The ZenBook 15 Oled is the new large format ultrabook from Asus. Still decked out with its Oled panel, it has a Ryzen AMD processor and sports the new Plasma Ceramic finish on its cover.
The Asus Zenbook 15 Oled offers top-notch performance for an ultrabook, notably thanks to AMD’s valiant Ryzen 7 which allows it some video gaming escapades and the Oled panel. The absence of anti-reflective treatment on the panel is also a point to consider if you plan to use it outdoors. However, some small details tarnish this seemingly idyllic picture, particularly decent battery life, but a little tight for an ultrabook. Right-handers, for their part, will rail against the grouping of the connections on the right side of the ZenBook. For the rest, it’s a large format ultrabook to consider, especially if you find it at a lower price than its direct competitors.
Strong points
- Ryzen 7 performance.
- Well calibrated Oled panel.
- Light play possible.
Weak points
- Screen subject to reflections.
- Poorly distributed connectivity.
- SSD not very durable.
NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices practiced by all merchants for the product last month, with rules of security to exclude prices from shops whose VAT policy is not clear (so-called “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).

The Acer Aspire Vero is gradually improving and in 2023 we will discover a now colorful PC which incorporates more recycled plastic and a much better screen. This machine is perfectly suited to office automation, but shows shortcomings in certain categories, in particular limited autonomy.
