Unlike the Acer’s Intel Core i7-6500U processor, Zenbook’s processor is Intel Core i5-6200U which means that the Acer processor is better. This can be confirmed by the fact that the speed of Acer is 2.5 GHz which is better and faster than the Zenbook’s 2.3 GHz processing speed.

However, both of them have an 8GB ram, which make them relatively good when it comes to data processing and storage. For Acer, the inbuilt HDD is 512GB, which means that Zenbook is better as its inbuilt HDD is 1TB.

For display feature, both of them have 13.3 inches screen size and 1920 x 1080 maximum display resolution (dpi). This is relatively high and makes for a quality image viewing and gaming purpose. In terms of Chipset, Acer makes use of Intel HD 520 Graphics, which is better than the NVIDA GeForce 940M that the Zenbook has.

For connectivity, both of them have USB 3.0 ports with 4.0 Bluetooth, inbuilt camera and microphone. However, Zenbook has both SD and MMC digital media reader, which is better than Acer that only has SD as it will allow Zenbook users to view more quality media. Both of them utilizes Li-Ion battery, which allow for powerful storage capacity. They also have Windows 10 as their OS. The most striking difference is that the Acer comes with 2 years warranty, which is 12 months more than the Zenbook’s 1 year warranty. The Zenbok also weights higher with 1.45kg when compared with the 1.27g weighed by the Acer.
