ASUS has officially introduced the latest additions to its premium laptop lineup in the Philippines, unveiling the 2026 Zenbook DUO and Zenbook S14 alongside the newly revealed Zenbook A16. Designed to meet the evolving needs of modern Filipino users, these AI-powered devices combine cutting-edge performance, long-lasting battery life, and sleek, durable builds. Powered by the latest Intel Core Ultra 9 Series 3 processors—and in the case of the A16, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme—this new generation of Zenbooks emphasizes intelligent computing and seamless productivity.
Leading the launch is the Zenbook DUO UX8407, a dual-screen powerhouse engineered for multitasking. It features ASUS’ signature five-mode versatility, allowing users to switch between Laptop, Dual-Screen, Virtual Keyboard, Desktop, and Sharing modes depending on their workflow. The device sports two 14-inch ASUS Lumina Pro OLED touchscreens with 144Hz refresh rates and up to 1,000 nits brightness, now with a significantly reduced screen gap for a more immersive experience. Encased in a durable Ceraluminum finish, the laptop is lighter and more resilient than traditional metal builds.
Under the hood, the Zenbook DUO is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 9 Series 3 processor paired with a 50 TOPS NPU, enabling smooth handling of AI-driven tasks and qualifying it as a Copilot+ PC for Windows 11 integration. It is backed by dual batteries that can last up to 32 hours on a single display and 18 hours with both screens active. The device includes 32GB LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB PCIe 4 SSD storage, along with a full suite of ports such as Thunderbolt 4, USB-A, HDMI 2.1, and an audio jack. It is priced at PHP 179,995.
Following closely is the Zenbook S14 UX5406, ASUS’ slimmest Zenbook yet at just 1.1 cm thin and weighing only 1.2 kg. Built with a premium Ceraluminum lid, this ultrathin laptop combines portability with performance. It features a 14-inch 3K ASUS Lumina OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 1,100 nits brightness, delivering vibrant visuals for both work and entertainment.
Like the DUO, the Zenbook S14 runs on an Intel Core Ultra 9 Series 3 processor with a 50 TOPS NPU, making it capable of handling AI workloads efficiently. It also supports Windows 11 Copilot features as a Copilot+ PC. Despite its slim profile, it houses a 77Wh battery that can last up to 27 hours, making it ideal for professionals constantly on the move. It comes with the same memory and storage configuration—32GB RAM and 1TB SSD—and similar connectivity options. The Zenbook S14 is priced at PHP 129,995.
Completing the lineup is the Zenbook A16 UX3607, a larger yet still lightweight option at 1.2 kg. Designed as the successor to the popular Zenbook A14, it features a spacious 16-inch 3K ASUS Lumina OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme processor and equipped with an 80 TOPS NPU, it delivers significantly faster AI performance and overall processing power compared to competitors. With up to 21 hours of battery life, the A16 is built for extended productivity and advanced AI computing in a thin, durable Ceraluminum chassis. This model will be available in the Philippines soon.
ASUS emphasizes that these new Zenbooks are built to redefine what premium AI laptops can offer—balancing performance, portability, and real-world usability. Both the Zenbook DUO and S14 will be available through ASUS stores, bundled with Office 2024 lifetime access, a one-year Microsoft 365 Basic subscription with 100GB cloud storage, a laptop sleeve, and an ASUS service package that includes a two-year international warranty and one-year accidental damage protection.
