Reviews for the Asus Zenbook S UX391UA-EG007T

85% ASUS ZenBook S review: Simply a very good ultrabook
Source: Hardware Zone
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.
