Review 1 : Asus ux21 comparison to Macbook Air
The Asus UX21 is beautiful crafted. The compact solid aluminum body is gorgeous. The pictures don't do it justice. This ultra book has a similar compact build to the Macbook Air. However the lid color is a more metallic dark grey compared to the silver finish of the Air. Asus have really gone out of there way to compete with the Macbook Air in asthetics. The way the stickers are silver and don't stand out, shows how much they care. Out of the box. The UX21 comes with a power adaptor which comes in two parts and is very solid (The windows licence key is on the adaptor so don't lose it), especially compared to the Asus transformer prime adaptor which is rather flimsy. Also Asus have supplied a envelope pouch free which is a nice brown with a magnetic closer.It also come with manual, cable tie, cleaning cloth and pouch for the free vga adaptor and ethernet usb dongle. Apple charges for all these extras so its nice to save some money. (Its come to my attention from a verified purchaser...
