Hi sifus, wanna ask for recommendation with following aspects:
1. Preferred Brand : Dell (others are acceptable too)
2. Budget : Rm3500
3. Usage : Little gaming (Good audio and graphics)
4. Preferred laptop/screen size : Prefer an ultrabook, 14' screen size is good
Did some researches, found these two which quite suit my taste :
Asus zenbook prime
Dell inspiron 14z
Which one is more worthy? Or any better recommendations? Thanks a lot.

on paper dell insprson 14z (specs and price is better) is ok... if you go feel and touch the unit yourself, the asus zenbook prime will win in terms or built, quality, keyboard and design, normal wifi browsing using will give you up to 7 hours battery life... worthless to mention the zenbook prime UX31A is the current only 13 incher with FHD and matte screen reso... the windows font will abit small you need to scale it up(i set 128% larger) ... same as browser (i set default zoom 144%)...
the only problem for UX31A i5 version is only 128GB, you might need top up and the SD card slot is protruded out when you insert it... basically is a mirrored windows MBA...

Hi 
So I've basically narrowed down my options to the two laptops below:
ASUS Zenbook Prime UX31A
DELL XPS 13 Ultrabook
The only difference I can spot is that ASUS is running on 3rd Gen Intel processor while DELL is on 2nd Gen. Anything else I'm missing?
Or is there some other models that I should consider? Also the ASUS has a backlight keyboard right?
Anyplace which has these 2 models in stock? Been around mid-valley and its seems they are out of stock

asus keyboard is almost 90% of macbook quality.... go feel it, the feeling typing on it is very good... if you plan buy dell xps 13, wait it refreshed with ivy bridge... dont buy sandy bridge UB anymore... the graphic performance is about 40-50% difference between two architecture...
asus UX31A have backlit keyboard with ambient sensor... ellen type multi touch touchpad... 5-7 hours browsing.... only thing is mini hdmi port not included (need buy it for RM50 i think)
too bad 4GB ram is soldiered inside.... if is your conceren can get UX32VD, where is slot in 2x2GB can replace with 2x4GB in future if need
