Asus clearly looks to boost its ZenBook line with the Deluxe to not just compete against the 12-inch MacBook, but now the new entry-level MacBook Pro. The thing is, though, that with the MacBook Pro, you're getting a far sharper screen for 200 bucks less...
looks stunning, although the golden accents might not appeal to everyone, excellently crafted, thin, light and compact for a 14incher, good keyboard and trackpad, toptier specs and connectivity (with the included adapters), fairly good speakers
rather dim and glossy screen, average battery life, potential throttling under load, the fan is always active, expensive
The Zenbook UX490 is an excellently crafted laptop with a beautiful, compact and light body, but also a very good keyboard, top-tier hardware specs and decent connectivity. However, in my opinion Asus somewhat sacrificed practicality for the sake of aesth...

14, inch screen in 13, inch frame, Still awfully light, Two Thunderbolt 3 ports, Fingerprint sensor
No configuration options, Mighty pricey for an FHD screen
Asus has developed an impressive improvement upon the existing ZenBook 3 in the ZenBook 3 Deluxe, boosting its screen size considerably, with negligible increases in weight and thickness. However, we'd love to see a sharper screen for the price...
Abstract: For mobile professionals, the ideal computer is probably an 'ultraportable' laptop -- a device suitable for carrying day in, day out, in a briefcase or backpack. Obviously it needs to be lightweight and relatively compact, but at the same time it should b...
classy design with high recognition value, compact thanks to narrow bezels, decent build quality, 2 x Thunderbolt 3, quick charge, TPM 2.0, fingerprint reader, useful accessories (bags, dongles. ), decent clickpad, outstanding contrast ratio, decent col

Thinnest 14-inch laptop we've tested, Solid construction, Good connectivity options, Fast Core i7 performance
Lacks USB 3,0 or HDMI ports, Significantly less battery life than the competition, 1080p screen lacks touch, Fan noise and warm chassis in testing, Not configurable
The Asus ZenBook 3 Deluxe is the thinnest 14-inch ultraportable laptop we've seen yet, but whiny fan noise and short battery life spoil the deal...

Excellent design with premium materials, Three USB-C ports, two with Thunderbolt 3, Great performance for its class, Very good keyboard
Gets warm under stress, Fan noise is higher than we'd like, Only 1080p display, Deck flexes more than it should
ASUS' new 14-inch ZenBook 3 Deluxe UX490UA is a solid ultrabook option, but it's only that. It's got great style with an ultra-thin design, low weight, and an excellent brushed aluminum body. The extra two USB-C ports alleviates one of the major headaches...
The Asus ZenBook 3 Deluxe is very slim and stylish. It fits a 14-inch screen into a compact body and includes a fingerprint reader. Performance is excellent
Battery life is short. Ports are limited. There's only a standard HD screen option
Asus slips a big screen into the thin body of the ZenBook 3 Deluxe, but the battery isn't as upscale as the design...
