Overview
- Reviews published Tuesday say the ZenBook A16 with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X2 feels much faster than last year’s Snapdragon X1 models.
- The 16‑inch laptop posts long runtimes, with Engadget measuring about 21 hours and 35 minutes in a video rundown test.
- The hardware package includes up to 48GB of memory, a 1TB SSD, a 16‑inch 3K OLED at 120Hz, and ports like SD, HDMI, USB‑C, USB‑A, and a headphone jack in a 2.6–2.9‑pound chassis.
- Game support on Windows‑on‑Arm has improved, but some titles still fail due to anti‑cheat systems, with Fortnite running and Arc Raiders not loading in testing.
- US pricing and availability vary by outlet, with Best Buy listing some configurations near $1,600 while another report cites a $1,999.99 starting price.
