80% ASUS ZenBook Pro UX550 review: More premium business notebook than gaming machine
Source: Hardware Zone Archive.org version
If you’re looking simply for a gaming machine, look elsewhere. But if what you want is a powerful laptop for work, the ZenBook Pro certainly deserves your consideration. And should you really want to play more far more demanding games on it, it’ll also work with the ASUS ROG XG Station 2 external graphics dock.

ASUS ZenBook Pro UX550VE Review
Source: Yugatech Archive.org version
The ZenBook Pro UX550VE is certainly an interesting device and lived-up to the hype it created to some degree. If users can look past ASUS’ mistake on the cooling system and the port positioning then they would be greeted by an amazing laptop with an elegant design, powerful internals, immersive speakers, rock-solid build, stellar battery life, beautiful display, and excellent keyboard. Truth be told, the pros of the device actually outweigh its cons. The biggest problem consumers will face, however, is the notebook’s price, which starts at a staggering Php 104,995. Either way, ASUS did a good job in making the ZenBook Pro UX550VE a powerful yet slim device.
