ASUS certainly is no slouch when it comes to innovation. Just today at ASUS’ Edge of Beyond event at Computex Taiwan 2017, Jonney Shih, announced slew of new laptop that certainly piqued everyone’s interest. One of the highlights – and in fact the first among the new products unveiled – is the new ASUS Zenbook Flip S (UX370).
Touted as the world’s first thinnest 2-in-1 convertible laptop, the new laptop offers performance in an unbelievable slim body. As a convertible, the laptop features a 360°-flippable display, measures 10.9mm thin and weighs for only 1.1kg.
The flippable display is supported with ASUS very own Ergolift hinge, which was initially made available on ASUS Q325A. Its dual-action mechanism allows users to lift and tilt the keyboard into the perfect typing position when the display is opened beyond 135°. But the Zenbook Flip S isn’t all about beauty. What lurks inside is a beast that makes it a formidable device that is perfect for work and play.
