ASUS ExpertBook Ultra launches as AI‑powered flagship business laptop in Philippines

ASUS introduced the ExpertBook Ultra, a sub‑1 kg AI‑focused business laptop, at a launch event in Manila’s Okada Ballroom attended by more than 1,200 industry leaders. The device features a 14‑inch 3K Tandem OLED touchscreen, Intel Core Ultra X9 Series 3 processor with up to 50 W sustained CPU power, Intel Arc B390 graphics, PCIe Gen 5 x4 storage, a 70 Wh battery promising up to 26 hours of use, and a magnesium‑aluminum chassis weighing just 0.99 kg.

A review of the same model in the United Arab Emirates highlighted its aerospace‑grade magnesium‑aluminum build, MIL‑STD‑810H durability, and performance that can handle 1080p gaming despite its ultra‑thin profile. Priced around US$3,600, the ExpertBook Ultra is positioned as a premium productivity hub for executives and professionals.

ASUS aims to make its ExpertBook line the top commercial PC brand in the Philippines by 2028, noting that the local commercial segment now represents 27 % of its sales in the country.
