ASUS unveiled the ZenBook A16 at CES 2026, a 16-inch Windows-on-Arm laptop designed for extreme portability and efficiency. Weighing just 1.2 kg and measuring 16.5 mm thick, it features a durable Ceraluminum chassis, which is 30% lighter and three times more durable than standard aluminum. Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme processor and equipped with 48 GB of LPDDR5x memory, the A16 targets commuters and general productivity users.

Its standout feature is a 70 Wh battery promising up to 21 hours of runtime. The device boasts a 3K OLED touch display with 120 Hz refresh rate and 1100 nits peak brightness. While port selection is limited to dual USB4, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, and HDMI 2.1, the ZenBook A16 represents a significant step forward for Arm-based laptops in balancing performance, premium display technology, and all-day battery life.
