Asus ZenBook UX425 to feature AMD Ryzen 4000 Renoir and Intel Core i7-1065G7 processors in a 13.9 mm thin chassis paired with an impressive display

A footnote in a press release published last month, the ZenBook UX425 will feature up to AMD Ryzen 7 4700U and Intel Core i7-1065G7 processors in a 13.9 mm thin chassis. Paired with a 1 W FHD display capable of reaching 450 nits and a 90% screen-to-body ratio, the Renoir ZenBook UX425 sounds like an excellent ultrabook for 2020.

asus's um433iq triumphed over intel's version by a mile.
some irresponsible fans wish this time that in amd version they were not given the best options and amd lost the market and users to suffer. but I hope for the best.

I need exactly that with a 1660Ti or 5600M or 2060RTX
and 16Gb and 1Tb of SSD
I know about the G14 Zephyrus but the display is bad and it is expensive.

Doubt those specs will be any cheaper, maybe when they will be close to being replaced by mobile Ampere.  Shame eGPU didn't caught up.

The color fidelity of this screen is questionable, because the easiest way to increase efficiency is to mess with the color filter.

It is far from bad. The "terrible Ghosting" is just not noticable in daily use and the colors are just fine. You think this one has better response times? Good luck with that.

Hope they start using 16:10 / 3:2 screen soon, I'm never buying another  laptop with a 16:9 screen - even if it has AMD's amazing goodies.

I love the design and build of these. Unfortunately, until Asus stops dinking around with USB C compatibility, I will not be buying one. I had the 2019 model with an Intel 10th and I couldn't even use my USB C docking station with my external monitor, because they thought it was a brilliant idea to disable DP on the port....in an Ultrabook... Needless to say, that got returned quickly.

Oh and let's get one with a 4800u or 4900u. 4700u is great, and better than anything Intel offers, but go big or go home I say lol.

I have a 1300€ Asus Zenbook Flip (2 years old now) that went 4x to repair because I got constantly BSOD if I update anything on windows. If I use the very old drivers it doesn't happen so frequently, but Asus has no idea why and doesn't offer a solution, just say "stay with windows and Asus drivers from the release date". So, I buy a 1300€ PC to have it locked on 2018?! Also the USB C has no DP and doesn't charge. I also bought at the same time for the company, a 1600€ Asus ROG Desktop,  went 3x to repair (motherboard faulty, than RAM,  then the motherboard again) and I get... guess again,  BSOD but fortunately only 1x/ week. Both have only standard apps as office, Dropbox, photo and video editing apps installed.

In the contrary, my Surface Go 1 has absolutely no issues, charges also over the USB C and with a hub,  I output to monitors without issues.

Asus releases new models faster than I cut my nails, so they don't bet on quality and stability, they bet on releasing and selling.

Asus or Acer no more. Dell, Apple,  MS though, use to be good.

My new Dell (late 2019) has a couple driver issues, a serious one involving somehow blocking some system functions, almost behaving like a virus, as it resulted in an inability to enter settings, to use the search bar, even to shut down or restart. It somehow resolved itself after I unplugged the device and simply shut the lid for a while, which worked by finally turning off the device(I was prepared to let it run out of battery by looping a video, but decided to ask support before that and shut the lid) unlike trying to shut down via long pressing the power button, but I don't know if it could happen again some other time.
The only reason I know this is a driver issue is when I asked support about this the technician asked if I updated anything, to which I replied "there are no pending updates[in Dell's own SupportAssist(which regularly recommends that I update most drivers)]", and he replied "don't update" but refused to elaborate and said that I couldn't downgrade anything either.
Another software related issue is that the keyboard stopped functioning randomly but seemed to have self-resolved by completely turning off and on again(not restart), and a third would be a connection to a BT speaker that stops transmitting audio a short while after being established.
Alas, at least I got this device for cheap on extended support, this is the most buggy device I bought, ever.
