Luxurious and powerful, the new ZenBook Asus has everything to please. Asus unveils its new ZenBook 3, a computer that stands out not only for its technical features but also for its prestigious design.

Presented for the first time at Computex 2016, the new Asus ZenBook 3 finally arrives in France. This 12.5-inch laptop is one of the most prestigious laptops on the market.

Moreover, during the presentation, Jonney Shih, president of Asus, clearly announced that its direct competitor would be Apple’s MacBook. Its design and performance have nothing to envy the toy of the Apple brand.

The main features of the new ZenBook 3

On the specification side, everything is almost there. The 12.5-inch Full HD display comes with Gorilla Glass 4 protection. The 40-mah battery promises 9 hours of battery life.

Under the hood of the new ZenBook 3 , there is a Core i5 or Core i7-6500U processor in its most powerful model with 4 or 16 GB LPDDR3 RAM at 2 133MHz. On the storage side, you have the choice between 256 GB, 512 GB, or 1 TB in SSD PCIe 3.0. The whole ensuring a very good level of fluidity under Windows 10.

A beautiful computer

If it has everything to please “inside”, the new ultra-portable of Asus is equally attractive “outside”. Its impeccable design immediately attracts attention. With its hull made of a brushed aluminum alloy of aerospace quality, the ZenBook 3 has a smooth and pleasant feel.

When you open the camera, you will see a screen with extremely low margins and a very bright display. For a design constraint, the designers chose to provide gray keys with a 0.8 mm stroke. This may sound a little light, but it is much better than the MacBook.

The new Asus laptop is not just a nice face

Beyond its beautiful mouth, the ZenBook 3 can also rely on its finesse and its weight. With its 13 mm thickness and 910 g on the scale, it is one of the smallest portable computers in the world. Hence, a connection limited to a single type-C USB port serving both for data transfer and recharging.

With all these features, we understand why Asus calls its ZenBook 3 laptop “the most prestigious in the world”. Especially since its price is also very attractive: count 999 dollars s for this jewel in its basic configuration with a Core i5, 4 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage.
