Title: Asus Zenbook UX303UB (Core i7-6500U, GeForce 940M) Subnotebook Review
Post by: Redaktion on January 01, 2016, 01:18:15
Compact all-rounder. The latest model from Asus' Zenbook UX 303 series is once again a thin and nice 13.3-inch notebook. It has a lot of performance, but is still quiet in operation. The battery runtimes are unfortunately shorter compared to previous Zenbook models.

Isn't it an mSata slot in the top right corner of the motherboard photo, above the HDD?

Nice review, thanks!
Can't help myself, but I always hear him saying "big butt bunny" in the video ;D

@Vlad
They meant that there used to be an empty half-sized mSata slot on the previous models, but this one doesn't have it. It used to be down and to the left of the left fan, where you can see some empty spaaace on the circuit board.

Since Skylake was supposed to be more frugal than Broadwell, is the shorter battery life due to the more intense Wifi-test?

Does it have a mini PCIe (mPCIe) slot. If it have one, could you take a picture of it  via the underside cover.

Hi,
For the same price, would you choose the UX303UB or the UX305UA ?

Hi,

I'm not an electrical engineer, but the reported response times seem abnormally high while looking at the oscilloscope's screenshots. The  83ms black/white rise time seems way off track to me. Could you please double check these values¿

Thanks

If this has the same panel as the LN, how come your benchmarks of the two are so wildly different?

I was read another great but short review at https://www.gadgettify.com/article/41 , but this review is more detailed but complex to understood for non technical people.

Any idea what the Wireless card on this thing is?   Does it just run the Intel on-board, or does it have an upgraded card?

Thank you!

Best asus product of the past years. It's even better than the new series ux330. Much quieter! Love the thing!
