Reviews for the Asus Zenbook S UX391UA-EG007T

85% ASUS ZenBook S review: Simply a very good ultrabook
Source: Hardware Zone English Archive.org version
Finally, while it’s great to have a compact, lightweight chassis, good battery life in balance with no compromise productivity performance is what really separates excellent ultrabooks from the merely good. You want an ultraportable machine because you want to be able to use it easily on the road, and you can’t really do that if it isn’t going to last you a good amount of time. Fortunately, the ZenBook S serves up decent battery life, coming in only slightly behind the Dell XPS 13.

The Asus ZenBook S is a slim and stylish Ultrabook that’s high on performance and ergonomics but limited on port availability and battery life. It’s the laptop to get if you have no problems living the dongle life.

Intel UHD Graphics 620: Integrated GPU (GT2, 24 EUs) found on some Kaby-Lake-Refresh CPU models (15 W ULV series). Technically identical to the previous Kaby-Lake GPU called HD Graphics 620.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


i5-8550U: Kaby-Lake-Refresh based low power quad-core processor. The four cores are clocked between 1.8 and 4 GHz (Turbo Boost) and support HyperThreading. The integrated GPU is clocked between 300 and 1,150 MHz. The SoC is manufactured in a 14nm+ FinFET process.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

Customer satisfaction with ASUS notebooks concerns performance, the features, and the good price-performance ratio of ASUS notebooks. However, as with any brand, there are occasional reports of problems such as overheating, driver compatibility, or build quality issues.


77.75%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
