3 reasons to BUY the ASUS ZenBook S13 UX392
1. The build
This thing looks fantastic – an all-aluminum build, combined with super-thin bezels, low weight (1.10 kg) and very thin profile (12.9mm).
2. The performance
Such a thin profile but you can have it with a fast Intel Core i7-8565U CPU and NVIDIA GeForce MX150. This guarantees snappiness for your daily tasks and you can play some light games thanks to the discrete NVIDIA GPU.

2 reasons not to BUY the ASUS ZenBook S13 UX392
1. Upgradability
Well, the device has an M.2 PCIe x4 slot – that’s all. The RAM is soldered which means no possible future upgrades. Ouch!
2. The I/O
Let’s check the I/O. On the left – two USB Type-C 3.1 (Gen. 2) ports and a MicroSD card reader. On the right side, you can find one USB Type-A 3.1 (Gen. 2) port and a headphone jack. Not much. That’s why you have an extra dongle inside the box to complete the I/O because this device lacks some essential ports.
