ASUS has now announced the ProArt PX13 laptop with a 13.3-inch OLED panel with a 3K resolution and a nice 360-degree hinge, so it means the Zen 5-powered laptop can also act as a tablet, with touch support and even a stylus. Inside, we'll have the Zen 5-based AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 "Strix Point" APU, with an option for the Ryzen AI 9 HX 365 chip. There's discrete graphics here with up to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU, and up to 32GB of LPDDR5X memory, with USB4 and Wi-Fi 7 support.

There's also a 16-inch version with the same Strix Point APU and up to RTX 4070 GPU, with support for up to 64GB of LPDDR5X memory and up to 4TB of Gen4 SSD storage (compared to the PX13 with 2TB SSD max). There's an even better 4K-capable OLED display in the 16-inch ASUS laptop, in 16:10 aspect ratio.
