ASUS Zenbook UX31E-XH72
ASUS Zenbook UX31E-XH72 ASUS Super Hybrid Engine II for 2-second resume and up to 2 weeks standby time Incredible 3mm at the front and 9mm at the rear Spun metal and hairline aluminum for incredible beauty ASUS exclusive Super Hybrid Engine II with instant on 2-second resume, four to five times the standby time, automatic data backup and recovery, and 25% longer battery life! SATA Revision 3.0 solid state drive and USB 3.0 incredible speed of data transfer rates SonicMaster technology co-developed with Bang & Olufsen ICEpower increases audio performance with lifelike surround impact The latest Intel Core processors

The ZENBOOKT uses a precision-crafted design measuring only 3mm at the front and 9mm at the rear. The form features razor thin edges and a curved center section, which is both practical and attractive – while accommodating the powerful computing components within, this design also looks totally unique. To accommodate so much powerful technology on a compact form factor, ASUS engineers have developed custom cooling and thermal designs that use a V-shaped air channel to increase air flow, as well as unique beryllium copper alloy components to better handle heat. While thinner and lighter than competing models, ASUS ZENBOOK™ is also more powerful, and runs at lower temps for increased longevity and reliability.
ASUS ZENBOOK keeps energy saving front and center with a dedicated Battery Saving Mode, which conserves power whenever possible to increase battery life by as much as 25%. ASUS ZENBOOK combines power, efficiency, smooth usage and user empowerment, all on in one sleek package.
ASUS is proud to deliver the world's first ultrabook with SATA 6Gb/s solid state storage, making for an amazingly smooth and fast computing experience. Additionally, all ASUS ZENBOOKT models ship with USB 3.0 as standard, multiplying the transfer rates of current USB 2.0 by as much as a factor of ten! Combined, SSD storage and USB 3.0 create incredible speed of data transfer rates.
Another ASUS exclusive, SonicMaster technology was co-developed with Bang & Olufsen ICEpower to deliver breathtaking, lifelike audio that far exceeds the limitations of conventional notebook PC sound performance. Deeper, more impactful and wider in range, SonicMaster delivers four times the sound output of other ultrabooks without increasing the size or weight of the form factor.
