lightweight and very skeptical of the battery life BUT it lasted me 11 hours on 85% charge. i didn't use the laptop for 11 hours straight, probably 3-4 hours off and on (1-hour intervals of constant use) but coming back to the laptop while youtube live was playing on one of the tabs the whole time to 17% left was eye-opening for me. tested this two or three times so far and i'm just impressed. when i read about how well the 7840u was doing for other laptops i was trying to get the zenbook with that processor but couldn't find one and just jumped on this instead.
about 40% brightness, volume at 26%, turned off the touchscreen in device manager, used edge instead of firefox. i did quite a bit of tuning for the laptop using stuff like g-helper or amdapuutility and ctt utils so that's probably why i got a couple more hours but i'm glad i made this purchase.
i came from a 5-lb gaming laptop (2020 legion 5; i7) that even on battery saver mode would, at best, last me 3 hours.
my only grip with this is the OLED. honestly would not recommend people get oled laptops. save it for the tv. you really have to be at a certain angle to read so that's gonna suck if you're reading a lot of articles or documents. double sucks if you wear glasses too because so if you have specific reading glasses or if your glasses aren't properly aligned with your eyes (to my own fault), it just makes it that much harder. the screen is crispy and vivid but i'd still prefer an anti-glare, matte screen. still getting used to it...

I wonder if you put a matte screen protector on it what woukd it look like?
I have m1air but it's becoming slower with the new os. I like the Mac build quality but the RAM and Disk space they offer are too low for the price.
But this ASUS really looks interesting except for a couple standout limitations -- the 1200p display and 16GB RAM. Not sure I could go backwards, but the smaller, lighter size would be welcomed. As an IT tech, one of the big plusses on the P-series was the RJ45 ethernet jack so I don't have to mess with dongles, and this Asus is missing that, too.
Might try one out (our local BB has in stock and I have a bunch of BB rewards to help lower the price even more).

i order a t14s with the same processor and 57Wh battery but haven't opened it due to the amd version of this zenbook (8840hs; from my previous post) doing extremely well for my use cases so far.
