https://www.ultrabookreAnd how on earth can they justify only one USB-C and zero TB3 ports? It's an Intel laptop, the controller should be built into the CPU. It's not like an AMD model where there is an add-on cost.
I'd really rather not spend more than a couple hundred bucks on a laptop at this point. How often does a machine with this type of specs come up just in case I need to pull the trigger.

I have owned this laptop since January (512GB model though) and here are my observations:
- relatively frequent BIOS updates...I've done 3 so far. They don't change much, if anything at all.
- ScreenPad 2 is still a gimick. It's cool to play with in the store. In everyday use, I just shut it off and use it as a regular touch pad.
- That being said, it is a great touch pad - much better than the one in previous ZenBooks (circa-2017)
- Performance is great if a bit unnecessary. I actually use ThrottleStop to cut the Turbo Boost and keep it at 1.8ghz. It saves battery and I can turn up the boost if I start up Lightroom or one of my video editing programs.
- If you cut it to 1.8ghz, it is practically silent - you can't hear the fan. If you let it spool up to the 4.9ghz, then the fan kicks in. It's not terribly loud (definitely not as loud as a Lenovo 720s - that's just horrible)
- MX250...it's okay. Plays Forza just fine. Haven't actually tested it much.
- Battery life is a mixed bag. Some days it lasts me 8-9 hours. Other days, it dies after 4-5 hours even if I just browse and use office suite.
- Speakers are not great, but they are much better than previous ZenBooks (still can't get even close to the upward firing speakers on a Macbook though).
- Build quality is solid. No complaints there. It isn't a fingerprint magnet.
- Screen is great and decently bright.
Two things that suck about Asus laptops: no TB3 and terrible webcams. No one should be surprised about these two things at this point.
