  • I like this laptop. I don't think I'd ever tire of looking at the gorgeous burgundy finish and golden key backlights; it's a classy combination. It also offers all the power I need from a serious, workhorse laptop. I can live with the lower specification...

  • Slim, stylish design, Decent CPU speeds, Ergonomic raised keyboard
  • Subpar display, Severe lack of ports, Flawed touchpad design, Gets too hot to use on lap
  • Although the Asus ZenBook S is speedy enough to satisfy, and it looks the absolute business, there are too many flaws to recommend it, including a disappointing screen and some serious thermal issues...

  • Subtly stylish and durable and with strong performance to back it up, the Asus ZenBook S UX391U is a fine ultraportable if you spend more time working in coffee shops than an office...

  • Impressive keyboard and touchpad, Quality customizable audio
  • Shorter battery life than competition, Runs hot despite elevating hinge
  • The ZenBook S delivers a few surprises with its winning keyboard and touchpad and elevating hinge. Although a couple of competitors fared better in almost every performance benchmark, the ZenBook S still performed solidly with typical workloads.7/10$1,499...

  • ErgoLift Hinge enhances comfort, cooling and sound, Nearly bezel-less display, Reasonable starting price
  • ErgoLift Hinge isn't completely unique
  • The Asus ZenBook S isn't the world's thinnest, most affordable or even a 100% uniquely designed laptop, but it still looks like the Ultrabook to treat yourself with right now...

  • The ZenBook UX391UA is one of the best 13-inch ultraportables on the market right now. It's thin, light, ergonomic and performs flawlessly, which is truly surprising given the size. This model builds on the previous ZenBooks and addresses most of their is...

  • Premium style and build quality, Quadcore CPU, Windows Hello support, Angled keyboard is comfortable to type on
  • Belowaverage battery life, Downwardfiring speakers lack volume and quality, Gets a little warm under load
  • The ZenBook S is a good laptop, but it's far from ASUS's best. The 4K model costs around $1,500, which isn't the highest you'll pay for a laptop of this level of hardware by any stretch. But it's let down by the sub-par battery life and the sometimes unco...

  • Thin and light Powerful enough for all the but the most demanding tasks, Hinge designed for improved cooling, Comfortable keyboard despite the thin frame, Stylish design
  • Mediocre real-world battery life, Lid is a fingerprint magnet, 1080p screen is just OK, Trackpad feels cramped
  • As much as companies like to hype up tablets, 2-in-1s and convertibles as the future of computing, there will always be customers who want a basic, reliable laptop. The ZenBook S fits the bill -- it's not the best Windows laptop, nor the most well-rounded...
