A few days later, the Taipei Computer Exhibition was about to open. Asustek was the first to release their new ZenBook product, ZenBook Pro UX550, before the exhibition. According to the official data of ASUS, this ZenBook Pro UX550 uses the seventh generation of Core processor (i5 7300HQ/i7 7700HQ), with a 15.6-inch wide color gamut 4K screen, covering 100% sRGB; At the same time, it is also equipped with 1050Ti (up to 4GB video memory version, 1050Ti performance is equivalent to 970M of the previous generation); In terms of interface, it is equipped with two full power Thunderbolt 3 interfaces (40Gbps), one HDMI, one 3.5mm headphone interface, two USB 3.0 interfaces and one SD card slot; In terms of endurance, ASUS officially claims that it can last for 12 to 14 hours, and it only takes 49 minutes to flush its power from 0 to 60%; In terms of price, the starting price of ZenBook Pro UX550 is 1299 dollars (about 8900 yuan).
Of course, if you only look at the above equipment as the author does, you won't find anything special about the ZenBook Pro UX550. Its biggest feature is that it is only 1.8KG in weight and 18.9mm in thickness. It has an i7-7700HQ+4K wide color gamut screen+1050Ti 4GB.
From the perspective of basic configuration, it still follows the high performance, light and thin route, benchmarking the Dell XPS 15.6 series, but unfortunately the old XPS 15.6 uses a 960M graphics card, while the new XPS is only equipped with a 1050, but this ZenBook Pro UX550 is 1050Ti. We need to know that even Lenovo Saver, Samsung Dark Dragon Knight and other products under the name of game book are only equipped with 1050Ti, and Dell's game box is only equipped with 1050 Ti It seems that 1050Ti still has a lot of room to play in thin and light books this year. We have reason to believe that more manufacturers will launch thin and light books equipped with 1050Ti in the future.
