Asus ZenBook UX305CA Review

Hexus posted a review on the Asus ZenBook UX305CA

A quote from the article:
Thin, light and available for under £600. What's not to like? So what's the catch? Well, there are a couple of potential caveats worth knowing about. For starters, the latest-generation Intel Core processors typically come in two product lines; Core i3, i5 and i7, representing the performance end of the spectrum; and Core m3, m5 and m7, representing low-power parts for portable PCs. For the UX305CA, Asus is employing a dual-core, quad-thread Intel Core m3-6Y30, whose 0.9GHz base frequency and 2.2GHz boost suggests modest everyday performance.

On the flip side, the chip's ultra-low 4.5W TDP is what enables such a thin form factor, and for the price the UX305CA does look and feel very tidy. Concentric circles on the lid add an extra bit of flair, and a choice of three colour options - Obsidian Stone (pictured), Ceramic White or Aurora Metallic - provide plenty of choice. A weight of just 1.2kg makes it a highly versatile 13.3in solution, and the laptop is well positioned as an upgrade from a tablet device. Heck, the UX305CA is comfortably more affordable than a 12.9in iPad Pro.
