Кому нужна технология IPS, если OLED стоит столько же? Asus ZenBook 13 UX325EA стал одним из самых доступных ультрабуков с OLED, обеспечивая более качественную картинку за приемлемые деньги

Пока в мире смартфонов технология OLED постепенно стала стандартом, в мире ноутбуков дела развивались более консервативно. Буквально пару-тройку лет назад ноутбуков с OLED было столько, что пальцев одной руки хватило бы пересчитать, например, Alienware 13 и Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga - и за такой экран предлагалось очень серьёзно доплатить. Как правило, такие ноутбуки стоили не меньше 2000 долларов США. Широкомасштабный выпуск 15.6-дюймовых матриц Samsung AMOLED 2160p немного улучшил положение дел, но такие ноутбуки по-прежнему стоили крайне дорого, а ещё предлагались исключительно с компонентами Intel + Nvidia. Возможно, 2021 год наконец станет тем дебютом технологии, который должен был состояться ещё году в 2013, и даст в руки пользователя реальный выбор.

Свежий пресс-релиз Asus рассказывает об обновлении 13.3-дюймовых моделей UX325. Теперь в них (за приемлемые деньги!) будут экраны OLED, а это и очень быстрый отклик, и более насыщенные, точные цвета, и больше яркости, и больше контрастности, и поддержка HDR. Самая доступная конфигурация UX325 с матрицей OLED 1080p должна стоить около $900, примерно столько же, сколько рядовой ультрабук средне-верхней ценовой полки с экраном IPS.

В обсуждаемой конфигурации за 900 долларов США установлено 8 ГБ оперативной памяти LPDDR4X, она навсегда припаяна к материнской плате. Конфигурации с большим количеством RAM стоят заметно дороже.

В североамериканском регионе пока будет три конфигурации: UX325EA-XS74, UX325EA-DS51, UX325EA-DS71. У нас есть обзор UX325 с экраном IPS, его можно прочитать здесь.

Ключевые характеристики:

  • Intel i5-1135G7, i7-1165G7
  • 8 ГБ или 16 ГБ оперативной памяти
  • Накопитель 256 ГБ или 512 ГБ (PCI-Express 3.0 x2)
  • 2 x Thunderbolt 4
  • USB 3.2 Gen 1, HDMI 2.0, micro-SD
  • Wi-Fi 6
  • аккумулятор ёмкостью 67 Вт-ч
  • 65-ваттное ЗУ
  • NumberPad 2.0, инфракрасные сканеры лица
  • 1.11 килограмма, 304 на 203 на 13.9 миллиметра

Кто производит обсуждаемую матрицу? Скорее всего, компания JOLED, или же Samsung. Точных сведений пока нет. Почти наверняка известно, что Samsung производит 13.3-дюймовые матрицы с разрешением 3840 на 2160. Но здесь речь идёт о разрешении 1920 на 1080.

USB-C Easy Charge takes the frustration out of long journeys or travel in locations with limited mains power.
 
Ergonomic design
The new edge-to-edge ergonomic keyboard design on ZenBook 13 OLED increases the size of the keyboard for a more comfortable typing experience. It also creates space for an extra set of useful function keys at the right-hand side of the keyboard. For maximum typing comfort, the precision-engineered ErgoLift hinge automatically tilts the keyboard to the optimum typing angle when the lid is opened. This action also creates space under the laptop for extra cooling airflow.
Selectable cooling-fan profiles give users the choice of Whisper mode for ultra-quiet cooling, Standard mode for balanced dynamic performance, or Performance mode for high-efficiency cooling when full performance is needed.

For easy data entry, there’s the productivity-enhancing ASUS NumberPad 2.0. This is a dual-function touchpad with an integrated LED-illuminated full-size numeric keypad: simply tapping the icon on the touchpad turns NumberPad on and off.
An integrated infrared (IR) camera located on the top bezel makes password-free face login fast and easy with Windows Hello. It also works in dim lighting conditions, so accessing ZenBook 13 OLED is easier and faster than ever in any environment.
