The new ASUS Zenbook 17 Fold OLED offers a large foldable screen in an ultra-portable design.

Thanks to its large OLED screen and extraordinary thinness, this device was chosen as one of the best inventions of 2022 by the renowned TIME magazine.

Aesthetics, design, efficiency, style. More and more trends and consumer demands determine the decision to buy a computer. From devices that are easy to transport and light in weight, to devices that, despite their size, do not lose performance and capacity, without forgetting the pursuit of innovative and differentiated equipment.

On the other hand, one thing that has a deeper meaning to a laptop is the screen size, whether it’s viewing two spreadsheets at the same time, viewing a PDF of a project summary and working on them without having to constantly switch from one window to another or look at movies on a screen big enough to really enjoy them, instead of squinting to read the subtitles and see the details.

With all of the above and more in mind, ASUS is bringing the first 17-inch ASUS Zenbook 17 Fold OLED foldable laptop to the Colombian market., where users can find the best of both worlds in the portable vs. large screen debate, and there’s no need to have a tablet and laptop at the same time when both can live in the same device! Thus, ASUS Zenbool 17 Fold OLED becomes the most versatile device at the moment.

1. One device, many uses

When fully open, it can be used as a large tablet. Perfect for watching movies on the couch, watching the news, dynamically presenting content, or just sharing with friends. It has a leather stand on the back, which allows you to use this device as a desktop computer. Plus, it comes with an ASUS ErgoSense Bluetooth keyboard that makes it easy to work at your desk on the big screen.

Its various forms of use allow you to carry it away from home or work out of the office thanks to its portable mode. This mode allows you to fold the device into a 12.5-inch laptop using only half of the screen space and place the keyboard in the bottom half of the screen, or see both halves of the screen folded when using the keyboard separately (this is called Extended Mode).

Finally, perhaps the most unique way to use the device is reading mode. Folding the device slightly and holding it horizontally gives you an experience similar to reading a book.

2. Lightweight performance

How fast is this car? The Zenbook 17 fold OLED is equipped with some of the best components you can have in a laptop. A powerful 12th Gen Intel Core i7 processor and 16GB of RAM provide excellent multitasking capabilities. It has 1TB of SSD storage so you can be sure of quick access to the thousands of large files you want to save, whether they’re movies, design files or work documents.

A large 75 Wh battery allows you to work all day without recharging (9.5 hours in laptop mode, 8.5 hours in desktop mode). It also comes with all the benefits of a fast internet connection thanks to Intel’s tri-band Wi-Fi 6E connection. Connecting wireless devices will also give you a smooth and uninterrupted experience (as long as your devices can keep in touch) thanks to Bluetooth 5.2 technology.

3. Universal working tool

The unique form factor and versatility of modes of use make this a great companion for all time. When folded, the device is about the size of a 12.5-inch laptop, smaller than an A4 sheet of paper. At 17.4mm thick, it fits comfortably in most backpacks and bags. It weighs only 1.5 kg without the keyboard (and 0.3 kg more with the keyboard), which helps to avoid back pain during transportation.

Six modes of use allow you to work comfortably from anywhere. Open it on your lap while waiting to board at the airport, use it handheld to watch movies while flying, and set it to desktop mode when it finally hits your desk at home, drawing attention with its gorgeous design.

4. Bright screen with high resolution

In addition to being an incredible travel and work companion, it can be used for education, where users can appreciate the impressive OLED screen while watching movies. At a resolution of 2560 x 1920, it shows the smallest details on the screen of a mobile device.

Thanks to the characteristics of OLED technology, it offers brighter colors, blacks appear completely black, and exceptional brightness. In OLED panels, each pixel is a separate light source, unlike a standard backlit LCD screen. This means that when certain parts of the screen are responsible for displaying black, the pixels simply turn off, showing a real lack of light, and not just a partial reduction in the amount of it.

In addition, the device is equipped with four speakers certified by Harman Kardon, which also provide incredible sound quality. Combined with the quiet operation of the Whisper fan, the user can enjoy clear, crisp and immersive sound even without headphones.

5. Demonstration of durability

Let’s talk about its durability, thanks to the use of an OLED screen, it allows this device to be folded thanks to a technology that uses plastic instead of glass, which means that the screen can be flexible.

In addition, ASUS has subjected its innovative 180-degree hinge to various tests, which have allowed this equipment to withstand at least 30,000 opening and closing cycles. The ZenBook 17 FOLD OLED is also US Military-Grade Durability certified, so users can rest assured they have a durable device.

The Zenbook 17 Fold OLED is available in Colombia now at https://www.asus.com/co/ and also on networks such as Alkosto, in the store on Calle 68 and on its website.
