Decent piece of kit but not a massive step up from the current model, at least as far as look and feel are concerned. Being the first out of the stalls with the Core M means that Asus could gather some momentum before rivals appear on the market....

Abstract: The mid-range notebook PC is usually more about compromise and price than spec or quality. Engineering a notebook to a specific price point isn't an easy task and some concessions to spec and build are inevitable.I was, however, pleasantly surprised by As...
Asus is pitching the UX305 as a Windows competitor to the admittedly more powerful MacBook Air. And it's done a good job. The Asus machine is cheaper, slimmer, lighter, more stylish and has more in the way of ports. Even if you set those qualities at noug...
Incredibly thin and light, Core M and an SSD work well together, Silent operation, Impressive battery life
Lafité is available for £150 less, No Ethernet port, Only 80GB SSD storage after Windows is installed

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 keyb...

Abstract: For a lot of people, when they hear the term “ultrabook” they think of Asus's ZenBook line. When the ZenBook UX301 launched it joined the ranks of Windows alternatives to compete with Apple's MacBook Air . Although Asus recently released a true successor ...
The premium-feeling yet affordably-priced Zenbook UX305 is a great success in my book. While it doesn't tick every box, and you can't expect it given the price with the imperfect screen and couple of rough edges. However, if you're looking for a nippy lit...
