$$$$$+ New Asus Zenbook Prime +$$$$$

[Dylan91]

Hello, is there anyone who knows when asus zenbook prime will be arriving in singapore? It was released in taiwan already and the zenbook website is already updated with zenbook prime information. Every reply is greatly appreciated.




*Anyone also waiting for zenbook prime?

 

[horacio]

yeap i'm waiting for zenbook prime. not too sure when it'll be out.

 

[Dylan91]

there is even an updated version of zenbook prime with touchscreen capability coupled with windows 8 but i guess this will only be available next year. just hoping that the windows 7 version of zenbook prime will reach our shore within june

camping for the launch as well:X

 

[Dylan91]

we could even buy as a group if there is enough people, i am sure there will be shops willing to offer us group price that is cheaper.

intending to buy 2 13.3" zenbook prime, 1 i5 for my fren and 1 i7 for myself. price will be roughly the same as the price when zenbook just came out.

please indicate the spec and size of the zenbook prime if you are interested

second that. i hope they can priced it competitively with mac air given that asus is always a value for money brand.

Asus Zenbook Prime Gets Aussie Price | Gizmodo Australia

i5 model going to be priced at AUD1399 if based on loose forex transaction, it could cost 1798 or 1698 in sg?

Abit ridiculous.. might as well get a macbook air

 

[Dylan91]

my guess will be that i5 being priced at sgd1698 and i7 priced at sgd1898.

anyway still no news of when we will be getting it

 

[bitsoffish]

im going for the ux21a and the AUD899 seems pretty reasonable for something like that.

 

[PC_Dreams]

News from Asus says it will be in Singapore around 6-8 weeks from now.

It will be name as UX21A and UX31A.

Price info not updated yet.

Can label it as a gift to avoid taxes no? Plus warranty is international so should be no problem

 

[lonelyboy88]

Issit? I am kinda noob at this. Never really ordered before from overseas before but i really need a laptop asap. Say if i ship via vpost, i ask the person to label it as gift? Btw has anyone came across this website? Thinking of getting it from here.

The Asus UX32VD is available in Malaysia.

RRP 2999.

Unfortunately the UX21A and UX31A still not available

Here is the product link

I think they made some mistakes in the spec sheet. Ivy Bridge CPU running Intel HD3000 :/ Think the screen resolution might be a mistake too.
