Review: The Asus TUF Gaming A14 is an exceptional ultrabook for work and play

The Asus TUF Gaming A14 has a 14-inch screen, 3.2 pound weight, and 0.78-inch thinness.

It’s exceptionally portable but delivers impressive gaming performance for the price.

The A14 is available in three different configurations at launch with varying amounts of memory and an additional high-performance processor option.

There are some downsides, like its non-upgradeable memory, but it's an appealing notebook for work and play.

The Asus TUF Gaming A14 is available directly from Asus and B&H for $ 1,399 .

It uses chiclet keys with 1.7mm of travel and doesn't feel soft or mushy when bottomed out.

The laptop comes with a quality webcam that can record up to 1080p and 30 fps.

The speakers are passable for the size of the laptop and have more bass than I expected.

Despite its small size, the TUF Gaming A14 is a surprisingly capable gaming laptop.

It pushes its RTX 4060 very well and, while it doesn’t lead in all of our gaming tests, it’s no slouch.
