What Makes Zenbook 3 Special !
This 12.5-Inch ASUS ZenBook 3 UX390UA model features an elegant and sophisticated Silver Gray design, with the iconic ASUS logo surrounded by metal concentric circles, ultra-thin (0.47-inch) and ultra-light (2-pound or 910 Grams) anodized aluminum unibody construction with Core i7 2.7GHz, 16GB RAM 2133MHz, 512GB SSD hard drive, very nice screen and interesting quad-speaker audio configuration.
For comparison, note that the MacBook Pro 13” comes with a slower processor (without boosting given the absence of fan), slower RAM (i.e., 1600MHz), and if you want the same SSD capacity you’ll need over $1000 or RS.65,000
The price is definitely good considering the Specs
Build is Super Robust And It screams Premium
The fan on the Zenbook almost never starts (unless heavy computation is performed), and personally I consider it very quiet. Good quality of manufacturing and materials, with a very nice design. The only potential issue with the laptop could be due to the single USB-C port, but the laptop comes with a nice hub that is more than enough for my needs. Plus a very nice leather-like case
Keyboard is Super Comfortable to Type + The Fingerprint Scanner helps in Quick access to the Laptop
There is a Single USB Type-C Port for charging and Data Syncing ( As its a Premium Lightweight laptop The extra posts are not there But It can be expanded via a Dock )
Audio is Powered by Harman Kardon Which means Super crisp Audio Experience
Battery Life
The battery lasts from 5 to 6 hours, depending on the usage. This is the only point that you could not be 100% satisfied about. But given the form-factor and the power of this machine, really thinking about it I’m amazed on how they even reached that battery life. Disappointing integrated webcam, but I really do not care about it. because most laptops comes with a potato quality webcam, Â and if you care about it Get a Good webcam
Final VerdictÂ
If you are into Windows Usage and want Performance and portability you should surely give this laptop a look it won’t disappoint you for sure
