The narrow-bezel Asus ZenBook UX391 will now be even narrower with the ZenBook UX392. Asus is promising a lighter and faster GeForce-powered Ultrabook than the Dell XPS 13 while offering a larger 13.9-inch display.

Remind me why it's stuck with LPDDR3 again? I thought LPDDR5 was right around the corner?

First, it's asus. Second it's intel so why not. So both want to throw away lddr3 from stock or its just cheaper

According to the spec sheet on the Asus website, the computer is
12.44x7.67=95.41 sq inches.
The screen is 16:9 with a diagonal of 13.9 inches, so the screen has an area of 82.56 sq inches.
The ratio is 82.56/95.41=87% NOT 97%!

Actually they intend for the extra strip that sinks below the keyboard plane to be excluded from calculation.

Seems that SSD is limited by PCIe x2 lanes and not even NVMe but AHCI, and the MX150 is the slower 1D12 "Max-Q" variant, according to UltrabookReview.com.

You don't care if it's the slower or faster mx150. Anyway the faster mx150 will be throttled to 1GHz just like the slower one. I know I have an Asus  laptop with a GX150

@S. Yu. Why not exclude everything from the "body" except the screen --- that way they can get 100%. Their claim is lie, which you repeated in your headline. Shame on you.

I didn't write the article, you couldn't even tell that much?

Just got mine 2 days ago. Bought it to substitute my oldie asus K450. Expensive at 1800€ but I think it is worth it.
I carry my laptop everyday, so portability is important.
comparing the Asus 433 at 1400€ (wich I wanted at first) I found it was worth the 400€ difference and invest in a laptop that will give good performance for a (hopefully) longer time.
Software like Blender, runs smoothly. The fan is quiet and rarely speeds up.
besides, it is very beautiful and the notch gives it a nice look. many people don't like it but I actually do and it is a great help to easily open the lid.
