Right now you cannot find an ultrabook that crams specs like this into a body this small, and the S13 does it all while under-cutting most of the market on price. That’s not even mentioning the reverse notch, which keeps the bezels slim while providing a handy lip for opening the laptop.
The silver finish might be a bit bling and the trackpad isn’t the best, but those are minor complaints. If you can afford to drop a grand and a half and want discrete graphics in an ultra-portable package, the S13 is a very easy recommendation.

I've gotten my hands on the vast majority of ZenBooks over the years, and the ZenBook S13 UX392 is Asus's best ultrabook to date. It's not perfect and is also not for everyone, but it pushes the industry forward with its design, build quality and features. That's why, if you're in the market for a premium built compact laptop with a great screen, fast keyboard, and the performance to handle everyday chores, demanding tasks and some games at the end of the work-day, this is one of the better-value options out there.

With a bezel-less screen unlike anything you’ve seen and packing more hardware than most other Ultrabooks, the Asus ZenBook S13 is a unique machine worthy of your attention
