Solid ultraportable design, sharp and accurate display, and an impressive keyboard
No Thunderbolt 3, Kaby Lake R rather than Coffee Lake CPUs, middling battery life
For £1,000, the ZenBook UX430A offers a very palatable blend of ultraportable design with a healthy dollop of performance. It's pretty slim on foibles, especially given its competitive price, but at the same time, it offers a lovely screen and decent buil...
If you're looking for a thin and light laptop, the ZenBook offers a lot to win you over. It's eminently portable and manages to deliver a great user experience thanks to its excellent keyboard and trackpad. It's just a shame that the lid constantly looks...

The ASUS ZenBook UX430UA is a very enticing package. It looks great, offers decent performance for the components inside, and has competitive battery life. It's about the same size as the Dell XPS 13 9360, yet includes a slightly larger screen and the tap...

The Asus Zenbook UX430U is a great choice if you're looking for mid-range power, portability and good battery life. Admittedly it lacks more high-end features and the casing doesn't project a premium feel but what this machine does, it does well...

One of the best displays on the market, Colors with almost no deviation from the standards (when Gaming and Web design profile is present), Amazing battery life, Good keyboard with backlight, Fast CPU and GPU combination
The GeForce MX150 throttles aggressively at very high loads
ASUS has clearly produced a very good product. The improvement over the older UX410 is notable and it also stands well against the competition of models from other companies such as HP's EliteBook 850 G4, and Acer's Swift 3, and the lightweight champion t...
At just 2.91 pounds this laptop is very easy to take on the go and easily beats out any full sized laptops in this price range for weight, Not only is it lighter than your typical full sized laptop but gives you great battery life of up to 9 hours keeping
For those who have a large collection of files the smaller SSD drive and limited space of just 256 GB may not be enough to cover your needs, Only two USB ports are available with just one of these running the newer and faster USB 3.0 technology, Very bas
The Asus ZenBook UX430UA-BS51-CB is a great on the go laptop that is not going to disappoint you when it comes to performance. It may have its flaws like any other laptop on the market but they are minor and not a deal breaker for most consumers. Check ou...
