Amazon.ca: Asus 13.3" Ultrabook with IPS, 1920x1080, i5-3317U, 4GB, 128GB SSD, Win 8 $659 + Free Ship

Still on the lookout for a thin and travel-friendly laptop? Right now, Amazon.ca has the Asus Zenbook Prime 13.3" Ultrabook on sale for $659 which is a sweet deal considering what you're getting under the hood. Ultrabooks usually start in the $800 range so here's an opportunity to get a pretty decent model at a discounted price. Its notable features include:
  • 13.3" Full HD IPS Anti-Glare Panel Display with 1920x1080 Resolution
  • Intel Core i5-3317U
  • 128GB Solid State Drive
  • 4GB RAM
  • 802.11A/G/N+WiDI, HD Camera, Bluetooth 4.0
  • Windows 8
  • 2.86 Pounds
  • 7 Hour Battery Life
For just under $700 you're getting a lot of power and portability with this unit. It's got a capable third-generation i5 processor, a speedy 128GB solid state drive and enough RAM for those who just want to get work done. It's not a gaming machine by any means, but the 2.86 pound 13.3" frame and 7 hour battery life make it an all-day type machine. One of its more understated features is the full HD IPS display with 1920x1080 resolution -- a welcomed addition which usually ends up costing quite a fair bit more in higher end laptops.
The deal is live now and shipping is free. Amazon estimates the wait time to be within the 1-2 month range but, in our experience, it usually doesn't take that long.
