Video review of the Asus UL30A. It’s PCMags Editor’s Choice in the CULV category
Video Rating: 4 / 5
How much does it cost??
looks way better than the acer
Great review but basically what I want is a laptop that is ASUS but looks like alienware … Ugh please have customizable bodies and LEDs’
Thank you very much for this review which I found most useful.
I use you tube a lot but did not think of looking here for reviews. I found this more helpful than anything I have read.
My requirements are at least 4GB RAM, long battery life as I travel a great deal + I would like something which is ‘tough’.
Other than the Asus are there any other suggestions?
its funny he doesnt say anything about hardware which is the most important feature in a laptop he doesnt show the actual capacity of the battery c,mon
do you know what the gateway one that you mention in the start is called
what’s ASUS’s best 15-16 inch laptop?
thanks
@r31ncarnat3d true dat
Finally, yes most PC laptops come with crapware, but it takes a few minutes to remove. If it really does take you “hours”, you’re either running W7 on a Pentium II or you really are computer illiterate.
@cfm247
1. I was speaking in my experience as a college student. Go to any university, and Macs usually are the majority, the most popular “want”, or both. Similarly, while OS X only commands a small market share, its sales have been rising.
2. Wrong, OS X gives Apple a monopoly. I used a Mac for three years and absolutely hate the GUI. It’s too dumbed down, and likes to freeze up on me while using CS4. It was def better than Vista, but I switched to W7 when it came out.
@r31ncarnat3d Uhm, your comment is “wrong”. Mac OS X is NOT popular, compared to Windows.In fact, it has many times lower percent marketshare than Windows… That said, you shouldnt comment if you don’t know what you’re talking about.OS X is only on Macs produced by Apple for a reason:to give the very best user experience, and a high quality computer/software package no one else can deliver.As with this Asus: beautiful quality HW, but comes OVERLOADED with crap you have to spend hours removing.
asus’ screen is the worst
@willsk2 consumer ultra low voltage
what is culv??
@r31ncarnat3d asus is a great laptop i have it runs super fast
do u guys know that ASUS used to make MAC’S
@Tommydudez Yes i3 is newer/better than core 2 duo.
Who needs usb anyway? This laptop would be great for use in University.
2 usbs enough, but i think this has 3.
Why nowadays the latest laptops have only 2 ports of USB when the the old days had the standard 3? isnt it I3 better than core 2?
One question is whether the laptop good for games???
lol my old hp was shit. dv3 model.. the palm rest always gets fucking hot.. and the battery life was shit..
asus makes good lappys i like this lappy but more so the ul30vt model with switchable graphics.. was initially set on getting the m11x from alienware but decided to go with the 30vt. and i’m really happy with it been using it for 2 months now
Lenovo has that crappy old style keyboard*
Yeah, Lenovo uses has crappy rugged keyboard
@iStevenT Definitely. It’s a bit unfortunate that Lenovo won’t update their looks. They’re solid machines, but definitely have too much of a bland look. If they refreshed their aesthetics, they could definitely do well in the general consumer market.
Hp’s do suck, Mac’s are overpriced. The good brands are Sony, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo.
not bad now
my new pc can do 48 gb of ram muhahahahaha lolz
@r31ncarnat3d HAHAHHAHAA! XD
