If your ASUS ZenBook 15 UX535 has a broken screen, will not charge, runs hot or will not start, we can diagnose and repair it at our Bermondsey workshop. It is a 15.6-inch laptop from 2021. The SSD can be replaced but the memory is soldered, so storage is the only upgrade.

Repairs we carry out on the ASUS ZenBook 15 UX535
Screen replacement
A broken 15.6-inch screen is replaced with a panel of the same resolution and finish. We check the display cable while the lid is open.
Price confirmed before work starts
Battery replacement
We replace the internal battery and check the charging circuit and adapter at the same time. At this age, short runtime and sudden shutdowns usually point to a worn battery and not a board fault.

Charging port and power repair
Depending on the configuration this charges through a round socket, USB-C or both. We test the adapter, the port and the charging circuit to find which has failed.
SSD and storage upgrade
The ASUS ZenBook 15 UX535 takes an M.2 SSD. We clone the existing drive to a larger one so Windows, programs and files carry over unchanged.

Memory
Memory in the ASUS ZenBook 15 UX535 is soldered and cannot be upgraded. It is worth knowing this before paying anyone for a memory upgrade.
Windows repair and reinstall
The ASUS ZenBook 15 UX535 meets Microsoft’s Windows 11 requirements in most configurations. We upgrade from Windows 10, which reached end of support in October 2025, or reinstall Windows 11 cleanly with your files kept.
We also carry out keyboard and trackpad repair, motherboard repair, liquid damage repair, overheating and fan repair, hinge and casing repair, virus removal on the ASUS ZenBook 15 UX535, along with USB, HDMI and audio port repair, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card replacement, webcam and speaker faults, BIOS password removal with proof of ownership and data transfer to a new machine.
Notes from the workshop
- OLED panels are replaced like-for-like; they are sensitive to pressure, so lid and hinge damage often takes the screen with it.
- USB-C charging faults are a common board repair on recent generations.
- ZenBook memory is soldered on most models, and the keyboard is part of the top case.
Data recovery from the ASUS ZenBook 15 UX535
The SSD in the ASUS ZenBook 15 UX535 can be removed and imaged on our own equipment, so files can usually be recovered even when the machine will not start. Recent Windows machines often have device encryption or BitLocker switched on. If so we will need the recovery key, which is normally saved in your Microsoft account.
