70% I loved Asus’s Zenbook A14 and A16 — but a $200 price hike changes everything
Bron: Tom's Guide EN→NL
As the Asus Zenbook A14 was put on the right track to take on the MacBook Air last year, this year’s A14 and A16 march forward when it comes to performance, but while the A16 shows up strongly with pro level performance in a skinny body, the A14 takes a step back in value for money. For great ultra-portable all-rounders, Apple stays, and if you’re loyal to Microsoft’s OS and want that same experience, the Zenbook A14 is a good (if expensive) alternative. Meanwhile, the A16 sets a new precedent for a thin and light pro machine that bridges the gap between MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, but the stamina suffers because of it. And with adjusted pricing showing the gap widening in bang for buck between Apple and Asus, what was a shoe-in for two of my favorite systems of the year has left me feeling indifferent.

80% Asus Zenbook A16 review: next-gen Qualcomm chipset makes this lightweight laptop a MacBook beater
Bron: Stuff TV EN→NL
Qualcomm has come a long way in a single processor generation. Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme is a fantastically powerful yet efficient chipset that also addresses most of the software concerns around its predecessor. It either keeps pace or bests the Intel and AMD competition on Windows, and comfortably matches some of Apple’s beefiest processors for outright oomph. It should absolutely be in the conversation for anyone looking for a do-anything ultraportable that can go all day away on battery power alone. The Zenbook A16 puts the chip in a great light, with amazingly portable yet sturdy build, gorgeous display and ample connectivity. It’s not perfect: the somewhat slippery keyboard takes some getting used to and I’ve heard better sound from other thin and light laptops. The high-end CPU commands a high price, too – one not everyone needs to pay if they’re mainly doing basic desktop tasks. That said, it’s now the first laptop that comes to mind for a Windows-powered alternative to a tricked-out 15in MacBook Air or M5 Pro-powered 17in MacBook Pro.

80% Asus Zenbook A16 (2026) review: A genuine MacBook Air contender
Bron: T3 EN→NL
In the Zenbook A16, Asus has managed to make what I feel confident in labelling the least cumbersome 16-inch laptop I've ever personally tested – and one of the first that didn't feel inconvenient compared to a 14-inch alternative. That's a bigger testimonial than it sounds, but it was only slightly let down by the Ceraluminum finish that I can't quite vouch for. Pricing is also an impossible-to-ignore factor, and it might mean that the showstopping Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme chipset isn't a smart choice for the vast majority of people – it does bring hugely impressive performance (but spotty gaming coverage). That makes what feels like a mainstream contender more niche in reality, but some of the step-down versions (and the A14, of course) are likely to be more unqualified winners. As it stands, Asus' 16-inch Zenbook is a sleek beauty – so if you're after Windows laptop in such a size, then the A16 is a surefire high-end option.

85% Asus Zenbook A16 review (UX3607OA 2026 model, Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme)
Bron: Ultrabook Review EN→NL
This Zenbook A16 is a peculiar product. Let’s get one thing straight and clear: when it comes to Snapdragon Windows laptops, it’s still all about how the software that you’re planning on running works on this hardware. Or whether it works at all. Software compatibility has improved over the last year, but the experience is still not entirely what’s offered with x86 Intel/AMD hardware, especially when it comes to older software or localized/specialized programs. On the other hand, standard apps work fine, smoothly and efficiently on this hardware, and I still believe Snapdragon laptops are at their best in the mid-range segment, for casual everyday use.

90% Asus Zenbook A16 (2026) Review
Bron: Trusted Reviews EN→NL
The Asus Zenbook A16 (2026) is one of the most complete ultrabooks you can purchase, with fantastic performance from its Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme processor, a dazzling 16-inch OLED screen and fantastic endurance. You will have to pay quite a premium for it, though. The LG Gram Pro 16 is the closest rival here, trading out the Snapdragon chip for a more modest eight-core Intel Core Ultra 7 258V and switching to an IPS screen rather than OLED. You get as light a chassis, too, and longer battery life, while saving a few hundred pounds or dollars. Likewise, the Acer Swift 16 AI features a high-res OLED screen and solid endurance, although it sacrifices some performance and is heavier, but it is virtually half the price of the Asus choice. The Zenbook A16 (2026) is a fantastic Arm-based Windows ultrabook, just as long as you’ve got the dough to pick one up. For more options, though, check out our list of the best laptops we’ve tested.

2026 Asus Zenbook A16 (16-inch OLED, Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme), refreshed Zenbook A14 explained
Bron: Ultrabook Review EN→NL
All in all, the Zenbook A16 is a rather interesting ultra-light laptop with an excellent display, solid inputs and IO, and impressive power at its size. But it’s still a Snapdragon laptop with its quirks and software limitations, which buyers are going to struggle to adopt.
