5 out of 5 stars   Great deal
By SnottyBubbles on April 23, 2015
Review submitted for Asus UX31A 13.3" HD Zenbook Core I5-3317U, 4GB, 128GB SSD - Factory Refurbished Deal (ASUX31AR5102HRB)
Pros: The Zen delivers a "Wow!" with it's thin, compact, advanced appearance. It's always been expensive and so rarely seen in the general user domain. Your best chance to see one is on an airplane in use by consultants and exec's working spreadsheets or solitaire. It's fast on boot-up with the SSD. Incredibly faster in comparison to a HDD.
Cons: Follow the instructions even if you know better. The one size fits all software load on this refurb is colossal. It's an Intel processor, but you have the software loaded in SSD for an AMD, a HDD, and every sort of Asus product line used devices. Following the first boot instructions to the letter removes the unnecessary software on system detect. If you don't follow the instructions on first boot, you will quickly discover that SSD is 'full'.
Other Comments: First, I prefer refurbs over new and here's why. New is automatic tested, red light/green light ... ship. Factory new production yields determine profitability. Factory yields are 'improved' by opening automatic testing parameters after carefully considered empirical logic that rarely, if ever are considered within a worst-case total system tolerance stack up. The human touch in a new laptop is measured in a handful of seconds. Refurbs get the attention of a living human technician. Tolerance stack up issues are more observable by the technician and corrected.

4 out of 5 stars   Great value and amazingly thin

Review submitted for Asus UX31A 13.3" HD Zenbook Core I5-3317U, 4GB, 128GB SSD - Factory Refurbished Deal (ASUX31AR5102HRB)
Pros: Thin, Fast boot, Portable, Quiet
Cons: Small SSD
Other Comments: If thin is what you are looking for, this hits the spot. As a Windows 7 machine, the price is hard to beat for the specs included. Compared to the higher priced ultrabooks, the screen probably isn't as nice and the processor is quickly becoming outdated. However, performance is great with a quick boot and quiet operation.
