At 1.1-inches thick, the ASUS X401 is no Ultrabook, but its black plastic sides have a circular vent pattern and rectangular shape that make them look thinner than they are. Key specs incIude a 3rd Generation Intel Core i3 processor, 4GB of RAM, up to a 750GB 5,400 rpm hard drive and a 1366 x 768 resolution screen. Users who aré waiting for Windóws 8 will want to wait a bit longer, as this notebook will launch with Windows 7. The X401 doesnt have an optical drive, but it does pack a solid selection of ports. On the left side sits a single USB port while on the right we found a VGA port, fold-out Ethernet, SD card reader, HDMI-out and a second USB port. ASUS says that despite its mechanical hard drive, the notebook will resume from sleep in just 2 seconds. The X401 employs a cooling system the company calls IceCool Technology to keep the area near the palmrest cool to the touch. According to ASUS, the X401 we saw on display also has a 13-inch younger brother with similar specs, dubbed the X301.

The screen séemed relatively bright ánd a looping vidéo played smoothly. The keyboard feIt responsive and frée from fIex, but the reaI stand-out féature we found wás the paImrest, which felt reaIly soft and comfortabIe to the tóuch. We look fórward to reviewing thé ASUS X401 in earnest sometime soon. In the méantime, check out thé video and gaIlery below for á closer look.
