Asus U2E-1P057E 11.1in SSD Ultra-Portable Notebook

 

Is it time for the Sony TZ to move aside? Asus returns with another stab at the ultra-portable and this time it remembered the optical drive. Hooray!

Despite some niggling issues regarding the keyboard and a noisy fan, it's hard to ignore the value and quality on offer here. With two batteries in the box, HDMI output, 4GB RAM and an SSD for the same price as a fairly basic entry-level Sony TZ, it...

Asus U2E review

 

A stylish and well-featured ultraportable, but usability can be awkward

Lightweight but robust ; Stylish design ; 120GB storage ; Good feature set

Awkward keyboard ; Dull screen

Manages to pack in a lot for such a compact machine, but there are one or two niggles that may make you rethink whether it's worth your money

Asus U2E notebook

 

When it comes to trying something a little different with notebook design, Asus more than any other company is willing to go the extra mile. The successor to last year's U1, this year's model has a body that is made from stainless steel that not only...

Lightweight, great design, nice keyboard

Can run slow, average battery life

When it comes to usability, the Asus U2E is something of mixed blessing; the keyboard takes some getting used to and if you need to rely on it every day you'll need to get accustomed to carrying the larger battery pack. That said, it is versatile...

Asus U2E-1P014E review

 

Finished in grained black or brown leather and black metal trim, the compact U2E will appeal as an executive notebook for the well-heeled business traveller.

A stylish and well-featured ultraportable at the luxury end of the market, but ultimately more style over substance. And if the Asus U2E-1P014E appeals but the price seems a little steep, consider the ?1,199 black leather version with 120GB hard drive.

Asus U2E ultraportable laptop review

 

Go on, run your hands along the Asus U2E's leather-trim exterior. This ultraportable laptop's luxurious cladding and long list of extras will make you feel like you're handling premium gear. But we found other things to like about the Asus U2E beyond...

The Asus U2E is a fun, stylish notebook, and its cowhide couture is bound to turn some heads, though perhaps not those of die-hard Apple fans.

Asus U2E review

 

Asus has taken the Eee PC's winning design and morphed it into a leather-clad Vista ultraportable. Can it take the MacBook Air to Chinatown?

The same bomb-proof build quality of the Eee PC, only with a beautiful LED-lit screen and all the connections you'll ever need

Asus U2E-1P014E

 

How does Asus' entry into the premium ultraportable market compare with the likes of Apple and Sony? Mike Jennings finds out.

Interest in ultraportable laptops has been growing recently, with both budget Eee PC clones and dearer premium featherweights generating headlines. The latest manufacturer to throw its hat into the ring is Asus, with the 1.3kg U2E.The U2E looks more...

ASUS U2E

 

Sex and the laptop

DVD burner, HDMI, 32GB solid-state drive, Gigabit Ethernet and 802.11 draft-n networking

Small built-in storage capacity, the small battery won't last very long, uncomfortable touchpad, cooling fan is loud

This is a laptop for the fashion-conscious user who wants to get some work done on the road. It has good connectivity features and it is small and easy to carry, but don't expect to be able to perform taxing tasks on it.
