Noise Cancelation
                  Next-level AI noise-canceling audio technologyWith the increase of remote work and video conferences, we implemented the ASUS AI noise-canceling technology to ensure the best experience. ASUS AI noise-canceling audio employs machine learning in order to isolate unwanted noise from human speech. The ClearVoice Mic feature in the MyASUS app can filter out ambient noise, and normalize all individual voices in Multi-presenter mode from different positions for optimum group conference-call quality. The ClearVoice Speaker feature filters out all ambient noise apart from human speech — so you’ll hear what everyone else is saying.

technology

Our HD infrared camera with AdaptiveLock is powered by the new Intel Visual Sensing Controller. This AI-powered feature senses when you move away from the laptop and locks the laptop for security, and logs right back in when you approach the laptop. When you look away from the screen, it also dims the screen to save battery life.

A man in suit is sitting in front of the laptop in the office with the bright screen on the left picture. On the right picture, the man in suit left the laptop, and the laptop dims.

There’s also a color sensor that detects ambient light levels and automatically adjusts the brightness and color temperature of the screen to provide the best-looking image for your surroundings.

In comparison with a lower color temperature on the left picture, which is with a whiter background, the right picture shows a higher color temperature, which is in a more yellow background.

The 5 MP AI webcam features ASUS 3D Noise Reduction (3DNR) technology to give you superbly clear video calls. The unique algorithm sharpens images and performs real-time de-noising to make sure everything looks crisp and clear during video calls.

In comparison with a blurrier picture on the left without real-time 3D noise reduction, the right picture is clearer with real-time 3D noise reduction.

All specifications are subject to change without notice. Please check with your supplier for exact offers. Products may not be available in all markets.
Some of the third party video calling applications (like Microsoft Teams Free, Wechat, Line, and so on) may not support webcam screen rotate function.

The visual appearance of OLED displays may change over the product’s lifetime. This is expected behavior that can include image persistence or burn-in, where the display shows a faint remnant of an image even after a new image appears on the screen. This tends to occur only in extreme use cases, such as when a static, high-contrast image is continuously displayed for prolonged periods of time. ASUS laptops with an OLED display minimize this risk by setting Windows’s Dark mode as default, as well as shortening the idle time before the screen is turned off — both on mains (AC) and battery (DC) power. This dual approach minimizes the potential for burn-in to maximize the lifespan of your OLED display lifespan, and also reduces unnecessary power draw for optimal battery life. We also recommended adjust the brightness of your OLED display to complement the ambient lighting in your environment, rather than keeping the screen at maximum brightness at all times. You should also ensure that you have an animated, dark-background screensaver enabled in the Windows Settings tool.

Some of the applications (such as games) may not support Fullscreen mode. Please adjust to Windowed mode or Borderless mode for better program execution.
Due to the unique display materials, you might notice some creases in the folding area and this is a normal characteristics of Foldable OLED displays. However, this doesn’t influence the quality and performance of the display and doesn’t affect your user experience either.
When using the device, please avoid using stylus or sharp items to touch the display, as they might damage the display.
