Abstract: If you're willing to lug an additional pound or three, you can get a much more capable machine that's also easier on your eyes and hands, if not always your pocketbook. Ranging from less than $1,000 to a no-compromises $3,000, these midsize sedans ge...
After all the dust is settled the ASUS N53SV makes for a very well rounded notebook with one glaring issue for me - the sound system. This is nothing you can't fix with a pair of external speakers or headphones though, so the poor sound quality isn’t a...
Lightning fast quad-core Core i7 processor. Nvidia GeForce 540M chip makes it a viable gaming laptop. USB 3.0. Appealing design. Cavernous, fast spinning hard drive.

Interfaces all in the front area, Spongy keys, Average display with reflective surface, Moderate battery life
Even if the largest part of the positive overall impression is due to Intel's new Huron River platform, Asus has succeeded in setting up a strong multimedia notebook. The case's qualities, as well as the restrictions caused by the interface distribution...
Sound quality better than the usual fare. Quite a lot of power for the price. Two-year warranty
Keyboard flexes a bit while typing
