  • Splendido display 4K, notevole potenza di calcolo per il lavoro e per il gioco, design elegante, molte opzioni per la connettività
  • La configurazione top di gamma inevitabilmente costa
  • Alle specifiche elencate finora vanno aggiunte le tre porte USB 3.0 che è possibile impiegare per la ricarica dei dispositivi mobile anche quando il notebook è spento, lo slot Thunderbolt, quello per la lettura delle schede SD e l'uscita video HDMI per la...

  • Schermo 4K, grafica dedicata di fascia medio alta, buona qualità costruttiva, connettività accettabile, SSD veloce,
  • Per essere un ultrabook è un po' pesante, l'autonomia non è eccezionale, la qualità audio non è eccelsa, il prezzo non è a buon mercato,
  • L'Asus ZenBook Pro UX501JW è un ultrabook con schermo da 15,6 pollici elegante, con un design piacevole e prestazioni di buon livello. La durata della batteria non è eccezionale considerato che stiamo parlando di un ultrabook...

  • Mooi design, goed afgewerkt aluminium, Voelt lekker stevig en solide aan voor zijn dunne vorm, Lekker compact voor de high-end componenten die er in zitten, Start extreem snel op dankzij de M.2 SSD, Veel opslagruimte naast de SSD (1TB), IPS-scherm = mooie
  • Korte accuduur (2,5 - 4,5 uur, afhankelijk van wat je doet), Geen ethernet-aansluiting. ASUS levert hier een verloopstukje voor mee, Matige geluidskwaliteit (gebruik zelf altijd een koptelefoon, dus geen last van), Het IPS scherm is beter dan TN, maar wee
  • Dit is een zeer mooie, dunne, slanke, maar ook stevige ultrabook. Hij biedt high-end prestaties in een zeer compact en stijlvol jasje. Je hebt hiermee dus een echte alleskunner die je toch goed mee kunt nemen en waarmee je ook voor de dag durft te komen...

  • Snelle hardware, Relatief goede accuduur
  • Slechte beeldkwaliteit, Veel reflecties in het scherm, Matige bouwkwaliteit
  • Asus heeft ons vanaf de eerste Zenbook met Sandy Bridge-processor tot de Zenbook UX305 met Core M steeds laten zien laptops van goede kwaliteit met een onderscheidend uiterlijk te kunnen bouwen. De nieuwste uitbreiding in de vorm van de Zenbook Pro voelt...

  • De ASUS Zenbook UX501 is een mooie high-end laptop. De afwerking van de aluminiumbehuizing is netjes, het UHD beeldscherm laat een scherp - maar spiegelend - plaatje zien en de prestaties van het apparaat zijn dankzij de snelle Intel Core i7 4720HQ proc...
