The UX21 is clad in an aluminum alloy shell that has a unique 'spun' finish. The UX Series has a number of impressive features, including 2nd generation Intel Core mobile processors and the powerful i7. ASUS claims that the Ultrabook has up to a 7-hour battery charge and an Instant-On feature where the laptop can resume in 2 seconds from sleep mode. At its thickest, the ASUS UX21 is a mere 17mm and weighs 1,100g. Further to this the laptop also features a SATA III SSD and USB 3.0 connectivity.
This 11.6-inch model on display has a sleek 30mm to 170mm side profile and weighs just 1.1kg, while a 13.3-inch version will also be available at launch, estimated to be as early as October. The UX21 is also the first laptop in the market to feature higher-speed SATA 3 solid-state drive, which is fully integrated onto the circuit board to keep the machine slimmer. It has a special trackpad coated with a glass surface, too.
The left side of the UX21 offers a proprietary VGA socket (requires adapter), USB2.0 port and earphone jack. Not shown, further to the right, is a narrow grille for its side speaker. Sound is also projected from the edges of the keyboard according to the spokesperson.
On the right is a micro-HDMI output, a USB 3.0 port and power jack. There's also a speaker grille on the left not pictured above. Check out the cool brushed metal finishing clearly visible here, too
