Zenbook NX500 4K Ultrabook Announced by ASUS

ASUS announced its latest addition to the multiple-award-winning Zenbook Ultrabook series, the NX500, stated to come in a new sleek and elegant all-aluminium chassis and with state-of-the-art components. In addition to the latter, the NX500 is said to pack the new ASUS VisualMaster display technology and the world’s first 15.6-inch 4K UHD touchscreen, using 3M QDEF technology in order to deliver vivid and natural colour.

In terms of performance, the Zenbook NX500 boasts Intel’s Core i7 Quad-Core CPU and NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 850M graphics, featuring 2 GB of GDDR5 video memory. ASUS also provides customers with the ability to choose between one 512 GB PCI Express x4 SSD or up to two SATA 3 SSDs, configurable as a RAID 0 array, when it comes to the NX500’s disk space capabilities. Other aspects of the NX500 include three USB 3.0 ports, next-generation Broadcom dual-band three-stream 802.11ac Wi-Fi and integrated Bluetooth 4.0.

The NX500 also comes with the SonicMaster Premium audio solution, featuring the ICEpower and Bang & Olufsen technology. The sound solution is said to deliver a deep bass, rich and crystal-clear vocals, having a wide frequency range and high volume levels. Together with the MaxxAudio Master by Waves, recipient of a Technical GRAMMY award, it brings professional-level sound processing and an enhanced listening experience to the NX500.

The VisualMaster display technology is said to provide the NX500 with incredible clarity, accuracy and vibrant lifelike colour, delivering stunning detailed images to the 4K UHD 15.6-inch IPS touchscreen display. The 3M QDEF technology is also said to use quantum dots in order to provide an ultra-wide colour gamut of 100% NTSC, 108% Adobe RGB and 146% sRGB, while having a wide viewing angle of 178-degrees.

ASUS’ Zenbook NX500 is said to boast a new refined slim shape, having it carved from a single block of aluminium and featuring tapered slim edges. The keyboard is also said to be a work of art, having it as a one-piece frameless construction, featuring chicklet design and backlighting controlled by an ambient-light sensor.
