Asus Zenbook 3 UX390UA-GS041T Core i5-7200U 512GB 12.5in

Gorgeous, small and powerful but with a big Aussie price hike

It doesn't take much playing with the Zenbook 3 before you want one. But it's worth inspecting it beneath the surface before parting with your cash - not least because the price in Australia is $400 more than in the US. And you get half as much RAM. Nonetheless...

Asus ZenBook 3 Review

Laptop manufacturers are still striving for the thinnest and lightest products they can develop. Apple has been the leader in this market for some time, producing high quality designs like the MacBook, but over the past year we've seen PC manufacturers join the party in a significant way.

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.

No touch screen.. primitive

I want a new laptop and I want an ASUS just not this one

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

Asus ZenBook 3 review: A super-thin MacBook killer?

Where Apple goes, others follow. The Asus ZenBook 3 is this effect in action, taking the much-loved ZenBook design, removing most of the ports and squashing down the keyboard. Not all of the design changes work that well, but this little laptop is at least incredibly light.

Asus ZenBook 3 UX390UA review

Undercutting Apple is one thing, but compromising on keyboard, trackpad and screen is quite another. Asus has designed a beautiful laptop, but it's not without its flaws. Here's our Asus ZenBook 3 UX390UA review

false battery information

It has many good things but One of my reason I was bought this laptop was it's battery capacity. It was described as it is going to work up to 9 hour if fully charged but it's not for real. It may work 2 hour . I will be seeing it for couple of days and returning it to if not improved.

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.

I bought this for my partner at her request. While it is really light, and the screen is excellent there are 2 related drawbacks so big that it's barely getting used : The only USB port is a USB-C port used for charging.
