3 out of 5 stars   Bang for the buck, but has some flaws.
By Tony on October 10, 2013
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Asus Zenbook UX31A 13.3" Full HD Multi-Touch, Core I5-3317U, 4GB, 128GB SSD, Win. 8 (ASUX31ABHI5T11RB)
Pros: Good price, Good Ultrabook, Light Small Portable, Smal Light Portable
Cons: Touchpad Is Not Flushed, Indented On Right Side, Indented On The Right Sid, Hinges are weak
Other Comments: I use this ultrabook as a spare computer in the living room and also occasionally carry it around to other places. The ultrabook is nice and thin and light. It has a decent amount of battery life (not as long as others, but sufficient). It is plenty quick for checking emails, browsing the internet, and watching videos. I also used Photoshop and Illustrator on it a couple of times with no problem. Now for the cons: when I received this product, the touchpad is not flushed with the surface of the laptop. The left side of the touchpad is flushed, but the right side is indented below the surface, making it hard to right click. The hinges on this ultrabook is also very weak. If I open the ultrabook at certain angles, it would not be able to support the display and it would fall backwards. It would also fall back when I use the touchscreen to browse and navigation. I got the ultrabook refurbished and at a low price, so I can't really complain too much. I don't use it enough for these flaws to be a problem for me yet.

5 out of 5 stars   Awesome Mobile Machine!
By Cuberob on September 05, 2013
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Asus Zenbook UX31A 13.3" Full HD Multi-Touch, Core I5-3317U, 4GB, 128GB SSD, Win. 8 (ASUX31ABHI5T11RB)
Pros: Fast, very thin, Gorgeous display, Nice keyboard, Very light
Cons: Mediocre Game Performance, - 3 Hour Battery Life, 3 hour battery
Other Comments: I carry this laptop around with me everywhere. It is so thin and light it easily slips into my backpack. The windows performance is awesome and the resolution of the screen is amazing. I can easily do some programming while on the go. The battery however is so-so with about 3 hours of actual use. Also if you plan on doing a lot of gaming this machine is not for you, though it does run some a little older games just fine (borderlands 2 @ 1280x720 is very playable!)

5 out of 5 stars   Great Sleek Laptop
By Pelayoc on September 04, 2013
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Asus Zenbook UX31A 13.3" Full HD Multi-Touch, Core I5-3317U, 4GB, 128GB SSD, Win. 8 (ASUX31ABHI5T11RB)
Pros: Long Battery Life, Sleek, Touchscreen, Light and thin
Cons: Wireless reception, Finger prints
Other Comments: Very Pleased. Laptop has been great so far. Love that it boots up within 15 seconds. Love the 1080p touch screen. Love the sleek stylish design. Pleased with the battery life; lasts longer than expected. Have had trouble getting used to Windows 8 as a first time windows 8 user. But have noticed that over 50% percent of the time I am more comfortable using the touchscreen to navigate through the work space. I am definitely adapting to this new user experience and enjoying it. Laptop is prone to oily finger prints. Had the touchpad two finger scrolling feature stop responding, but after driver update the touchpad features work flawlessly. Have had wifi reception issues with my home network easily disconnects from my wireless G but not sure if this is normal and I just need to upgrade my outdated wireless router. The laptop does get warm when running videos or resource intensive programs but has not become a problem and its definitely not as hot as some of my previously owned laptops. In all, I am pleased with the product and purchase. Have received more than expected.

4 out of 5 stars   Great Little Computer
By TBil2 on September 04, 2013

Review submitted for Asus Zenbook UX31A 13.3" Full HD Multi-Touch, Core I5-3317U, 4GB, 128GB SSD, Win. 8 (ASUX31ABHI5T11RB)
Pros: backlit keypad, Responsive touchscreen, Long Battery Life, Sturdy design, large touchpad, Light, Compact Size
Cons: No Cddvd Disk Drives, Difficult 2 Back Up Win 8, small ssd drive, small fonts
Other Comments: Somewhat hard getting used to coming off a 15.6" laptop. But love using the touchscreen & touchpad. Light, but manageable. Win 8 takes some getting used to, but has some advantages. I'm told similar to a Macbook air! Have only used for web surfing, no apps or printers installed yet. Better than a tablet.

Details are very crisp making even small fonts easy to read. Can't imagine using Windows 8 without an HD touchscreen like this anymore.

5 out of 5 stars   A few headaches but love this Ultrabook.
By Chris on September 04, 2013

Review submitted for Asus Zenbook UX31A 13.3" Full HD Multi-Touch, Core I5-3317U, 4GB, 128GB SSD, Win. 8 (ASUX31ABHI5T11RB)
Pros: Capable Fast Machine, Ultra Lightweight, Awesome 1080p Display, Backlit keyboard
Cons: Fine-tuning Required
Other Comments: The BIOS menu was very dim the few times when I access it but looks normal now. Make sure to create a recovery disk before you do anything. I did that using a 16GB USB stick. Saves me a lot of headaches because I had to use it 3 times to reset the ultrabook. Without it I will be SOL. I happily use an external USB 3.0 hard disk to create a system image using the Windows 7 recovery through the control panel. Why they call it 7 when this is an 8 I don't know why.
