- Pros: It is pretty powerful for a 14.1 inch screen for the price.
Looks stylish with its paintwork and beveled edge design.
8700 2.53 processor with 4 gig of memory should be able to handle any of the games I play currently. (AA2 & AA3, Battlefield series)
Has a solid feel with no creeks.
Runs cool, much cooler than my brothers Toshiba and my sisters HP laptops.
Bluetooth and Blu-ray is a big bonus that is included.
The express gate feature is pretty cool and may come in handy for quick access to the internet, chat, etc.
Speaker sound pretty good. - Cons: The touch pad buttons are a little loud but nothing that will bother surrounding people or me.
Does not come with Vista 64 bit to use all 4 gig of memory, but that is no biggie since I will upgrade to Windows 7 when it is shipped to me. - Other Thoughts: Overall it feels like a solid notebook. It is powerful, stylish, and sturdy. Smaller size is great for carrying to class or just around. The battery life is decent at about 4 hours on general type use. The keys feel nice and press in smoothly. The screen is very bright and clear. I actually turned the brightness down some and i may need to go down more.

Can you please confirm that this laptop DOES have a Blu-Ray drive, built-in and standard to the laptop? I can't find anyone else who acknowledges it, nor any specs sites that list it.
ReplyDeleteI would appreciate it if you let me know for certain as soon as possible. :) I'm not certain that this blog will alert me to replies, so please e-mail me directly at digitalpioneer at gmail. Thanks.
I, too, would like to know if there is blu-ray in the notebook. You are the only one who I have seen say included it.
ReplyDeletePretty sure you are mistaken since even the ASUS website does not include it and that would be a pretty big selling point.
Thanks for the review, though!
