80% Asus EeeBook X205TA / X205 review – the modern $199 laptop
Source: TLBHD English Archive.org version
The Asus EeeBook X205TA (X205) sure offers plenty for the $199 you'll have to pay for it and is a thin and light laptop suitable for kids, for travel and all of you looking for a small device that runs Windows and the compatible software. It's not without flaws and Asus did have to cut some corners here and there, but that was expected from a device that sells for this little.

It's easy to pick holes in cheap laptops. You have to take from one place to improve another and it shows. But Asus seems to have the balance right in the EeeBook X205. The only question is whether it has the performance to run Windows comfortably and thus stave off the Chromebooks.

Asus EeeBook X205TA-FD005BS

The Asus EeeBook X205TA-FD005BS is a capably netbook priced almost similar to a mid-range smartphone. Do not be fooled by the low price of the device as the netbook is made to feel premium and sturdy. Asus has much knowhow in laptop and netbook device production therefore it is no surprise if they manage to get that done. The Asus EeeBook X205TA-FD005BS comes in an entirely white chassis excluding the black bezel around the screen. There is an 11.6 inch 16:9 glossy screen which does enough to ensure users feel comfortable viewing. Hardware consists of an Intel Atom Z3735F processor clocked at 1.33 GHz, 2 GB DDR3L 1333 SDRAM, Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail) and 32 GB eMMC flash storage. Contrary to more current architectures, this does not allow a fan-less design, but the EeeBook X205TA-FD005BS remains light and quiet enough. The 980g netbook also comes with HD audio, 2 USB 2.0 ports, 1 HDMI, Bluetooth 4.0 and a card reader. The webcam on the devices falls short as it features an outdated resolution of 640X480 pixels. The Asus EeeBook X205TA-FD005BS's keyboard has a distinctive feedback, which makes it comfortable to type with. Battery life is very good with Asus claiming a run time of 12 hours using a 38Wh Lithium-Polymer battery.

75% First Impressions: Asus EeeBook X205TA-FD005BS in Review | Notebookcheck
Netbook, redefined. Asus sells a handy subnotebook with Windows 8.1 Bing for 219 Euros (~$272). So how much netbook do customers get for so little money? Asus refers to elegance, premium experience, performance, 12 hours of web surfing, and vibrant colors. In addition, a one-year license for Office 365 is included. Is this all too good to be true?

ASUS EeeBook X205TA Review: $199 Windows Laptop
Source: PC Perspective English Archive.org version
Even if you're content using Google apps and web storage the ASUS EeeBook X205TA is a solid Windows-based option in the ~$200 notebook market. There are a couple of areas where I'd like to see improvement (beyond the display) such as the screen hinge and slow eMMC storage, but on the other hand it offers adequate performance and has great battery life. Overall it's very hard to fault a complete system of this quality that sells for $199.

Building a competitive cloudbook is a tough ask in the face of such strong competition, and while Asus has done alot right, the numerous flaws make the X205TA hard to recommend.­ If you're looking for an ultraportable, affordable laptop, then sadly the EeeBook X205TA just isn't good enough to compete with the HP Stream 11 - that's the one we'd buy.­

Source: Tech2.in.com English Archive.org version
So does the Asus EeeBook X205TA offer better value proposition than the Acer Chromebook C720? I would have to say yes, for the simple reason that this is a more familiar OS and you can use your regular Windows applications online as well as offline to get work done. The two issues that we had with the Acer Chromebook C720 included terrible display and bad keyboard – both areas where Asus EeeBook X205TA offers a better solution.

If you’re buying for someone where the weight matters, the Asus X205TA is a decent option as it provides Windows 8 on a budget with a soft keyboard and enough battery life to get a whole day of school work done. The glossy screen may throw some people because you’ll expect it to be touch-friendly, and the mouse could do with a little work, but if you’re patient and you get used to Windows using only that mouse, it’s easy to find a solid experience offered in the X205TA.

With the X205TA, Asus has set the bar for what a budget laptop should be. With a solid display, category-leading battery life and stereo speakers all packed in a slim, attractive body, the X205TA feels like a premium device -- without the premium price tag. Hopefully, Asus can sort out the touchpad irregularities with a drive update, but even without that update, the EeeBook X205TA is still the $200 laptop to get.

Asus has done a very impressive job to make such a capable machine costing so little. If you’re happy to take your work to the cloud and don’t mind paying a yearly fee of £60 for Office365, the Asus EeeBook X205TA is a terrific buy, even when compared to our favourite Chromebooks. If you’re happy to spend slightly more and reject the cloud completely, the Acer Aspire E3-111 would be a worthy alternative: it's more powerful and has a 500GB hard disk.

EeeBook X205TA uses 1.33GHz Intel Atom Bay Trail-T platform with Z3745D processor (4 cores, 4 threads), 2GB of DDR3 memory and offers 32GB of internal memory (approximately 21GB is available to the user). Although there is no physical option to upgrade storage space, ASUS WebStorage is provided for the period of 2 years and 115GB OneDrive also for 2 years, which is a good deal. The graphics card is integrated, as well as Bluetooth 4.0 and WiFi 802.11n adapters, as expected, and the manufacturer opted for 32Wh Polymer battery. Autonomy will depend on the usage, it goes up to 12 hrs, which is great and it will certainly be one of the most important things when it comes to this model.
Positive: Good performance; great autonomy; for this category, a good screen; very favorable price; good impression.

Although there is no physical option to upgrade storage space, ASUS WebStorage is provided for the period of 2 years and 115GB OneDrive also for 2 years, which is a good deal. The graphics card is integrated, as well as Bluetooth 4.0 and WiFi 802.11n adapters, as expected, and the manufacturer opted for 32Wh Polymer battery. Autonomy will depend on the usage, it goes up to 12 hrs, which is great and it will certainly be one of the most important things when it comes to this model.
Positive: Good performance; great autonomy; for this category, a good screen; very favorable price; good impression.

Asus Eeebook E402M Review
Source: The Mobile Indian English Archive.org version
Now for the final call, the Asus E402M impressed us with its design and price, however, it is no more than a regular browsing notebook. If you want to gift your little kid a notebook that is perfect for regular tasks, the Asus E402M can be considered, otherwise, the notebook doesn’t offer anything extraordinary. No doubt, it is portable and comes with an impressive price of around Rs 15,000, but we better spend a little more and get a full fledged notebook for all kind of work.

80% Review: Asus EeeBook E402M Elegant White - the EeeBook ain't'n't dead yet!
Source: PC Authority English Archive.org version
It’s easy to criticise the EeeBook E402MA when comparing it to $1000+ laptops, but when measured against others in the same price range it’s actually not such a bad deal. Our biggest concern is the screen quality, which really should have been at least 1080p at this size. Yet for a mere $500, this machine does the job, provided you’re in no hurry to get that job done.

Comment

Asus: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. is a major Taiwanese computer hardware manufacturer based in Taipei, founded in 1989. Under the Asus brand name, the company manufactures a wide range of products, including laptops, desktops, motherboards, graphics cards, monitors, smartphones and networking equipment, complete systems and PC components for end users.

Under the ROG (Republic of Gamers) brand name, ASUS manufactures gaming laptops known by gamers for their powerful specifications, dedicated graphics cards, high refresh rate displays and advanced cooling systems.

Beyond gaming, a wide range of notebooks are offered for different needs and budgets, from ultra-slim and lightweight ultrabooks to versatile 2-in-1 convertibles and budget-friendly options. In 2023, Asus had a 7% global market share of the PC market.

Customer satisfaction with ASUS notebooks concerns performance, the features, and the good price-performance ratio of ASUS notebooks. However, as with any brand, there are occasional reports of problems such as overheating, driver compatibility, or build quality issues.


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

Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail):

Integrated GPU for tablet and notebook Bay Trail SoCs. Based on the Ivy Bridge GPU with four Execution Units and support for DirectX 11.

Intel HD Graphics (Cherry Trail): Integrated graphics card in the Cherry-Trail SoCs. Based on a Broadwell GPU (Intel Gen8) and supports DirectX 11.2. Depending on the SoC offers 12 or 16 EUs.

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

Intel HD Graphics (Braswell): Integrated graphics card in the Intel Braswell series (Celeron and Pentium) processors. Based on the Broadwell architecture (Intel Gen8) supporting DirectX 11.2. Depending on the processor offers 12 or 16 shader cores (EU) and different clock speed.

Intel HD Graphics 400 (Braswell): Integrated graphics card in the Intel Braswell series (2016 Celeron) processors. Based on the Broadwell architecture (Intel Gen8) supporting DirectX 11.2. Depending on the processor offers 12 shader cores (EU) and different clock speeds.

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).

Z3735D: SoC with an integrated quad-core Atom processor clocked up to 1.83 GHz, an Intel HD Graphics GPU and a single channel DDR3L-RS-1333 memory controller.

Z3735F: SoC with an integrated quad-core Atom processor clocked up to 1.83 GHz, an Intel HD Graphics GPU and a single channel DDR3L-RS-1333 memory controller.

Intel Celeron:

N3050: SoC with an integrated dual core Atom processor clocked at 1.6 - 2.16 GHz, an Intel HD Graphics GPU and a dual channel DDR3L-1600 memory controller.

N2840: Soc with an integrated dual core Atom processor clocked at up to 2.58 GHz and an Intel HD Graphics GPU.

N3060: SoC with an integrated dual core Atom processor clocked at 1.6 - 2.48 GHz, an Intel HD Graphics GPU and a dual channel DDR3L-1600 memory controller.

Intel Atom x5:

Z8300: Soc with an integrated quad core Atom processor clocked at 1.44 - 1.84 GHz, an Intel HD Graphics GPU and a dual channel LPDDR3-1600 memory controller.

No weight comment found (one expected)!


74.68%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
