This is one of the first ultrabooks to be equipped with the latest 7th Gen Intel Core processors with Kaby Lake architecture, the Zenbook 3 will be available in three colors Royal Blue, Rose Gold and Quartz Grey.
ZenBook 3 is crafted from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, 50% stronger than the standard alloy used in laptops. ZenBook 3 delivers performance with up to an Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB of 2133MHz RAM, up to a 1TB PCIe Gen 3 x4 SSD, a next-gen USB Type-C port, and powerful quad-speaker audio by Harman Kardon.

ZenBook 3 provides up to 9 hours of battery life for all-day computing. When it’s time to recharge, fast-charge technology brings ZenBook 3’s battery up to 60% capacity in just 49 minutes. It features a full-size backlit keyboard with 19.8mm key pitch — the same as most desktop keyboards — and 0.8mm key travel to deliver comfortable typing experience.
