ASUS unloaded some impressive new hardware during Computex 2016. The Ultra-sleek and light ZenBook 3 is ASUS' take on the Retina MacBook and even comes in similar gold and silver colours as well as a blue variant. The ZenBook 3 may look like a Retina MacBook, right down to its single USB Type-C port (groan),  12.5-inch display (slightly bigger than the MacBook's 12-inch display), but it improves over the Apple subnotebook in various ways.

The ASUS ZenBook 3 can run up to Core i7 processors more powerful than the MacBook's Core m processor) and it offers 9 hours of battery life. ASUS expects to sell the ZevBook 3 starting at US $999 in the next few months.
