Review Asus A52JU Notebook

 

Shiny Starter. An Asus entry-level model with an Intel Pentium pr

Price; Speaker Volume; Case Temperature; Number Pad; Good Sound System for this Price Range; Office Performance

Keyboard makes Loud Crinkly Noise; Few Ports; Display Not Very Bright

Lenovo's B560 fits within the same price range and offers similar features. The B560, however, has a new Nvidia graphics card and Nvidia Optimus. Another starter notebook would be the Toshiba C660: also with Intel Pentium P6100 but having an Intel HD...

Nighmare

 

While this may look like a good deal it's not worth it. ASUS customer service is a nightmare and so is there repair team. They will drive you insane before they send you a new laptop and it will involve you having to get nasty for them to take you...

The specs look good on paper

The specs look fast on paper but in reality the laptop doesn't perform up to the hardware. Also, very unreliable. Screen is very bad, the ppi is just bad on the lcd they used and obviously a cut corner to drive costs down, makes using laptop for long...

Good Bargin

 

Got this to replace my 2009 MBP. I'm glad I did. Tried getting ASUS to send me 32bit version of W7 but they said they couldn't. Multitouch works well.

Fast. Pretty. Accidental Damage Coverage

6-Cell Battery doesn't offer much longevity. It's Hot. I can't have relations with it. Said I look fat in this dress

Awesome Laptop!

 

This is a very fast laptop. I did buy disk partitioning software and enlarged the "applications" C:\ partition of the drive. Because by default everything wants to install to C: and made the D:\ "data" partition much smaller since data takes up so...

Almost everything. This laptop is fast. The core i5 processor is perfect for almost every application. I could get almost every 32bit application to run on it except for 3 games. The fan is silent and the keys have the "right" give to them for writing...

Only 3 USB 2.0 ports. Only a 5,400 RPM hard drive. where the K52Jr (same specs) sold elsewhere has a 7,200 RPM hard drive. Asus' technical support. The applications partition "C:\" is only partitioned at 120Gb on a 500Gb hard drive

Don't buy

 

works good and is fast.

I have been using asus motherboards in my systems for years with great satisfaction. I got this laptop because of the brand but now I'm seriously thinking of throwing it away because their customer service does not exist. I mailed off the card twice...

Great Laptop!

 

The cons I listed are small and wont take eggs off of this product. It is a super sexy laptop and has others drooling over it. My version is the brown one and I love how it blends in with the black. I'm sure the all black version here looks just as...

To start off with this thing is beautiful. I own the brown version newegg used to have of this and I'm loving it. This being my first laptop I was a little scared if I purchased the wrong one for what I wanted to do with it. I was wrong to be scared....

Fingers prints! The case shows them off pretty well. Keyboard: I'm not sure if I'm just not used to laptop keyboards or what but it feels very springy. It is somewhat loud as well. At first i was concerned but it seems to be something I just have to...
