autonomy
After a few weeks of use, everything is working properly, the update to W11 was done without any problems, for the moment the only problem is the autonomy which is less than half of what was announced.
Built for performance and mobility, the ASUS Zenbook 14 BX425EA has a remarkable design. Combining a compact chassis with a slim screen, it maximizes both comfort and mobility! Perfect for work and casual entertainment, this laptop will be an ideal purchase for frequent travelers! The ASUS Zenbook 14 BX425EA-BM102R laptop offers excellent performance and fast operation thanks to its Intel Core i7-1165G7 processor, 32GB of DDR4 memory and 512GB PCIe M.2 SSD.
The ZenBook 14 BX425EA is the perfect travel companion thanks to its compact 14" form factor, ultra-thin profile and light weight. It features multiple I/O ports (including HDMI and Thunderbolt 4) so you can use your laptop on the go. And with the ZenBook 14's exceptional battery life, going on the road without your charger won't be a disaster. At other times, if you're short on time, you can charge your battery to 60% in just 49 minutes thanks to its fast charging feature.
The ZenBook 14 features a NanoEdge display with a thin bezel and a 90% screen to device ratio for a more immersive viewing experience. In addition, the display's power consumption is only 1 Watt, which saves you battery power. However, the screen does not compromise on brightness, which can go up to 400 nits.
The Intel Core processor in the ZenBook 14 delivers high performance that simplifies multitasking while improving your productivity and entertainment quality. In addition, the ZenBook 14 features a PCIe SSD and Wi-Fi 6, which also boost system performance. For your convenience, the ZenBook 14 features the innovative NumPad, a dual-function touchpad that includes a backlit numeric keypad. Thanks to its intelligent software, the touchpad can control cursor movements even when NumPad is activated.

After a few weeks of use, everything is working properly, the update to W11 was done without any problems, for the moment the only problem is the autonomy which is less than half of what was announced.
I received this computer in New Zealand in just 10 days, in perfect condition and with chronopost tracking.
I'm very pleased with the delivery.
I've been using it for 4 months now and it works great, great battery life and the screen is great. It plays 4k videos without any problem.
The biggest thing for me is that I fell down the stairs with the PC open, it smashed on all the steps, the screen closed in the action, I thought it would be ruined and well no! My stairs are all damaged but the pc doesn't even have a scratch on it and it works as before. I was shocked at the strength of it, hence my comment here about how solid it is. I was right to choose the aluminium finish.
There is only one traditional USB port, which means you have to buy a USB power strip. Other than that it's perfect in my opinion.
Thanks LDLC!
Very good, light, powerful, beautiful screen.
The keyboard takes some getting used to, especially the "Enter" key which is too small and not positioned in a classic way.
The plastic casing is already getting damaged by rubbing against the connectors when connecting the HDMI and USB-C.
Very fast delivery, product corresponds exactly to my expectations. the humorous side of the site is a plus
