The '''ASUS Zenbook Flip S13 (2022)''' is a premium 2-in-1 ultraportable laptop featuring a sleek design, high-performance components, and a vibrant OLED display. It is designed for users who need a versatile device for both productivity and media consumption.

== Primary Hardware ==
{{CheckAI}}
=== [[Central Processing Unit (CPU)|Processor]] ===
The ASUS Zenbook Flip S13 (2022) is powered by the [[Intel Core i7-1260P]] processor. This 12th-generation Alder Lake CPU features 12 cores, including 4 Performance cores and 8 Efficiency cores, and supports 16 threads. The processor can reach a maximum clock speed of 4.7 GHz.

The Zenbook Flip S13 is well-equipped for day-to-day tasks, whether at home or in the office. However, there is a noticeable variance in performance compared to other similarly equipped systems, such as the Acer Spin 5, which performs better in benchmarks like Cinebench, Geekbench, and Photoshop. This difference is attributed to the larger dimensions and more effective cooling of the Acer Spin 5.<ref name="PCMag">{{cite web |url=https://www.pcmag.com/reviews/asus-zenbook-s-13-flip-oled |title=Asus Zenbook S 13 Flip OLED Review |publisher=PCMag}}</ref>

In performance mode, the Core i7-1260P peaks at 38W PL2 setting before stabilizing around 30W, with temperatures in the low to mid-90s Celsius and fan noise levels of ~42 dB. In standard mode, the CPU stabilizes at 20W with temperatures around 76-78°C and quieter fan noise levels of 36 dB. Whisper mode limits the CPU to 12W, resulting in barely audible fans and temperatures in the low-70s, but the laptop performs at about 50% of its capabilities in this mode.<ref name="UltrabookReview">{{cite web |url=https://www.ultrabookreview.com/59227-asus-zenbook-flip-s13-review/ |title=Asus Zenbook Flip S13 Review |publisher=UltrabookReview}}</ref>

'''Benchmarks''':
* Cinebench R23:
** Performance mode: ~1450 points
** Standard mode: ~1000 points
** Whisper mode: ~50% performance
* Geekbench 5:
** Single-core: 1,707 points
** Multi-core: 8,797 points<ref name="TomsHardware">{{cite web |url=https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/asus-zenbook-s13-flip-oled |title=Asus Zenbook S 13 Flip OLED Review |publisher=TomsHardware}}</ref>

=== [[Graphics Processing Unit (GPU)|Graphics]] ===
The Zenbook Flip S13 (2022) is equipped with [[Intel Iris Xe Graphics]]. This integrated GPU is capable of handling general media tasks, such as streaming video and light photo and video editing, but it is not suitable for gaming or heavy media work.

The Iris Xe graphics in this design do not run at their peak capabilities but are fairly close, stabilizing at 25-28W of power with GPU clock speeds around 1.2 GHz, which is about 85% of the platform’s maximum frequency of 1.4 GHz.<ref name="UltrabookReview" />

'''Benchmarks''':
* 3DMark 13 – Fire Strike: 5324 (Graphics – 5647)
* 3DMark 13 – Night Raid: 18741 (Graphics – 23087)
* 3DMark 13 – Time Spy: 1976 (Graphics – 1746)
* Uniengine Superposition – 1080p Extreme: 1105
* Uniengine Superposition – 1080p Medium: 3198<ref name="UltrabookReview" />

=== [[Random Access Memory (RAM)|Memory]] ===
The Zenbook Flip S13 (2022) comes with 16 GB of LPDDR5-5200 RAM, which is soldered onto the motherboard and is not upgradeable. This amount of memory is sufficient for multitasking and productivity tasks.

'''Benchmarks''':
* PassMark 10: 2866 (Memory)<ref name="UltrabookReview" />

=== [[Storage]] ===
The Zenbook Flip S13 (2022) is equipped with a 1 TB M.2 NVMe SSD. The storage performance is assessed through various benchmarks, ensuring quick access to files and applications.

The SSD performed well in tests, providing fast read and write speeds suitable for most tasks, including content creation and gaming. However, it trailed in the 25GB file transfer test compared to competitors like the Spectre x360 and Yoga 9i Gen 7.<ref name="TomsHardware" />

'''Benchmarks''':
* PassMark 10: 34394 (Disk)
* 25GB file transfer test: 766.13 MBps<ref name="UltrabookReview" /><ref name="TomsHardware" />

=== Co-processors ===
The Zenbook Flip S13 (2022) does not include any dedicated co-processors.

== Input Devices ==
{{CheckAI}}
=== [[Keyboard]] ===
The Zenbook Flip S13 features a full-size keyboard with adjustable white backlighting. The typing experience is effective, with decent depth to each keystroke and a slightly dished surface on each keycap. The backlight enhances usability in low-light conditions. However, the typing experience can be a bit loud, which might attract unwanted attention in quiet places.<ref name="PCMag" /><ref name="UltrabookReview" />

=== [[Touchpad]] ===
The touchpad on the Zenbook Flip S13 is large and made of glass, measuring 5 inches across. It doubles as a numeric pad, providing added functionality for users who require numerical input. The touchpad works flawlessly with swipes, gestures, and taps, and the physical clicks in the lower corners are precise, though a bit clunky.<ref name="PCMag" /><ref name="UltrabookReview" />

=== [[Webcam]] ===
The Zenbook Flip S13 is equipped with a 1080p webcam with IR function for secure logins with Windows Hello facial recognition. The webcam provides clear and sharp images even under suboptimal indoor lighting conditions. However, it lacks a physical privacy shutter, but pressing F10 disables the camera.<ref name="PCMag" /><ref name="TomsHardware" />

=== [[Microphone]] ===
The integrated microphone performs adequately for video calls and voice commands, ensuring clear audio capture.<ref name="PCMag" />

== Output Devices ==
{{CheckAI}}
=== [[Display]] ===
The Zenbook Flip S13 (2022) features a 13.3-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2880 x 1800 and a 16:10 aspect ratio. The display supports touch and pen input, with an Asus pen included by default. The OLED technology provides excellent blacks, contrast, and viewing angles, but the peak brightness of 350 nits may limit outdoor usability.

The display delivers a full 100% of both the sRGB and DCI-P3 color gamuts, and an almost-perfect 97% of the Adobe RGB gamut. The brightness is 337 nits at full brightness, making it suitable for various lighting conditions. The HDR support enhances the viewing experience, making colors vibrant and realistic.<ref name="PCMag" /><ref name="UltrabookReview" /><ref name="TomsHardware" />

'''Benchmarks''':
* Coverage: 100% sRGB, 96.4% Adobe RGB, 99.9% DCI-P3
* Max brightness in the middle of the screen: 347.64 cd/m2
* Min brightness in the middle of the screen: 8.98 cd/m2

* Black on max brightness: 0 cd/m2<ref name="UltrabookReview" />

=== [[Audio]] ===
The Zenbook Flip S13 is equipped with a Dolby Atmos stereo sound system. The sound quality and volume are decent, though the spatial aspects of the Dolby Atmos format are largely wasted on laptop speakers. The system provides satisfactory audio for casual media consumption.<ref name="PCMag" /><ref name="UltrabookReview" /><ref name="TomsHardware" />

'''Benchmarks''':
* 77-78 dB at head-level<ref name="UltrabookReview" />

== Connectivity ==
{{CheckAI}}
=== [[WiFi]] ===

=== [[USB]] ===
The Zenbook Flip S13 is equipped with the following USB ports:
* 2 x USB-C 3.2 Gen 2
* 2 x USB-C with Thunderbolt 4
* 1 x 3.5mm headphone/microphone jack

== Case ==
{{CheckAI}}
The Zenbook Flip S13 (2022) features a magnesium-aluminum alloy chassis, providing a lightweight yet durable design. The laptop weighs just 2.43 pounds (1.10 kg) and has dimensions of 11.67 x 8.26 x 0.59 inches. The chassis is available in two colors: Ponder Blue and Refined White, and features Asus' Antibacterial Guard, a special coating that reportedly inhibits bacterial growth on the laptop's exterior.<ref name="PCMag" /><ref name="UltrabookReview" /><ref name="TomsHardware" />

The build quality is solid, with a very strong lid and almost no flex in the main chassis or the keyboard deck. The materials feel rough to the touch, offering good grip and should age well, resisting scratches and dents.<ref name="UltrabookReview" />
