Great all-around performance

Coupled with up to 48 GB memory and capacious storage, B1 is the business laptop that equips you for even the most intensive work and ensures quick access to the content you need. It’s also primed for non-stop connectivity, with congestion-busting WiFi 6 and ASUS WiFi Master technology which help you automatically connect to the best WiFi signal, ensuring a rock-solid and stable connection wherever you are.

Speed and capacity, both on board
You can specify ASUS ExpertBook B1 with up to two storage devices, providing a powerful combination of ultra-fast 1 TB SSD and 2 TB HDD, perfect combination of high-speed data access and large storage capacity. Removal of a few screws on the base provides easy access to upgrade the RAM or storage devices without the need to disassemble the entire device.

Perfectly-balanced power
ASUS ExpertBook B1 features exclusive Intelligent Performance Boost technology to achieve the best laptop performance and agility by tuning the internal thermals. ASUS-exclusive algorithms combine with up to five smart sensors, an aerodynamic design and an up to 90-watt power supply to intelligently manage CPU performance. This empowers you to switch effortlessly between Performance, Balanced or Whisper modes — enabling you to get on with business while B1 handles power and performance in any scenario.

Freewheeling mobility
ASUS ExpertBook B1 is a thin and light business laptop, weighing as little as 1.73 kg7 — so it’s handy to carry anywhere. Just pick up and go!

A bigger window on your world
The narrow-bezel NanoEdge display features a frameless three-sided wide-view, with slim bezels that create a 90% screen-to-body ratio for incredibly immersive viewing experiences.

Next-level AI noise-canceling audio technology
With the increase of remote work and video conferences, we implemented the ASUS AI noise-canceling technology to ensure the best experience. The AI Noise-Canceling Mic feature in the MyASUS app effectively filters out unwanted ambient noise. There are two modes: Single-presenter mode allows the voice directly in front of the PC to be heard clearly; while Multi-presenter mode clarifies speech from different direction, ensuring optimum quality for group conference calls. The AI Noise-Canceling Speaker feature filters out all ambient noise apart from human speech — so you’ll hear what everyone else is saying.

Extensive, versatile connectivity
Connectivity is especially important in a business laptop to handle all workloads. ASUS ExpertBook B1 is packed with a comprehensive selection of I/O ports, including the industry-leading Intel® Thunderbolt™ 4 for lightning-fast, up to 40 Gbps data transfers, video output and fast-charge capability. It also has two USB 3.2 Gen 2 and a USB 2.0 Type-A, HDMI 2.0, Ethernet and a microSD card slot — so it’s primed and ready for the today’s remote-working paradigm. For enhanced reliability, the solidly constructed ports are test to endure over 10,000 insertions.

Multi-task with dual 4K displays
ASUS ExpertBook B1 helps you minimize the hassles and inconveniences of remote work. With both Thunderbolt 4 and HDMI 2.0 ports available, you’re free to connect up to two external 4K UHD displays. So, for example, you could host a video conference on B1’s own display while using two screens on either side to keep in view information that’s important to your call. The screen is also certified by TÜV Rheinland for low blue-light emissions, proving a more comfortable viewing experience that potentially helps to protect your eyes from damage.

Faster, more stable connections
With the latest WiFi 6 built in, ASUS ExpertBook B1 delivers faster-than-wired speeds of up to 2.4 Gbps, letting you enjoy smooth streaming of FHD online videos and large file transfers in seconds. There’s also ASUS WiFi Master Premium technology to help you automatically connect to the best WiFi signal, ensuring a rock-solid and stable connection wherever you are.

Strong data protection and privacy
ExpertBook B1 comes with a robust security system in place to ensure confidential and private data does not leak out. These include an integrated fingerprint sensor and physical webcam shield, plus TPM 2.0 to ensure attackers don’t get a behind the scenes to look at your private life. There’s even an integrated Kensington lock slot, making it quick and easy to secure your ExportBook B1.

Fingerprint-reading power button
ExpertBook B1 has built-in biometric security, with a fingerprint sensor that’s integrated into the power button. So, just tap the button to switch on and log in — no difficult-to-remember passwords or PIN required!

Solid construction
The chassis design incorporates features that provide extra structural rigidity to cope with the rigors of everyday use.

Military-grade toughness and build quality
Life on the road is tough, so ExpertBook B1 is designed to both meet and surpass exacting industry thresholds — including the ultra-demanding MIL-STD 810H US military standard. It’s built to survive every extreme, from freezing temperatures to the searing heat of desert storms, and high-speed shocks to everyday bumps. B1 also undergoes stringent in-house testing, including panel-pressure, shock and drop tests for an assurance of serious durability.
