A wide spectrum of award-winning products

ASUS products took home a total of 17 awards* this year across six award categories, surpassing last year's tally of 15. The ASUS Zenbook Ultrabook took honors in this year's Computer Hardware & Components category thanks to its sleek lines that house a powerful Intel® CoreTM processor, fast SSD storage and a 2560 x 1440 WQHD capacitive multi-touch 13.3-inch display. In the Computer Peripherals category, the ASUS MB168 Series Portable USB-powered Monitor wowed judges with its slim, lightweight design and the ability to receive power and video signals supplied over a standard USB 3.0 cable.

Judges were also impressed with the Miracast Dongle, an entry under the Portable Media Players & Accessories category. At roughly the same size as a standard highlighter pen, ASUS Miracast Dongle provides dual-band wireless streaming for lag-free transmission of Full HD movies, videos, and photos from mobile devices onto a HDTV or monitor.
