Reviews for the Asus X554LJ-XX002D

ASUS X554LJ review – entry-level notebooks are getting better and better
Source: Laptop Media English Archive.org version
While the design is mostly a subjective opinion and it’s hard to make a good assessment on the matter, we kind of liked how the notebook looks. It’s clean, strict and features the usual design signature we’re used with seeing on an ASUS machine. On the other hand, the build quality left us with mixed feelings due to the not so sturdy lid and keyboard. Both sink a lot under pressure so leaving heavy objects on top of the laptop isn’t advisable.

As for the hardware, we liked that ASUS has managed to include a higher-tier CPU (Intel Core i3-5010U) and GPU (GeForce 920M) – both part of the new Broadwell and Maxwell families given the price. Some notebooks are even shipping with Pentium processors, so better all-around hardware than the competition is at hand here. As for the battery life, we are more than satisfied. The readings we got from the battery tests indicate that you can rely on the notebook to keep running for longer periods of time without the need of charging.

Model: The Asus X554LJ-XX002D is a notebook designed for everyday use that does not break the budget. Its Intel Core i3 processor clocked at 2.1 GHz is supported by 4 GB of DDR3 RAM. The RAM capacity can be upgraded to 8 GB if deemed necessary. The hard drive capacity is 1 TB, which is suitable for average users as most multimedia content can be stored on external storage media. Screen size is 15.6 inch but only displays a resolution of mere 1366 x 7687 pixels. The NVIDIA GeForce 920M graphic card with 1 GB VRAM can run some modern games.

There are two USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0 port for connecting peripherals. On top of that, a VGA and HDMI slot are also available. No operating system apart from DOS comes preinstalled on this notebook. Hence users have to install their choice of operating system. Total weight is kept to a minimum at 2.2 kg to ensure portability and the sleek profile of just 2.58 cm gives it a classy look. The model is only available in a single color, which is black. Finally, this notebook is an excellent pick for users looking for an everyday device with a satisfactory battery life and portability.

NVIDIA GeForce 920M: Renamed GeForce 825M Kepler based graphics card (GK208) with sligthly higher clock speed.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

5010U: Broadwell-based ULV (ultra low voltage) dual-core processor for notebooks and ultrabooks. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 5500 GPU and is manufactured in 14 nm.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


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.

2.6 kg:

With this weight, a laptop is rather heavier than average. Devices in this range shine more with screen size and performance than with mobility.
