Designed to be ultraportable, the PU301 uses a one-piece build, creating a subtle and completely consistent look. The design extends to the underside and removes unneeded clutter with a stylish brushed metal finish.
Business places great importance on keyboards, as they are vital for professional communications. Asus engineers have fine-tuned the PU301’s keyboard, providing a better typing experience to maintain comfort during long hours of work. The keyboard also provides a full numeric pad with page up/page down keys to increase efficiency when doing calculations and reading long documents.
Asus have improved the Touchpad too… it’s now 47% larger than touch pads found on similar laptops and supports responsive and accurate multitouch control. With more gestures detected, it effectively replaces the mouse, offering an intuitive input option. Multitouch input allows effortless accuracy without a mouse, including two-finger web page scroll, image zoom/rotate and three-finger tapping to mimic a right-click. Workflow is streamlined with gesture control, especially multi-step tasks such as presentations and research projects.
Matte screen materials prevent unwanted reflections to reduce eye fatigue, and also also stop unsightly fingerprint smudges for more attractive presentations. To prolong productivity, ergonomic, textured, palm rest areas provide a pleasant and solid feel so you can keep working without slowing down.
Business and organisational users demand higher standards and greater reliability, so all Asus Pro series laptops are strictly quality-tested to much higher industry standards than mainstream laptops. They prove highly durable in drop tests, hinge cycle tests and panel pressure testing. They also ship with an anti-shock hard drive that includes a triple protection mechanism to ensure data is always safe.
