ASUS X501A TH31 Review
Inspiring New Additions:
Asus X501A TH31 is a slim notebook offering a commendable performance. The compact machine provides an amazingly large 15.6 inches display screen for a great viewing experience. Intel’s second generation core processor ensures a fast and reliable performance. At the same time, the notebook comes with the most advanced version of Microsoft’s operating system, Windows 8.
Large HD Display:
When you open that lid, you are welcomed by a High Definition display screen of whooping 15.6 inches with the resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels. Although the world has seen much better, X501A TH31 also offers satisfying vividness and clarity. The viewing angles are limited, but looking at the screen straight in front of you will give you sufficient sharpness and brightness.
Core i3 with Good Bargain:
The gadget’s price is a good bargain for the fast speed it brings you. Most other 15 inches notebooks with the same speed cost much higher. In the case of Asus X501A TH31, you get 2.2 GHz of optimum speed with Intel’s commendable Core i3 2350M processor.
Storage and Flexibility:
Your data storage depends on the notebook’s 4 GB internal memory along with 320GB of Hard Drive which is sufficient for all your photos, music, videos, documents and software applications. Unlike the chromebooks, you can install and download any software on this Windows platform. Moreover, the 1333 MHz DDR3 memory ensures that your gadget has a great efficiency.
Cool and Noise-free:
X501A TH31 does not heat up as much as other notebooks and laptops do. The cooling design implemented by Asus manufacturers is clearly excellent. Plus, the fans do their job quietly without disturbing users with the annoying noise that many of the other CPUs produce. Speaking of quietness, the 320 GB hard drive of the notebook also works noiselessly.
Unique Touchpad & Keyboard Features:
After creating a relatively cool and quiet environment, this wonderful notebook by Asus lets you work efficiently with its delightful touchpad and soft keyboard. Although the touchpad is just above average, the best thing is that it does not interfere with your typing. In case your palm touches it accidently while your fingers are busy on the keyboard, there wouldn’t be any problems with the typing. So, Asus has solved the problem which most big guns like Samsung and Dell still have regarding their touchpad and keyboard interaction.
However, the keyboard has a little cramped layout. It keeps most users from typing fast. Moreover, it is also noisy to work with, each button producing a comparatively loud tapping noise when the keys are pressed.
Battery Life:
The most top-notch portable computers today, such as Dell’s XPS 13 Ultrabook, offer more than eight hours of battery life. X501A TH31 of Asus cannot compete with such an appreciable battery life, but it still manages to give users around five straight hours. This is another great feature considering the price. Most laptops with the same range of cost only offer around 2.5 to 3.5 hours of battery life.
Design and Weight:
The design of this affordable notebook cannot be compared to the premium and heavily priced Lenovo Thinkpad, MacBook Pro and HP Envy. However, it is still pretty decent and durable with 4.6 pounds of weight making the machine quite light.
Connection Choices:
There are two USB ports, including USB port 3, and an HDMI connection for hooking up the gadget to an HD TV, projector or a larger HD monitor.
Bottom Line:
Therefore, buyers who pick Asus X501A TH31 will be able to enjoy a good deal at an affordable cost. It might not be the best notebook, but still offers you plenty of perks along with a pretty satisfying performance.
