Brilliant 2012 ultrabook, especially at this price. Future-proof-able: RAM and Hard Disk can be upgraded at home!
I spent almost a month extensively researching laptops before deciding to buy the UX32A. There are many superficial reviews out there (techradar, expertreviews and whatnot). Then there are a couple of superb, detailed review sites from which you will really learn what makes a good laptop: notebookcheck and anandtech. I would suggest to anyone looking at buying this (or any) laptop to read the reviews on these two sites.
Now to my own experience from having bought this machine 3 weeks ago:
It is light, fast, has a lovely backlit keyboard, a very robust sleep/hibernate function and power options that ensure battery is well conserved. The best part (and unlike the macbook air and many many other ultrabooks out there) the RAM can be upgraded (from the current 4GB upto a maximum of 10GB) and the hard disk can be upgraded (from the 500GB 'traditional' hard disk to a fast SSD of upto 500GB and probably 1TB in the future).

Review 1 : powerful, beautiful and light
I bought this laptop to take away travelling for 3 months, as I own a company, and need to be able to be online and potentially resolve any problems for clients.
It's lightweight, but feels absolutely solid, and the included case is actually quite good (although I'm probably going to get something a little more substantial).
I removed Windows and put Linux on (Ubuntu precise) and this was very painless indeed, with the only notable issue being the function keys for screen brightness. After having many issue in the past with various drivers (esp. wifi) it was very refreshing to have something work out of the box!
Screen quality is perfect, I've not had any light leakage as some have described.
Runs really smoothly, even when running virtual machines and other tasks which are resource heavy.
