ASUS Announces Zenbook UX303

Thin, light and powerful 13.3-inch ultraportable features refined new design and stylish new color, with Intel Core processors and discrete graphics for superb performance

ASUS today announced the sublime new Zenbook UX303, which heralds a new generation of the traditional Zenbook combination of elegance and power. With its stunning new thin and light design, fashionable Smoky Brown color, and classic Zenbook design detailing, UX303 is an Ultrabook™ with a difference. The high-performance 4th-generation up to Intel® Core™ i7 processors are teamed with dedicated up to NVIDIA® GeForce® GT840M graphics for silky-smooth performance, and the up to 3200 x 1800 QHD+ display amazes with its lifelike detail. ASUS SonicMaster audio, incorporating ICEpower®, Bang & Olufsen technology, also delights the ears with incredible sound.

Refined new shape, stylish new color

Zenbook has always been the epitome of stylish computing, and the thin and light UX303 takes this to a new level. The subtly-enhanced classic Zenbook design, with its signature spun-metal concentric circle finish, is now even sleeker and is perfectly complemented by the fashionable new Smoky Brown color.

Measuring an incredible 3mm thin at the front edge and tapering to just 9mm at the rear, the precision-crafted all-aluminum UX303 has razor-thin edges and a gently-curved profile that make it both practical and attractive.

A stunning visual experience

Zenbook UX303 is available with a state-of-the-art 13.3-inch QHD+ PLS (plane-to-line switching) touchscreen display that has an incredible resolution of 3200 x 1800 pixels and a pixel density of 275 pixels per inch (ppi), providing stunningly-crisp, vibrant and lifelike images. A special anti-glare coating reduces annoying reflections to ensure viewing comfort. The 300cd/m2 brightness and 770:1 contrast ratio give Zenbook UX303 outstanding clarity in any lighting conditions, and the high-fidelity touch actuators — which are more than twice as sensitive as the industry standard — provide ultra-responsive and precise touchscreen control for navigation or drawing.

Performance to spare

The Zenbook family is renowned for combining elegance with outstanding performance, and UX303 is no exception. At its heart is a powerful 4th-generation up to Intel Core i7 processor for seamless multitasking, complemented by dedicated desktop-grade NVIDIA GeForce GT840M graphics with 2GB of video RAM for stunning image quality and silky-smooth rendering of high-resolution videos or the latest games.

ASUS SonicMaster and AudioWizard for incredible sound

Zenbook UX303 features ASUS SonicMaster audio, incorporating ICEpower®, Bang and Olufsen technology, for crystal-clear vocals and deep, rich bass. To achieve its premium sound quality, UX303 uses high-quality 1.5W speakers with oval voice coils and oversize magnets. Combined with large resonant chambers and the aluminum chassis design, these produce remarkably powerful full-frequency sound.

Different sound sources need different audio settings, a task that is made incredibly easy with UX303’s exclusive AudioWizard. With five presets for different scenarios — music, movies, speech, gaming and recording — AudioWizard ensures that you always get the best possible sound, whatever you’re listening to.
