My Experience With Asus Eee pc 1000HE
Thursday, April 02, 2009Yeah. Finally, I received my Asus Epc 1000He, well of course, not just received, but I got it couple weeks ago. :-) But why I still need a netbook even though I have a vista ultimate, 22 inches sitting at home, plus my 15'4 Sony Vaio on my desk? Yes!, that's right, my stupid 15.4 Sony Vaio is a piece of garbage (pardon me for all Sony lovers out there) I am a huge Sony fan myself, I have use everything from Sony, such as the Play Station, the Sony Hi-Fi, The Camera, The Laptop, The Phone, The Music Player... bla bla bla. But seriously.. The Vaio I'm currently using, is "urg" speechless -_-"
In addition, 1000HE's another selling point is newest Intel Atom N-280, the 802.11b/g/n Wireless and Bluetooth 2.0, so 1000HE is able to enjoy more high-speed Internet experience. On top of that, the EEeepc come wit the hard disk capacity remains at 160GB. But as the Eee PC as part of the promotion, ASUS comes with a 10GB offered by the ASUS online space. But i think is useless (at least for me, 160GB is good for my school work)
And the last, the keyboard design is different than previous model, the new keyboard design is stylish and sturdy (same as mac book). The screen is a good size for watching movies, and the hotkeys are nice to be able to change the screen resolution so you can see full webpages without having to scroll over. The design of the netbook itself is pretty well done, I got mine in Black. But there is a cons, that is the thickness. Is a little thick for a netbook (Thicker than Lenovo S101), but still, better than Vaio. And the screen brightness is not as bright as a lot other notebooks. Oh.. also, I upgraded my memory to 2Gb..is..super!

okay.... I know that....
ReplyDeleteI have my eye on the HP touch screen. But I heard there aren't too many good reviews on the netbook itself. Should I get 1000HE instead? I am actually deciding between Asus 1000HE, HP Touch screen and samsung N10
ReplyDeleteI owned the Samsung netbook, the keyboard isn't as good as this one. You can't beat the "Mac" key.
ReplyDeletei'm getting a Dell laptop soon :D
ReplyDeleteglad to know that VAIO is not worth to buy
Dell have some pretty decent laptop. Check out Toshiba also.
ReplyDeletewow sounds like nt bad. i'm using sony VGN-FZ17G. quite ok for me hehe. anyway, thanks for sharing ya!
ReplyDeleteSony is not as bad as you think. Is quite decent too. But the Cons is...battery life are way too sort, on top of that, is pretty pricey.

ReplyDeleteit looks cool, but im using dell =D
ReplyDeleteI love HP :)
ReplyDeletegreat review ^^ personally i prefer the new MSI wind 120U :D
ReplyDeleteI'm using the 1000HA, it was good. but seems like 1000HE has improved in the keyboard design and use the N280 atom.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely a good netbook. Worth for the price and quality. too Bad. Can't buy it in Malaysia and is too expensive in RM
ReplyDeleteget the EPC and purchase a touch-screen kit later. voila!
ReplyDeleteyeah, i've been thinkin about ASUS 1000HE lately ^^, i guess it's main power is the battery.. others are optional.. my second choice possibly MSI Wind 115 with 6/9 cell battery..
ReplyDeletebut ASUS is ~100$ more expensive in indonesia than another product T^T whyyy~
