Title: Asus ZenBook 13 UX331UN (i7-8550U, MX150) Laptop Review
Post by: Redaktion on January 11, 2018, 23:53:48
Portable all-rounder. Ultrabooks like the Dell XPS 13 are selling like hotcakes, and every OEM wants a piece of the pie. Asus's candidate of choice is the ZenBook UX331UN, a high-quality subnotebook with a dedicated GPU. Read our extensive review to find out why it deserves a recommendation.

Big top and bottom bezels. Need to me more compact for 13 inch, get it to near XPS dimensions if you are competing in that price range. Thats why people want 13 inch.
No Nvme, average battery.

Would have overlooked these if it had AMD CPU
