ASUS ZenBook 3 Deluxe UX490 Laptop, Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, 14" Full HD

ASUS have taken the ZenBook 3 and made it even better. Featuring a beautiful 14" display in a compact and elegant chassis, the Zenbook 3 Deluxe provides a combination of power and good looks, perfectly balancing productivity with portability. Just 12.9mm thin and weighing only 1.1kg, ZenBook 3 Deluxe has everything you need for superb on-the-go performance, including a 7th Generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor, two USB Type-C™ (USB-C) ports with Thunderbolt™ 3 for dual 4K UHD display supports, and a powerful quad-speaker audio system.

Crafted to perfection
A masterpiece of craftsmanship, the Zenbook 3 Deluxe is encased in an all-aluminium chassis, carved from a single block of metal that goes through a 40-step process to create the distinctive spun-metal Zenbook finish. This is followed by a two-phase anodising process to create the elegant golden diamond-cut edges and golden ASUS lid logo. Combining aerospace-grade aluminium with a Corning® Gorilla® Glass 5 screen, Zenbook 3 Deluxe puts premium materials to fantastic use.

NanoEdge Display
The chassis of ZenBook 3 Deluxe is the size of many 13-inch laptops, but it features a full-HD 14" display. This is possible thanks to an ultra narrow 7.46mm wide screen bezel, allowing a class-leading screen to body ratio. The screen's wide viewing angle and realistic colour reproduction make it perfect for videos or text, with 100% sRGB colour gamut and 1000:1 contrast ratio for optimal images.

Built to perform
Zenbook 3 Deluxe combines a 7th Generation Intel® Core™ i5 processor with 8GB RAM and a speedy 256GB SSD. Keep connected with the latest Thunderbolt™ 3-enabled USB-C™ ports for up to 40 Gbps data transfers, compatible with dual 4K UHD external displays or external graphics dock support.

Keep your cool
An innovative new approach to laptop cooling keeps the Zenbook 3 Deluxe's high-end components running at optimal temperature. Featuring a liquid-crystal-polymer fan impeller that’s just 0.3mm thick and a copper-alloy heat pipe with walls that are a mere 0.1mm thick. This innovative cooling system is just 3mm high, and the warm air from the interior is gently expelled via hidden vents in the hinge.

All-day battery, charged in minutes
The Zenbook 3 Deluxe was designed with a battery that will see you through the working day. To achieve an up-to-9-hour battery life, ASUS designed a special high-capacity 46Wh lithium-polymer battery, shaped to fit precisely into an incredibly thin profile. The fast-charge technology allows charges of up to 60% capacity in just 49 minutes.

Keep in touch
The full-size backlit keyboard features a 1.2mm key travel, for comfortable and accurate tyyping. Paired with a precision touchpad that’s cleverly engineered for maximum comfort and accuracy, with a glass covering for smooth control, and incorporating palm-rejection technology, multi-touch gestures and handwriting support. The touchpad also incorporates a fingerprint sensor - with Windows Hello technology you can login with a single touch.
