    Mr. Peter Chang, Regional Head, South Asia & Country Manager, System Business Group,
ASUS India said, "We are persistently focusing towards delivering value products with
premium feel and functionality and the introduction of EeeBook is testimony of the same
fact. With streamlined curves, compact dimensions and a tactile finish, it will complement
all your on-the-go computing requirements. We are elated to bring EeeBook which is lighter
than any 11-inch notebook and employs a simple yet elegant design."

    Compact, Ergonomic Design

    ASUS EeeBook X205 is designed for students and young professionals who are constantly
on-the-go; it features a compact design that weighs less than 1kg. Despite its 11.6-inch
size, it boasts a touchpad that is 36% larger than those found on similar sized notebooks,
and is identical in size to touchpads found on 14-inch ASUS models. Smart Gesture
technology allows users to get the most out of Windows 8.1 using just the touchpad, with
no need for a mouse.

    EeeBook X205 has a full size, one piece seamless chiclet keyboard with 1.6mm of key
travel for extremely comfortable typing. Aesthetically, it boasts smooth curves and
tactile surfaces and is available in four chic colors - black, white, gold, and red.

    Connected Standby Technology for a Smartphone-like User Experience

    ASUS EeeBook X205 is designed to give users a smartphone-like computing experience,
keeping them socially connected by allowing them to receive emails, updates,
notifications, and messages from social media platforms, even with the notebook in standby
mode, or with the lid closed. It has an almost instantaneous resume from sleep mode and
has up to 12 hours of battery life1. It has over 14 days of standby time, and
automatically backs up data when battery level drops below 5%.

    Full Compatibility, With Windows 8.1

    ASUS EeeBook X205 makes use of Windows 8.1, giving users added flexibility over
notebooks that use web-based operating systems. Unlike notebooks with web-based operating
systems, Windows 8.1 gives users full compatibility with a wide range of software and
hardware. EeeBook X205 runs Microsoft Office smoothly online and offline, allowing users
to make full use of web-based apps and pre-installed software like Skype and Photoshop.
Windows 8.1 provides full compatibility with a wide range of USB devices; with X205 giving
users a variety of ways to print documents either through a USB connection, wirelessly, or
