  • Poor battery life, Could do with more RAM, No larger SSD option, Tinny speakers, So very expensive
  • The Asus Zenbook Prime UX31A is a premium computer with a price tag to match. The build quality is excellent, the performance is great for an Ultrabook and the screen is top-notch. Sadly, the battery life makes you think twice about its good points when ...
