Asus Zenbook UX21E and UX31E - Ultrabooks for Windows - Watch the Video
 |
| Asus Zenbook UX31 |
Ultrabooks are the Windows answer to the Macbook Air and will set the standards for the next generation of notebooks. The incredibly thin new Asus Zenbook comes in two formats the Zenbook UX 21E (with either i3, i5 or i7 processor) and the Zenbook UX 31E (with either i5 or i7 processor).
It was clearly inspired by the Macbook Air but has better specs and sells for $200 less and is also an improvement on the Acer S3 ultrabook.
It would also make a great Christmas gift for some lucky person ! Maybe me? (But only if I buy myself one :-(.)
Engadget says "as stunning in person as it is in the press shots." It's arguably faster than the Macbook Air, and battery life is comparable. "It offers the highest-res display we've seen in an Ultrabook and the sound quality is disarmingly good. .... For now this is the Ultrabook to beat."
PCMag says "The Asus Zenbook UX31-RSL8 is the clear leader in the nascent ultrabook category, with better overall performance and battery life than any competitor. It also has a brilliant display, superb sound, and solid construction"
