One of the key draws to the new line-up is the addition of a physical ASUS Dial control dial that was created in collaboration with Adobe that is able to offer the precision necessary for intricate tasks like colour grading and video editing. Thus far, the ASUS Dial is compatible with the most popular content creator apps like Photoshop, Premiere Pro and After Effects. 

The other key feature of the new Proart Studiobook series are its displays with both the ASUS Proart Studiobook Pro 16 OLED and the ASUS Proart Studiobook 16 OLED packing professional-grade displays. 

Both versions come with up to 16-inch 4K OLED HDR 16:10 panels that offer 550-nit peak brightness, 60Hz refresh rates as well as industry-standard colour accuracy with 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut reproduction, Pantone validation and Calman Verified certification. The panels also have a Delta E < 2 rating from the factory that attests to their colour accuracy and VESA DisplayHDR 500 True Black accreditation.

The hardware is equally respectable as well with the ASUS Proart Studiobook Pro 16 OLED packing the latest AMD Ryzen 5000 H-series mobile processors or a 3rd generation Intel Xeon workstation processor paired with NVIDIA RTX A2000 and A5000 laptop graphics for 3D rendering, CAD CAM and heavy duty video editing.

The more mainstream ASUS Proart Studiobook 16 OLED features either an AMD Ryzen 5000 H-series processor or an Intel Core i9 processor with either NVIDIA GeForce RTX3070 or 3060 graphics. 

Both the Pro and non-Pro versions use certified NVIDIA Studio Drivers for performance and stability. Both Proart Studiobook variants will also sport dual PCIe SSDs, up to 64GB 3,200MHz DDR4 RAM, Thunderbolt 4 connections, HDMI 2.1 ports, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C ports and SD card readers too.
