Magyar华硕 Zenbook Prime UX31A 超级本测评
Only a short time ago, Asus presented its second generation Ultrabooks, which continue under the Zenbook moniker. Currently available in stores are the Asus Zenbook UX32A which is the lower cost variation (HD-TFT, HD 4000 GPU, no unibody construction, HDD+SSD cache) of the previously reviewed Zenbook UX32VD with its FHD IPS display and dedicated Nvidia GT 620M GPU. The other models include the Zenbook Prime UX21A which is the premium 11.6-inch Ultrabook with a FHD IPS display, as well as the bigger Zenbook Prime UX31A with a 13.3-inch FHD IPS display, aluminum unibody case, Intel HD 4000 GPU and a solid state drive.
The price of the Zenbook Prime UX31A is roughly 1099 Euro (~$1375) for the version with an i5 CPU and a 128GB SSD, 1199 (~$1500) Euro for the same processor with a 256GB SSD and finally 1399 Euro (~$1725) if you'd also like an Intel Core i7-3517U processor. For the following test, we used the entry model of the UX31A with the Intel i5 CPU and a 128GB SSD, which is probably the most popular Zenbook variation, unless one wants to also go without the FHD IPS display, the aluminum unibody construction and a true SSD.
For lower prices, you'll find the UX32A (from 799 Euro or about $1000) as well as the UX32VD (starting at 999 Euro or about $1250).
只有很短的时间前，华硕展示了其第二代Ultrabooks，继续下ZENBOOK绰号。目前可在商店购买的华硕ZENBOOK UX32A是降低成本的变化（HD-TFT，HD 4000 GPU，没有一体式机身结构，HDD+ SSD缓存）以前已通过审核的ZENBOOK UX32VD FHD IPS显示屏和专用的NVIDIA GT620M GPU（图形处理器） 。其他型号的ZENBOOK总理UX21A这是溢价11.6英寸Ultrabook与FHD IPS显示屏，以及更大的的的ZENBOOK总理UX31A用的是13.3英寸的FHD IPS显示屏，铝合金一体成型机身的情况下，英特尔HD 4000 GPU和扎实的固态驱动器。
在ZENBOOK总理UX31A的价格是大约1099欧元（〜$1375）的版本的i5 CPU，一个128GB SSD，1199（〜$1500）欧元的相同的处理器，一个256GB的SSD和最后1399欧元（〜$1725年），如果你还想英特尔酷睿i7-3517U处理器。对于下面的测试中，我们使用的英特尔酷睿i5 CPU和128GB SSD，这可能是最流行的ZENBOOK变化的UX31A的入门车型，除非人愿意也没有FHD IPS显示屏，铝合金一体成型机身的建设和真正的SSD。
对于较低的价格，你会发现UX32A的（从799欧元或1000美元左右），以及UX32VD（起点为999欧元或约1250美元）。
Case
Just recently, we tested the lower priced UX32VD. There were few points of criticism, with the case. When you compare the UX32VD with the UX31A, you will notice that the plastic-aluminum construction of the 32VD does not stand a chance against the aluminum unibody case of the 31A which is very similar to the last generation UX31E.
The build quality is really top-notch scoring an excellent 95% in the test. The aluminum case not only has an excellent feel to it, but is also stiff as a board and is pretty much impervious to deformation. Especially impressive is the torsional stability of the display here, in spite of its thickness only measuring a few millimeters.
The unibody construction means that there are very seams of separation in the construction. The obvious one would be the back cover that is well-seated and the machining quality is visible. The result is the height of the wrist-rest being just 10 mm above the surface and allows for a comfortable typing experience.
The display lid has a small lip at its center that allows for easy opening of the laptop with one hand. Asus got the balance between the strength of the hinges to hold up the display without wobble and the opening of the display with one hand without lifting the entire laptop of the surface just right. The maximum opening angle of 140° should be sufficient for most purposes. If the user needs wider angles, then the gorgeous IPS display can compensate for this ‘limitation’ to an extent.
The Asus Zenbook Prime UX31A is slightly heavier (1.40 kg or about 3.1 lb.) than Apple's MacBook Air 13 (1.35 kg or about 3.0 lb. according to Apple), but for everyday use, this difference is irrelevant.
Come to think of it, the Asus UX31A can be considered a worthy rival to the Apple Macbook Air 13. Apple has finally got some competition for this form-factor.
就在最近，我们测试了价格较低的UX32VD。批评的情况下，有几个点。当你比较UX32VD的UX31A，你会发现，铝塑建设的32VD31A这是非常相似的上一代UX31E对铝合金一体成型机身的情况下是不成立的机会。
构建质量真的是一流的测试中得分优秀的95％。铝合金外壳，不仅具有出色的手感，而且也是僵硬的董事会，是非常不变形。尤其令人印象深刻的是这里的显示的扭转稳定性，尽管其厚度只测量几毫米。
一体式机身结构是指在施工中有非常接缝处分离。最明显的一个后盖层次的加工质量是可见的。其结果是高度仅有10毫米以上的表面的手腕休息，并允许一个舒适的打字体验。
的显示屏盖有一个小的唇为中心的，允许用一只手轻松打开的笔记本电脑。华硕得到的铰链强度没有托起显示，显示器用一只手的摆动和开放的，没有恰到好处地提升整个笔记本电脑的表面之间的平衡。最大开启角度140°应该是足以满足大多数用途。如果用户需要更广泛的角度，然后华丽的IPS显示屏，这个'限制'在一定程度上可以弥补。
华硕ZENBOOK的总理UX31A稍重（1.40公斤或约3.1磅），比苹果的MacBook Air13（1.35公斤或约3.0磅，根据苹果），但对于日常使用来说，这种差异是无关紧要的。
试想想它，华硕UX31A可以被认为是一个值得的对手，苹果Macbook Air13。苹果终于得到了一定的竞争，这种形式的因素。
Connectivity
Since the unibody case is slightly slimmer than the Zenbook UX32VD, there was less room available for ports. On the left, we find one USB 3.0 port, a combined headphone/microphone connector and an SD card reader. To the right, we find a micro-HDMI port, a mini-VGA port, one more USB 3.0 connector as well as the power connector.
When compared to the Zenbook UX32, the UX31A omits one extra USB 3.0 port and shrinks the HDMI port. RJ45 LAN as well as VGA adapters are included with the laptop. What's missing? Not much for mobile use, we think. But if you feel nitpicky then the omission of the DisplayPort for higher resolution displays could be considered a ‘glaring’ error.
由于一体式机身外壳是稍微不像ZENBOOK UX32VD，有较少的空间提供的端口。在左边，我们发现1个USB 3.0端口，一个耳机/麦克风接口和一个SD卡读卡器。在右边，我们发现一个微型HDMI端口，一个迷你VGA端口，一个USB 3.0接口以及电源接口。
ZENBOOK UX32相比，中，UX31A忽略了一个额外的USB 3.0端口和收缩的HDMI端口。 RJ45 LAN以及VGA适配器的笔记本电脑。缺少了什么？没有太多的移动使用，我们的想法。但如果你觉得挑剔，那么遗漏的DisplayPort更高分辨率的显示器可以被认为是一个“明显的”错误。
We used the Dell 2408WFP to test the image quality of the VGA and HDMI ports on the review device. Both ports displayed the image at a resolution of 1920x1200 but we could observe more sharpness in the images from the mini-HDMI port. Working at a normal distance from the display, this should not be noticeable. Connecting 2 external monitors simultaneously with the internal display is also possible using HDMI and VGA at the same time. The Zenbook managed our office setup with two Dell 24" monitors (1920x1200) and the integrated display without trouble. The UX31A only hits its limit when it comes to high resolution external displays, because a DisplayPort interface would be required for resolutions of 2560x1600 pixels.
Looking at its main rival, the Air 13, we find the same number of USB 3.0 ports, the SD card reader and the headphone connectors. In regards to external monitors, Apple uses the newer Thunderbolt interface, which can also be used as a Mini-DisplayPort supporting up to 2560x1600 pixel resolutions. Adapters for the Thunderbolt port must be purchased separately: DVI adapter (29 Euro or $37), Dual Link DVI adapter (99 Euro or $125), VGA adapter (29 Euro or $37), HDMI adapter (29 Euro or $37) and Gigabit LAN adapter (29 Euro or $37). Apple does provide more connectivity options in the form of adapters, but this leaves a bitter taste as you need to pay so much. This is an advantage with Asus as it already includes the important adapters at delivery.
我们使用戴尔2408WFP测试的图像质量审查设备上的VGA和HDMI端口。这两个港口在1920x1200的分辨率，但显示的图像，我们可以观察到更多的mini-HDMI端口的图像清晰度。在一个正常的距离显示，这不应该是明显的。同时连接2个外接显示器，内置显示器也可以同时使用HDMI和VGA。 ZENBOOK管理我们的办公室安装了两台Dell24“显示器（1920x1200分辨率）和集成显示无故障。UX31A只打了极限，因为当它涉及到高分辨率外部显示器的DisplayPort接口将需要2560 x 1600像素的分辨率。
它的主要竞争对手，中航13，我们找到了相同数量的USB 3.0端口，SD卡读卡器和耳机接口。在外部显示器方面，苹果使用新的Thunderbolt接口，这也可以作为一个迷你的DisplayPort支持高达2560×1600像素分辨率。迅雷端口的适配器必须将购买的分别：DVI转接器（29欧元或37美元），双链接DVI转接器（99欧元或125美元），VGA转接器（29欧元或37美元），HDMI转接器（29欧元或37美元）和千兆网卡转接器（29欧元或37美元）。苹果没有在适配器的形式提供更多的连接选项，但留下了苦涩的味道，因为你需要付出这么多。这是一个优势，因为它已经包括了分娩时的重要适配器与华硕。
Communication
Aboard the Zenbook UX31A, we find a standard Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n (Intel Centrino Advanced-N6235) radio, including Bluetooth 4.0. Wired LAN is specified at 10/100 Mbps. An integrated broadband radio is sadly unavailable, so one is stuck using those clunky USB sticks. Smart phone users use tethering when internet access is required on the go.
The webcam in the display bezel should be the same one in the Asus UX32VD. The image quality is decent and is able to take videos in low-lighting conditions. But we do have issues with the slow response times.
The UX31A also supports Intel's Wireless Display Technology which can transmit pictures to a compatible monitor, projector or adapter without hooking up a cable. This is mostly useful for videos and presentations, as playback often arrives with a delay. Since Intel's Centrino 6235 Wi-Fi module supports dual band Wi-Fi, transmission should be improved over single band Wi-Fi, but we could not test this due to our lack of compatible gear.
Accessories
This too turns out identical to the UX32VD. The box contains a synthetic protective cover as well as a small bag for the USB LAN and HDMI/VGA adapters.
Service
While many manufacturers offer more and more Ultrabooks that are un-upgradeable by the user due to custom hardware parts squeezed in to a thin case, Asus goes against this and gave the UX31A a large service hatch, like in its predecessor. But the screws holding the hatch down are Torqx screws that are not common in PC construction and with the correct screwdriver you can chance a look at the interior. Here, like in the UX32VD, we have access to nearly all components: battery, Wi-Fi radio, SSD, fan and cooling components. Various maintenance tasks can easily be accomplished by savvy users. RAM upgrades are not possible as they are soldered onto the mainboard to keep things compact.
通讯
这艘的ZENBOOK UX31A，我们找到一个标准的Wi-Fi802.11 A / B/ G / N（英特尔®迅驰®高级-N6235）无线，蓝牙4.0。有线局域网指定的10/100 Mbps的速度。集成的宽带无线可悲的是不可用的，所以坚持使用那些笨重的USB棒。智能手机用户使用网络共享网络连接时，需要在旅途中。
摄像头在显示器边框在华硕UX32VD应该是同一个。图像质量是体面的，能在低照明的条件下拍摄视频。但是，我们的响应时间慢的问题。
UX31A也支持英特尔无线显示技术，可以传输图片到兼容的显示器，投影机或适配器没有连接电缆。这是非常有用的视频和演示文稿，播放经常到达的延迟。由于英特尔的迅驰6235 Wi-Fi模块支持双带的Wi-Fi，传输应改善了单频段的Wi-Fi，但我们可以对此进行测试，由于我们缺乏兼容的齿轮。
饰品
这也变成了相同的UX32VD。礼盒内含有一种人工合成的保护盖的USB LAN，HDMI / VGA适配器以及一个小袋子。
服务
虽然许多制造商提供了越来越多的Ultrabooks是由用户定制的硬件部分挤在一个薄的情况下，由于未升级，华硕违背了这一点，并给了UX31A庞大的服务孵化，在其前身一样。但是，按住舱口盖的螺丝是不常见的的Torqx螺丝，在PC的建设和正确的螺丝刀，你可以有机会看看内部。在这里，像在UX32VD，我们可以访问到几乎所有的组件：电池，Wi-Fi无线，SSD，风扇和散热组件。可以轻松地完成各种维护任务，精明的用户。 RAM升级是不可能的，因为它们被焊接在主板上，让事情变得紧凑。
Warranty
Asus provides a 24 months worldwide warranty for its premium Zenbooks, offering pickup & return service in Austria and Germany.
Looking at Apple, we find only a one year warranty. There's also an upgrade to 3 years available for 249 Euro (~$310).
保
华硕提供24个月的全球保修，提供其优质Zenbooks皮卡在奥地利和德国的退货服务。
在苹果公司，我们发现只有一年的保修。还有一个升级至3年为249欧元（310美元）。
Input devices
Keyboard
The appearance of the keyboard and touchpad might give the wrong impression to the user that they would be similar to the ones found on the UX32VD which would be far from the truth. The UX32VD keyboard suffered from flex due to the material of construction that wasn’t completely metal based. The aluminum unibody construction negates this issue in the UX31A. But there are small adjustments serious typists have to make with the short key travel that might not appeal to everybody.
Touchpad
The large size touchpad impresses us. As far as Windows allows, multi-touch gestures work pretty well. Even two-finger scrolling in a browser works reasonably well even though it’s not quite comparable to the solutions from the Apple and ChromeOS camps. We are still not happy with the clickpad concept when it comes to drag and drop operations with two fingers. Sometimes several attempts are required before the touchpad recognizes our intent and actually fulfills it.
In regards to input devices, at least for the touchpad, Apple is ahead. Without question, the keyboard and the generous touchpad are top notch among windows systems, but Apple has fine-tuned its software to the hardware, leading to a better user experience.
键盘
键盘和触摸板的外观的用户可能会误以为他们将类似的UX32VD发现，这将是远离真理。 UX32VD键盘遭受挠曲，由于这是不完全的金属类的材料建造。铝合金一体式机身结构否定了这一问题在UX31A。但也有严重的打字员必须做的短按键行程，可能无法吸引大家的小调整。
触摸板
大尺寸触控板，让我们印象深刻。至于Windows允许，多点触摸手势工作得很好。即使两个手指滚动浏览器中工作得相当好，即使它并不是很具有可比性的从苹果和ChromeOS阵营的解决方案。我们仍然不快乐的ClickPad的概念，当它涉及到两个手指拖放操作。有时需要多次尝试前触摸板承认我们的意图和实际履行。
在输入设备方面，至少触摸板，苹果领先。毫无疑问，键盘和大方的触摸板在windows系统中是顶尖的，但苹果有微调软件到硬件，从而更好的用户体验。
Display
Asus integrates what is probably the best available notebook display in its premium range of Ultrabooks. The FHD IPS panel has already been evaluated in our review of the UX32VD. A look at the display ID shows it to be the same type as in the UX32VD. Accordingly, the differences in our measurements should be considered either measurement or product tolerances. Another device that comes with a Full-HD IPS panel is the 11.6-inch UX21A.
With exceptionally good brightness of about 375 cd/m², very even illumination, a low black value and high contrast, there is no room for criticism. Additionally, the panel comes with a non-reflective finish, avoiding annoying reflections and mirror images, so Zenbooks can be used outdoors without concern. IPS panels also offer extreme viewing angles without significant alteration of the displayed image. This contributes significantly to the mobility of the UX31A.
华硕集成可能是最好的可用的笔记本电脑显示屏的溢价范围Ultrabooks。FHD IPS面板已经在我们的审查的UX32VD的评估。甲看看在显示ID，将其表示为相同的类型在UX32VD的。因此，在我们的测量差异应被视为无论是测量或产品的公差。另一种设备，配备了全高清IPS面板是11.6英寸的UX21A。
约375坎德拉/平方米，非常均匀的照明，一个黑色值低和高对比度亮度非常好，也没有批评的空间。此外，该面板带有一个非反射的表面，避免恼人的反射和镜像，所以Zenbooks可以在户外使用而不必担心。 IPS面板也提供了极端的视角没有显着改变显示的图像。这有助于显着的流动性的UX31A。

With a display size of 13.3 inches, the UX31A sports the most common form-factor among current Ultrabooks. Rather uncommon and far ahead of most competitors is the resolution offered: Full-HD, 1920x1080 pixels. Without making use of Windows scaling, icons and text would be rather small, so Asus has made some adjustments (to the DPI settings) to make sure the display and the browsers are legible. This doesn’t work with all software and this issue has been discussed in detail in the UX32VD review.
The non-reflective surface and excellent brightness (which is also available while running on battery power) makes it possible to use the laptop outdoors. Even in direct sunlight, the screen remains perfectly readable and reflections are reduced to an easily acceptable minimum.
The stability of images at extreme viewing angles on the IPS display is unmatched. Moving from the optimum viewing angle in the process of daily work causes no changes in the displayed image. The panel has no problems with even the most extreme angles. One should just be careful when looking at sensitive data, because someone 3 seats away could effortlessly read along...
With a black background, we could detect some back light bleed in the lower part of the display especially to the right, but this is not noticeable during every day use.
13.3英寸的显示尺寸，UX31A运动最常见的形式因素，在目前的Ultrabooks。相当罕见，远远领先于大多数竞争对手的分辨率提供了全高清1920×1080像素。不使用Windows缩放，图标和文字将是相当小的，所以华硕的DPI设置进行了一些调整，以确保显示和浏览器都清晰可辨。这并不工作，所有的软件，这个问题已经详细讨论在UX32VD审查。
非反射表面和优异的亮度（这也是电池电源运行时），它可以在户外使用的笔记本电脑。即使在阳光直射下，屏幕依然是完全可读和反射降低到一个易于接受的最低。
在极端的视角IPS显示屏上的图像的稳定性是无与伦比的。从最佳的视角在日常工作的过程中的移动会导致在显示的图像中没有变化。面板上没有问题，即使在最极端的角度。每个人都应该是寻找敏感数据时要小心，因为对方3个席位可以毫不费力地阅读...
一个黑色的背景，我们可以发现一些背光出血的下部特别是要显示正确的，但是这不是明显在每天使用。
We have to compare this to the Apple's MacBook Air 13. A 13.3" display is offered here too, but with glare surface and a resolution of 1440x900 pixels. Apple does use a good quality TN panel with strong brightness and convincing color rendition and contrast. But the reflective surface is not to everybody's liking and in outdoor use; it is simply inferior to the IPS panel. The higher resolution is also a feature in favor of the Asus UX31A even though some Windows applications fail at properly scaling. Apple would have handled scaling better in their own operating system, as shown by the MacBookPro Retina (2880x1800 Pixels!) panel, even thought that suffered some glitches at first too. Customers of the new Air generation can't enjoy a high resolution display yet. Point to Asus.
我们要比较的苹果MacBook Air13。这里提供一个13.3“显示器太，但与眩光表面和1440x900像素的分辨率。苹果不使用一个良好的品质TN面板与强大的亮度和有说服力的颜色再现和对比。但反射面是不以每个人的喜好和户外使用;它只是不如IPS面板，更高的分辨率也有利于的华硕UX31A的，即使一些Windows应用程序无法在适当的缩放功能。苹果将处理缩放更好地在自己的操作系统，所表现出的MacBook Pro的视网膜面板（2880x1800像素），甚至认为遭受了一些小问题，在第一。客户产生新的空气不能享受高分辨率显示。华硕的点。
Performance
As mentioned earlier, the price of the UX31A depends much on the various configurations. It is available with Intel's i5-3317U CPU, found in our test model, or with a faster i7-3517U. RAM, however, is fixed at 4GB, regardless of which model you order. For storage, a Solid State Drive is used in all the cases and the owner (or his/her money) decides between 128 GB and 256 GB SSDs. Upgrade pricing looks fair enough to us, with 100 Euro (~$125) for the larger SSD and 200 Euro (~$250) for the i7 CPU.
In comparison to the Zenbook UX32VD, Asus omits a dedicated GPU. Since Intel improved the integrated GPU considerably for the Ivy Bridge generation, office users should not miss anything. A choice between the UX31A and the UX32VD has to be made based on the user’s requirements. There is very little advantage in choosing the UX32VD over the UX31A as the ergonomics are certainly better in the case of the non-GPU version of the laptop.
正如前面提到的，在很大程度上取决于价格的UX31A的各种配置。它可与英特尔的酷睿i5-3317U的CPU，在我们的测试模型，或用更快的酷睿i7-3517U。然而，RAM，固定在4GB，无论模型。存储，固态硬盘使用在所有的情况下，对所有者（或他/她的钱）决定在128 GB和256 GB固态硬盘。升级价格足够让我们看起来公平，具有较大的SSD100欧元（约125美元）和200欧元（约250美元）的i7 CPU。
在对比的ZENBOOK UX32VD的，华硕省略了专用的GPU。由于英特尔提高了集成的GPU相当的Ivy Bridge世代，办公室等用户不应该错过任何东西。一个选择之间的UX31A和UX32VD的根据用户的要求进行。优势在人体工程学当然在非GPU版本的笔记本电脑的情况下，更好的在UX31A选择的UX32VD，有很少的。
Processor
Most of the Zenbooks sold would probably incorporate Intel's Core i5-3317U CPU like in our review sample. This is the latest low voltage Ivy Bridge processor with two cores, each running at a base clock speed of 1.7 GHz. Turbo Boost 2.0 provides overclocking up to 2.6 GHz and Hyper threading permits the dual core chip to run up to four threads simultaneously. With its low 17 W TDP (Thermal Design Power), the processor is specifically designed for use in thin notebooks with limited cooling capacities. For further details on the CPU (feature set, benchmarks, etc), please look up our detail page on the Intel Core i5-3317U CPU.
In the Cinebench R11.5 benchmark test, the processor scored 2.38 points in the Multi thread test. This places the processor on equal footing with other Ultrabooks utilizing the same chip. In comparison, Intel's last generation Core i5-2410M Standard Voltage CPU (35 Watt TDP) has roughly the same performance. Our observations in Cinebench R10 single core test (4351 points, 2.6 GHz) and in the multi-core test (8768 points, 2.4 GHz) show that Turbo Boost works unhindered.
大部分的Zenbooks出售可能会采用英特尔酷睿i5-3317U CPU一样在我们的评测样机。这是最新的低电压Ivy Bridge的处理器有两个内核，每个内核运行的基本时钟速度为1.7 GHz。睿频加速2.0超频到2.6 GHz和超线程的双核心芯片允许同时运行四个线程。凭借其低TDP（热设计功耗）17 W，处理器是专门为超薄笔记本电脑中使用的冷却能力有限。对于CPU（功能设置，基准等）的进一步详情，请查看我们的详细信息页面上的英特尔酷睿i5-3317U CPU。
在的CINEBENCH R11.5基准测试中，处理器得分2.38分，在多线程测试。这将在平等的基础上与其他Ultrabooks使用相同的芯片处理器。相比之下，Intel的上一代酷睿i5-2410M标准电压CPU（35瓦TDP）具有大致相同的性能。我们的研究结果显示，在CINEBENCH R10单核心测试（4351分，2.6千兆赫），并在多核心测试（8768分，2.4 GHz）的Turbo Boost的工作不受阻碍地。
Alternatively, the Zenbook Prime UX31A is also available with Intel's i7-3517U CPU. Is the extra performance worth the 200 Euro (~$250) upgrade cost? Comparing Cinebench R11.5 benchmarks, the i7 CPU manages a 15% performance increase in rendering (CPU) and 18% for OpenGL calculation (GPU). If mostly calculation intensive applications are used, the i7 could be worth considering, but most users will do perfectly well with the i5. There should be no detectable change in the already speedy performance of the system that is mainly due to the integrated SSD.
此外，ZENBOOK，总理UX31A也可与英特尔的酷睿i7-3517U的CPU。价值200欧元（约250美元）的升级费用是额外的性能？比较CINEBENCH R11.5的基准，管理的i7 CPU的渲染（CPU）15％的性能提升和18％的用于OpenGL计算（GPU）。如果主要是计算密集型应用程序的使用，酷睿i7可能是值得考虑的，但大多数用户会做到完美的i5。不应该有任何可检测的变化在已经迅速的性能的系统，主要是由于集成SSD。

System Performance
The last-generation UX31 made headlines in this discipline. We tested the new laptop in PCMark Vantage and the UX31A scored an excellent 11072 points. The UX31A tops the UX31 by 20%. There are two improvements that could cause such a jump in the benchmark scores. One is the Ivy Bridge update that comes with a little more oomph than the Sandy Bridge processors and the second being the faster SSDs employed by Asus.
In the more current PCMark 7, the results are no less impressive: 5155 points serve to catapult Asus' Zenbook to the fifth place in the list of all previously tested notebooks, directly behind Asus' own G75V Gaming machine with 5262 points.
In everyday use, this still does not mean high-performance. No question, the Zenbook UX31A is fast and currently among the fastest ultrabooks, but with graphics and particularly CPU intensive tasks, a heavy multimedia user can easily drive the machine to its performance limits. On the other hand, it’s perfectly suited for office type applications and light multimedia use like video playback. It’s perfectly capable of video editing, but one could benefit from the stronger i7 CPU in this use-case.
In our test, the Ultrabook impressed with fast boot up, quick loading of software and data. You'd never know that you're actually using a battery-optimized ULV platform for everyday use. This in contrast to many other devices designated as multimedia notebooks that offer very little performance when considering the hardware that is included.
上一代的UX31在这门学科的头条新闻。我们测试了新的笔记本电脑在PCMark Vantage UX31A的取得了一个很好的11072点。 UX31A上衣UX31 20％。有两个方面的改进可能会导致这样的跳转基准值。一个是Ivy Bridge的更新，多了几分魅力的Sandy Bridge处理器和更快的固态硬盘采用华硕的第二。
在当前的PCMark 7，结果同样令人印象深刻：服务弹射华硕ZENBOOK到第五位列表中的所有先前测试的笔记本电脑，后面直接华硕G75V博彩机与5262点，5155点。
在日常使用中，这仍然不意味着高性能。毫无疑问，本ZENBOOK UX31A是速度快，目前世界上最快的ultrabooks，但图形，尤其是CPU密集型任务，沉重的多媒体用户可以很容易地将机器性能极限。另一方面，它非常适合于办公应用和光的多媒体应用，如视频播放。这是完全有能力的视频编辑，但可以受益于更强的酷睿i7 CPU的使用情况。
在我们的测试中，快速开机，快速加载的软件和数据的Ultrabook留下深刻的印象。你从来不知道，你实际上使用的是的电池优化ULV平台的日常使用。这指定为多媒体笔记本电脑提供了非常小的性能时，考虑的硬件，包括许多其他设备。

Storage Devices
In our Zenbook UX31A, the installed ADATA MX11 SSD shows good results in our various benchmarks once more. With reads up to 476 MB/s and writes up to 157 MB/s (CrystalDiskMark), the Solid State Drive puts conventional hard drives to shame. On the other hand, it has to concede to high end SSDs like OCZ's Vertex 4. Especially sequential writes were rather below average in our test.
Users will enjoy the experience due to the short access times of less than 0.2 ms, which is typical for SSDs. A Windows boot from cold takes less than 20 seconds and waking from standby takes just a couple of seconds.
Update: According to user reports, Asus includes two types of SSDs in the UX31A. Both the 128GB and the 256GB options can either be the ADATA MX11 or the Sandisk U100.
Comparing AS SSD benchmarks between 128GB SSDs shows that Sandisk's U100 is considerably slower than Adata's MX11, especially in 4k reads and writes. The U100 also has increased access times. According to Asus, Sandisk U100 models are used only due to MX11 shortages. This change in hardware is independent of model variation or place of purchase, but mostly MX11 SSDs are supposed to be used. Other manufacturers like Apple with its Air are also forced to this course of action due to component shortages.
There is no way to determine the type of SSD in the laptop. The ‘Sandforce Driven’ sticker on the box should be ignored and SSD tests like HDTune or CrystalDiskMark should be able to confirm the type of SSD inside. Consumers should take advantage of the 14-day return policy if the slower Sandisk U100 is found in their purchases. Running the softwares from a USB drive on the machines in a brick-and-mortar store should also help determine the type of SSD present. Customer complaints can be found here.
在安装ADATA MX11 SSD我们的ZENBOOK UX31A，在我们的各项指标再次显示出良好的结果。通过读取高达476 MB/ s的写入，最高达157 MB /秒（CrystalDiskMark的），固态驱动器将传统的硬盘驱动器的耻辱。在另一方面，它承认像OCZ的Vertex4到高端的固态硬盘。尤其是连续的写操作，而低于平均水平在我们的测试中。
用户能够体验并享受由于短的存取时间小于0.2毫秒，这是典型的固态硬盘。从寒冷的Windows启动只需不到20秒，从待机状态唤醒只需几秒钟。
更新：根据用户报告，华硕的固态硬盘在UX31A的包括两种类型。 128GB和256GB两种选项可以是ADATA MX11或SanDisk的U100。
AS SSD的基准之间128GB固态硬盘比较SanDisk的U100是相当慢比威刚的MX11，尤其是在4K的读取和写入。 U100还增加了访问时间。据华硕，SanDisk的U100型号仅用于由于MX11短缺。这种变化在硬件上是独立的模型变化或购买处，但大多是MX11的SSD都应该被使用。其他制造商，如苹果，其空气也被迫行动这个过程中，由于零件短缺的。
有没有办法确定SSD在笔记本电脑的类型。 “的SandForce驱动”的标签贴在包装盒上应忽略HDTune的或CrystalDiskMark的测试，如SSD应该能够确认的类型的SSD内。消费者应充分利用14天的退货政策，如果被发现在他们的购买SanDisk的U100慢。砖和迫击炮商店在机器上的一个USB驱动器上运行的软件也可以帮助确定类型的SSD目前。客户投诉可以在这里找到。
Graphics Performance
As we already determined in our extensive test of Intel's new Ivy Bridge architecture , with the reduction of the size from 32 nm to 22 nm, graphics performance has been improved the most. In the 3DMark Vantage benchmark, the UX31A almost doubles the performance of the older UX31E with the Core i5-2557M and integrated HD 3000 GPU (2683 points vs 1414 points).
With this advance, Intel was able to match the performance of the older GeForce GT 330M. But testing a few games showed that you can't necessarily draw conclusions from the benchmark numbers in regards to actual gaming performance.
Fifa 12 could be played well with high details (1366x768) with an average of 30.8 fps. The Sandy Bridge based UX31E managed just 27 fps in the same test. Diablo 3 performance turned out very similar - we managed 23.1 fps in our benchmark with high settings (1366x768). The Dell Vostro 3360 managed a little more with the same CPU/GPU scoring 26.7 fps. The GT 620M in Asus' UX32VD improves on this slightly with 29.1 fps which is just about playable.
Finally, we will take a closer look at Anno 2070. The 12.6 fps reached with high settings (1366x768) match Dell's Vostro 3360, but are insufficient for fluid play. Graphic detail had to be reduced further.
正如我们已经决定在我们广泛的测试，英特尔的Ivy Bridge的新架构，从32纳米到22纳米的尺寸减小，显卡的性能已经提高了。在3DMark Vantage基准，UX31A几乎增加了一倍UX31E的酷睿i5-2557M和集成的HD 3000 GPU（图形处理器）（2683点与1414点）的性能。
有了这个提前，英特尔能够匹配上了年纪的GeForce GT 330M的性能。但是，测试了几场比赛的结果显示，你未必可以得出结论，在实际游戏性能方面的基准数字。
FIFA 12可以发挥出色，平均30.8 fps的高细节（1366×768）。基于Sandy Bridge的UX31E管理的只有27帧在相同的测试。 “暗黑破坏神3的性能非常相似 - 23.1 fps的，我们在我们的基准高设置（1366×768）。戴尔Vostro成就3360使用相同的CPU / GPU得分26.7 fps的管理多一点。 GT620M华硕UX32VD略有提高29.1 FPS，这只是大约可玩的。
最后，我们将采取仔细看看安诺2070。达到12.6 fps的高设置匹配戴尔Vostro成就3360（1366×768），但不足的流体发挥。详细图解进一步降低。

Emissions
System Noise
Like last year's UX31E and the UX32VD, the user always gets to enjoy a nearly silent computer, at least without high CPU load. Occasionally, the fan may turn on for a short time during load peaks, but is only minimally audible at 29.8 dB (A).
Even under constant load, the UX31A never annoyed us during testing. Running the 3DMark 2006 benchmark, we measured just 32.4 dB (A). Compared with the UX32VD with its GT 620M GPU, the UX31A is more silent throughout all the tests.
Update: In several forums, owners of the i7 UX31A have complained about the random increase in fan speed when waking the system from sleep or standby. We could not duplicate this effect in our test unit (BIOS version 204). Asus provides a bios update for this issue.
系统噪声
在用户像去年的UX31E和UX32VD，总是很享受几乎无声的电脑，至少不高的CPU负载。有时候，风扇可能会变成在负载峰值的时间很短，但只有最小的声音为29.8分贝（A）。
即使在恒定的负载，UX31A从来不生气，我们在测试过程中。运行了3DMark2006基准测试中，我们测量只有32.4分贝（A）。的UX32VD其GT620M GPU（图形处理器）相比，的UX31A是更加沉默了，在所有的测试中。
更新：在几个论坛，业主的i7 UX31A的抱怨随机增加风扇速度时唤醒系统从休眠或待机。在我们的测试单元（BIOS版本为204），我们无法复制这种效应。华硕提供了

Temperature
While the older UX31E in its original configuration remained cool regardless of load, the UX32VD heated up far more due to the GPU. In the slim aluminum case, two fans had their work cut out for them to get the excess heat out of the case. Our model is about half way between the two extremes. With peaks of 32-33 °C without load and about 44 °C in the stress test, it does heat up noticeably, but temperatures never limit normal operation. Even use on the lap is possible for normal tasks. One should take care not to block the bottom vents in the rear. If the notebook is placed on a soft surface like a blanket, these vents would easily get blocked causing increased temperatures in the Zenbook.
而老UX31E在其原有的配置仍然清凉与负载无关，UX32VD加热得多的GPU。在超薄铝合金外壳，两个风扇的工作已切出，他们得到的多余的热量散发出来的情况下。我们的模式是两个极端之间的约一半。峰32-33°C，无负载情况下，约44°C的压力测试，升温明显，但温度不会限制正常运作。即使放在膝上使用正常的任务是可能的。每个人都应该注意不要挡住底面以及散热口的后方。如果笔记本电脑放置在柔软的表面像毯子一样，这些通风孔，很容易被封锁，造成温度升高的ZENBOOK。
As usual, we put our review samples under extreme load in the stress test, placing maximum load on CPU and GPU for a minimum of one hour. With peaks around 83 °C, Intel's i5-3317U remains in the safe range. There is no change in the CPU clock speed and stays at 1.7 GHz without throttling down. A 3DMark 06 benchmark immediately after the stress test produced about the same result as after a cold start.
(±) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 44.3 °C / 112 F, compared to the average of 36.1 °C / 97 F, ranging from 21.4 to 281 °C for the class Subnotebook.
(±) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 44.3 °C / 112 F, compared to the average of 39.4 °C / 103 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 30 °C / 86 F, compared to the device average of 30.8 °C / 87 F.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are reaching skin temperature as a maximum (32.9 °C / 91.2 F) and are therefore not hot.
(-) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28.3 °C / 82.9 F (-4.6 °C / -8.3 F).
Speakers
After removal of the service hatch below the notebook, one can see the speaker housing. The membrane looks similar to the ones in the UX32VD, but the small chambers have a different shape, because the battery shape is different. They look more like the UX31E, which had different membranes installed though.
Well, how do they sound? In spite of the similar construction of the UX32VD speakers, we like the sound of the UX31A a lot better. We did not notice any muffled sounds with our ears positioned above the notebook here. It’s possible that was just the pre-production sample of the UX32VD that had this issue. Playing back songs with the UX31A is not a problem with playback sounding pretty good. A weakness in bass is unavoidable, but in comparison with many other compact notebooks, the UX31A sounds very good.
以下的笔记本服务舱口除去后，一个可以看到的扬声器壳体。膜看起来类似于在UX32VD的的，但小室有不同的形状，因为电池的形状是不同的。他们看起来更像是的UX31E，它安装虽然有不同的膜。
那么，如何做他们的声音吗？在尽管建设的UX32VD扬声器的类似，我们喜欢的的UX31A的声音好多了。用我们的耳朵上方的笔记本电脑在这里，我们没有注意到任何低沉的声音。这是可能的，这仅仅是预生产样品的UX32VD有这个问题。播放听起来很不错是没有问题的播放歌曲的UX31A的。低音的弱点是不可避免的，但在与许多其他紧凑型笔记本电脑相比，UX31A听起来很不错。
Battery Life
Power Consumption
Under favorable conditions, we measured a measly 4.4 W energy consumption from the power supply. For this, the display was set to minimal brightness; radios were deactivated as was the keyboard back light. The Asus Zenbook UX32VD drew 6.1 W under the same conditions. The display’s energy needs were easy to discern: Raising display brightness to maximum, while leaving all other settings the same increases the consumption to 7.1 W.
Under load, one should expect between 31.5 and 36.1 W. This too remains markedly below the UX32VD which draws 44.5 to 60.7 W when the GT 620M GPU is active.
耗电量
在有利的条件下，我们测量了可怜的4.4 W电源的能源消耗。对于这一点，显示被设置为最小亮度是键盘背光灯，收音机被停用。的华硕ZENBOOK UX32VD的吸引6.1 W相同的条件下。显示器的能源需求很容易辨别：提高显示器的亮度开到最大，同时保留所有其他设置相同的消费增加7.1 W.
负载下，人都不应指望在31.5和36.1之间W.这也仍然显着低于UX32VD吸引44.5〜60.

Battery Runtime
Intel mainly promised more graphic performance for the new Ivy Bridge platform. But does it improve battery run times as well? Does the new, power hungry IPS display panel have a negative effect on the runtime? As usual, we use the BatteryEater tool to test this. The best score in the Reader's Test was a strong 10 hours and 48 minutes, when simulating the reading of a document with minimum display brightness, energy savings profile and all radios deactivated.
In the internet surfing test (150 cd/m² display brightness, wireless radios active, standardized web surfing, opening a page every 40 seconds) we arrived at a considerably lower 4 hours and 42 minutes. Last year's UX31E only managed a maximum of 7 hours and 30 minutes, but in the surf test, it held out a bit longer at 5 hours and 9 minutes. The Zenbook UX32VD also tops out at a maximum of 7 hours and 8 minutes and fell behind with just 4 hours and 18 minutes in the surf test.
In the BatteryEater Classic test (worst case scenario), we managed 148 minutes (2 hours 28 minutes) with the high performance profile, maximum display brightness and activated radios and keyboard back light. With this, the UX31A is just ahead of the UX31E, but falls behind the UX32VD.
To replace the integrated battery, Asus tentatively quotes a price of 80-90 Euro (~$100 to $115). Apple offers the same service for $129.
英特尔主要承诺新的Ivy Bridge平台的图形性能。但它是提高电池的使用时间呢？新的，耗电的IPS显示面板在运行时有负面影响吗？像往常一样，我们使用BatteryEater的工具来测试此。阅读器的测试中，最好成绩的是一个强大的10小时，48分钟，当模拟阅读的文件与最低显示亮度，节约能源配置文件和禁用所有无线电。
在互联网冲浪试验（150 CD/平方米显示器的亮度，无线收音机积极，规范的网上冲浪，打开一个页面每40秒），我们到达了一个相当低4小时42分钟。去年的UX31E仅管理一个最大的7小时30分钟，但在冲浪测试，其持有多一点的时间在5小时9分钟。的的ZENBOOK UX32VD也已经达到了7小时8分钟最多只有4个小时和18分钟的冲浪测试和落后。
在BatteryEater经典测试（最坏的情况），我们成功了148分钟（2小时28分钟）的高性能配置，最大显示亮度和启动收音机和键盘背光。由此，UX31A前夕的UX31E，但后面的UX32VD下降。
要更换内置电池，华硕试探性地引用了80-90欧元（约100美元到115美元）的价格。苹果公司提供相同的服务，为129美元。
Verdict
The last generation UX31E was a well-designed laptop which had very few faults that included the glossy display and low contrast. We are extremely happy with the successor. The UX31A improves on all the gripes we had with the display. The new non-reflective Full-HD IPS panel is a joy to work with and delivers some of the best brightness and contrast values on a Windows laptop. A high quality aluminum unibody construction lends some structural integrity to the laptop that is seldom seen in devices. Most of the ports with their respective adapter cables are included. There is also the back-lit keyboard that is more usable than the ones found on the UX32VD.
The Ivy Bridge update as well as the ADATA MX11 SSD has improved the performance to a great extent. The user experience with the faster SSD is much improves. There is a significant improvement in the GPU allows for better multimedia consumption.
It is to be noted that there was a slight increase in emissions but nothing that detracts from its appeal. Still, the UX31A is generally a whisper-quiet companion, with surface temperatures always within limits. Battery run times depending on the usage scenario are either a little worse or a little better than last year's model.
In conclusion, we find the Asus Zenbook Prime UX31A to be a successfully executed update. The old model's strengths were kept and the few weaknesses eliminated. In search of a mobile office companion, the Asus UX31A turns out to be a near perfect choice. Possible points of criticism are limited and could be viewed as nitpicking on a high level (fixed RAM, missing DisplayPort and Gigabit LAN).
Update: Due to component shortages, The Asus UX31A comes with two different SSDs, one being the ADATA MX11 with the Sandforce controller that is much faster than the Sandisk U100 which is the other. According to user reports, this affects both 128GB and 256GB versions (see above). There is no way to see which model SSD is installed any of the versions of the ultrabook without starting the system. The "Sandforce Driven" sticker on the package does not serve as reliable indication.
最后一代UX31E是一个精心设计的笔记本电脑，有极少数的故障，其中包括镜面显示屏和低对比度。我们非常高兴的继任者。所有的抱怨，我们曾与显示UX31A提高。新的非反射的全高清IPS面板是一种快乐的工作，并提供了一些最佳的亮度和对比度值的Windows笔记本电脑上。一个高品质的铝合金一体成型机身的建设增添一些结构完整的笔记本电脑，是很少见到的设备。各自的适配器电缆的端口。也有背光键盘是更可用比上UX32VD发现。
Ivy Bridge的更新以及ADATA MX11 SSD性能在很大程度上提高了。更快的SSD是提高了用户体验。是一个显着改善在GPU允许更好的多媒体消耗。
这是要注意，有一个轻微的排放量，但没有增加，有损从它的吸引力。不过，UX31A是通常是耳语般安静的伴侣，表面温度总是在一定范围内。电池的使用时间根据使用场景是有点差或略优于去年的模式。
总之，我们找到华硕ZENBOOK总理UX31A的是一个成功执行的更新。旧的模式的优势，保持和消除一些弱点。在搜索的移动办公伴侣，华硕UX31A原来是一个近乎完美的选择。可能的批评点是有限的，可以被看作是在一个较高的水平（固定RAM，缺少DisplayPort和千兆网卡）挑剔的。
更新：由于组件短缺，华硕UX31A有两个不同的固态硬盘，一个是ADATA MX11的SandForce控制器的速度远远超过SanDisk的U100，这是其他。据用户报告，这会影响128GB和256GB版本（见上文）。有没有办法看到的模型SSD在不启动系统的情况下安装任何版本的Ultrabook。可靠的指标，不作为“的SandForce驱动”的贴纸贴在包装上。
