Asus Zenbook UX32VD Ultrabook vs Apple MacBook Air

Asus Zenbook UX32 priced at the same level as the New MacBook Air. However, the Asus ultrabook comes with more advantages compared to Apple’s MacBook Air. These are instantly recognizable: Its screen is matte. Apple has removed this option. Which is a shame, believe me: Although the manufacturer has reduced reflections on the MacBook retina displays allegedly by 75 percent, but it reflects much more than the Asus Zenbook UX32 laptop. In the office that is tolerable. But who is on the road, especially in the train, and there, sitting by the window, a matte screen is very crucial.

Rather a minor detail, however, is the touchpad. The Zenbook UX32 comes in a good size. And it has two main buttons, a trend that Apple refuses on principle. Otherwise, the models are technically the same level. Inside, both laptops offer same processors, Asus however get more computing power for the same money. The integrated Nvidia graphics, fast Core i7 processor, and above all, a full-HD display is really worth for the money.
