ASUS UL50Vt-A1 Thin and Light 15.6-Inch Black Laptop - 11.5 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Home Premium)

#1: ASUS UL50Vt-A1 Thin and Light 15.6-Inch Black Laptop - 11.5 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Home Premium) Reviews!

This is my first laptop PC after using desktops for the last 11 years. All I can say is that I do not suffer from buyers remorse on this item. The touch pad is responsive. The laptop is very slim and portable. My only complaint is the screen is not a matte finish like the desktop monitors. (get alot of glare from light). I bought this as mainly a device to watch streaming movies and as a portable DVD player. I had it 15 days now so there is no way I can return it....its here to stay. Runs very quiet and the speakers are OK for a laptop. Does not get hot as the processor is a 1.3 GHZ duo core. Some of the plusses I like on this unit:
Runs Windows 7
Has a 9 hour battery life
Slim
Quiet
15.6 inch monitor

And as I stated, the only con is the screen is not a matte finish (gets glare from light)

Asus is the new kid on the block and they are coming up with some awesome technology. (They are also getting involved with electronic e-readers). I would say get this particular model as you get a nice 15.6 inch screen with a 9 hour battery life.

Customer Reviews

Clunky experience, feels cheap, bad support - slp - Seattle, WA United States
Try one of these in person before buying! The keyboard and track pad are offset to the left to make room for the numberpad, making it awkward to use. The keys also have a cheap feel to them, which is kind of a distraction when trying to work. The result is that I avoid using this computer unless it's the only one available. Battery life is good, but it's too heavy to take everywhere, so it mostly stays plugged in anyway. Device driver support for linux is weak at best.

I had trouble making the recovery media, and when I called tech support they were very unhelpful and wanted to charge me for the discs I was missing.
