Asus ZenBook UX305CA

The Asus ZenBook UX305 was my second favourite laptop of 2015, only losing out to the slightly more powerful Dell XPS 13 (2015). Its combination of stylish, premium design, excellent screen quality and exceptional battery life made it quite the bargain...

Asus Zenbook UX305

The Asus UX305 is quite simply one of the most exciting laptops we've seen in years. It continues Asus' long line of Zenbook ultrabooks, but really sets itself apart by bringing the same level of build quality and design we've come to expect, at a...

Incredibly thin and light ; Phenomenal battery life ; Good 1080p screen ; Exceptional value ; Beautifully made

Performance is compromised ; Trackpad isn't the best ; No keyboard backlighting

Asus ZenBook X305

First Look from IFA 2014: A slim and light ultrabook with a stunning screen

But with that caveat navigated, it's clear Asus has produced another fine ultrabook that should please any laptop buyer. It also gets extra brownie points for offering a non-touch, non-glare option. The screen looks better for it.

Asus ZenBook 3 review

Svelte, portable, powerful

Crystal clear display ; Lightweight and very portable ; Reliable fingerprint sensor

Weird fingerprint sensor placement ; A single USB-C port

The Zenbook 3 looks the part of a slick and powerful ultra-portable laptop, only with a mushy keyboard and odd fingerprint sensor placement.

Asus ZenBook UX305 review

A most affordable and excellent Ultrabook keeps its streak

Incredibly thin and light ; Vibrant, glare-free screen ; Excellent keyboard and trackpad

Weak sauce graphics ; Tinny speakers

Call it a MacBook Air knock off all you want, the Asus ZenBook UX305 remains one of the best and most affordable Ultrabooks on the shelf.

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

Great screen ; Really lightweight ; Good-looking design

Poor trackpad ; Just shy of all-day battery life ; Expensive

The Asus ZenBook 3 is one of the slimmest, lightest, most like-a-MacBook-but-not-a-MacBook Windows laptops you'll find.

Asus Zenbook UX305 review: King of the mid-range

The mid-range laptop market tends to be a sea of nondescript plastic. Who knows, perhaps that's an incentive to spend more cash for something a little more luxe. Not so with the Acer Zenbook UX305, however, which could well be the new poster boy for...

Metal build quality, super-slim design (more so than a MacBook Air), decent screen for a balanced price point, ample performance for the price

No backlit keyboard, no touchscreen, fiddly to open, lacks power of pricier models (as expected), no MS Office

The Asus Zenbook UX305 is certainly in the running for king of the mid-range laptops. Of course there are more powerful and feature-heavy laptops out there, but at this £649 price point, with its Full HD 13.3-inch screen, metal build, full size...

Asus ZenBook 3 review

When is a MacBook not a MacBook? There's a long history of PC makers selling computers that have a striking resemblance to one of Apple's laptops. Sometimes this is in the form of a subtle homage, other times, it's a literal attack of the clones. We'd...

Powerful Core i7 processor in a slim, portable package with an excellent touchpad. A helpful USB-C mini-dock is included.

The 12.5-inch display is locked at 1,920x1,080 resolution, and it isn't a touchscreen. Lots of extra bloatware. Battery life isn't as good as the MacBook. Other similarly configured systems cost less.

The Asus ZenBook 3 mimics many of the best features of Apple's 12-inch MacBook, but in a Windows version with a more powerful processor.

Asus ZenBook UX305CA review

If you're after an ultraportable laptop with all-day battery life and a high-resolution screen, it's hard to beat the new Zenbook. Here's our Asus ZenBook UX305CA review

The Asus ZenBook UX305CA is a sensible, perhaps predictable upgrade to the UX305 we looked at last year. It has newer CPU, and a much higher-resolution screen. However, it remains a seriously portable, expensive-feeling laptop that really isn’t that...
