Tested! Asus ZenBook Flip 14 UM462 Laptop Review - A Convertible Version of the Asus ZenBook 14

Here is our Asus ZenBook Flip 14 UM462 Review, not to be confused with the Asus Zenbook Flip S. Launched along with the ZenBook 14 (UM431) in November last year, the ZenBook Flip 14 (UM462) is essentially a hybrid equivalent of the Asus Zenbook 14 with an optional processor upgrade. In place of the Asus ZenBook 14’s AMD Ryzen 5 3500U, you can have the AMD Ryzen 7 3700U chip with up to 4.0GHz of boosted clock speed while retaining the same four-core eight-thread setup. In India, the Asus ZenBook Flip 14 starts at Rs 64,990, which means it competes directly with the Lenovo IdeaPad C340. Performance of the Asus ZenBook Flip 14 UM462 Our review unit of the ZenBook Flip 14 gained average scores on our synthetic benchmark tests. On PCMark 8’s Accelerated Creative test, the review unit bagged 3350 points, which is, quite interestingly, a few hundred points below the Lenovo IdeaPad C340’s score. Just so you know, the IdeaPad C340 we tested employed an Intel 8th Gen Core i5 CPU and an Nvidia GeForce MX230 GPU along with 8GB of RAM and a 512GB PCIe NVMe solid-state drive. On 3DMark’s Fire Strike and Cloud Gate, the ZenBook Flip 14 managed 2340 and 13114 points, respectively. The latter score is actually significantly better than the score managed by the IdeaPad C340, which in fact sports a dedicated graphics card. The Ryzen-5 powered ZenBook 14 UM431 fared extremely well on our everyday performance tests and the Ryzen 7-powered ZenBook Flip 14 is no different. Our review unit handled multitasking on numerous applications across many virtual desktops without any signs of lag or stuttering. Everyday apps such as Outlook, Word, Excel, Chrome, Photos, OneNote, File Explorer, and WhatsApp for PC opened and restored without any hiccups during the course of a regular workday. In addition, I didn’t observe a single stutter in the animation while switching windows or desktops. Playing background music and videos on various websites too, happened without any hiccups. In summary, the Asus ZenBook Flip 14 is a fine machine for everyday computing tasks. BOTTOM LINE The Asus ZenBook Flip 14 is great at being a conventional laptop in that it packs a modern AMD processor with 8GB of RAM and ample solid-state storage. What’s more, it has a great keyboard and touchpad setup along with a bright and colourful screen. But it fails at being a great tablet by a considerable margin. And that’s because it’s got a disappointingly short battery life and a hefty frame. In addition, its bundled stylus could do with better on-screen response for drawing and on-board storage space. Even if the Asus ZenBook Flip 14 doesn’t outperform the Lenovo IdeaPad C340, it doesn’t fall below it. With no discrete graphics option and a slightly heavy price tag of Rs 64,990, the ZenBook Flip 14 can be viewed as an AMD -powered alternative to the Intel-powered IdeaPad C340. The ZenBook Flip 14 is a fine device for users who primarily want a conventional laptop but also want to get their feet wet in convertible computing.
