Netbooks are used for easy connectivity to the internet, portability and multimedia and there is one model out there that seems to nail each of these features right on the head. That is the Asus Eee PC 1201N. This highly-portable device can handle gaming and multimedia features well and captures the enjoyment and simplicity that isn’t found in other mini-computers. For a side-by-side comparison and more objective reviews of these highly ranked products, visit our netbook page.
Design:
One of the beauties of the Asus Eee PC 1201N is the screen display. With a 1366 x 768 pixel resolution, bright, vivid and crisp colors will stick out on the 12.1-inch screen. The large display screen makes it much easier for viewing web pages, reading and gaming. However, one drawback to the larger display is the weight of the device. The Asus weighs more than other models which makes it difficult to carry everywhere you go. Although, at 3.1 pounds this is not the heaviest model we have seen but it tops the list. This device also provides a comfortable typing experience with a chiclet-style keyboard and a touchpad with multi-touch gestures.
This Asus model was designed with multiple ports for the use of additional hardware. Three USB ports, Wi-Fi and HDMI outputs make the computer useful for plugging in a mouse or charging other electronics. The addition of these ports offers a better package than many of the models on the market.
Multimedia features were heavily added to this device. The Asus Eee PC 1201N comes with a 0.3MP (megapixel) webcam, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Ethernet along with stereo speakers. This mini-computer can also play HD files well and can export 1080p video content.
User Interface Features:
The Asus Eee PC 1201N doesn’t use the Intel Atom N450 processor which is a disappointment but instead uses the Intel Atom N330 dual core processor. This processor gives the Asus Eee PC 1201N the ability to multitask in a way that most mini-computers can’t. With the dual core processor, this computer is fast, but certainly not the fastest available.
Also included is an Nvidia Ion graphics processor. This is what gives the Asus its enhanced gaming performance and ability for 1080p playback. The graphics card enhances this PC and is what helps it beat out many other models. Still, the Nvidia Ion graphics does contain a few disadvantages. The processor can decrease productivity because you now have the power to play games and watch movies in HD instead of getting that pesky work or homework completed.
Memory/Battery Life:
To make this Asus more useful and efficient, this device offers 2GB of RAM and 250GB on the hard drive. Most mini-computers come with only 1GB of memory so the extra 1GB is a nice addition for music, videos and other multimedia features. Also, support for SD, MMC and SDHC cards is available for additional room.
One weakness of this Asus is the battery life. The Asus Eee PC 1201N gets a minimal five hours of running time. It still is better than the three hours the Acer Aspire One D250 receives but if you are looking for a product that you can use throughout most of the day, large projects or long trips, this will not be the right one for you.
Summary:
The Asus Eee PC 1201N offers many features to make your gaming and multimedia experience enjoyable and well worth your money. It will never be the best gaming computer out there, but no netbook ever will. If portability is your main necessity and gaming or multimedia options are just bonuses, this will be the computing device you may want to take a look at.
