Asus K53E-RBR4

 

The Asus K53E-RBR4 is a good-looking laptop that's acceptably fast, but other systems that cost the same offer more.

Attractive design. Decent productivity performance.

No USB 3.0 ports. Other laptops offer better features for similar price.

Asus DH52 review: Asus DH52

 

The Asus Zenbook UX31E boasts sleek, pristine design, excellent-sounding speakers, a higher-resolution screen than the MacBook Air, and a better price for nearly identical specs.

The keyboard and touch pad are weak points; there are equally thin laptops out there with better battery life.

The Asus Zenbook UX31E is an excellent-looking Windows Ultrabook laptop that matches the MacBook Air step for step with an even better price. Fans of great audio, high-resolution screens and lots of ports will be happy; keyboard/touch pad aficionados...

Asus K53E-B1

 

With its 15.6-inch display, dual-core Intel processor, and integrated graphics, the Asus K53E falls shy of our power and size criteria for inclusion in the desktop replacement category. But as all-purpose notebooks go, it's definitely on the beefy...

Good battery life, superior audio ; Handsome, full-featured, reasonably priced

No 5GHz Wi-Fi, some ergonomic keyboard issues ; Mediocre performance; heavy for its screen size

Good looks, superior audio,excellent battery life, and a modest price make the K53E-B1 a good deal for everyday tasks if portability and speed aren't prime concerns.

Asus K53E-B1 review: Asus K53E-B1

 

Asus K53E-B1

Sharp design and excellent battery life, plus a surprisingly affordable price, make the 15-inch ; a smart alternative to more-expensive midsize laptops.

There are no configuration options, so you're stuck with integrated graphics, and there are no high-speed ports, such as USB 3.0 or eSATA.

For Intel's next-gen CPUs in an attractive, affordable, midsize package, the Asus K53E is easier on the wallet than systems from Dell or Apple.

Asus K53E-B1

 

If you're a fan of new technology, the Asus K53E-B1 laptop is loaded with new Intel components and priced to move.

Dual-core Sandy Bridge processor is fast. 6GB of memory included. Beautifully designed. Over 6 hours of battery life. Good typing experience. 640GB hard drive.

Annoyingly loud mouse buttons. A USB 3.0 port would've been nice.

Asus' K53E dual-core Sandy Bridge notebook

 

Our first brush with Sandy Bridge in its mobile incarnation—or rather, the first vessel for it that entered our labs—was a 17" Compal review platform, a great big hunk of a laptop fast enough to put most folks' desktop PCs to shame. At its heart lay...

First, let's talk about the Asus K53E for a minute, since it's the real star of this review. This Asus machine might not be the slimmest, lightest, or most compact laptop around, but it's put together quite well, and it sure packs a punch. More...
