Introduction
In the past, I always thought it would be nice to have only four years after having used the same laptop a laptop (and before that a number of laptops and PC's) I thought it was about time for a normal computer system. This suited me so well that I was completely out of looking at laptops. Just for my education was one of the requirements a laptop. So when I look at Tweakers.net for a laptop that will not only meet the minimum requirements where my training to early, but also a laptop which I can decent work and also to extend falls. I also wanted to make sure that I could do all my training with this laptop and I had to buy a new laptop because it no longer met the requirements. Not every year So I finally decided on the Asus N56VB-S4061H. This was coincidentally also beautiful within my budget. Inside the box The following items were in the box: - Manual - Driver CD - Mini Subwoofer - Asus N56VB-S4061H - Power adapter - Cloth v. monitor Experiences sizable one month I am now in possession This laptop. By now I've already changed some things on the hardware. As the memory expanded from 6GB to 16GB and the HDD replaced by an SSD. Because I have a new SSD (250GB Samsung 840 EVO) brought to my PC and the old SSD (Samsung 830 256GB) from my PC in the Asus laptop stopped. Since the SSD in the laptop is worse I no longer slow start to respond slowly and laptop. I usually just put the laptop in his sleep mode, but if for example I have to restart Windows updates or other programs the laptop again, it takes a while before it was launched. Also, some programs were suspended for a while simply because the hard drive is that they normally slow. I know that a hard drive to an SSD can not kwa read / write access time, and soon to hit just only this sense. The hard drive in my previous Asus laptop was even faster ... EDIT (21-12-13) After a few months my laptop to be in possession noticed something. The aluminum is damaged. A bit of a shame. Furthermore, there is no damage present on the laptop. downgrade OS After a few days I have Windows 7 installed on this laptop. Just because I can not go with Windows 8 to get to me missing the start button and the presence of the Metro interface. The Metro interface I find something more for a tablet. Probably will you be thinking, downgrade? That's not smart? No indeed, that's not so smart, I just could not find any good drivers and the laptop still works fine. Indeed, in combination with Windows 7, he even works faster for my feelings. EDIT (08-02-2014) Meanwhile for Windows 8.1 went with my laptop. Windows 8.1 have been a nice time run on my PC and I like to be fine. Touchpad Keyboard & Asus InstantKey I had in the beginning to get used to the touchpad because it something else crossed over the previous touchpads I together used in my other laptops. I must say, the features that are there to make working on the laptop be a lot more efficient. For example you can with two fingers a lot perform all functions. For example, in and out of web pages and photos, scroll (obviously) and rotating photos. There are also three fingers with a number of options. The keyboard just looks sleek and nicely finished off. The useful of it is, there is lighting embedded in the keyboard and thus it is easier for example to work in the dark. The keyboard also nice type. The keys are not really stiff and you do not need to press hard. A story types is a piece of cake. Initially I found the Asus InstantKey a bit useless. I also did not immediately know what to do with it. Then I had the idea to change. Power scheme with one simple click So when I have a night down the Internet and made a small, simple program manages on the Asus InstantKey changed the power scheme with one simple click. Sound & Picture Quality The sound quality actually surprised me a bit. There will be a very good and clear sound from the tiny speakers. Also nice there is the small subwoofer. I find that the subwoofer does not add very much to like music but movies again. Furthermore, the volume can also pretty hard. Even large rooms I can still hear the laptop fine. The image quality is also fine taste. The screen is very clear and the benefit of this method is, it supports a full HD resolution. This makes viewing images, movies and games etc quite a lot sharper. The text, for example web pages is also great to read on the 15.6 "monitor. Heat Production & Battery Life The Asus laptop is generally very quiet. barely there heavier tasks you hear him when you're sitting in a quiet room. Where the laptop are performed than he can sometimes be hot. example if I game Trine 2 play on the Asus laptop then he produces a lot of heat, and he starts making little bit more noise, but this is also not disturbing. The battery life is more than sufficient. If I do not overuse than I can more than 3 hours at work. I think a nice performance compared to my previous Asus laptop. 3 hours laptop This fact put down. 2 hours EDIT (08-02-2014) Under Windows 8.1, the battery is still a bit longer. HDDCaddy recently I also have a HDDCaddy ( Link ) purchased the Asus laptop. SSD only there is really fast, just space remains still quite limited with an SSD. So when I decided to purchase given that I DVD-ROM burner rarely used. HDDCaddy to a If I want to use it, I can always buy an external DVD-ROM burner and hang it on my laptop temporarily. The whole in the laptop and install the hard drive in the HDDCaddy itself is a piece of cake. Basically the same principle of replacing your DVD burner in your laptop. Another upgrade ... What I soon be going to do is replace the wireless network. This probably get the Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 . (Do this network now accumulated within only there appear to be some problems with the network card that Intel still has not been resolved., I'm probably now the Bigfoot Killer Wireless-N 1202.) On Tweakers and the Asus website states that the current network also supports the 5Ghz band only I can mine and other Wi-Fi networks in the 5Ghz band just can not find the current network. Benchmarks PerformanceTest 8.0 SSD & HDDCaddy + HDD, 16GB RAM AS SSD Samsung 830 in PC: AS SSD Samsung 830 in laptop: As you can see little difference between these two. Closing The Asus N56VB-S4061H is generally a good laptop and great performance. After some adjustments I have a laptop that reacts quickly and good to work with. The price is also not to complain for what you get for it about. The expansion possibilities are pretty wide. Thanks for reading my review and I hope this will start a hand to have helped. Wipe
