ASUS Releases the All-New ZenBook 13 UX331 in Singapore

An ultra-light marvel
with high-performance discrete graphics chip in a stylish new design

Singapore (23 October 2017) —
ASUS today announced the all-new ZenBook 13 UX331, un ultra-thin and
lightweight laptop with discrete graphics. The ZenBook 13 UX331 finally breaks the performance barriers created by
the use of an integrated graphics system in an ultra-thin chassis. The ZenBook 13 UX331 features an NVIDIA® GeForce® MX150 discrete
graphics chip for the highest graphics performance, and is powered by the
latest 8th Generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor, up to a 512GB
SSD storage and a 16GB of RAM for a responsive computing experience on-the-go.

The
ultra-thin and ultra-light ZenBook 13
UX331 is a mere 13.9mm thin and weighs just 1.12kg[1], with the sophisticated and
elegant design values that are the hallmark of the multiple award-winning
ZenBook series. The ZenBook 13 UX331
is available in Royal Blue colour with a stunning crystal-like gloss coating,
featuring a tactile 2.5D-curved edges on the lid.

The
ZenBook 13 UX331 has a slim bezel
NanoEdge Full HD (1,980 x 1,080) wide-view display for immersive and life-like
visuals, and a Harman Kardon audio system for rich, clear stereo sound. The comprehensive
connectivity on the ZenBook 13 UX331 includes
a USB Gen 1 Type-C™ (USB-C™) port, two USB 3.1 Gen 1
Type-A ports, an HDMI port and a microSD card slot. The dual-band 802.11ac
Wi-Fi incorporates exclusive ASUS Wi-Fi Master technology for faster and more reliable
connections.

For the longest time, engineering
constraints in a thin and light form factor have resulted in compromised
graphics performance, by dictating the use of integrated graphics with shared
video memory. The ZenBook 13 UX331
breaks through this graphics performance barrier by incorporating a
high-performance NVIDIA® GeForce® MX150 discrete graphics
chip with dedicated video memory gives the ZenBook
13 UX331 effortless photo and video-editing capabilities and fast,
ultra-smooth gaming performance.

Designed for effortless
portability, the ZenBook 13 UX331 measures
just 13.9mm thin and 1.12kg light. It’s not just a superbly capable laptop — it
is also a powerful style statement. Its sleek and sophisticated profile is
finished in a classic Royal Blue colour with a luxurious crystal-like gloss
coating created using a high-tech nano-imprinted lithography (NIL) process.
Both options are further adorned with our iconic Zen-inspired spun-metal finish,
and the edges of the lid have a smooth 2.5D contour that is sleek, stylish and superbly
comfortable to hold.

As well as class-leading
graphics performance, the ZenBook 13
UX331 offers serious on-the-go computing power. At its heart is the latest
8th Generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor — which can be
boosted to 4GHz when needed — along with 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD for blazingly
fast storage. So whether is it creating mega-sized office documents,
manipulating high-resolution photos, editing HD video, or simply taking a break
with the most demanding games, the ZenBook
13 UX331 will never keep users waiting.

Designed for non-stop,
on-the-go lifestyles, ZenBook 13 UX331
offers the freedom of all-day battery life. A specially designed 50Wh
lithium-polymer battery gives the ZenBook
13 UX331 up to 14 hours[3]
of autonomy, with fast charge technology that takes just 49 minutes[4]
to recharge to 60% capacity.

To deliver immersive, life-like
visuals and provide the biggest screen in the least space, the ZenBook 13 UX331 has a beautiful
NanoEdge display, with an ultra-thin 6.86mm bezel that gives it an impressive
80% screen-to-body ratio. This 13.3-inch display fits in an ultra-compact
frame, giving the ZenBook 13 UX331 a
footprint smaller than many 13-inch models. Its 178° wide-view technology
ensures that image quality is not degraded when viewed at extreme angles, so it
is great for collaborating or entertaining. With its astonishing full HD
resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels, a pixel density of 332 pixels per inch and
wide 100% sRGB colour gamut, it delivers pin-sharp text, incredibly realistic
imagery and ensures vivid accurate colours.

The powerful Harman
Kardon-certified audio system in the ZenBook
13 UX331 features the next generation of ASUS SonicMaster technology. With
its tailored mix of superior hardware — including low-distortion
smart-amplifier technology that can boost volume by up to 3.5X — and cleverly
designed software, the ZenBook 13 UX331
delivers the ultimate audio experience.

For unrivalled on-the-go
productivity, the ZenBook 13 UX331 has
a full-size backlit ergonomic keyboard that optimised for comfort with 1.4mm
key travel. The Windows Precision Touchpad is engineered for maximum comfort
and accuracy, with a glass covering for a smooth control. It features
palm-rejection technology, supports multi-touch gestures and handwriting, and a
built-in fingerprint sensor that allows for a secure one-touch login via Windows
Hello.

The ZenBook 13 UX331 is equipped with the new, reversible USB 3.1 Gen 1
Type-C™ (USB-C™) port that delivers data transfer speeds
that are up to 10X faster than older USB 2.0 connections. There are also two
USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports, an HDMI port and a microSD card reader.

The ZenBook 13 UX331 introduces the new and exclusive ASUS Wi-Fi Master
technology, which reduces interference to ensure faster and more reliable dual-band
802.11ac Wi-Fi connections at extreme distances.[5]
With a top speed of 867Mbps, it is up to 6X faster than 802.11n[6]
for seamless video-streaming, smooth web-surfing and lag-free gaming.
