  1. Hey, I've been looking everywhere for the ux21a. Where did you buy yours? Also, does the ux21a allow you to run the i7 at 16W? You can check under your power/battery settings. Click "Change advanced power settings, and scroll down to "Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework Settings." My ux31a (core i5) can only run at 13W 1.0GHz or 1.7GHz, which is rather irritating since it's supposed to be a 17W chip.

    I just bought a UX21A here in Hong Kong. They have had them for a few weeks now here.

    Spec is:

    UX21A-1AK1

    11.6 FHD IPS Matte LED 1920 × 1080 (AMAZING!)

    6 Cell 4800

    I7 Ivy Bridge CPU

    256GB SSD

    4GB DDR3 RAM

    Win 7 ($15 upgrade to Windows 8 when it’s released)

    2 year worldwide warranty.

    Backlit Keyboard

    I’ve had it a few days now and so far I have no issues with WIFI. The keyboard is nice to type on. The trackpad takes a little tweaking but is no way as bad as people say. The screen is sooooo good with the matte finish and IPS...a little bleeding on the screen but nothing to worry about. Again the sizing DPI needs some tweaking but it’s worth it…I’ve never seen colours look so rich and I’m looking at the web world in a whole new light.

    It boots in around 5 seconds. Battery life at the moment is around 5h 58mins. The screen does have a tendency to drop back a little when fully maxed out but it’s not an annoyance.

    Cost me 11750 HK$ which translates to GBP £968 or US $1514

    Again..that screen is awesome…sorry Mac Air but what I look at when I’m doing my stuff is important to me more than anything so have to see..sorry airs but you don’t compete with this one.
