On the storage capacity, thankfully Asus offers options for users, 256 GB and 512 GB, plus a little extra storage space for those in need. This customizable storage has given Zenbook 3 a thumb up for the advantage.

On the keyboards and touchpad, both offer decent design but Apple Macbook features keyboard that is well-spaced, more elegant with comfortable touchpad.

Asus laptop price range is between $999 and $1,999. Macbook? It is $200 or $300 more expensive than Zenbook 3.
