Ter vergelijking: alle testtoestellen variëren van 0.8 (minimum) tot 240 (maximum) ms. » 85 % van alle toestellen zijn beter.

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
| Screen flickering / PWM waargenomen | 25510 Hz | ≤ 29 % helderheid instelling |  |
Het backlight van het scherm flikkert aan 25510 Hz (hoogstwaarschijnlijk met PWM - Pulse-Width Modulation) aan een helderheid van 29 % en lager. Boven deze helderheid zou er geen flickering / PWM mogen optreden. De frequentie van 25510 Hz is redelijk hoog en de meeste mensen die gevoelig zijn aan flickering zouden dit dus niet mogen waarnemen of geïrriteerde ogen krijgen. Ter vergelijking: 52 % van alle geteste toestellen maakten geen gebruik van PWM om de schermhelderheid te verlagen. Als het wel werd gebruikt, werd een gemiddelde van 8781 (minimum: 43 - maximum: 142900) Hz waargenomen. | |||

De $1700 kostende Asus Zenbook Pro UX550VE met GTX 1050 Ti heeft wat betreft prestaties grote stappen gemaakt sinds de UX550VD met GTX 1050. Het apparaat bevat nog dezelfde fraaie unibody behuizing, welke een laag gewicht en beperkte afmetingen heeft. Daarnaast is het aanbod van poorten veelzijdig, hoewel het vervangen van twee conventionele USB Type-A poorten met Thunderbolt/Type-C volgens ons te ver op zaken vooruitloopt. Het apparaat presteert ook goed bij korte, geconcentreerde belasting, terwijl de looptijden in vergelijking met de concurrentie daar geen nadeel van ondervinden. Ook is het apparaat eenvoudig te onderhouden.
Alles bij elkaar is de Zenbook Pro een aantrekkelijk pakket zonder grote tekortkomingen, afgezien van beperkte prestaties bij langdurige belasting.
Terugkerende klachten van ons voorgaande testapparaat zijn de teleurstellende CPU en GPU prestaties bij gezamenlijke belasting en het feit dat de GTX 1050 Ti nooit maximaal heeft kunnen presteren. De prestaties liggen nog steeds ver boven die van het GTX 1050 model, hoewel een krachtiger koelsysteem de potentie van het apparaat aanzienlijk verhoogd had. Een ander nadeel vergeleken met de voorganger zijn de enigszins hogere geluidsniveaus (het huidige testmodel heeft echter last van een zwakke ventilator). Tenslotte kwamen we enkele kleinere gebreken tegen: een slechte webcam en PWM bij een helderheid lager dan 30%.
Een stevigere behuizing, betere invoerapparaten en een hoogwaardiger beeldscherm zijn terug te vinden bij duurdere concurrenten, zoals de Dell XPS 15 9560, Lenovo Yoga 720, MSI GS63VR, en Microsoft Surface Book 2. Echter, de Zenbook Pro blijft een aantrekkelijk pakket zonder grote tekortkomingen, afgezien van de teleurstellende prestaties onder langdurige belasting.
