ZenBook 13: Discrete Graphics in an Ultrabook

Until now, engineering constraints in ultrathin laptop designs have resulted in compromised graphics performance, by dictating the use of integrated graphics with shared video memory. The ZenBook 13 breaks through this graphics performance barrier by incorporating a high-performance NVIDIA GeForce MX150 discrete graphics chip with dedicated video memory to give the ZenBook 13 effortless photo- and video-editing capabilities and fast, ultra-smooth gaming performance.

Designed for effortless portability, ZenBook 13 is just 13.9mm thin and 2.47 lbs. light. It's not just a superbly capable laptop — it's also a powerful style statement. Its sleek and sophisticated profile is finished in Royal Blue with a luxurious crystal-like gloss coating created using a high-tech nano-imprinted lithography (NIL) process. The ZenBook 13 is further adorned with our iconic Zen-inspired spun-metal finish, and the edges of the lid have a smooth 2.5D contour that's sleek, stylish and superbly comfortable to hold.

The Ultrapowerful Ultraportable

As well as class-leading graphics performance, the ZenBook 13 offers serious on-the-go computing power. At its heart is the latest 8th Generation Intel® Core™ i5 processor and 8GB RAM, along with a 256GB SSD for blazingly fast storage. So whether users are creating mega-sized office documents, manipulating high-resolution photos, editing HD video, or simply taking a break with the latest high-powered games, the ZenBook 13 will never keep them waiting.

Designed for non-stop, on-the-go lifestyles, the ZenBook 13 offers the freedom of all-day battery life. A specially designed 50Wh lithium-polymer battery features fast charge technology that takes just 49 minutes to recharge to 60% capacity.
