Is it ASUS ZENBOOK UX another MacBook Air clone? Or it is different and add something new or innovative? We can do a MacBook Air versus ASUS ZENBOOK UX comparison and choose a Windows notebook over a OS X Lion notebook?
ASUS try to keep the secret over ZENBOOK like Apple was doing all the time. They cannot keep the secret as only the name was really unknown, because the UX was presented at CeBit in this summer.
The silver exterior panel features a concentric circle design around the ASUS logo. With a thickness of 0.11†at the front and 0.35†at the rear, the ZENBOOK is the thinnest Ultrabook on the market as ASUS declare.
The ZENBOOK is designed with an instant-on feature that resumes the system in about 2 seconds and features standby times up to 2 weeks.It features the latest Intel 2nd generation Core processors (optimized for mobile use), SATA Revision 3.0 solid state storage (SSD), Bluetooth V4.0 and USB 3.0.
The ZENBOOK will be available for order in North America starting on Oct. 12, with prices starting at $999: UX21 at Amazon US and UX31 at Amazon US
