I’m pretty sure I don’t have to say very much about the words and imagery in this tweet (which the company has since deleted) and point out what’s wrong with it. Not just because it’s mostly obvious, but also because one Twitter user summed it up and slayed ASUS in under 140 characters better than I ever could:

@IncreXible isn’t wrong, either: Several reviews from around the Web highlight the ZenBook 3’s less-than-stellar battery life.
That’s enough internet for today, ASUS.
Update: ASUS actually shared this moronic tweet before the one above:
