ASUS has once again showcased why it is one of the world’s leading makers of laptops and technology with a comprehensive expansion of its Copilot+ PC portfolio for CES 2025, introducing a diverse range of laptops powered by the latest processors from Qualcomm, AMD and Intel.
ASUS Zenbook A14 at CES 2025
ASUS consistently brings some of the most exciting devices to CES and 2025 is no exception, with the groundbreaking Zenbook A14 leading the charge. This incredibly thin laptop is among the world’s lightest Copilot+ PCs, weighing just under one kilogram. It features ASUS’s innovative use of Ceraluminum, a proprietary material that is 30 per cent lighter than traditional anodized aluminum while offering superior scratch resistance and smudge-free properties.
Powered by the Snapdragon X Series AI-enabled processor, the laptop promises a staggering multi-working-day battery life while maintaining consistent performance. The device features a 14-inch FHD OLED NanoEdge display and incorporates advanced AI capabilities through its 45 TOPS Qualcomm Hexagon NPU. Judging by its appearance and performance at the ASUS hands-on event, the Zenbook A14 is a laptop to be excited about when it launches later in 2025.
Canadian consumers will have three configurations to choose from, with prices ranging from $1,199 to $1,499. The base model offers 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage, while the top-tier version boasts 32 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage. All models will be available through select retailers and the ASUS Store.
