      Incredibly slim and light

      Despite a slender profile that tapers to 6mm and a low 1.9kg weight, the ZENBOOK™ UX42VS features an internal optical drive for enjoying DVD movies on its brilliant 14” HD display. Available with an Intel® Core™ i3, i5 or i7 ULV processor and 6GB memory, the UX42VS also features powerful NVIDIA® GT 645M graphics with 1GB GDDR5 VRAM and up to 1TB high-performance hybrid hard drive storage.

      The ZENBOOK™ UX42VS features NVIDIA GT mobile graphics for outstanding visual performance.

      Phenomenal beauty expressed

      Finely Crafted Design

      The beautiful slender profile of ZENBOOK™ UX42VS is the result of intense research and development into sophisticated engineering techniques inspired by those used to create high-precision mechanical timepieces. The unique 'spun-metal' finish of the ZENBOOK™ UX42VS lid alone requires a 32-step manufacturing process, and the finely crafted aluminium case features a combination of gentle curves and a sleek contour that narrows to a mere 6mm. With its stunning design and incredible performance, ZENBOOK™ UX42VS is a perfectly balanced ultraportable.
