The Asus U47 is one of the upcoming laptops with Ivy Bridge Intel processors. The aluminum-cladded U47 belongs to the thin-and-light U-series and is a successor of the U46, retaining thin LCD bezel. The shape of the 3-pound Asus U47 has changed and it ditches hinge-forward design. The next-gen model is slightly thinner and measures 1 inch versus previous 1.08. Besides 3rd generation Intel Core processors, the new Asus will sport up to 1TB of hard drive storage, built-in optical drive, and an 8-hour battery.

The laptop will be available in two variants: the Asus U47A with the Intel HD integrated graphics, and the U47VC with an Nvidia dedicateg GPU.

Pricing is yet to be determined and the notebook is expected to arrive in Q2, according to Notebook Italia.
