Intel defined Ultrabook to both thin body, high performance, fast response, reliable, long battery life and more features, and the best prices less than $ 1,000. The use of low-power 18W TDP CPU, 35W TDP CPU performance compared to using the notebook slightly lower, but sufficient to meet the needs of everyday applications. It also requires the battery life to cover the entire working hours (8 hours), and provides Intel Quick Sync Video WiDi wireless video encoding acceleration and display, fast response, very helpful for the user experience features.
