Maybe you’re traveling for a big March Madness watch party. Perhaps you’re headed off to sunnier climes to celebrate spring break. Or maybe there’s a big get-together on the horizon. Whatever your reason for traveling with friends and family, you need a way to keep everyone entertained – and the stack of dusty board games provided by your Airbnb host just isn’t going to cut it. Here’s a complete set of ultraportable ASUS gear that will make your next vacation unforgettable.
Drive it all with powerhouse devices from ASUS and ROG
Get your portable entertainment setup started with a powerful and travel-ready PC. The Zenbook 14 OLED is your perfect choice for light entertainment on the go. This ultra-thin laptop has a brilliant 3K OLED HDR display that delivers luscious visuals, and it offers plentiful performance with its Intel Core Ultra CPU and Intel Arc graphics.
Its ASUS Lumina OLED touchscreen is ideal for private viewing, but if you’re watching something with friends or family, you’ll want something bigger. The ZenScreen MB16AH makes it easy. This portable 15.6-inch display connects easily to the laptop with a USB Type-C cord, and it gives your crew a bright, colorful screen to gather around.
But perhaps you want to get some PC gaming in the mix. The ROG Ally is a portable gaming all-star, and it’s available at a great price. When you’re on a flight or chilling in the back seat during a road trip, it’ll give you hours of entertainment with your favorite PC games. At your hotel room or vacation house, it’ll easily connect to a TV for a big-screen gaming experience that everyone can get in on. Click here for a quick guide on how to connect the Ally to a TV or monitor.
For a complete gaming experience that travels, there’s no better choice than an ROG Zephyrus laptop. These thin-and-light machines use our most innovative chassis and cooling designs to give you breathtaking PC gaming experiences no matter where you go. The 2024 Zephyrus G16 boasts a CNC-machined chassis, the latest high-performance components from Intel and NVIDIA, and a lightning-quick OLED display with NVIDIA G-SYNC. It’ll elevate your game when you’re on the move – and you’ll love it when you return home, too.

Put it all up on a big screen with the ZenBeam L2 portable projector
Not every vacation destination has a large TV ready and waiting for you. But you can enjoy a big-screen experience just about anywhere with the ZenBeam L2 portable projector.
This versatile projector gives you a bright 960 LED lumens output at a Full HD native resolution, and its short-throw lens can project a spacious 40-inch image from only three feet away. Unlike many standard projectors, the ZenBeam L2 features automatic geometric corrections, focus adjustments, and obstacle avoidance, so setup is a breeze. Just point it at your projection surface, let the L2 work its magic, and you’ll have a pristine image to enjoy.
All this, and the ZenBeam L2 doesn’t even need a nearby outlet. This portable unit has a battery that’s good for 3.5 hours of projection*. Connect a device using its USB Type-C port, HDMI port, or built-in wireless Chromecast support, and you’re ready to entertain a crowd.

Connect your entire crew with the ASUS RT-AX57 Go
When you’re traveling with many devices, it can be a bit of a pain to keep them all connected, especially if you’re with a group of friends and family. And that’s assuming you even have secure internet connections available. When you have to make judgment calls about which public WiFi networks look the most trustworthy, it can be even more of a hassle to get everyone online.
Here’s an easier solution: the ASUS RT-AX57 Go travel router. This slim and lightweight dual-band WiFi 6 router gives you multiple options for getting all your devices connected. It lets you share your smartphone’s 4G/5G connection with all your devices, even the ones without a mobile data connection of their own. Public WiFi mode establishes a secure network for your personal devices. And when you’re back at home, you can use it as an AiMesh node with a compatible router or mesh WiFi system.

Travel-ready gaming peripherals
Your PC gaming setup isn’t complete without your set of trusted peripherals. ROG makes it easy to game on the go with keyboards, mice, and headphones that deliver the performance and precision that you demand in designs that fit into your travel bag without a fuss.
The ROG Cetra True Wireless SpeedNova gaming headphones give you immersive audio anywhere. Connect them via ROG SpeedNova 2.4 GHz wireless technology for ultra-low latency as you game, or use Bluetooth to easily connect them to a wide range of devices – it’s up to you. Adaptive ANC lets you tune out the noise as you travel, and Bone-Conduction AI Microphones ensure that your squad can hear you clearly as you strategize over Discord.
The ROG Falchion RX Low Profile gives you unbeatable typing feel and precision in an ultra-compact, ultraportable design. This 65% keyboard masterfully incorporates arrow and navigation keys while keeping a slim and small profile that leaves plenty of desktop space for your mousing hand. New for the latest Falchion are our new ROG RX Low-Profile Optical switches. With their shorter actuation points and travel distance, these switches not only offer a light-speed trigger response, but also a shorter overall profile for the keyboard.
That makes it our most portable gaming keyboard yet – and we include a protective cover in the box so that you can easily make the Falchion a part of your travel kit.
Finally, let’s complete your setup with a lightweight, highly portable gaming mouse: the ROG Keris Wireless. As one of our smallest and most lightweight mice, it’s an easy addition to your laptop bag. It gives you two wireless options for connecting to your gear, and wired USB lets you fast-charge without missing a moment of the action.
