Chairman Jonney Shih today hosted a special press event at Computex 2019 in
celebration of the company's 30th anniversary, where he unveiled a series of
limited-edition devices created to commemorate the milestone and introduced the
groundbreaking Prime Utopia concept motherboard, ZenBook Pro Duo and ZenBook
Duo laptops, and ZenScreen Touch portable monitor.
The ASUS
30th anniversary special-edition lineup features new versions of the ZenFone 6
Edition 30 smartphone, ZenBook Edition 30 laptop and Prime X299 Edition 30
motherboard, all featuring a special stylized “A” monogram signifying ASUS
values and history created by ASUS Design Center to celebrate the anniversary
as well as unique designs that embody the ASUS focus on refined aesthetics,
outstanding performance and delivering exceptional user experiences.
The foundation of the “A” monogram is a representation of
the Chinese symbol for people and shows the humanitarian side of ASUS. The top
part creates an arrow shape signifying the ASUS ability to overcome obstacles
and ascend industry norms, and the overall shape when flipped resembles a
heart, which speaks to the heartfelt affection and endearment for life.
"ASUS
is honored to have been serving the hardcore tech community, enthusiast,
gamers, creators, and tasteful consumers for the last 30 years," said ASUS
Chairman, Jonney Shih. "I am tremendously excited and proud that we have
stayed true to our relentless engineering origin on this incredible journey —
one that has made us wiser and stronger together. We aspire to continue to
create the most ubiquitous, intelligent, heartfelt, and joyful smart life for
everyone for decades to come."
