Advantages: Cheap,good build quality, doesnt get hot Disadvantages: No bluetooth, chassis gets dirty,stickers come of really quickly
To begin with I would like to say that I own this ASUS for about half a year now and had absolutely no problems with it. Computer works great and thankfully still works. Moreover it works just great. I am a student so I use computer not only for games but for studies too. It runs all the programs i need just perfectly. The full size keyboard really does it's job it is really more comfortable to use full sized keyboard in laptop rather than the small one. The battery life is great too - it lasts for about three hours. Which is really good for a laptop with 15,6 inch screen. However there are some disadvantages. The biggest one is the chassis of the lap top. It is very slippery and it gets messy really quickly so you often need to clean it. To sum up my opinion I would like to say that for this price this Asus laptop is one of the best in ...

Advantages: Good battery life, Good specifications, Wireless N and Bluetooth Disadvantages: Better netbooks available, Poor webcam
not particularly demanding but I can always hear the drive working away, which I can do without when I'm not really doing anything intensive. I don't know if it's because Asus used cheap drives again but with 1GB of RAM, I expected a little bit better.
I like the wireless connectivity capabilities of this laptop, as it has Bluetooth as well as Wireless (WiFi) connectivity. Bluetooth is useful to me as I sometimes have photos on my phone that I need to load onto a computer to email or upload somewhere. This saves me having to install software and plug a cable to my phone to get the pictures onto the computer. I also have the ability to connect to the Internet on my phone and then share the Internet with a computer to to enable Internet access via the phone's connection. This can be achieved over the Bluetooth as well if I don ...
Advantages: Cost Effective (£300) , Good Engineering, Taut & Tuneful Bass, Good sound quality, Good Build Quality, Easy installation. Disadvantages: Sounds hard when ill-matched & fed bad recordings
***MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. [5/5***
I had been to an AV Expo a year ago & that’s where I saw the m51& the m50. I found the m51 to be better than m50. And at £300 the kind of sound it makes is impressive. They come in Beech , Rosewood & Graphite Black finishes. The best I liked was the Graphite Black finish. Looked really classy. You can see that in the pic I have given below.
***SOUND QUALITY. [4/5]***
The m51’s sound in all ways much better than the m50’s. The m51’s have tight bass, kinda gut wrenching at times with a good hall effect & depth with well sprinkled moisture. Ideal for both Movies & as a hi-fi. The frequency response is 58Hz to 20kHz as compared to the 64Hz to 20kHz of the m50’s. That means you get deeper bass in the m51’s. The soundstage is pretty wide if not extremely ...
