The ASUS UX31E borrows the kind of stylings seen on Apple’s Macbook Air. It looks trendy and thin
Yet feels solid. This is one desirable bit of kit that any gadget fan would be proud to call their own. However its 13.3-inch screen gets one over on the MacBook Air with a higher 1600 x 900 resolution display. Look around and you’ll see you can get it at a cheaper price

Horrible trackpad
High-end specification isn't cheap
No different configuration options available
Screen appears slightly washed out at max brightness
Keyboard can be awkward for fast touchtyping
Lacklustre keyboard
No way to access access battery.
Poor webcam
Speakers lack power and make the chassis vibrate
Reduced connectivity
Adaptors required
Low gaming capacity
No backlit keyboard
Average display viewing angles
The keyboard feels hit and miss. The keys don’t have as much give as some would like
But anyone would soon get used to typing on it. However the trackpad fares less favorably
And is nowhere as smooth as the glass trackpads found on the MacBook Air. Battery life is not the best. At full charge in regular use the ASUS UX31E will keep going for around 5 hours. With other laptops just as thin offer
Shallow and imprecise keyboard
Jumpy trackpad (partially fixed on the newer models)
The Asus Zenbook UX31 has a unique "spun" aluminum look that we've not seen elsewhere in the market.Although we didn't manage to get our hands on it immediately after the launch in November 2011, reports regarding the UX31 came gushing in, mostly from dis...

Abstract: The ultrabook market just got more crowded with ASUS joining the party; the Taiwanese company officially jumped into the fray when it unveiled the super-thin Zenbook laptop here in Singapore on Tuesday.The Zenbook sports a differentiating design with some...
In terms of appearance, many users would feel that it is "the same" as the Apple MacBook Air. And yes, we also had the same sentiments in the beginning too, even when we had our actual testings and usage. Weight-wise, it cannot be compared to the TOSH...

Su diseño elegante y delgado (es una de las Ultrabook™ más delgadas del mercado)
Al tener un cuerpo tan delgado se sacrificó la cantidad de puertos
La ASUS Zenbook es una Ultrabook™ para los ejecutivos que quieran contar con un gadget rentable, portátil y con un diseño con muy buen gusto que les sirva como carta de presentación ante los clientes....

Su estructura súper delgada y peso insignificante (1.3 kg). Su procesador, que le da una velocidad sobresaliente en el manejo de aplicaciones
Sólo cuenta con un puerto USB 3.0 y el rendimiento de su batería no está por encima de las siete horas. Al ser una Ultrabook, no tiene unidad lectora de discos
Este modelo es para ejecutivos que viajan constantemente, su línea, rendimiento y portabilidad son los indicados para este tipo de usuarios....
A pesar de su tamaño, tiene múltiples puertos de conectividad; y aunque algunos requieren de adaptadores, éstos ya vienen incluidos
A la fecha no existe una Ultrabook™ con una unidad para discos y ésta no es la excepción, así que para instalar programas es más fácil si los compras y descargas en línea o si compras un reproductor de CD's y DVD's externo
Recomendada para ejecutivos que viajan mucho y tienen que llevar su trabajo a todas partes para poder presentarlo en cualquier momento. Esta Ultrabook™ es ultraportátil y tiene un muy buen desempeño....
Aunque es muy delgada, tiene puertos de todo tipo: dos USB y dos de video (que requieren adaptadores ya incluidos)
Por ser tan chica, no puede tener un reproductor de CD o DVD
Las Ultrabook™ realmente están pensadas para empresarios que viajan mucho y tienen que llevar su trabajo a todas partes para poderlo presentarlo en cualquier momento; esta Asus UX31E no es la excepción....
ASUS tiene el mejor ultrabook de esta generación. Le sigue de cerca, bajo mi punto de vista, el Toshiba Z830 pero ASUS ha sabido potenciar el formato casi al límite. Una gran pantalla, discos duros de máximo rendimiento, conectividad de calidad y un d...
