Information for you

Accomplishments: One of the few whose size monitor closer to the limits of cover. Well, since no beech no Beck at an inflated price.

Limitations: YUzayu less than a month and the Winchester company WD started razdrajayuschi poschelkivat given that the firm is not so hot, I worried for him.
Vaunted technology "Optimus" is not working properly. Have to switch it manually for system soberly not assess the situation, and GPU gt218(in my opinion he is a little better than the intel 3150 that takes care of the "routine" tasks, so it's more of a PR move than to the need for a netbook) is not designed for games, for example World Of Tanks the game is far not expensive at the minimum setting of the game and most productive settings IONa decently brakes indicator FPS(refresh rate) does not exceed 15-16 then there is a picture decently delayed.

Comment: Itself is good if it carry the Institute for instance. Well, as a home PC should not be considered, if someone considers. Price is expensive, frankly its value does not exceed 17K.
Windows incidentally not Starter and Home Premium
In the role of WI-FI acts Broadcom 802.11a/b/g/n, in the role of a wired Atheros AR 8152, memory and truth DDR3 1333 but the USB there 2.0 port and 2-port 1.1!!!(marked in black)(I was shocked) USB 3.0 is not on all models but if you have it you must be BLUE. So that's the good humor.)) And the absence of the latter greatly disappointed.

Accomplishments: - Boot OS: cold boot OS occurs 20 seconds. Desktop PC with a much more powerful iron and SSD drive is loaded longer in a netbook is skipped POST check at a stage of the BIOS, and in the desktop machine diagnosis of iron happens to complete the program, hence the result).
- Good 3D performance for CERTAIN toys. Unfortunately, such a little toys, see "Disadvantages"

Limitations: - The main disadvantage is buggy nVidia ION 2. It is not always clear what kind of adapter is running, do not always ION 2 works as you expect. A vivid example - old toy WarCraft III. If run under ION the fps will be significantly lower than under the Intel GMA should be, but the opposite. And so is every other toy. Very unstable work, aware of the same manufacturer, but even a year ago, nVidia put on this confirmation can be found in numerous branches of the official forum nvidii.
- Very tight touchpad keys. Use unpleasant.
- Autonomy. I don't know how they did it, but the device works not more than 4 hours in quite a sparing mode. If you run a 720p movie with the acceleration of the ION, the duration of operation is about 2 hours. It is a little.
- Very easily soiled hands to tear the one who thought of to make the substrate Clara glossy. Dirty immediately clean it.
- The Klava significantly sags in the middle part. When I bought the thought of marriage. tried to pass under warranty, but they refused and said it must be so.
- Immediately after the purchase were prefixed asusovskie pribludyi, and various services. Because some of them hard disks constantly goes into power saving mode: this entailed constant clicks and a General slowdown of work. Was solved by reinstalling Windows.

Comment: Not a netbook, but it's just one big compromise. Disappointed.

Accomplishments: The low price.

Limitations: Low reliability.
Rattles the keyboard.
after a month of purchase touchpad stopped working.
after a year of battery died. Without any prerequisites.
In warranty repairs touch pad refused, as applied at the expiration of one year warranty, which is so little for such malonadejnogo device.
Package, which comes bundled generally already furious their useless beauty and navorochennostyu.

Comment: It was better to add and buy a laptop from another manufacturer.

Accomplishments: About the advantages of written everywhere correctly. Accurate and very outwardly attractive netbook (especially metallic color)with a comfortable diagonal, normal screen resolution. Fast. Kdealnyie color klavyi.Vindu did not demolish. Compact. Included was the case. The sound is loud.

Limitations: I write in order manifestations
1. glare screen - PCP. The previous was a matte. Here I see myself in any light, especially if the screen saver is dark. On the street likely maximum brightness will not save
2. really noisy Klava printing - and want to open the case and jevachku enclose )) It's just visually unpleasant especially if you look sometimes at claves when printing.
3. touchpad keys tight. really hard (!) you must press, not just the click.
4. glossy black plastic in very easily soiled. (external metallic - OK)
With the move, nothing more is revealed.

Comment: The parameters - the best ratio of price-quality. Filling excellent. Took for business usage, and he looks this good. The battery is not yet fully understood, it seems to 6 hours swings. Before this was a 10-inch ASUS the same series - the same as quickly caught on and these shortcomings in it (though tupil strongly and the screen was small)
In General, satisfied with the device, but a small osadochek available. Other models of netbooks had more Kosyakov, so there I would prefer this. Probably on a course to get hooked.

Accomplishments: First of all, I want to note that ASUS 1215n was the first model among netbooks with a dual-core Atom D525 on the Russian market. Plus two videkartyi, one from Nvidia. Ergonomic design, a good screen, Win7 on Board, and it is claimed to work without pozdaryadki 7 hours. What more could you ask for? A definite advantage of this notebook should be a dual-core atom and a discrete video on Board.

Limitations: However dignity turned out to be very elusive. The dual-core atom enabled HyberTreathing returned to us after a year, from the Pentium 4. Calculated it was probably the fact that most of startup applications must support multiple cores, but this is actually not true! This is a netbook! I soon faced with this problem, that non-optimized applications, which the majority can download the processor is not more than 25%, and it is very sad. The more that the Atom itself is not the fastest processor in the world. You may encounter for example with small hangs sound.
And discrete video was not discrete... Ion 2 is not an independent graphics card, the image still jammed through integrated video, and because of this performance falls terribly! Needless to say, that video score in Win7 is just 3.7.
With the latest drivers, Chrome 11.0 and Adobe Flash 10.2 with hardware video acceleration, videos on Youtube already in 720p shamelessly brake.
Update driver from Nvidia is impossible, and we need only wait for the update from Asus that go well if once in a half year.
Advantage of discrete video turns out to be very elusive, especially for the money. I bought in the beginning of September for 21000 rubles.
as far as battery life - with all the tricks, more than 6 hours. Usually not more than 4 - and for a netbook is quite a bit.

Comment: This netbook is already at the moment of his release was sort of a "crutch".
I'm Sorry for sharpness in expressions, but I kinda tehnogik, and bought it for the sake of power and mobility. None of this I got in sravenii with existing models.
Experience in the use every day for 6 months.
For the same money (about 17 thousand roubles) you still can now buy ASUS UL20FT, many characteristics surpassing this netbook 1.5 times (CPU and video).

Accomplishments: excellent mafyinka

Limitations: model with red matte surface...when choosing between it and the black, the seller said that this (red) is not visible will fingers...yeah!how is!koroch,if need beauty of the top cover,it is not an option...I personally don't give a crap...

Comment: Compared with noutom 14 inches (I had a), this modelka definitely wins. Light, portable...I Especially liked the keyboard is very comfortable and harmonious...

Accomplishments: 1. power (for a netbook)
2. keyboard (handy!)
3. Windows 7 Home Premium (not stump Starter)
4. 320 GB screw (designated't be too much :)
5. compactness, mobility, battery operation time (more than 5 hours brojdeniya on the Internet without problems, without any saving)

Limitations: 1. little maximum opening angle of the screen (on the eye Hz to 120 degrees)
2. low volume of the speakers (even at full volume kinoshki can only watch in silence)
3. glossy screen (glare)
4. blind to the webcam does not fixed in any position, just hanging here and there

Comment: The machine is great, but the price/functionality ratio still leaves much to be desired. Most disconcerting small opening angle of the screen and low maximum volume of the speakers. In the rest of the beech everyone likes. Coupled with mobility and a great time battery life is a wonderful working machine.

Accomplishments: A good time work.
Integrated and discrete graphics.
a Good processor.
Nice design.
Fairly large display (for a netbook).

Limitations: Disgusting viewing angles of the display.
Not a very high-quality Assembly (building doors creak and pressed).
still high price.
a Very common marriage touchpad(often buggy, works as he pleases).
powerful speakers.

Comment: In General, I am satisfied. This is my first netbook, so that the experience I have with them is not a lot, but if to compare with the old eee pc my friends, this is quite another level of performance.
Paid 15K in due time, without Windows on a Board. Put MSDNAA'posted to FidoNet newsgroup license win7 prof, everything works fine. If you need a mobile office (ekseli\vordyi\1syi) + entertainment. For progerov also be rules (although linuhom problems with sound and firewood for ION), for designers - matrix figovaya and somehow photoshop badly drawn (maybe I'm stupid).
I took it to work in photoshop, but it turned out that it is practically impossible, tried several times, felt some pervert. The screen is great, the performance is not enough, large files (<20MB) panels. But in some situations for work he helped me and I think this is already something. Netbook works for me in General on purpose - as a multimedia container\web browser. I have a variety of old and not very games, movies and all sorts of music. Nevertheless 320GB hard still half empty. Take it with you, just in case, the benefit weighs less 1.5kg. Rarely when I have it without the case is, almost every day fully razryajayu battery (holds about 4 hours in active mode (wi-fi, youtube etc)).
In General, think for yourself, and decide for yourself, at the time when I bought (half a year ago) - had no competitors. Now I don't know.

Accomplishments: Small, lightweight, convenient,fast (very fast for a netbook)

Limitations: Some eternal power problems. In two years of use 4 times took it in for repair. The charger there were problems, then with the socket, the battery. I can certainly not lucky there was a defect, but honestly no I'm alone with this model worry with power.

Comment: In principle, I do not regret choosing him in his time. However, another repair total value exceeds the cost of the computer.

Accomplishments: Easy, beautiful, quite a productive -- a good workhorse, if not for one sooooo important for me "but"

Limitations: Buggy touchpad. Read our and foreign link brokers forums, problems with the touchpad arise from very many owners of this model. I put into service center, but even a complete replacement of the touchpad problem not solved. Bought the same mother -- history repeated itself. In short, if the touchpad is you need to look in another direction.

Accomplishments: The merits of him for a netbook even too much,first of all pleased:
-Performance(launched Morrowind on normal settings-comes with no problems,4 GB RAM DDR 3 and ION 2 all the same)
-build Quality(asus still)
I Took Home premium so any claims to the system no
-Quite tolerable battery
Convenient keyboard
and of course sheath on the point included

Limitations: -First of all brands,fingers...Yes,just fingers will become your main worry,when you look at the cover buka.Otpechatki really remain and erased pretty hard.
-Glossy screen,well about him so much bad to say,isn't going to raspinatsya.
-Price(20000 for a netbook,for many it is a bit much)

Comment: Until when using no problem,all dovolen.Edinstvennoe that want to comment on what is promised USB 3.0 before we got inside,can be ordered only in America...Well this is not news,in Russia forever as a wry all imported

Accomplishments: The bright screen (Brighter than 1201N), powerful video card (Star Craft 2 is on average), big screw, almost cool, great and very pleasant touchpad. Windows 7 Home Premium, just goes to all sellers are not aware that Office 2010 Starter (word, excel, full, without trial, only a small advertisement in the corner)

Limitations: Keyboard significantly proginaetsya center, matte cover and area of the touchpad quickly was covered in greasy stains from fingers, which is not so easy to scrub (gloss vyitiralsya much better), and keys are placed on a plate of soft plastic, which scratched when it "pomazkom" dust schischaesh, very noisy Winchester - a very loud noise and disgusting and periodically shuts down (I Immediately wanted SSD). The cover is hinged somewhere 130 degrees, but clearly less than the 1201N. RAM is divided into two slats 1Gb, which makes its replacement with a distant prospect. Despite appeared nvidia optimus life time of the battery, not much has changed, 4.5-5 hours still remains to be the maximum lath, due to two graphics cards to problems with playback of Full HD video (1201N it easier).

Comment: In General, this netbook is closer to what would solve all the needs of a normal user, than 1201N, but still far from perfect. Almost all my rant of a cosmetic nature and the functionality are not as filling it completely justifies itself and shows well.

Accomplishments: Compact - drag with myself and not to notice the weight and size after the laptop 15" (intermeddle in the glove compartment tiidyi), display 12" optimal, long battery life, the speed for netbooks super, HDMI - to-use video player on HD TV (pulls movies up to 10GB - more retarding).

Limitations: the touchpad is frequently not adequately behaves. Downloaded the new driver is the problem became less apparent.

Comment: The optimal choice of netbooks - a workhorse! If not mess with touchpad would be*****!
