Allt som allt var vi mycket nöjda med ZenBook 13 UX331UN. Den kommer med en högkvalitativ skärm och förvånansvärt dugliga högtalare, vilket är dom viktigaste ingredienserna för en multimedia-laptop som kan användas utomhus tack vare sin imponerande maximala skärmljusstyrka. Utöver det så är kombinationen av CPU och GPU kraftfull nog för at köra spel smidigt vid reducerad upplösning och detalj. På så sätt är ZenBook ett skolboksexempel på en sann mångsysslare. Den är tunn och lätt, har ett hölje av hög kvalitet, en väldigt bra styrplatta och håller sig för det mesta sval. Dessutom är batteritiden utmärkt trots ett genomsnittligt 50 Wh-batteri.
Tillsammans är dessa imponerande fördelar. Tyvärr är ZenBook ännu inte riktigt perfekt och har ett antal brister. Tangentbordet är bara halvdant, kylsystemet är inte tillräckligt kraftfullt, CPU-prestandan är inkonsekvent och processorn tenderar att strypas för tidigt eller för ofta (vilket vi kunde bekräfta i Cinebench R15 och vårt stresstest-scenario). Inte bara det, dess CPU är dessutom betydligt långsammare när datorn körs på batteri. Och låt oss inte glömma det oljud som ZenBook ger ifrån sig under belastning och vid spelande. Faktum är att det är på gränsen att kunna vara irriterande för den känsligare användaren. Sist men inte minst, den inbyggda SATA III SSD-enheten, avsaknaden av Thunderbolt 3 och den rejält begränsade USB-C porten (inget stöd för DisplayPort) är nackdelar som är värda att notera.
Lockande: I mångt och mycket har Asus lyckats träffa mitt i prick med ZenBook 13 UX331UN, på nästan alla områden.
Fördelarna väger tydligt upp nackdelarna, vilket är varför ZenBook 13 UX331UN förtjänar en rekommendation. På jakt efter en portabel laptop med en diskret GPU så är den definitivt ett strålande alternativ till Dell XPS 13.
