Asus N551JW (GTX 960M) Notebook Review

High-quality entertainment. The latest edition of Asus' paragon multimedia laptop promises more power in all sectors. The whole thing has only one catch: The buyer has to dig deeper into their pocket.

System performance, Build, Noise under load, Maintenance covers, Subwoofer included

Somewhat spongy trackpad, Somewhat bulky

Asus is true to its principles and presents us with a successful and elegant multimedia laptop. As usual, the workmanship is satisfactory. The device could only be slightly slimmer for our taste. The input devices are even suitable for prolonged office...

Asus N551ZU Notebook Review

As quiet as a mouse. They are rare indeed: Multimedia laptops equipped with AMD APUs and a powerful dedicated Radeon core. The overall performance is impressive - provided the price is reasonable.

Rigid casing, Moderate noise, Solid gaming performance, Decent application performance, DisplayPort (FreeSync) and HDMI, Good input devices, Maintenance cover, Subwoofer included

TFT w/ pale colors, tight viewing angles, No "Gigabit Wi-Fi", Some games "throttle" due to the weak APU

With its N551ZU-CN007H, Asus puts a good laptop on the desk: The 15-inch device features a solid build, has maintenance options, useful input devices, and does not get too loud or too warm during use. Generally speaking, the performance of AMD's APU...

Asus N551JK-CN166H Notebook Review

Silver entertainer. Asus introduces an overall well-designed, representative all-rounder in stylish aluminum looks to the upper-range for approximately 1000 Euros (~$1134). It is even possible to risk a game owing to the GeForce GTX 850M. Only the...

Stylish, well-built casing, Successful metal imitation, DisplayPort installed, VGA omitted, Dual-band Wi-Fi, Maintenance cover, Decent touchpad, Bright, high-contrast IPS screen, Good to very good application and gaming performance, Perfect Turbo...

Casing could be slimmer, No noteworthy accessories, No Gigabit Wi-Fi, Maintenance cover fitted too tightly, Too small number pad, No real SSD

The final rating makes it evident that Asus' N551JK-CN166H completely convinced us in the test. We did not discover any really severe shortcomings. Of course, choosing a 47-watt CPU with only two physical cores is a bit questionable, but that was...

Asus N551VW-FW258T

Nice clean design. Fast boot up. Good graphics.

Some fonts are foggy - put that down to windows 10. Also in integrated email App leaves something to be desired.

Asus N551VW-FW258T

Great IPS panel. Really nice keyboard for a laptop. Aluminium chassis is nice, but only covers half of the laptop. The 960m is an amazing GPU to have at this price. Comes with a little subwoofer.

Pretty heavy and large. Comes with bloat Ware. Plastic housing underneath. Under full load, battery isn't long-lasting.
