I often complain about boring laptop designs for giving us the same gray or silver clamshells, and most of the new laptops at IFA Berlin this year didn't break that mold. So it's easy for the Asus Zenbook S 14 and Zenbook S 16 to stand out in a sea of often unremarkable-looking clamshells.
Sure, Asus may only offer a "Scandinavian White" and dark "Zumaia Gray" colorway for its S 14 and S 16 laptops, but the stylized "Zenbook" design on the top cover does a lot to elevate what would otherwise be a very simple, minimalist ultralight laptop.
