ASUS ZENBOOK UX32A: BARGAIN ALL-ROUNDER

    Keeping the design and usability of the range-topping Zenbook Prime but downgrading the innards a tad, this 13.3-incher is a decent laptop for the price, with the Core i5 processor and 4GB RAM offering solid, if not jaw-dropping performance, and the 500GB HDD plenty of storage space.

Attractive and powerful, this is a very solid VFM option

    With a light, 1.5kg weight, impressive connectivity including three USB 3.0 ports, and a sexy, sexy casing, the only thing holding this back is mediocre battery life: Asus claims six hours; we got 208 minutes in our intensive test. It's still a sound choice at the price.£850, UK.ASUS.COM
