Asus UX21 and UX31 Zenbook to Reach Europe in November

Rabu, 12 Oktober 2011

Recently launched by the notebook maker in the US, Asus UX21 and UX31 Ultrabooks won't become available in Europe until November of this year and their starting price will be set at 999 Euros.

In the US, Asus has said that its two Ultrabooks will reach retail today, but a quick Google search and e-tailer scan hasn't managed to find any of these notebooks on sale.

The main difference between the UX21 and UX31 ZenBook is the diagonal of the screen used, as the first one carries a 12.1-inch display while the latter is slightly larger measuring 13.3-inch (1600x900 resolution).

Despite this difference, both designs use a thin and light anodized aluminum uni-body chassis that measures no more than 17mm at its thickest point, with an all-aluminum keyboard and glass touchpad, which were designed to accentuate the style of the unit.

At the heart of both of these laptops stand ULV Intel Core processors from the i5 and i7 ranges, which can be paired with 128GB or 256GB solid state drives, stereo speakers with Bang and Olufsen's ICEpower technology, and various connectivity options including Bluetooth, WiFi and USB 3.0.

In addition to the powerful hardware, Asus' Ultrabooks are also tweaked to resume from a sleep state in less than two seconds.

Battery run time is estimated at five hours for the Zenbook UX21, while its older brother can go up to seven hours without requiring a recharge.

Just like in the US, Asus European customers will have five Zenbook models to choose from, two UX21 and three UX31, with prices starting at 999 Euros (in US the cheapest Zenbook is priced at $999).

What's interesting to note is that in Europe both the UX21-KX400V and the UX31E-RY009V can be had for 999 Euros, while in the US users have to pay $100 extra for the UX31. (via Ultrabook News)
