Asus Zenbook S16 UM5606 (Ryzen AI 9) review: I think AMD just killed the MacBook Air

Asus Zenbook S16 UM5606 (Ryzen AI 9) review.

A new challenger has entered the arena! The Asus Zenbook S16 UM5606 is the first of many to offer AMD’s latest Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor, which boasts AI capabilities comparable to Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite. Does the Zenbook S16 deliver the goods to match AMD’s horsepower?

The Asus Zenbook S16 impressed me right from the start with its excellent performance and impressive graphics, topped off with long-lasting battery life and a decent 16-inch OLED display packed into a one-of-a-kind chassis. Despite all of those goodies, it suffers from a mediocre keyboard and touchpad experience and a slow SSD.
