Asus Zenbook UX21 Ultrabook

An Ultrabook is a higher-end type of subnotebook defined by Intel. Intel has registered the name as a trademark.[1] Ultrabooks are designed to feature reduced bulk without compromising performance and battery life. They use low-power Intel Core processors, solid-state drives, and unibody chassis to help meet these criteria.[2] Due to their limited size, they typically omit common laptop features such as optical disc drives and Ethernet ports.[3]

History

In 2011, Intel Capital announced a new fund to support startups working on technologies in line with the company's concept for next generation notebooks.[4] The company set aside a $300 million fund to be spent over the next three to four years in areas related to Ultrabooks.[4] Intel announced the Ultrabook concept at Computex in 2011. The Ultrabook would be a thin (less than 0.8 inches thick[5]) notebook that utilized Intel processors[5] and could also incorporate tablet features such as a touch screen and long battery life.[4][5]

By this marketing initiative and an associated $300 million fund, Intel hoped to influence the slumping PC market against rising competition from smartphones[1] and tablet computers such as the iPad,[6] which are typically powered by competing ARM-based processors.[7]

Acer Aspire S3 Ultrabook with SSD

The Ultrabook directly competes against Apple’s MacBook Air, which has similar form specifications and is powered by Intel CPUs, but runs Mac OS X.[8][9][10]

At the Intel Developer Forum in 2011, four Taiwan ODMs showed prototype Ultrabooks that used Intel's Ivy Bridge chips.[11] Intel plans to reduce power consumption of its chips for Ultrabooks, like Ivy Bridge processors, which will feature 17W default thermal design power.[12]

At a presentation at the Consumer Electronics Show, an Intel manager stated that market analysis revealed that screen size motivated some of the reluctance to switch to 13" Ultrabooks. As a result, Intel planned to ensure, through cooperation with manufacturers, a 14 or 15-inch screen on 50% of the 75 Ultrabook models that would likely come to market in 2012.[13][14]

IHS iSuppli had originally forecast that 22 million Ultrabooks would be shipped by the end of 2012, and 61 million would be shipped in 2013. By October 2012, IHS had revised its projections down significantly, to 10 million units sold in 2012 and 44 million for 2013.[2] High pricing, with most Ultrabooks selling at $1000 USD instead of the more mainstream $600 USD (as of 2012), made them too expensive to drive widespread adoption. There was also the shift in the market away from PCs as a whole (including Ultrabooks) and towards smartphones and tablet computers (particularly the Apple iPad) as the personal computing devices of choice.[3][4]

While Apple's MacBook lines have not been immune to this consumer trend towards mobile devices[5], they still managed to ship 2.8 million MacBooks in Q2 2012 (the majority of which are the MacBook Air) compared to 500,000 total Ultrabooks[6][7], despite there been dozens of Ultrabooks from various manufacturers on the market while Apple only offered 11-inch and 13-inch models of the Macbook Air.[8] It appeared that many OEMs were unable to offer an Ultrabook at a comparable spec and price to the MacBook Air[9], and while some Ultrabooks were able to claim individual distinctions such as being the lightest or thinnest, the Air was still regarded by many reviewers as the best all-around Ultrabook. Furthermore the Air was among the first to receive Intel's latest CPUs before other PC manufacturers, and Mac OS X has gained market share on Windows in recent years.[10][11]

Intel has banked on the release of Windows 8 as well as new form factors (convertible form factors with rotating or detachable screens, dubbed by some commentators as "mutants"[12]) and features (accelerometers and gyroscopes for touchscreens, hand-gesture recognition) to build demand for Ultrabooks.[13]

Specifications

Intel requires manufacturers to meet certain specifications in order to market a laptop as an Ultrabook.[15] These requirements change with each release of Intel's mobile platform.
