The review for this model: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Asu...664.0.html
"With its AMD Ryzen processor, the Zenbook 14 OLED is the better choice overall (and it's also cheaper than the Intel model)—even if you have to make do with its 16 GB RAM limit and 60 Hz OLED screen"

To sum it up, this AMD model has significantly better system and GPU performance and longer battery runtimes. However, the above statement and comparison was with the 2.8K 90Hz Intel model. The base model which is on sale and FP would either have similar battery times or maybe not as bad as its 2.8K variant.

This is a good model, but $799 is the regular price for this at Walmart. It has been very popular and out of stock for most of the past few months, so this post is a good heads up.

The AMD does have better battery life than the intel variant, but the CPU/GPU is not significantly better. I know notebook check used a number of benchmarks, but a number of youtube channels did a head to heads and found them to be comparable, with the intel arc being competitive with the 780m overall (i.e. hardware canucks, Andrew Marc David, Just Josh).

The core 7 with the same resolution is usually is $1050 and definitely not worth it over the AMD- but it's on sale for $749 at Best Buy right now if you prefer intel.

It's not a regular price, Walmart just didn't mention the original pricing of this device which is around $1199 according to Asus' official website. Other vendors have it for more than this.

It's 1920x1200, same as my 24" ProArt monitor. Perfectly fine in a 14" laptop but the 60Hz is kind of a bummer.

Just received the Intel version, considering returning it for this one. It's nice but AMD has been killing it lately. Also for some reason the Intel version doesn't have the ultra cool design on the top cover. It's just plain with the Asus logo.

Is Ryzen 7 current? What denotes the generation is that the "8" in 8840 ?

No, it's the second last digit in their numericlature, in this case the '4'.
This is a refresh of their last Gen chip just like how the Intel 14th Gen (not the Core Ultra series) is a refresh of their 13th Gen.

I think this is close to regular price as well according to PC Mag. It says MSRP $850. However, Asus has the MSRP at $1000. This was actually available for a few months ago but ran out of stock quickly. Good to see it's back.
