Asus N552VX Review – Not The Update We’Ve Expected But Adds Some Essential Features
Source: Gear Open Archive.org version
Once again ASUS has made an excellent multimedia laptop out of the N-series. The N552VX is all that we hoped it would be but with some considerable drawbacks compared to the good old N551. The chassis is updated with lower profile and lighter clamshell while keeping the already excellent keyboard and touchpad design. Another similarity between the N551 and N552 is the good IPS display. It features way above average properties for a good multimedia and gaming experience with the only drawback being the existence of PWM across all brightness levels. However, our Health-Guard profile can be used to limit the PWM to some extent and also improve the visibility in dark areas of an image.

The bottom line is that the ASUS N552VX is still one of the best multimedia/high-performance laptop in its class. Still, we suggest you consider the much lower priced models from HP and Lenovo – the HP Pavilion 15 and Lenovo Ideapad 700 – both of which offer the same hardware/performance, same storage options and much better battery life and portability. Nevertheless, the N552VX still holds an edge over them when it comes to build quality and display quality. So in the end, it really depends on your type of work, usage, and priorities.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.

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.

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