Is it Worth it?
The ASUS ZenBook Flip 13 UX363 is a solid convertible laptop with a stunning OLED screen. While it's identical to the ZenBook Flip S UX371 in terms of design and build quality, the UX363 offers improved battery life, lasting throughout the day on a single charge. The Core i5 model is the more affordable option at $4699, making it a worthwhile choice for those who don't need excessive power. Overall, the ZenBook Flip 13 UX363 is a great ultrabook with impressive display and battery performance, making it worth considering for those in the market for a reliable convertible laptop.
Build
The ASUS ZenBook Flip 13 UX363 boasts an identical design to its predecessor, the UX371, with the same shape, size, materials, and build quality. However, it features a more common silver-ish ASUS logo and trim around the laptop, whereas the UX371 has a golden-colored logo and trim. The lid still sports concentric circles around the logo, which can catch smudges easily. Despite its sturdy hinge, the laptop's design may feel identical to those who have previously owned a ZenBook Flip. Overall, the build quality is solid, although some minor differences set it apart from its predecessor. Take a look at Asus ASUS ExpertBook B5 Flip - its improved build sets a new standard.
Display
The ASUS ZenBook Flip 13 UX363 boasts a stunning 13.3-inch 1080p OLED screen, delivering vibrant colors and exceptional brightness. While the resolution is lower than its predecessor, the UX371, it still offers impressive picture quality, making it ideal for watching Netflix shows or browsing through your favorite websites. The glossy glass screen adds to the overall visual experience, although it may show fingerprints and smudges. Overall, the display on the ZenBook Flip 13 UX363 is a highlight of this laptop, providing an engaging viewing experience that's hard to match in its class. If you're after top-notch display, consider Asus ASUS ExpertBook B5 Flip.
Performance
The ASUS ZenBook Flip 13 UX363 boasts a powerful Core i7 1165G7 processor, paired with 8GB of RAM and 512GB SSD. While the performance is impressive, it's not drastically different from its predecessor, the ZenBook Flip S UX371. The laptop handles everyday tasks efficiently, but gamers may find it lacking in power. However, for general use, such as word processing, web browsing, and streaming, the UX363 delivers smooth performance. I recommend opting for the Core i5 model, which is significantly cheaper at 4699 Ringgit, offering similar capabilities to the i7 variant without breaking the bank. It’s worth checking out Asus ASUS ProArt PZ13, delivering remarkable performance.
Battery and Charging
The ASUS ZenBook Flip 13 UX363 boasts impressive battery life, lasting through the day with a single charge. I witnessed a 10% drain after watching Netflix for 1.5 hours at 50 brightness in tent mode, and another 10% drop after working on a document and browsing for an hour. Charging is also convenient, using a typical 65W USB PD compatible charger that can fully charge the laptop without issues. This feature is especially useful, eliminating the need to carry a bulky power brick. Overall, the battery life and charging system of the UX363 are significant strengths.
Connectivity
The ASUS ZenBook Flip 13 UX363 features a sturdy hinge, supporting multiple viewing angles. It includes two Thunderbolt 4 ports, one full-size HDMI port, and a USB 3.0 Type-A port. The lack of an audio jack is notable, but a dongle converts a Thunderbolt 4 port to audio output. Get your hands on Acer Swift 1 if you're looking for better connectivity.
