The specification offered by this Ultrabook are very special. One of them is the storage system that uses a 128GB SSD with SandForce controller. The controller was shown to be superior than ordinary controller that makes the process of reading and writing to the SSD becomes faster. The process of booting Windows 7 became very fast thanks to this SSD. To open an application that is installed on the SSD is also a very fast. In addition, SSD is also resistant to vibration to minimize storage damage if shocks when traveling.

When you open this Asus Zenbook UX31 Ultrabook, you will see a very beautiful design. You will see a mix of silver and black color that looks very attractive. Chiclet keyboard have a large size and feels soft when used. Unfortunately this product is not equipped with a backlit keyboard. Surely if any, it will be a perfect Ultrabook. Trackpad has a large space, so your fingers can move freely while performing multi-touch movement.

Thin, and light is the main attraction for Ultrabook class. Not only that, the performance offered by Asus UX31 Ultrabook is also high class thanks to SSDs with SandForce controller so that the upper-middle applications can run smoothly. Battery life is also quite satisfactory, but we recommend that you still carry the charger in the bag. Although it uses the Intel GMA graphics, but is still capable enough to play 3D games at a certain resolution and a specific setting.

In addition, these notebook are also supported by an excellent sound system from Bang & Olufsen ICEpower to deliver breathtaking, lifelike audio that far exceeds the limitations of conventional notebook PC sound performance. Deeper, more impactful and wider in range, SonicMaster delivers four times the sound output of other ultrabooks without increasing the size or weight of the form factor.
