Lisa Gade reviews the incredibly small and light Asus ZenBook 3 UX390UA that directly competes with the 12” MacBook, and indirectly competes with the Dell XPS 13 and Razer Blade Stealth. At 2.09 lbs. (910g) and 11.9mm (0.47”), it's actually slightly smaller and thinner than the MacBook, yet it packs more power with Intel 7th generation Kaby Lake Intel Core i5-7200U and Core i7-7500U dual core 15 watt CPUs with Intel HD 620 graphics. The ZenBook has a rigid aluminum chassis that's available in silver, rose gold and royal blue (all with gold accents).
The laptop has one USB-C 3.1 gen.1 port and a 3.5mm audio jack. The $1,099 Core i5 model comes with 8 gigs of RAM and a 256 gig SSD and the $,599 Core i7 model has 16 gigs of RAM and a 512 gig SSD. The ZenBook 3 has a very striking 1920 x 1080 IPS display (non-touch but glossy with Gorilla Glass 4).
