1. For full-time professional photographers with a steady workload of assignments and editing chores, the most recommended laptop computer for them is the 15” or 17” MacBook Pro. It has the powerful processor, RAM and storage space that the pros must absolutely have; plus, it’s the only platform on which they can use Final Cut.

2. You may not be able to justify spending approximately $1,750 for a 15” MacBook Pro or approximately $2,400 for the 17-inch model because you don’t have the same stringent requirements of a full-time professional photographer. You’re an amateur, a serious enthusiast, who will be very well served by a 13” laptop…and for considerably less money.

3. For many, the first option that leaps to mind is the 13” MacBook Air. That’s fine if you’ve drunk the Apple Koolaid, but if you’re a dedicated PC user, then you need to know the secret behind the Asus Zenbook UX31E-DH53 Laptop.

4. It’s a Windows-equivalent “Ultrabook” laptop that competes head-to-head with the MacBook Air in every category. See why the newest Zenbook is one of the best laptops for photo editing in 2019.

5. The comparison begins with how well Asus interpreted the Apple look of thin sleekness. Asus used the same unibody aluminum, but added design elements that make the Zenbook every bit as eye-catching as a MacBook Air.

At a maximum thickness of 0.71 inches and weighing 3.1 pounds, the Asus Zenbook is in the same size range as the MacBook Air, Acer S3 and Lenovo IdeaPad U300s.

6. The Asus Zenbook’s screen resolution is 1,600x900, which not only surpasses the somewhat standard 1,366x768 on many other Ultrabooks and common laptops, but also beats the Air’s 1,400x900.

7. Many Asus Zenbook users are excited about the audio quality of the Bang & Olufson speakers, which clearly outclass the sound from most other laptops.

8. Although the 13-inch Asus Zenbook (as well as the MacBook Air) is a “photo-lite” laptop, it matches larger laptops in terms of ports, with USB 3.0 and HDMI. The dongles for VGA and Ethernet does a better job managing the limited number of ports compared to Air and other Ultrabooks.

9. Third-party testing of the 1.7 GHz Core i5-2557M processor clearly demonstrated the performance superiority of the Asus Zenbook compared to the Acer Aspire S3 and Lenovo IdeaPad U300s.

10. The Asus Zenbook UX31E-DH53 Laptop has a number of interesting and helpful screen widgets, including battery life, but not just as a single value. It shows how much time it will last for game play, office operation, video playback and Web browsing. Another desktop widget is Instant On, which reactivates the laptop from the sleep mode in approximately 2 seconds.

11. To make as equal and as fair a comparison as possible, the basic 13-inch Zenbook includes a Core i5 processor, 4GB of RAM and 128GB SSD storage, and is priced at $1,099. The equivalently equipped MacBook Air is $200 more and the Lenovo IdeaPad U300s $100. Stuff to the gills, the Asus Zenbook has a Core i7 processor and 256GB SSD storage, and a price tag of $1,449. Not only is this price $100 less than the equally loaded MacBook Air, but the Zenbook has a better processor. That is what they call real value!

It’s a secret every photography hobbyist and enthusiast should know that prefers the world of Windows rather than an orchard of Apples.
