Pricey
Touch pad feels overly slick
Just one built-in port (a USB Type-C)
Flaws? Geez
Where to begin? I hate the touchpad
Which tracks decently but which has mushy
Floppy buttons in the bottom corners. If you're not a taptoclick type
This alone is so frustrating it makes the machine a nogo. Even worse though is the keyboard
The 12.5-inch display is locked at 1
920x1
080 resolution
And it isn't a touchscreen. Lots of extra bloatware. Battery life isn't as good as the MacBook. Other similarly configured systems cost less
Only one USBC port is bad. Average battery life and keyboard.

The Zenbook 3 UX390UA is a stylish-looking (if you care for the blue/gold color scheme) and in use was quite responsive thanks to fast solid state storage and that Core i7 CPU, but it was not perfect. I must mention the fan noise again, as any time the CP...

Let's just say this upfront – the ASUS ZenBook 3 is the Windows-based answer to Apple's MacBook. It ticks most of the boxes, be it a premium and thin design language, or a gorgeous display… not to mention the powerful internals. However, that also puts...

very light and thin, compact dimensions, one-day runtime, sturdy but not completely torsion-resistant, performance without throttling, firm key stroke, ClickPad enables fast workflow, clear microphone recordings, reliable login via fingerprint, balanced
not many ports, unusable webcam, shallow key travel, limited feedback, weak ClickPad feedback, speakers without bass
The ZenBook 3 UX390UA-GS041T can easily secure a spot among the top subnotebooks – but at the lower end of the ranking. Apple's MacBook 12 (Early 2016), Dell's XPS 13 9360 QHD+ i7, and HP's EliteBook Folio G1 V1C37EA manage better overall ratings, but the...
