The ASUS Zenbook 14X OLED offers a balance of performance and portability at a lower midrange price, making it suitable for general use and light engineering tasks with its Intel i5 processor and integrated Iris Xe graphics. Its OLED screen with high resolution and touch capability provides vibrant colors and deep blacks, ideal for media consumption and everyday work. The laptop is lightweight and has a good battery life, but it may not excel in intensive gaming or advanced 3D rendering due to its integrated graphics. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge 14, while pricier, delivers superior performance for demanding tasks with its Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite processor and Adreno 750 graphics, catering well to engineering applications and machine learning tasks. Its OLED display matches the ASUS in resolution and touch capability, but offers better brightness and color accuracy, which is beneficial for professionals who require color precision. The Samsung also boasts a longer battery life and a 2-in-1 design for added versatility, though it's slightly heavier and may not be as readily available given its newer release date. In summary, if you prioritize a balance of performance, display quality, and value, the ASUS Zenbook 14X OLED is a strong contender. However, if you're looking for top-tier performance, especially in engineering and machine learning, and are willing to invest more for a convertible design with excellent battery life, the Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge 14 would be the better choice.

PCMag
Matthew Buzzi | September 2023
"While one of the more budget-friendly configurations of the Asus Zenbook 14X OLED may make a compelling case as a top value pick, it’s difficult to be disappointed with the more expensive model we reviewed here. At its core, for all models, it’s a luxury-built laptop with extreme portability and a gorgeous OLED display. Our unit rocks with a snappy Core i9 processor for getting real work done, and the discrete GPU—even if it has a clear power ceiling—is a bonus for creative pros."
