Adopt a slim body that cuts less than 20mm with a calm pine gray color

Let's start with the exterior. The body color is calm with a gun metal mat called "pine gray", and can be handled without choosing a usage scene. The top plate has a spin processing of concentric circles, mainly the ASUS logo, which can be said to be the identity of the ZenBook series, and is luxurious. The material of the top plate is an aluminum alloy, which is also sturdy, conforming to the MIL-STD-810G of the United States Pentagon. The focusing organic EL display has a sense of immersion because the left and right bezel width is as narrow, about 5.74 mm, and the screen occupancy is about 86.9 %. The screen resolution is a full HD display of 1920 x 1080 pixels. When the display is opened, an ergol shift hinge sinks on the hinge side is adopted, and the keyboard tilts slightly forward (about 3 degrees). This makes it easier to typing and plays a role in securing the intake space at the bottom of the body. The display is a glossy glare type and supports touch operation. The color gamut is 100 % of the DCI-P3 cover rate and 133 % of SRGB realize a real and detailed image, and it is possible to see it in a clear color, including digital camera images and videos. can. In addition, the HDR (High Dynamic Range) standard DisplayhDR 500 True Black has been certified, and the contrast ratio is 1 million: 1. Pantone authentication of Color Science giant has already been acquired. Speaking of OLED, I think some people are concerned about burning the screen. In order to prevent this, in order to prevent this, the dark mode of Windows is shipped as the default, and a special screen saver that turns on / off the light emission of all pixels is activated to protect OLED. In addition, Samsung's baking technology has already been introduced. It is said that it detects deteriorated elements and increases the current to the element to correct the reduced light amount. I think that the default is that the dark mode is default, but this manuscript is actually written in ZenBook Pro 15 OLED, but the text editor screen is white back, but character conversion candidates, etc. Is displayed in a black back. For this reason, the conversion candidate was clearly visible, and it was easy for me to see it. In this area, you should do your own customization. The function to protect these OLED is provided on the "Customization" tab in the utility's "My ASUS". In the "ASUS OLED CARE" item, functions such as screensaver settings and pixel shifts can be turned on / off. Interesting is the "target mode", which is to darken OLED deterioration except for active windows. If you open a number of windows and work, the screen tends to be messed up, but using the target mode will highlight the active window, so it feels surprisingly easy to see. Next, let's look around the interface.
