- Gets a bit hot and fan can get audible during stuff like games (I use an eGPU), but expected for an i7-13700h chip
- For my general use case the battery lasts ~6 hours watching a lot of videos at 80% brightness
- Commonly used ports like the charger and headphone jack are on the right hand side
- RAM is soldered, storage is replaceable
With all that being said and mostly known going into purchasing this on last sale - I think this laptop is excellent at this price point. The screen alone should be a huge factor as it is such an incredibly nice panel to watch media on on top of its <1ms response and 120hz refresh that should auto switches to 60hz on battery. Keyboard feels great and touch screen is pretty good to use with a stylus pen when the screen can open at the 180 degree mark so the whole laptop goes flat. Integrated graphics works decent for old or lightweight games. You get a hella strong CPU at this range as well. All in all I recommend finding a store that has it on display as the web page will tell you where in your area and you got the 14 day return window, too.
A) It has a slight grainy look due to the digitizer (touch) layer that is noticeable if you look for it on white and gray backgrounds. Normal use you probably wouldn't notice it.
B) Runs warm since it's a 13700h..
C) Battery life is around 6-10 hours depending on use maybe less.
D) Cinebench r23 multi 10min is around 11-13k plugged in.
E) Both USB-C ports are thunderbolt and can charge the computer.
F) League of Legends got around 110-130fps (set in game to 1080p I believe), and of course expect the fans to get loud though.
It's all around a GREAT laptop, but I'm on the fence about returning it due to the grainy effect alone. It's a known issue with OLED touch screens for Asus (at least that i know of).
I had tried the previous gen 1240p Zenbook 14x OLED non-touch and can confirm that it did not have the grainy look.
Most people don't seem to notice or have an issue with it otherwise it'd be mentioned more. However, it might also explain the amount of open boxes there were.
EDIT: Just want to add that this review of the 14x "Space Edition" mentions the graininess of the screen due to the digitizer:

EDIT#2 8/21/23: Regarding Warranty
After talking with two Best Buy reps on the phone and one ASUS rep here's what they told me:
A)
Best Buy by default gives a 1 year warranty to all open box items which covers everything the manufacturer warranty does.
If it does have an active manufacturer warranty, you'll have to go through the manufacturer first and if it "times" out first then Best Buy will cover it until the 1 year period.
Best buy reps then confirmed that they saw my open box Zenbook in the system being covered for 1 year by Best Buy.
B)
ASUS USA rep confirmed with me that any open-box ASUS laptop purchased from Best Buy only will have only a 90 day warranty from ASUS regardless of what date the MyAsus App tells you.
I would encourage anyone who's worried to double check their Best Buy warranty status with a CS agent and get a reference# or Case ID# in the event something happens.

But how exactly is this "the everyday deal now" when it was this price only once before?
I have noticed, though, that BB seems to have raised their open box prices a bit, though.

No i purchased a open box excellent last time for $528 for the same model. Bb did raise their open box prices though

Because the sale lasted like 2 weeks and it's not stock limited. So I would call this a regularly sale price. But it's surely a good deal. Calm down.

Nope. Exactly the same model

Does it come with Windows 11 home or pro? Tempted to pick this up to upgrade my laptop from 2018. I'm after the screen since it's a higher res for astrophotography in the field and playing Genshin Impact on the go.
