Now that it’s available for purchased in the United States, we know the answer: a lot. The Asus ExpertBok Ultra is available now for $3600.What you get for that price is a premium laptop that measures 16.4mm (0.65″) at its thickest point and 10.9mm (0.43″) at its thinnest, and which weighs just 990 grams (2.18 pounds).But Asus packed a lot into that compact design. The notebook has a 14 inch, 2880 x 18900 pixel tandem OLED display with up to 600 nits brightness, an Intel Core Ultra X7 358H 16-core processor with Intel Arc B390 12-core graphics, 32GB of LPDDR5x-8533 onboard memory, and an M.2 2280 slot with a 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD.The laptop has a “ceraluminum” finish, which is a word Asus uses to describe its process for giving a magnesium-aluminum alloy chassis a ceramic-like, scratch-resistant finish. There’s a backlit chicklet-style keyboard and a large haptic touchpad.Ports include:2 x Thunderbolt 4 (40 Gbps)2 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10 Gbps)1 x HDMI 2.11 x 3.5mm audioOther features include support for WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 6.0, a 70 Wh battery, 6 speakers, dual microphones, and a 1080p webcam with a privacy shutter that Asus says supports “AI image upscaling to 5MP.” There’s also an IR camera for Windows Hello-compatible face recognition. There’s also a fingerprint sensor.While the astronomically high price tag will make this a laptop that’s out of range for many customers, it is a business laptop, so it ships with Windows 11 Pro instead of Home and comes with a 3-year warranty rather than the 1 year warranty that’s more common with consumer devices.The $3599 laptop also might not be the most expensive variant of the ExpertBook Ultra. While the company isn’t selling higher-spec models in the US yet, Asus did reveal during CES in January that the laptop would eventually be available with up to an Intel Core Ultra X9 388H processor, 64GB of RAM, and 2TB of storage.
