ZenBook Pro is designed to be the perfect traveling companion: it turns on in an instant so it’s always ready to go, and it lasts for up to two weeks in standby mode. Your data is always safe too, as ZenBook Pro automatically saves it to the hard disk if the battery charge level drops below 5%.

Connect Even Faster. Thunderbolt® 3 and USB 3.1 – on a single Type-C port!

ZenBook Pro UX501VX introduces the latest Thunderbolt® 3 connectivity from Intel®, which uses a USB Type-C port to give you unprecedented flexibility and hyper-fast data transfer speeds — up to 40Gbit/s via Thunderbolt® 3 , and up to 10Gbit/s via USB 3.1! This incredible technology makes UX501VX the ultimate mobile powerhouse, allowing you to transfer even the largest files in mere seconds. And that’s not all — ZenBook Pro also has three SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ports, which feature exclusive ASUS USB Charger+ technology that charges mobile devices much quicker than standard USB ports — even when ZenBook Pro is powered off.
