Reviews for the Asus X553MA-XX044H

40% Asus X553MA review
Source: Expert Reviews English Archive.org version
In our battery tests, the system lasted 4h 32m, which isn't terrible although we'd like to see a bit more. The charger itself is pleasingly small without a large, heavy power brick, so the 2.2kg laptop is easier to carry around without any additional bulk. With its flexible chassis, poor display and slow performance, the X553MA isn't a great choice despite its low price. If you can push your budget further, the Dell Inspiron 15 5000 is a far superior laptop.

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
