The innovative ASUS Dial allows precise fingertip control of creative parameters in Adobe® apps, while the new larger ASUS NumberPad features haptic feedback and enhanced pressure sensitivity for easier number entry. Zenbook Pro 16X OLED redefines what a creator laptop should be, and helps you take your creativity to the next level.
PERFORMANCE
Unrivaled performance
With the latest intel, NVDIA platform and the ultra-compact ASUS Supernova SoM Design enables the new 2023 Zenbook Pro 16X OLED to noticeably enhance the video-editing performance and 3D rendering capacity — drastically shortening processing time.
INNOVATION
ASUS Supernova SoM Design
ASUS Supernova System-on-Module (SoM) Design has a number of benefits, including a reduction of the motherboard core area by 38%, increasing the overall cooling efficiency of the system. This leaves extra room for the GPU power components, helping them to reach higher TGP values, giving users more stability and higher GPU performance. The design not only shortened the distance between CPU and memory but is integrated with premium low-power DRAM LPDDR5X and low-loss materials, bringing together high-bandwidth, low-latency memory into a single pool within a custom package.
CPU
Ultimate creative power
Empower your creativity with the latest 13th Gen Intel® Core™ i9-13905H processor. It has fourteen cores for effortless multitasking. Its 105 W maximum TDP gives you the edge when it comes to CPU-heavy tasks, so you’ll be able to spend less time waiting and more time creating.
LPDDR5X
High-bandwidth RAM supercharges creative apps
The ASUS Supernova SoM design utilizes low-loss substrate-like materials on the circuit board, and is integrated with LPDDR5X DRAM to enable memory frequency to run significantly higher. The design should also help to noticeably improve memory overclocking. This, in turn, will lead to better video performance and 3D rendering capacity. The high memory frequency signal of the LPDDR5X on our SoM design is also extremely efficient and ultra-stable as its attenuation of the SoM signal is 20% less than the standard.
GPU
Studio-grade graphics
A high-performance GPU is essential when it comes to graphics-intensive graphics tasks such as cinematic-quality 3D rendering and high-resolution video editing. The studio-grade GeForce RTX™ 4080 GPU in Zenbook Pro 16X OLED has enhanced latency, advanced AI-augmented video effects, and capabilities that help it export faster and blitz through the toughest visual tasks. And for peace of mind, the best compatibility, performance and stability are assured by the NVIDIA Studio Driver.
AAS Ultra
Elevate your experience
The precision-engineered AAS Ultra mechanism raises the rear of the keyboard by up to 14.5 mm, tilting it by 7° when Zenbook Pro 16X OLED is opened. This positions it at the perfect angle for comfortable typing. It also enhances cooling by allowing 30% more airflow. This in turn reduces the laptop’s surface temperature by up to 7°C8, increasing both comfort and CPU performance. And finally, the tilting mechanism directs the sound from the dual tweeters to create a better stereo image for enhanced listening pleasure.
THERMAL TECHNOLOGY
Stay cool with AAS Ultra and IceCool Pro
Zenbook Pro 16X OLED uses high-performance components that need to be cooled effectively in order to reach their full potential. This starts with the ASUS IceCool Pro cooling system, which uses two quiet IceBlades fans, each with 97 3D-curved blades. These cool the 3D vapor chamber and the aerospace-grade 5 mm heat pipe from the CPU and GPU, and the hot air is vented efficiently to the exterior via the new AAS Ultra mechanism with its 14.5 mm keyboard lift. The result is that the CPU and GPU can run at up to a 185 W combined TDP.
INTELLIGENT LIGHTING
Shine smartly
Zenbook Pro 16X OLED adds a whole new dimension to your creative experience with its intelligent lighting system. As well as an illuminated monogram lid logo, there’s per-key White RGB keyboard backlighting, augmented by light bars on either side of the keyboard. This system enables a variety of smart interactive effects. When you power the laptop on or off, or switch performance modes, your laptop can display an exclusive light effect. If your battery’s low on juice, all the lights will glow red. Plug in a USB device to see yet another light effect, and when you receive a new email you’ll get a handy visual reminder. You can also configure a variety of animated ambient lighting modes to match your mood or the atmosphere of the room.

DISPLAY
World-leading 16:10 16” 3.2K 120Hz OLED HDR display
For ultimate visual experience, Zenbook Pro 16X OLED features the a world-leading 16:10 3.2K 120Hz OLED HDR NanoEdge touchscreen1,9 with stylus support. With an expansive 16:10 aspect ratio, the display is Dolby Vision certified and PANTONE Validated to ensure accurate color rendering. With 550 nits peak brightness, it’s also VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 500 certified for the deepest blacks to give you ultra-realistic detail in even the darkest scenes. Its cinema-grade DCI-P3 color gamut delivers ultra-vivid colors, and the 120 Hz refresh rate and 0.2 ms response time make even the fastest action scenes look super-smooth. To keep your eyes comfortable and safe during the longest viewing sessions, it’s also TÜV Rheinland certified for low blue-light emissions.
World-leading motion clarity with up to 120 Hz
Premium ASUS OLED displays with 120 Hz refresh rate and 0.2 ms pixel response time are incredibly smooth and clear. In fact, the 120 Hz / 0.2 ms OLED display is faster than a 165 Hz / 3 ms LCD IPS display — because it reduces ghosting to an indiscernible level. Simply put, this means even fast-moving visuals are smoother and clearer than ever.
ASUS Splendid, Customizable color gamut for every need
With integrated ASUS Splendid software, the color gamut can be quickly and easily switched to suit various tasks or preferences. Choose between the ultravivid native color setting, sRGB for web content or browsing, DCI-P3 for cinema content, or Display P3 for extraordinary real-world color.
Ultra-durable touchscreen with Corning® Gorilla® Glass
Corning® Gorilla® Glass NBT™ is strictly tested12 and is proven to be more durable than ever. The retained strength and scratch resistance of the glass surface are significantly superior to traditional soda-lime glass, so it’s more resistant to swipes, taps and stylus use.
