Asus Zenbook 3 UX309UA

The Asus Zenbook 3 is one of the best ultrabooks we've seen this year, but it's also expensive. If you can afford it, and want the show-off value, this is one laptop to consider. However, the Dell XPS 13 and Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon are still more cost effective options.

If you're in the market for an ultraportable laptop you'll no doubt already have eyed up the 12in MacBook – but you may well have been unsure whether the low-power processor will meet your needs, or indeed unsure about switching to macOS. The ZenBook 3 makes a very interesting alternative.

Asus ZenBook 3 UX390UA-GS041T Notebook Review

Everything comes at a price. If you want super thin, you will have to waive ports – but not performance! After the throttling issues of the HP Spectre 13, the world's thinnest notebook, Asus can pull it off: Performance like a big system, but as thin as a fanless tablet.

Asus ZenBook 3 UX390UA

The ZenBook 3 has redefined the Ultrabook, with the lightest and thinnest Intel Core i-powered laptop on the planet. However, as you might expect, the compromises that are made when you shrink a laptop down are notable, but certainly not deal-breakers.

Asus ZenBook 3 UX390UA review

The Asus ZenBook 3 UX390UA is an extremely light laptop and one that doesn’t compromise performance or kill battery life as a result. It’s also more affordable than some of the alternatives, particularly in its entry-level spec. However, we’re not convinced about all the choices Asus has made. A single USB-C port won’t cut it for a lot of buyers, the ultra-slim keyboard isn’t great for long-form typing and the trackpad’s clicker mechanism has some real issues. The trackpad also seems a bit pointless when it’s reliability is mediocre, even if it’s down to Microsoft’s software. Its portability is just about unbeatable, but some of you may prefer the more accommodating style of the Dell XPS 13 or one of Asus’s cheaper ZenBook models

Very Good product

I highly recommmend buying this product as it is small and very powerfull for such a small laptop. The beautiful design stands out more to make this laptop more beautiful. It is very fast for such a small laptop.

Beware of Quality Issues!

After using this laptop for about four months, I feel I really need to write about it since I feel there's no one complaining about it yet... Maybe I am the only one experiencing these problems since I did buy it the day it became available on Newegg.

Amazing power in such a tiny package.

I bought this netbook for my younger brother for Christmas (He's 36 years old). He's had it for a little over a month now so I think it's safe to put in my review on his behalf. He mentions almost daily how fast it is, how good the touchpad is, how nice it is that it literally fits in an envelope...

The ZenBook lineup is Asus' premium tier of laptops, with the focus generally being on style and portability. Our last outing was with the ZenBook Flip UX360A , which turned out to be a surprisingly affordable 2-in-1 laptop with good performance and features.
