ASUS UL30JT-A1 13.3-Inch Lightweight Laptop - Black | Ultra-Thin Design, Long Battery Life | Perfect for Business, Travel & College Students

Overall this is an awesome laptop!Pro's:- Great Battery life....using turbo mode contantly and performing various tasks I can usually get 6 hours or so, which is pretty good. With turbo mode off and setting the LCD brighness down and changing a few other settings will probably keep you going longer, but for what I need it for I leave turbo on constantly and am very happy with 6 hours or more.- Seems to be very durable, it has brushed aluminum for a top cover and around the keyboard/touchpad area. Makes it look very nice/sleak. Also with being less that 1" thick, it this laptop looks very modern and sleak.- HDMI output port is awesome. I use this contantly to connect my 50" flat panel TV to it. Nice to watch streaming video, hd content, etc on the big screen! The best part is it's plug and play too, soon as I plug the cord in, it's ready to go and fits on my Television screen perfectly without having to change any settings.- Very lightweight and portable, but still very powerful and fast! Probably almost as light or lighter than most netbooks, but much more powerful! I don't play any hardcore graphic intense games on this, but this laptop seems much more powerful/fast than some of the netbooks I've used. This is probably the main reason I picked this laptop.- Fast Boot/Instant On feature is pretty cool. You can boot to just an Internet browser very quickly if needed without having to boot up into Windows.- It is very quiet and stays pretty cool in terms of temperature.- There probably are many other pros, but these are what come to mind most.Cons:- Some might say the screen is too glossy, which might be true, but it doesn't bother me and most laptops I've looked at has the glossy feature anyways so I would of been stuck with that with almost any model laptop out there.- Touchpad takes a little getting used to. The first day I got this it seemed very touchy/in-accurate, but after adjusting the settings and getting used to it now it seems like I like it now. You can scroll thru pages with two fingers in a flicking motion and do a right-click with three fingers so once you get used to these features then you'll find yourself cruising thru webpages, docs, etc. very quickly. So give it some time to get used to and you'll probably find yourself happy too.- Bloatware - although there is not a terrible amount of it there was a little bit. Mostly just free trialware games, kindle shortcuts, trial antivirus software, etc. I would prefer a clean install of Windows 7 with just the Asus drivers added, but it's not that big of a deal. I'm probably going to re-load a clean install of Windows 7 when I have time to, but in the meantime I'll live with it.So in summary I think this laptop is great! Definitely worth the money spent. Asus gives you 1 year accidental coverage included which is a really nice offering and if you register within, I think, 30 days they'll give you an extra year of accidental coverage. Not sure if that's offered to everyone or not, but it was included in my shipment. And the con's I've listed are really not that big of a deal in my opinion so I wouldn't worry about them. The pro's definitely outweigh any con's listed.
