Asus ZenBook Flip S – Flip Tiger Lake

Memory and storage tests

This year is packed with technological innovations and laptops are an area where it’s all happening. In addition, Intel is under a lot of pressure, which was reflected in the relatively fast release of the new gen of Tiger Lake processors, and the first novelty from Asus has already reached our editorial office. What is the new ZenBook Flip S like and is the 11th gen of Intel Core even sensible compared to the 10th gen in the recently tested ZenBook 14?

Memory and storage tests




An unexpected surprise was brought by the speed of RAM, where the Flip S defeats all the computers tested so far. This is mainly due to 4266 MHz LPDDR4X memory. It beats its direct competition by 30–40% in speed tests. However, the latency is comparable to the competition.


The SSD speeds are also a pleasant surprise, where Asus usually saves, which we also saw with the ZenBook 14. This time, however, read and speeds are above 3 GB/s, which meets the highest current level in this area. So I have no comments here, I can only praise.

Why put connectors from the front of the motherboard when they can be from the back? This is what Asus and other manufacturers are thinking with boards with, say, an inverted connector layout. The TUF B760M-BTF WiFi (D4) model has all connectors moved from front to back. This, with the current trend of glass side panels, mainly contributes to a nicer look. But we’ll also be interested in other, measurable things as part of our analysis. Read more “Asus TUF B760M-BTF WiFi D4: All connectors out of sight” »
