The Asus ProArt Studiobook 16 3D OLED could be the ultimate laptop for professional and aspiring artists. The biggest selling point here is the glasses-free 3D display that’s ideal for folks who work on 3D projects or who simply enjoy watching 3D content. This laptop also packs a 13th gen Intel Core GPU and an Nvidia RTX 40-series GPU, which should provide it with plenty of power for both creative projects and gaming.
Asus hasn’t yet said much about when the ProArt Studiobook 16 3D OLED will launch or how much it will cost. For the moment, all we know is that the company plans to release the laptop sometime in the second quarter of 2023.
The ProArt Studiobook 16 3D is a fairly large laptop. Though you can carry it around if you need to, it’s clear this laptop was meant to be kept on a desk. But it should look great wherever you situate it, thanks to its fetching Mineral Black finish.
Along the top of the display, you’ll find a long camera that capture’s your eyes’ movements (more on that in a bit). There’s also a rotary dial underneath the left side of the keyboard that can be used in creative apps (like the Adobe suite) to do things like switch between tools or zoom in and out.
Besides those two components, the ProArt Studiobook 16 3D looks like a standard laptop. This isn’t a negative since this device exists to help you create visual masterpieces.
The laptop’s design allows the screen to lie flat, which offers a viewing angle of up to 180 degrees, this could be handy for creatives.
There are numerous ports across the laptop. This includes two Thunderbolt 4/USB-C, two USB-A, one HDMI 2.1, an SD card slot, an ethernet port, a headphone jack and a security lock.
Asus ProArt Studiobook 16 3D OLED: Display
The 3D-capable display is this laptop’s most distinctive feature.
Asus claims this is the “world’s first 16-inch 3.2K 120Hz 3D OLED 16:10 display.” That’s a lot of caveats to be certain. The company also says the display covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and has a Delta-E value of less than 2 (the closer to 0, the better).
The laptop’s 3D display is pretty impressive, due to the fact that the 3D camera tracks the movement of your eyes instead of your head. Because of that, the 3D image stayed consistent regardless of where you look. Even when you move your head or move the laptop to different angles, the 3D image moves as if it was a physical object. It’s hard to describe, but this is super impressive stuff.
With the flick of a switch, you can convert 2D images to 3D in real-time, and vice versa.
Asus ProArt Studiobook 16 3D OLED: Performance
It packs a 13th gen Intel Core Raptor Lake CPU, an RTX 40-series GPU, up to 64GB of RAM and up to 8TB of SSD storage. There are also two slots for M.2 SSD cards in case you need additional storage.
The laptop also includes Asus’ IceCool Pro thermal technology that serves to maintain consistent performance when you’re doing resource-intensive tasks.
