The Bottom Line:
Buy this product if you are interested in a compact and sleek netbook with a low pricetag.
Asus Eee packs utility and convenience into a sleek and modern package with this product. I was in the laptop market due to the ever-approaching day that I enter college, and decided to buy this product because it seemed to be the best fit for a student frequently carrying a laptop from class to class. I have to say that I am very pleased with my purchase and would gladly recommend this product to someone else.
The laptop itself is very compact and weighs no more than 3 pounds, making it ideal for a student or someone desiring high transportability. The design of the netbook is very sleek and modern, apparently modeled after a seashell, and is available in either blue, pink, black, or white. A major plus of this product is the keyboard which, despite the product's small size, does not suffer a cramped or small feel. I am fairly certain that even someone with medium to large hands would be able to type on this keyboard with little trouble. Also, I greatly appreciate the lack of fingerprints and glare due to the matte finish on the fairly large 10.1" screen.
Now, I know that the box totes an 11 hour battery life, but I'm going to assume that that's only if the computer is on the lowest brightness setting performing little to no tasks. However, the battery life is still GREAT on this thing, averaging about eight hours even while performing high-energy tasks.
While this computer is a great value product, it certainly does suffer its drawbacks. After three months of owning this netbook, my AC adapter is still fully functioning, but according to many consumer reports, it can be extremely shoddy and die fairly quickly after purchase. Also, the speakers on this product are nothing to rave about, as they have a very grainy sound and don't quite reach an optimal sound level.
Overall, the Asus Eee Seashell PC is perfect for someone who wants a highly transportable netbook that can provide great battery life and sleek looks all for a low price.
