The new Asus S series of ultrabooks offer mobility, performance, hybrid SSD/hard drive storage plus an optical drive in a 21mm form factor.

The ultrabooks meet all Ultrabook criteria, and feature an exquisite luxurious design. The S Series packs 3rd generation Intel Core processors up to an i7, alongside discrete NVIDIA GT 635M graphics. Significantly, it offers fast-response hybrid SSD/hard drive storage and an optical drive - all in one sleek Ultrabook.

Users also enjoy a solid back-assembled keyboard and the Smart Gesture touchpad and Super Hybrid Engine II-based 2-second instant on resume.

The first thing standing out about the S Series is the 21mm profile. In terms of finish and styling, it employs grey-colored hairline treatment on covers, with a one-piece molded top casing.

Exclusive ASUS SonicMaster Lite audio provides better sound performance in every application, including music, movie watching, and gaming.

Data is kept safe with automatic backup should the battery drop below 5% charge.
