Last fall, ASUS released UL80Vt, a 14-inch notebook that coupled an ultra-low voltage processor with switchable graphics, in addition to 9 hours battery life, users can also get into some gaming. The new UL80Jt-A1 ($ 869 as configured) is still switchable graphics, but it comes with Nvidia’s Optimus technology, the switching for you. ASUS also swapped the ultra low voltage processor for an Intel Core i3 CPU, which delivers more power at the expense of battery life. Yet it is hard to argue with over 6 hours long, making this machine a brushed aluminum solid choice for multimedia mavens.

The UL80Jt-A1 is completely black with an attractive brushed metal lid. The deck is glossy plastic, while the bottom is matt plastic. This uniformity of color and design gives the system a sleek but understated look, but tends to pick up fingerprints. In many ways, this notebook is just like the Samsung Q430-11, except the Samsung has a silver cover.

At 4.8 pounds and 13.5 x 9.6 x 1.1 inches, the UL80Jt-A1 is the same size and weight as the UL80Jv, that is not the thinnest and lightest 14-inch notebook on the block. However, it is almost identical in weight and size of the Gateway ID49C, and 0.2 pounds lighter than the Samsung Q430-11. The overall feel is solid, but this 14-inch laptop is still reasonably portable.

The 14.0-inch, 1366 x 768 glossy display on the UL80Jt-A1 provide clear, sharp images in our test. While watching a DVD of Dark City and a 720p video stream of Fringe from Fox.com, playback was smooth and the colors were true with minimal noise and not grainy. However, viewing angles leave something to be desired. At 45 degrees from the horizontal center, clarity, color is good enough if we look at the desktop, but when watching video, color began to turn and wash out, to say nothing of the reflections.

Sound quality of the front speakers was very loud as well when watching videos and listening to music. While listening to Alicia Keys’ “If I Is not Got You” on Pandora, the piano riff at the beginning was due mainly clear, but bass notes got a bit lost and muddy when she started singing, and there was slight bias in the higher tones when playing the song at full volume. Was completely lacking in bass playing Iron Maiden’s “Run to the Hills” and the song came through tinny. For a 14-inch system, the UL80 speakers are above average, but the Toshiba Satellite M645 speakers are superior.

The UL80Jt-A1′s 1.2-GHz Intel Core processor i3 330UM a step up from the 1.3-GHz Intel Core 2 Duo SU7300 processor UL80Vt, who revealed himself in our test. The UL80Jt scored 4139 in PCMark Vantage, a 500-point drop over the UL80Vt, but about 300 points shy of the thin-and-light notebook and average about 1,300 points below ID49C08u Gateway and Toshiba Satellite M645, both of which 2.4 – GHz i5 540m Intel Core CPUs. Still, the notebook had no problem multitasking, and the windows open at once dived.

The UL80Jt-A1 has Optimus Nvidia’s technology, which automatically switches between integrated and discrete graphics depending on the task at hand. If high performance is required, kicks the discrete Nvidia 310M GPU with 1GB memory in. When it is not necessary, the discrete graphics card powers down and the integrated Intel graphics on HD to take to conserve battery life.

In 3DMark06, a benchmark that measures graphics performance, the 3268 scored UL80Jt-A1, which is 200 points lower than the UL80Vt, but about 900 points higher than the thin-and-light notebook average. However, the 14-inch Gateway ID49 (7230) and Toshiba M645 (6113) scored much higher, both Nvidia graphics GT330M (as Optimus technology).

While UL80Jt-A1 is worthy of gaming – the average of 135 frames per second in World of Warcraft at a resolution of 1024 x 768 – things to the max boost that percentage dropped to 35 fps. This is still playable, but the Gateway ID notched 49 fps, 55 fps and the M645 saw. The Samsung Q430-11, the same GPU as the UL80Jt, but lacks Optimus, turned in comparable scores on the UL80Jt-A1.

When playing Far Cry 2 at 1024 x 768-pixel resolution, 21 fps UL80Jt-A1 managed just below the category average. At its native resolution of 1366 x 768 and detail set at high, that number dropped to 14 fps, which is not playable, just above the category average 12 fps. Even if you need to save power and to use the integrated Intel graphics, you’ll hardly notice the difference in daily tasks. With integrated graphics, we were able to zoom in and scroll around Manhattan in Google Earth and 720p video playback without a hitch.

The UL80Jt-A1 is equipped with 64-bit version of Windows 7 Home Premium installed, and is loaded with CyberLink’s Power2Go and label printing for burning optical discs and label creation. In addition, the system has a host of ASUS features, including ASUS multiframe for managing multiple monitors, ASUS Data Security for encrypting files and folders, and ASUS SmartLogon face recognition. Perhaps the most interesting utility ASUS launch fancy, you replace the ASUS logo appears during startup with a custom picture and sound.

Conclusion

Of the many Optimus 14-inch notebooks we reviewed so far, the ASUS UL80Jt stands out as one of the best. For $ 900, you get an excellent condition for a system of this size without sacrificing too much performance. If you are looking for something with a bit more graphics muscle, the Gateway ID49C11u is the better option. But when the day mobility assets gaming prowess, the UL80Jt is the way to go.

Asustek Computer is still best known for its cheap netbooks, and the occasional high-end achieved, as the Republic of Gamers desktop replacements, but the company buses a fair number of middle-of-the-road systems. The Asus U41JF is a solidly built 14-inch notebook that will work fine for almost any regular task, yet it is no bargain at $ 850. Worse still, it is easily outclassed in the design department by the 13-inch cousin, the Asus U36JC, which costs about the same but is thinner, lighter and more attractive, and has similar discrete graphics and a better processor.

Neither model has new second generation of Intel’s Core i-series processors (previously codenamed Sandy Bridge), but for mainstream systems like this, that an upgrade can take a while to store hit shelves, especially given the recent challenges Intel with the new platform.

At prices approaching Apple’s MacBook (and topping 13-inch Toshiba R705), unless you stick to the idea of Nvidia’s GeForce 425 graphics system, there are better priced or better-looking laptops out there. That said, the U41JF really has a good battery life, and never really let us down, which may sound like faint praise, but praise nonetheless.

The biggest immediate problem we had with the Asus U41JF was the overall look. The brushed metal lid and palm rest are standard enough, and not offensive, but that’s coupled with a glossy black keyboard tray (matte black keyboard) and screen edge to extend to the four edges of the chassis. This gives the entire facility a gaudy two-tone look that we have previously criticized other systems. If you can not go monochrome, or at least keep the colors in the same family.

The body itself is square and boxy, but not too thick for a 14-inch system. We are not aesthetic elitists by any means, but with laptops especially is the same core set of components, the visual flair is often what sells one model over another.

The keyboard has the same flattened, widely spaced keys as most laptops today, which is a style we sometimes ask for island or Chiclet keys. The keys are a good size, with large left Shift and Enter keys, but the right shift key gets unjustly curtailed. We are not a fan of the extra row of buttons some laptop manufacturers are adding to the right, which usually Page Up, Page Down keys and other movements. They can throw you touch typing fairly easy, making it difficult to hit the Enter and Shift keys when you’re used to pointing to the right of the keyboard. Moreover, the keyboard bent under our fingers in the middle, while we type, who never gives a good long-term experience.

A generous touchpad is centered below the keyboard, but the basic sound multitouch gestures are hit or miss (but the same can be said of most Windows laptops now). A nice touch is that you can scroll vertically by either wiping with a finger along the right side of the touchpad or by using the Mac as a two-finger method. Below the touchpad, a rocker bar takes the place of the separate left and right mouse buttons. We strongly prefer separate buttons, but Asus seems married to the rocker bar concept in most of its products.

The 14.1-inch screen has a native resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels, which is typical for a midsize laptop. Off-axis viewing was good horizontally, but the image faded quickly when viewed from above or below. The built-in Altec Lansing speakers are decent for a laptop, and at least good enough for a personal video.

There is nothing remarkable, or missing from the collection of U41JF of ports and connections. But for almost $ 900, it is possible to extras such as a mobile broadband antenna or even a Blu-ray player if you shop around.

With a 2.53 GHz Intel Core processor i3, this is a good example of a mainstream laptop that is sufficient for everyday use, surfing the Web for Photoshop to play HD video online. While those i3 Core CPU is usually found in systems that cost a little less, in our benchmark testing U41JF matched well against the step-up systems with Intel Core processor i5. Our takeaway is that you should not reject this model, even if you had an i5 on your must-have list of laptop specs.

There are also some very positive results found in the Nvidia GeForce 425 GPU. It was reviewed by Nvidia’s Optimus switching system, which means that the discrete GPU shuts down and if necessary, and will not degrade your battery when you do not, for example, playing a video game. Sandy Bridge new Intel CPUs, with improved integrated graphics, mainstream graphics cards may be useless for many casual gamers, but these systems are still some ways off from widely available.

As an example, we walked Street Fighter IV in standard mode, which automatically turn on the Nvidia graphics. To the native resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels, the game ran at an excellent 68.4 frames per second. If we manually turned off the GPU, running instead on the integrated Intel HD graphics, the same test ran just 14.9fps.

Our video playback battery drain test, the Asus U41JF ran for an impressive 3 hours and 52 minutes. For a 14-inch laptop on the edge of the size we would consider including in the area on a regular basis, battery life may be less important than in a 12 – or 13-inch laptop, but we are happy to see this good result anyway. It scored 30 minutes better than the HP Envy 14 and about 30 minutes behind HP’s Pavilion DM4.

Asus does it better than the standard one year warranty laptop, offers us a guarantee of two years and one year Accidental Damage Protection. From other PC makers, they are often expensive extras. That said, Asus is not the easiest to use set of online support tools, and the overlapping sites can be confusing.

The Asus U52F-BBL9, a trim, lightweight laptop that offers a blend of performance and portability that are hard to beat. For users looking for a combination of productivity and portability, the Asus-U52F BBL9 offers processing and graphics power that can be used in the office and on the road.

Design

It’s hard to keep your hands off of the Asus-U52F BBL9. The all-plastic construction is made incredibly tangible with the use of rubber, soft-to-the-touch panels on the lid and palm rest. U52F combines the dark metallic gray with navy blue almost black, a surprisingly trendy combination that easily beats the looks of many business use of laptops.

The keyboard is chiclet-style, with a compact numeric keypad. Despite this, the numeric keypad never felt cramped or busy. It is big enough for number crunchers to use with comfort, but not moving the full-size keyboard too much for the traditional typists. The elevated wrist rest offers an ergonomically comfortable typing experience that will be appreciated by anyone who spends all day on the keyboard. The trackpad has a silky matte finish that slides right under the fingertips. The right and left buttons are combined in a bar, but it’s responsive enough that few users will wish for two different buttons.

Weighing 5.9 pounds, the U52F is much lighter than comparable 17-inch laptops, like the Dell Inspiron 17R (6.7 lbs), making it a laptop that you would like to tote to and from work or school. Because of its low profile makes it easy to catch, just 1.3 inches thick.

Features

Although BBL9-U52F Asus does offer a powerful mix of efficiency and convenience, it does not offer many extras. That is not to say that the U52F-BBL9 not a trick or two behind their hands. Besides the standard VGA output, headphone and microphone jacks, and RJ-45 LAN connection, you’ll find three USB ports and an HDMI output. A multi-format card reader you can use a variety of flash memory cards without any adapter. The integrated webcam is ideal for Skype and video chat, and 640GB hard drive provides enough storage for music, movies and games.

On the laptop you’ll find not one but two power buttons. It works the way you might be familiar with and mdashit powers of the unity and boots Windows. The other is a Quick Start button that powers the laptop open and ASUS Express Gate – an embedded Linux-based operating system that bypasses the lengthy Windows startup to access the web almost immediately. It has surfaced on a number of recent laptops and netbooks, and Asus has begun offering a range of machines.

Asus has also quietly put multitouch. While other laptops such as the HP Pavilion dv7-4083cl offering more gesture controls, the Asus-U52F BBL9 exercises a little restraint, limiting the user’s two fingers scrolling. Unlike the recent HP Pavilion – which all have complaints about the multitouch – this feature is perfectly executed. It reacts when you use it, not the problems with false positives, and it requires no further attention.

Performance

Compared to other recent notebooks in the $1000 range, the U52F-BBL9 appears to be fast, powerful system. The PCMark Vantage score of 5908 places it next to the HP Pavilion dv7-4083cl (5677) and Samsung R540-11 (6190) in terms of processing power. All three use Intel Core i5 processors with U52F-BBL9 using the M460, a small bump of the M450 used in the HP dv7-4083cl and Samsung R540-11. Our Photoshop CS5 test runs by several intense processing tasks that most systems slow as a snail. While high-end graphics-intensive systems easy jog through them, most midrange systems lurch and stumble, often earning periods longer than 6 minutes. The U52F-BBL9, on the other hand, scored a respectable time of 4:45. It did equally well in our video tests, filling out our video encoding test in 2 minutes 41 seconds compared to 3:26 scored by the Toshiba Satellite L675D-S7046.

The U52F-BBL9 also a good performer, earning scores in the 3DMark 2203 and 1982 at medium and high resolution tests, edges along the HP Pavilion DM4-1160us (2123 and 1809).

The end result of all this hardware is a system that performs very well when working with images and video. Amateur filmmakers feel that the video editing and encoding programs that normally overwhelm the processors in other mid-range laptops will run smoothly and efficiently on-U52F BBL9.

The 6-cell 63Wh battery is slim and light, but still supplies power for the better part of a day. 5 hours 52 minutes of battery, which offers BBL9-U52F is good. The 15.3-inch screen makes the device less than 17 inch versions, making it a relatively portable system.

Although not an ultra-light or low-voltage system, the Asus U52F-BBL9 offers a higher level of portability and performance than many of her colleagues in the $ 1000 price range. Those looking for some entertainment options to add to their work machine may instead opt for the HP Pavilion dv7-4083cl, but customers looking for a no-nonsense-U52F-BBL9 Asus laptop will find to be more than up to the task.

These days, business notebooks have a wide range of needs. Professionals require a machine that delivers computing, networking options, links galore, and hours of the battery. The Asus B43J-A1B fills most of these needs, but battery life is a major concern, then this notebook will disappoint.

Design

Although a large number of manufacturers, including Asus, have led to some fantastic business laptops on the market, such as the Dell Vostro 3300, most laptops like the Lenovo ThinkPad T410s tend to stick to the basics. The Asus B43J-A1B keep a conservative look, but puts a fashionable twist on the basic black black tie turns into something more.

The frame around the screen and the bottom of the chassis is matt plastic, but the lid and palm rest gets a stylish and protective aluminum case that resists scratches and will not attract fingerprints. The 14-inch widescreen display offers a resolution of 1366 x 768 resolution for 720p video viewing, and is finished with a 2-megapixel webcam, which has a built-in lens cap. It weighs a substantial 5.46 pounds.

The full-sized keyboard alerts the chiclet-style design that is so popular in consumer laptops, opt instead for a more traditional design. The keyboard is spill resistant, so you can have lunch at your desk now without the fear of a spilled drink, your computer at work to destroy. The touchpad is smooth and comfortable supports multi-touch, allowing two fingers to scroll and zoom your work machine.

Features

Connectivity is one of the most important aspects of a business laptop and the Asus B43J-A1B offers a variety of ports. There are three USB 2.0 ports (including a combined USB / eSATA port), optical drive, and connections for both phone and Ethernet. Connecting to an external monitor is also easier thanks to the VGA, HDMI and DisplayPort connectors. ATI Eyefinity also allows the connection of up to two additional monitors, so much more visual real estate.

Security options abound, such as B43J-A1b comes with several built layers of protection. A biometric fingerprint scanner makes-based security. A Smart Card reader makes use of security-card-based authentication of users. Intel vPro IT provides remote access and automatic blocking of lost or stolen laptops.

Our test unit was 4GB DDR3 memory. The 320 GB 7200 rpm hard drive will probably plenty of storage space on its own, but users will still want to use the USB / eSATA port to be taken when connecting an external hard drive. The A1B B43J-34 also has an ExpressCard expansion slot for greater flexibility. Docking station support allows a quick connection to peripherals, power and communications equipment, but requires the purchase of a separate docking station.

For quick access to the web, the Asus has the same B43J-A1B ExpressGate instant-on environment that is used in several other models from Asus this year as the Asus U52F. A special express gate button allows you to express gate of a powered-down state, skipping long Windows boot times for direct access to the web has to offer.

Performance

Although B43J-A1B features a 2.66 GHz Intel Core i5 560M processor, it is only 6,310 points scored in our PCMark Vantage benchmark, a score that left competitors in the same business area. Although the Asus B43J-A1B is still a competent machine that will handle the demands of professional computing performance is available for a comparable price. It laid the HandBrake video encoding test in 2 minutes 36 seconds and plowed through our Photoshop benchmark in 4:28. While those scores will not meet graphic designers and video editors, they are more than good enough for regular business professional.

The A1B-B43J performed better when tested in the graphics processing, earning scores as well or better than competing laptops. It scored a respectable 4797 on low settings, and 3,345 native resolution on our 3DMark06 test. The A1B-B43J success in the 3D test is partly due to its discrete ATI Mobility Radeon 5470 graphics chipset. The A1B-B43J our gaming tests completed with a reasonable but unplayable scores. Despite the i5 Core processor and discrete graphics, this laptop is simply not the chops for high-end gaming, but it was not intended.

The Asus A1B B43J-Stream comes with ATI, AMD automatic switching technology, the laptop between the ATI Mobility Radeon 5470 chipset change for 3D taxing tasks and Intel GMA HD (i5) integrated graphics for lower-end office tasks possible. In addition, Asus power management tool reduces energy consumption by automatically switching to Intel integrated graphics when drawing power from the battery.

While there is plenty to love about this laptop, it could not squeeze out enough 48Wh battery life to last through a cross-country flight or even lunch. On MobileMark 2007, the B43J-A1B lasted only 2 hours and 20 minutes. While battery life will not be a problem sitting stationaire at a desk, plugged into a socket or docking station, it means you definitely will not you using a cross country flight, and able to struggle through a working lunch.

B43J-A1B Asus offers a powerful set of features and hardware, but falls short in performance and battery life flat on. The result is a laptop that most will find it sufficient, but some will find frustrating. As long as you do not stray from the wall power for more than a few hours, the Asus B43J-A1B offers everything you need.

If I had a runner-up to retrieve the Dell XPS 1915 desktop replacement class notebook, the Asus N53JF-XE1 so be it. The broken our performance tests with components like an Intel Core i5 460M processor and Nvidia’s latest graphics chip, and crammed into popular features like a Blu-ray drive and a 1080p screen. Best of all, you can buy N53JF-XE1 for about $ 100 less than what you would pay for the Dell XPS 1915. This laptop is a shortcoming is battery life: it took only 3 hours.

Design

Asus has never been one to skimp on the design, which is why the N53JF-XE1 is covered with aluminum, such as the XPS 1915. The top is lightly brushed with a tone somewhere between bronze and silver gray. This material also has a slimming effect, as the N53JF-XE1 seems thinner than the plastic counterparts, the Samsung R580 and Dell Inspiron 17R.

Even so, it’s not the best desktop replacement to take on the road, though, as her 6.3 lbs frame is as heavy as the XPS 1915 (6.3 lbs). Desktop replacements, such as the Samsung R580 (5.4 lbs) and Acer Aspire TimelineX AS5820T-5951 (5.2 kg) are one pound lighter and better suited for traveling.

The 15-inch widescreen display is more reminiscent of the XPS 1915 than any other laptop in this group, because of the resolution, rather than its physical size. While 15-inch laptops such as Acer AS5820T and Samsung R580 settle for the standard 1,366 by 768 resolution, N53JF-XE1 goes to 1920 by 1080 (full 1080p). Even laptops with 17-inch widescreen displays, like the 17R (1,600 to 900) can not scale that high. Photos and high-definition videos, as you can imagine, looked absolutely gorgeous.

Asus kept the bar low with the user experience. The N53JF-XE1 avoided chiclet-style keyboard that any other Asus laptop seems to be these days, and instead went with a traditional. It is a great keyboard for all types of styles, and it even comes with an adjacent numeric keypad, but with half-size keys. It lacks a backlit keyboard, as on the Dell XPS 1915, which is useful for those working in low-lit areas. The mouse buttons are too busy for my taste and not as soft as the Dell XPS 1915.

Features

The feature set is more than any average user could ask for. Blu-ray drive that can also be found in the Samsung R580, and XPS-15 will keep you current with all the latest movies in HD. There are 4 USB ports, two of which house additional technology: The one in blue is USB 3.0, which allows content ten times faster than USB 2.0 with a compatible hard drives like the HP portable external hard drives (1 TB) . The second is an eSATA combo port, which is comparable to USB 3.0 that you can expand storage without compromising transfer speeds.

The N53JF-XE1 has an HDMI port, which is pretty essential in a laptop of this class. The Webcam is standard fare in comparison with the Skype-certified Webcam XPS 15, which also lets you shoot video in 720p high definition. Asus made speakers Bang & Olufsen ICEpower that spans the length of the keyboard and the sound they produce will only pass on an audiophile. However, JBL speakers XPS-15′s delivered better sound and more bass, thanks to the two speakers and a subwoofer.

Performance

The same houses N53JF-XE1 2.53 GHz Intel Core i5 460M CPU as the 17R Dell, and Dell XPS 1915, but it came out on top in Handbrake (2:37) and Cinebench R11.5 (2.43) benchmark tests that stress the processor. Factors affecting this exception can load the software (less third-party applications eat less resources) or the processor itself was tweaked to run at full speed at all times (usually at the expense of battery life). Adobe Photoshop CS5 (4:56) scripts memory-intensive test also performed at a high level, despite combining the same amount of memory (4GB DDR3).

If you’re a hardcore gamer, the GeForce 425 is part of the latest 400-series of Nvidia’s graphics chips that support DirectX 11. You’ll be able to determine the nature of the detail seen in games like Lost Planet 2 that you may have with past Nvidia mobile chips. It is a notch faster (faster fill rates and clock speed) than the GeForce graphics chip in the 420m 1915 XPS (Dell offers an option for the 425 too).

In its 3DMark06 score (8174 and 4322), the N53JF-XE1 is a better gaming machine than the Dell XPS 1915 (7404 and 4631). You get good game-play 3D-intensive tests such as Crysis (48.5 frames per second) and Lost Planet 2 (32.1 fps), both turned in the best scores in this group.

If the Nvidia chip is not in use, either by a game or video transcoding, the system will automatically revert to using the Intel integrated chipset technology that Nvidia called Optimus. This technology extends battery life, but that’s only half the battle, the laptop is still a big enough battery.

With the amount of power built in, even a switchable graphics technology could not help the 48Wh (6-cell) batteries. In our battery tests, the N53Jf-XE1 took a measly 3 hours and 15 minutes, that would not be as bad as Asus sold an extended battery option. By comparison, the XPS 1915 (3:48) combines a larger 6-cell battery (56 Wh) and offers a 9-cell option. Admittedly, the N53J-XE will probably remain a member of a wall most of the time.

If you are the Dell XPS 1915 Configuration I discussed with the Asus N53JF-XE1, the latter would emerge victorious forward in almost every performance-related task to compare. The N53JF-XE1 also offers top-of-the-line components, such as a Blu-ray drive and a resolution of 1080p, but it costs less than the Dell XPS 1915. For my money, the lack of an extended battery option and a number of high-end features (backlit keyboard and webcam 720p) are the better buy the XPS 1915, but the N53JF-XE1 is a great alternative.

Asus Eee PC has more varieties than we can count Netbook handy if you have lost track, you are not alone. Ion Nvidia graphics are great addition to the Asus Eee PC 1015PN-PU17, a $ 429 high-end configuration of the Eee PC 1015PEM and 1015PED. The 10.1-inch netbook, like the 1015PEM, also sports a new dual-core Atom N550 CPU.

We put in our review of the Asus Eee PC 1015PEM that the dual-core Atom slight performance improvements delivered without additional charge battery life or your wallet; offer dedicated Ion graphics an additional performance boost when it comes to video playback and even comes little gameplay, but at a higher cost in both instances. The 1015PN with Ion is more expensive than the $ 60 Dual Core Asus without.

Even with an over-$ 400 price, the Eee PC 1015PN begins to edge uncomfortably close to 11.6-inch sub-notebooks like the Dell M101z that offer better performance. And despite the premium price tag and features, the Eee PC 1015PN corners cuts to other Data: Windows 7, only 1 GB of RAM, and a lack of a HD screen feel like disconnects. This is the best of all three Eee PC 10-inch Netbooks we’ve looked in the 1015 line, but the cost can be a deterrent to some.

How many of the previous Eee PC from Asus Netbooks 1015PN has a sleek, teardrop-shaped side profile, wider at the back and tapers to a point at the nose. It is largely the same tapered/curved design we have on most Asus Eee PCs in the last year or so seen, and it is difficult to apply to get excited about another step-like structure. Smooth surface finish on the back cover and keyboard cover guard against fingerprints, but still show some ambient glow. The Eee PC line comes in red, blue, white and black, our black model had a flat surface, which showed a few spots fingerprint. The back cover is fairly thick, and the whole unit feels solid, even a little tight, but the compact form felt easy to stow. Having no protruding edges or batteries other than a slight bump on the rear underside is a plus.

The edge to edge raised Chiclet keyboard feels fresh and has no flex, but smaller than full-size keys after a while felt tight. In particular, small palm rest feel under too small for a simple tap round. A large multi-touch touchpad is of the same comfortable matte-smooth cover/palm rest material, and is defined by a thin strip of silver on the left and right, a slight change from previous Eee PC models.

Netbooks rarely surprised when it regards to connections and features, and the Asus Eee PC does not break form. It does, however, add HDMI, something was missing other Eee PC 1015 models. This allows the 1015PN on HD video output to a larger monitor or TV.

The speed of the Atom N550 CPU, contain very similar to its single-core brethren, so are most of the daily tasks exactly the same as they do on other netbook. Multitasking means improvements seen, although we ask how much we really do to multitask on a tiny 10-inch netbook with such limited screen space.

The most notable addition to this Eee PC is Ion Nvidia graphics. Although Nvidia Optimus automatically switching technology is not clear on this netbook is available with specific ion helps GPU with HD video playback and streaming. Full-screen Netflix looked very good; ABC Flash-based video player also saw great. Hulu in full screen mode was choppier than that, but still very watchable. If nothing else, this ion Eee PC turns into a video-enabled device – something that many are not really Atom netbooks.

Games can be played, within reason. Unreal Tournament III was 27.4fps in native 1024 x600 pixels, and we found other casual or older mainstream games very playable on the Eee PC 1015PN. The one big drawback, in addition to the small screen, comes from the increased fan-blown heat waves, which for this page Eee PC when using GPU-intensive tasks such as Flash 10.1 streaming video playback.

With so much heat dissipation would expect it, it would take a toll on battery life, yes it does.

The Asus Eee PC 1015PN six-cell battery lasted 4 hours and 26 minutes on our video playback battery drain test. This is more than an hour less than the otherwise identical ion-free Eee PC 1015PEM. More than 4 hours is still good enough for some, but the graphics power takes a toll on this laptop, how much juice you get. Play a lot of Flash-based videos or games, and you will for an outlet that much earlier position.

We have waited a long time for it. We first heard about the next generation of Nvidia Ion chip way back in the early months of 2010. You should contact Optimus graphics switching technology from Nvidia ship in April. Okay, June. July at the latest. It did not quite happen this started a few next-gen ion netbook earlier this year did so without Optimus. Finally but most of Asus’ next-gen ion netbook with Optimus and a dual-core Atom netbook hit-chip American coast, just one day of September.

The Asus Eee PC Seashell 1215N, is one of countless Eee PC from Asus Seashell netbooks, the first netbook we’ve seen Intel’s new mobile dual-core Atom chips-it is with the 1.8 GHz Atom D525, 2GB DDR3/800, and Most importantly, Nvidia’s next-generation graphics chipset and Optimus Ion technology, the ions can when needed and switches to UMA integrated graphics from Intel, if not ions is necessary.

If you have seen any Asus Netbook in recent years, the 1215N offers few surprises, most of them welcome. 11.6 cm diameter, 8 cm deep and 1.4 cm thick, weighing 3 pounds 4 ounces, it has the same height and depth as in previous ion netbooks, but it is thinner. As the last ion Eee PC 1201N, the 1215N uses a full-size keyboard Chiclet and a multi-touch trackpad, which sits flush with the palm rest and has a single (left and right-clickable) trackpad button. In contrast to the trackpad deferred 1201N but this year’s model swaps a glossy black fingerprint magnet palm rest for a little less bold display mat, and the grid-of-pit for a place by metal stakes. Unfortunately, the screen bezel and keyboard area (other than the key itself) will remain shiny and smudge-friendly.

The webcam has now “privacy cover” a moving for those paranoid about people hacking their cams to nude photos of them do not play candlelight procession, which is of little value, but to take damage.

Speaking of torchlight, the hit action-RPG from runes: the 1215N does. In the game, the Netbook-mode, 1366×768, we averaged 36fps, definitely playable, although the high frame rates can fall teenager for a few frames when there are many enemies on the screen.

It also plays Portal. And Starcraft 2 But not exactly graphically intensive, but still current modern Games. For the next generation of the Ion is not much faster than the first generation chip, it is no longer steals RAM from the rest of the machine that platform 512MB DDR3 graphics memory separate from the main memory. Optimus does a great job of switching, if needed for game play or video acceleration. Video acceleration, you say? Yep. The 1215N-screen is capable of 720p HD playback, and the machine itself can power an external monitor at 1920×1080 via HDMI. We were able to play 1080p flash videos from YouTube at 1920×1080, thanks to support Flash 10.1 ‘s hardware acceleration. Local 1080p video plays, depending on the coding of your players and codec support Blu-ray movies played flawlessly on the external monitor from an Asus USB 2.0 Blu-ray external drive, while 1080p QuickTime. Mov files had some stuttering but 720p Quicktime files played well.

Once you take impede all the things traditional netbooks a slow CPU, limited RAM, Intel graphics and add a 1366×768 screen, Windows 7 Home Premium and an HDMI connection, the end result is even a netbook? We say yes: The 1215N is smooth and does not feel cheap, but at $ 500, it is not the bank break, or just over 3 pounds, your back. We defy you get similar performance from a $ 500 ultra portable.

Not much has changed in netbooks since next-gen Atom N450 processor hit the scene changed at the beginning of 2010, which is why the emergence of dual-core Atom netbooks merits some interest. Single-core netbooks have always lacked the oomph to attack tasks as a full-size laptop can, especially when it comes to multitasking. The dual-core Atom N550 CPU in the Asus Eee PC 1015PEM-PU17 offers light performance improvements without the additional burden battery life or your wallet, this configuration will cost about $ 40 more than an otherwise similar single-core Asus Eee PC 1015PED with Atom N455 CPU.

The 11.6-inch netbook with AMD Athlon dual-core neo-faster CPUs, but this affordable CPU configuration is the more expensive dual-core 12-inch Asus Eee PC with its nuclear 1215N D525, a run for their money. However, you get what you pay for: this netbook lack of high-end features – HD screen, HD Broadcom accelerator, ion, or Nvidia graphics – put them in a non-premium category.

How many of the previous Eee PC from Asus Netbooks 1015PEM has a sleek, teardrop-shaped side profile, wider at the back and tapers to a point at the nose. It is largely the same tapered/curved design we have on most Asus Eee PCs in the last year or so, have seen especially the 1005PEB, and it is difficult to apply to get excited about another step-like structure. Smooth surface finish on the back cover and keyboard cover guard against fingerprints, but still show some ambient glow. The Eee PC line in red, blue, white and black is, our model had an attractive red copper-colored light brown. The back cover is rather thick and entire unit feels solid, even a little tight, but the compact form felt easy to stow. Having no protruding edges or batteries other than a slight bump on the rear underside is a plus.

The raised edge to edge Chiclet keyboard has responded well to flex and no keys, but smaller than full-size keyboard felt tight after a while. In particular, feeling the tiny wrist from too small for a simple tap round.

The real question here is “how to run the dual core atom compared with a normal, old single-core?” The speed of the Atom N550 CPU, contain very similar to its single-core brethren, there is no significant dent in each individual tasks such as streaming video or converting MP3s. This is not a panacea for silky-smooth video on a netbook. Hulu and Netflix viewed full screen had the same choppy-yet-slightly-watchable video that we experienced on the 1015P. Most daily tasks are exactly the same as they do on other netbook. The difference is in multitasking: If you like to download and web surfing and streaming audio and other things to do all at once, the 1015PEM feel less Chuggy.

We have to make improvements in our multitasking benchmark test, but the results are still far from what can quickly make laptops. Dual-core CPUs, as the more expensive 11.6-inch AMD Athlon Neo-systems are produced faster overall results, but the N550 held with the dual-core Atom CPU to the more expensive D525 Asus 1215N. The N550 is an incremental update to an incremental update of the cost. Is it worth it? We would say yes, as long as you keep your expectations in check.

The Asus Eee PC 1015PEM six-cell battery lasted 5 hours and 33 minutes on our video playback battery drain test, production, excellent results for a dual-core CPU machine. It is reassuring to know that the dual-core capabilities are not significantly drain battery life unless serious multitasking operating.

Asus Eee PC netbooks have become a deafening sometimes diversified range of options, but if they are cooked, most of them almost the same components. Case in point: the Asus Eee PC 1015PED-MU17. For $ 330, this 10.1-inch Netbook a single-core Atom N455 CPU, 1GB of RAM, a 250GB hard drive, and the same long battery life we have come to expect.

However, it lacks the bells and whistles we show in premium netbook, including higher resolution, HDMI output have seen, and HD-accelerated graphics over Nvidia or Broadcom ion solutions. Plus, for only $ 40 more, there is a dual-core atom configuration, the Asus Eee PC 1015PEM, the faster multitasking without effective losses in the battery life offers.

The bottom line is clear: this netbook does not offer anything special, but it does the job. However, you may want to upgrade to the Dual-Core 1015PEM place, unless you prefer to save $ 40.

Our review model technically an Asus Eee PC 1015P was a very similar Atom N450 CPU.

Although the N455 CPU, should gradually offer better results, perform single-core Atom netbooks in a narrow window with really only minor variations between models.

Design

The cover is made of a brown plastic surface that can be easily smudged and marked made up. Further into the palm rest has structured a copper-tone color and is rough, almost with a metallic feel. The design is not as striking as other laptops in its class: The Dell Inspiron 17R-2248MRB, the plastic is designed to look like brushed aluminum. The Samsung R540-11 gets the most points of style, similar to plastics, wood made. The Asus K52F-A1 weighs 5.8 pounds, a bit on the heavier side for a 15-inch laptop, but nothing unmanageable. The HP Pavilion 3123cl-dv6, in comparison, is a full half a pound lighter at 5.3 pounds.
