ASUS Eee PC 1215N Review: Atom and Ion, Back Together Again
Source: PC Perspective Archive.org version
Potential smudges aside, the Eee PC 1215N looks and feels like a netbook that is all grown up. The matte finish is professional, and the chassis itself is quite sturdy. The lid does not deform significantly under pressure, and the gaps between plastic panels are small. Upgrades could be better handled, however; while the plastic lid that covers the RAM is secured by just one screw and easy to remove, there is no easy access to the hard drive.

Asus' Eee PC 1215N is the most powerful Intel-based netbook we've tested, enhanced by an attractive design and great-feeling soft plastic finish. However, it's let down by its poor keyboard and premium price tag, which puts it up against AMD's NEO-based ultra-portables and even Intel's own CULV machines. Though it certainly survives the encounter, it doesn't come away unscathed.

Asus - Eee PC 1215N review
Source: IT Reviews Archive.org version
With decent performance, reasonable battery life and a good design, you're probably wondering what the catch is. Well, somewhat unsurprisingly, it's the price. At £429 the Eee PC 1215N is considerably more expensive than most netbooks. The 12-inch screen makes a big difference, though, and the higher-than-average resolution allows you to fit much more onto the desktop. All in all it's a decent netbook, but you're paying for the extra features. And although it's undeniably faster than a single-core netbook, the speed difference isn't massive. Samsung is marketing the RF-series as "high-end performance notebooks matched with a futuristic design". In essence, we won't refute its performance clause, judging from satisfactory results garnered on the PCMark and 3DMark benches. After all, the middle class laptop does come with an adequate quad-core solution and discrete graphics.

The Eee PC 1215N certainly isn't a bad effort from Asus, but it occupies something of an uncomfortable middle ground between bog-standard netbooks and fully fledged laptops. The performance increase over standard netbooks is definitely there, but it's not massive. That said, if you're after something small and light, and find the current crop of netbooks don't quite meet your power expectations, the Eee PC 1215N would be a good choice.

Performance with the Asus Eee PC 1215N was quite good, especially with HD video and playing movies. Videos loaded extremely quick and performance with other tasks, like the usual computing tasks, was very good also thanks to the new dual-core Intel CPU. Battery life with this Asus netbook is quite good as well, averaging about 5.5 hours of battery life, which is just ahead of other comparable netbooks on the market today.

ASUS EeePC 1215N: Bringing NG-ION to the 1201
Source: AnandTech Archive.org version
The 1215 is difficult to classify, and thus even more difficult to conclude on. While most people label it a netbook, I wouldn’t strictly call it so—I tend to define netbooks as anything with a 10” screen running Atom at a sub-$400 price point. The 1215N has more power, a larger screen, and a higher price tag, but it’s still running Atom so it’s not an ultraportable laptop either.

A 12in netbook that manages to outperform its rivals. Thanks to a dual-core Atom D252 processor and Nvidia's ION graphics, the Eee PC 1215N manages to out perform many of its rival netbooks. It's expensive, though, and anyone tempted to splash out should bear in mind that the performance boost isn't exactly monumental.

Like its predecessor, the Asus Eee PC 1201n, the Asus Eee PC 1215N netbook offers a bright 12.1-inch LCD display with a native resolution of 1366 by 768 pixels. That moves the Asus from netbook to entry-level ultraportable laptop, but the internals are all netbook-class components - albeit a high-end netbook.

Review: Asus Eee PC Seashell 1215N 12.1-inch netbook
Source: Geek.com Archive.org version
It’s a testament to the performance of this netbook that I would forgive the keyboard flex and choose this model if I was in the market for a new machine. I have not used another netbook that’s as capable for web browsing, media playback, and games while at the same time having good battery life. The larger screen is icing on the cake while the whole unit remains very portable.

ASUS's 1215N is the most powerful Eee PC we've seen, and it's a showcase of what next-generation netbooks could have to offer. Armed with a dual-core processor and both Intel and NVIDIA graphics, it raises the bar for netbook performance but in doing so raises the asking price into notebook territory. Dropping straight into the fiercely-contested £429 marketplace, the Eee PC 1215N faces stiff competition from notebooks such as the Dell Inspiron M101z and tablets such as the Apple iPad.

This is a much better pricing compared to the VX6, as you're basically getting the same internals for a lower price. You're still losing out on USB 3.0 in this configuration, but hopefully it can be configured. We really liked the 1215N for its good multimedia performance and decent battery life. It looks great and has a good screen for working or watching movies. My only gripe right now is the mouse buttons that are terrible and unusable (hopefully it's just our unit). Also, we would have liked to see USB 3.0 included at this price.

Still, it’s a significant step up in performance and connectivity from a regular netbook, only with a fair chunk of the battery life retained and avoiding the price of a standard ultraportable. Intel’s mobility-focused Atom N550 processor will likely err on the side of longevity (the D525 is intended as a desktop chip) but if your multimedia demands fall between the netbook and notebook camps then the ASUS Eee PC 1215N might well fit that gap. For £429/$485 we can forgive the flexing keyboard and missing USB 3.0 since the performance holds up so well.

The Asus Eee PC 1215N is certainly the highest performance netbook currently on the market. Its dual-core processor gives ease of use in office doc processing and the ION chipset handles video very well. It does however struggle with recent video games and suffers because of the disappointing glossy panel, which cost it its fifth star in our rating.

The Eee PC 1215N is an impressive netbook, especially if you want something larger than the 10in, 1024 x 600 norm. You pay for the privilege, but the premium gets you a machine that can just hold its own against similar sized sub-notebooks with higher-class CPUs - and put their various GPUs all to shame.

We still maintain that Asus should tweak a few design aspects, including the single trackpad bar and the painfully glossy display and somewhat flimsy build materials. We were also let down by the lack of Bluetooth 3.0 and USB 3.0; we're hearing that some international 1215N SKUs will have these technologies, but not the $499 U.S. model. That's a real shame.

Growing larger on the outside and more powerful on the inside, netbooks here in late 2010 are resembling regular laptops more and more every day. Helmed by Nvidia’s Optimus technology and a dual-core processor, this netbook zooms past its peers. Anyone undecided between a portable netbook and a full-featured laptop should consider this system.

The sample of 1215N that we've had tested proved to be an all-around good one - it's responsive and enables fluent work, at least in terms of what you'd expect to be doing on an Eee PC. NVIDIA graphics, multimedia capabilities - especially HD video playback - and good battery autonomy all add to this netbook's value, which, owing to its decent keyboard, needn't only be a secondary, "on-the-fly" computer. Although the final price of this model hasn't been revealed to us just yet, we'll make an approximation; the model with 2 GB RAM (instead of 4 GB) and a 250 GB HDD (instead of 320 GB) costs 450, which, with all the other advantages that we've mentioned, gives a decent price/performance ratio.

After all was said and done, I think that the ASUS Eee 1215N really performed well for its expected use. This machine came in dead last on a couple of my benchmarks, but obliterated all but one of the competition when it came to battery life. That positions this netbook in the perfect spot for the person who is less worried about being able to do things like encoding media and more into a machine that can stream video between classes or meetings and has the power for average computer work when you need to be all business for a very long time on a single charge. This might be the perfect netbook to complement a larger, more powerful, but less portable full notebook or desktop computer. If you are into a lot of media encoding and editing, the 1215N might not meet your needs alone, but if you want a platform for movie watching and entertainment and have a second machine to do the heavy workloads, the 1215N is a great option.

There are now a plethora of options for those who want to buy a sub-$500 notebook they can take anywhere, and the ASUS Eee PC 1215N provides the best bang for the buck. While AMD-powered 11.6-inch ultraportables offer comparable processing power, they don't last as long on a charge as this machine and don't provide as much graphics muscle. That's the difference Nvidia's Optimus technology makes. Yes, you could get a similarly sized Intel ULV laptop that offers more pep and even longer battery life (like the Acer Aspire Timeline 1830T), but you'd have to cough up at least $200 more. Call it a supercharged netbook or a notebook. The bottom line is that for those on a budget, the Eee PC 1215N can't be beat.

Once you take away all the things that hamper traditional netbooks a slow CPU, limited RAM, Intel graphics and add a 1366x768 screen, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, and an HDMI port, is the end result even still a netbook? We say yes: the 1215N is sleek and doesn't feel cheap, but at $500, it's not breaking the bank or, at just over 3 pounds, your back. We defy you to get similar performance from a $500 ultraportable.

ASUS has once again shown why the Eee PC line of netbooks remains popular with many consumers. The new Eee PC 1215N offers the best overall performance we've seen from an Atom-based netbook. Battery life isn't as good as the best single-core netbooks, but it is better than the previous 12-inch Eee PC. In truth, the only things we didn't like about this netbook were all related to design. First, the keyboard was too bouncy and the touchpad buttons are just horrible. We also would have liked to see easier access to the hard drive and wireless cards since many well-informed owners add new hard drives or SSDs to their netbooks. Still, it's hard to find another 12-inch laptop that offers better performance for just $500 retail price. If you want an ultraportable netbook with a good screen and good performance for less than the price of a CULV-based notebook then the ASUS Eee PC 1215N probably belongs at the top of a very short list.

With all those amazing specs and performance, the Asus Eee PC 1215N is more like a sub-notebook than a netbook. It has Optimus Technology that translates in more efficient battery usage based on the CPU load and finally, it lets you play some of the most amazing games out there, at low/medium detail. The use of Atom D525 and next-generation ION graphics is a winner combo as it scored nearly 1000 points more in 3DMark06 benchmark compared to Asus 1201n that came with Atom 330 and first-generation ION graphics.

If i were to go for a compact computer with good multimedia performances, the Asus 1215N would be that one. It is good looking, well built and powerful, so definitely a good pick. It is true that for about the same price you can get laptops with ULV hardware; those will be faster in everyday tasks, because of the better processors, but will not be a match for this one in terms of graphics.

ASUS is late to the AMD Fusion party, but the Eee PC 1215B offers slightly better overall performance than competing ultraportables from HP and Sony. And, at $439, the 1215B manages to undercut the competition, and is even $30 less expensive than its Ion counterpart (though the 1215N is better for gaming). Still, in this category, the HP dm1z is tops. For just $10 more, you get a snazzier design, 3GB of RAM, a 320GB, 7,200-rpm hard drive, and an extra hour of battery life. But if you want USB 3.0, good sound, and a good selection of software at a reasonable price, the 1215B is a strong value.

Nothing changed on the outside from the 1215N, there’s the same seashell body covered in matte rubbery plastic, same keyboard, trackpad and display. However, the 1215B is faster than the 1215N, especially in terms of graphics, so will be able to deal with any kind of HD content and some modern games as well. Plus, you get superior battery life and a smaller price. All these make the 1215B a winner. And with the 1215N being a popular pick, I’m pretty sure the 1215B will get its share of fame, although some might fear picking an AMD powered laptop these days (but there’s no reason to, as the new Fusion platform really is impressive).

Asus has priced the 1215B quite well at Rs. 17,999 and a one-year on-site warranty. This is without Windows 7 Starter, so even if we had to include the OS cost it should not go beyond 20K. For this price you're getting a 12.1-inch screen, great keyboard, HDMI, decent battery life and the ability to easily playback 1080p content, thanks to AMD's Fusion APU. If you're looking for the cheapest 12-inch netbook that plays back 1080p and has a good battery life then the 1215B seems to fit the bill perfectly.

The HP Pavilion dm1z is another good choice, but there are three good reasons to consider the Asus notebook over HP’s model. The Eee PC 1215B features a much better touchpad. The laptop also has a USB 3.0 port, if that’s the sort of thing that matters to you. And the Asus notebook is typically a bit cheaper than HP’s model unless you happen to pick up the Pavilion dm1z when it’s on sale. The Asus Eee PC 1215B is also available in a variety of colors. While Asus sent me the solid black model, you can also find the laptop with white and red cases, although the screen bezel and keyboard are black on all three versions.

Asus: ASUSTeK Computer Incorporated, a Taiwanese multinational company, produces motherboards, graphics cards, optical drives, PDAs, computer monitors, notebook computers, servers, networking products, mobile phones, computer cases, computer components, and computer cooling systems. The company's 2007 revenues reached US$6.9 billion. ASUS also produces components for other manufacturers. The Eee PC initiated the netbook boom in 2008.

In the notebook sector, Asus had a global market share of about 11% from 2014-2016, making it the fourth largest laptop manufacturer. In the smartphone sector, Asus is not among the Top 5 and has only a small market share (as of 2016).

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

NVIDIA ION 2: ION2 is a GT218 graphics chip for Pinetrail Atom systems (D510, D410, N450) with 8 or 16 shader cores depending on the platform (10", 12", desktop). Compared to ION 1, ION 2 is a dedicated graphics card (connected only by a PCIe 1x due to the Pinetrail limitations) based on the GeForce 305M / 310M. Supports PureVideo HD to decode HD videos.

AMD Radeon HD 6310: Integrated graphics card in the Zacate netbook processors (e.g. E-350 and E-240) featuring an UVD3 video decoder and no dedicated memory.

AMD Radeon HD 6250: Integrated graphics card in the Ontario netbook processors (e.g. C-50 and C-30) featuring an UVD3 video decoder and no dedicated memory.

AMD Radeon HD 6320:

Intel Atom: The Intel Atom series is a 64-Bit (not every model supports 64bit) microprocessor for cheap and small notebooks (so called netbooks), MIDs, or UMPCs. The speciality of the new architecture is the "in order" execution (instead of the usual and faster "out of order" execution). Therefore, the transistor count of the Atom series is much lower and, thus, cheaper to produce. Furthermore, the power consumption is very low. The performance per Megahertz is therfore worse than the old Pentium 3M (1,2 GHz on par with a 1.6 GHz Atom).

D525: For Nettops intended dual core Atom processor that is also used in Netbooks. The D525 has an integrated DDR2/DDR3 memory controller and a GMA3150 graphics core. Due to the missing Speedstep, the battery runtime is clearly worse than with other Atom CPUs.

AMD E-Series:

E-350: Dual Core low power processor with an integrated graphics cards. The processor is on a level with Celeron SU2300 (1.2 GHz) and the GPU part about as fast as an Nvidia ION (2).

E-450:

AMD C-Series:

C-50: Dual Core low power processor with an integrated graphics cards. Due to the low clock speed, the CPU should be only as fast as a single core Atom CPU, but offers a faster integrated GPU.

1.4 kg:

In former time,s this weight was typical for big tablets, small subnotebooks, ultrabooks and convertibles with a 10-11 inch display-diagonal. Nowadays, often 15 inch laptops weigh as much.

1.53 kg:

This weight is typical for very old and big tablets, subnotebooks, ultrabooks and convertibles with a 11-13 inch display-diagonal; nowadays, rather typical for 15 inch laptops.

76.98%: This rating is not convincing. The laptop is evaluated below average, this is not really a recommendation for purchase.
