Asus Zenbook UX301 Broadwell

Anyone know where to purchase one?

I noticed (several) weeks ago this has been listed on ASUS main website, and noticed the CPU's.

I've been looking everywhere and could only find Haswell versions. I know they launched broadwell UX303's, and that new garbage UX305, but I'm interested in the flagship with the gorilla glass

Hmm, Asus's ordering page is quite terrible. I'm not seeing any broadwell UX301s from the usual suspects. That's quite an amazing looking machine, though.

Why do you dislike the cheaper models so much? I noticed the 305 has a Core M chip, but haven't really read enough about the models to form any firm opinions.


edit: I just read more on the 305. They seriously just put the power button where the delete button is on my old laptop and didn't bother to offset it or give it a different feel than a regular button. Definitely not gonna bother.

Have you checked new Dell XPS 13 ? It looks awesome in reviews.

@AIM9x I just fell in love with the look. The gorilla glass had me sold. I could settle for the UX303 but I had my heart set on it since the original UX301 haha and the UX305 is garbage

@Mich Yes I have, but I have my heart set on the zenbook lol

Go buy it from a shady russian site for about $3000, lol.

That is the model with the high end 5557U processor (28W chip).

thanks, but that's a bit TOO shady for me to risk haha
