Good laptop, I haven't had any problems with its speed. Watching movies is great, basically all the normal performance is really good

Not a gaming laptop, this isn't really a con as one should expect but it really doesn't run much. Newegg's re-certified is not up to par with all of its other services. It's a non-refundable re-certified laptop, where's the logic in this? It also seems...

Intel i3 processors are very power efficient so this laptop has a very long battery life

The wireless internet switch on the front is completely useless because if i switch it the computer has a seizure and I cannot get the wireless to work for at least another 5min ; After running full screen videos for over 20min the screen keyboard and...

This is a very good value for the price. It is a powerful computer that has handled everything I have asked it to do very well. It is very thin and light and the battery life is better than any laptop i have owned. Has dedicated numpad; the sound is...

It is thin and flimsy! Constuction is all plastic. No bells and whistles (not expected at this price). Entire keyboard area moves as you type on it, especially numpad. Keboard text is all one color, fn keys are not blue as most are

Has great components, I was happy to get some of intel's latest technology for under $500. The body is very solid, keys feel good, and it's beautiful. Numpad is very nice, USB ports on 3 corners of the machine for practicality. Speakers are pretty loud...

The touchpad is very difficult to use because of the multi gesture software. All of your motions have to be extremely precise otherwise nothing will happen, or it will try to do two different things at the same time (zoom and scroll down+right). It...

Great amount of horsepower for the price ; Good screen size ; Great battery life

WLAN switch doesn't always shut my WiFi off ; My iPod touch wont work with this laptop, I called Apple and they said that the chipset in the U50F is incompatible with the iPod touch and iPhone

There really is a lot thats great about this laptop, but these are the best points ; Crisp clear screen ; Great speaker quality ; Fast Processor ; A lot of RAM ; 500 GB Hard drive ; For the money this is one of the best laptops to buy

Not sure why but the DVD drive didn't have a region code set, so I had to manually set one. It works perfectly now though ; This isn't really a con for me, but for those of you that rely on a user manual I didn't get one with mine, so don't expect one...

amazing fast ; tons of space ; LOVE IT

Battery runs out too fast ; Had to reformat the WIndow program because the Wireless didn't work. But Asus staff were awesome

Very light for a 15.6" laptop ; HDMI output ; Great for work, as well as watching movies and what not ; Great value for what you get

No light indication for num lock (I know, most random flaw I've ever seen) ; Might as well try looking for an i5 processor first ; Integrated graphics card. But I guess you can't exactly expect any better for the price

I really liked this Laptop, worked really great ; Pretty decent battery life, fast, ran cool under full load

Only worked for about a week, then wouldn't turn on any more ; Showed to be getting power, but nothing happened when pushing the power on switch ; Video was ok, but not the greatest. Did play Combat Arms, but with some lag

Light, good size, comfortable

No backlit keys
