Asus is a leader in laptop innovation, so I can’t say I’m 100% surprised to learn the company threw some ceramic in a laptop to make the lightest Copilot+ PC to date.
The Asus Zenbook A14 surfs onto the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite wave at just 2.16 pounds. That’s over half a pound lighter than the 2.7-pound MacBook Air 13-inch (M3). Asus delivers that weight with its previously unveiled Ceraluminum, a trademarked way to say that the company used uniquely applied ceramic for the entire chassis, including the lid, keyboard frame, and deck.
