut, or Pointer’s gamut, which represents the colors that naturally occur around us every day. At the same time, I feel that the i7/16 GB configuration is not worth the kind of 200-300 EUR/GBP extra that Asus charges for right now, given that you’ll end up with a limited i7 platform that’s not going to run any better than the i5 in daily use or in demanding loads. Hopefully, that will come down in price, as the i5 version only gets 8 GB of RAM and that might not suffice long term. Nothing short of the expectations – this notebook sports great visuals and a full-aluminum body. One of the most impressive stats regarding its construction is the profile – it stands at just 13.9mm. It is also pretty light, at 1.3 kg. Now, the laptop, itself seems rigid when it is closed, but we found that the base is a bit bendy, when you open it up.

W (~10+ h of use) – Netflix fullscreen in Edge, Whisper + Better Battery Mode, screen at 60%, Wi-Fi ON; I’ve added a couple of other configurations for comparison, all of them ultraportables, albeit not within the same price range.
As of March 16, 2020 based on internal ASUS market analysis comparing ZenBook Flip 13 OLED to competing convertible laptops with a screen measuring 13.3 inches and a set of I/O ports including USB-C ® Thunderbolt ™ 3, USB Type-A and HDMI from vendors including Acer, Apple, HP, Huawei, Dell, Lenovo, Microsoft and Samsung.These results are within 5-15% of the same Intel i7-1165G7 tested on the ZenBook UX393, which runs at higher-power. That’s actually surprising, as I was expecting poorer scores given the power difference between the two. On to more demanding tasks, we start by testing the CPU’s performance by running the Cinebench R15 benchmark for 15+ times in a loop, with 2-3 seconds delay between each run, on the Performance mode. Interestingly, the battery life is incredible. If you are only browsing the Web, you could get up to 21 hours and 15 minutes. However, watching videos will deplete the battery for 10 hours, which is a significantly lower amount of time, but still – a decent result.
