    Stylish 13” notebook

    The new U30SD presents an impressive style of compact finesse, with its light aluminum alloy construction, chiclet keyboard and oversized palm rests. It proves the thin and light segment doesn’t have to come in uncomfortable and drab design!
    And at less than 30mm thick and 2Kg in weight, this tantalizing machine goes wherever you go.

    Small in stature, huge in power

    The U30SD fields new 2nd generation Intel® Core™ i3 and i5 processors for unrelenting speed for every task. ASUS once more proves spectacular, lean design shouldn’t come at the expense of generous features and performance.

    U30 complete portability with optical media

    Excellent gaming power

    NVIDIA GEFORCE

    The dedicated NVIDIA® GeForce™ GT 520M with 1GB VRAM makes it possible to do everything on one compact notebook – productivity, web, video, music and of course gaming. The capable GPU offers a major upgrade over those underpowered competing notebooks, plus it supports NVIDIA® CUDA parallel computing for optimized performance and great energy savings.

    Complete portability with optical media

    The U30SD doesn’t cut any corners. While many other light notebooks lose weight by dropping features, it includes an optical disc drive so you don’t have to mess with external devices, wires and drivers. Instead, you have the peace of mind of physical storage and backup.

    10-hour battery life

    While the new U30SD packs more features than much larger notebooks, it operates with great thrift for super-long battery life. Enjoy all-day computing with over 10 hours on a single battery charge - no need to stop and rush for a wall socket. Just sit down, load up and get working.
