Today, we're taking a look at a member of that new breed of laptops, the Asus K53E, which plays host to the i5-2520M as well as a 15.6" LCD panel and a run-of-the-mill six-cell battery. By running the K53E through our mobile test suite, we'll get a feel for the kind of performance and unplugged run time you can expect from an everyday Sandy Bridge laptop—the kind you might find at Best Buy for well under $700.
We'll also get a sense of the Asus K53E, which, unlike the 17" Compal review unit we studied in January, is an honest-to-goodness retail system (though the exact configuration we'll be testing doesn't appear to be available for sale right now). K53E models with slower Sandy Bridge CPUs and less exotic specifications can be nabbed for as little as $704.59 at Compuvest right now. If the system's battery life, performance, and build quality are what they should be, the K53E could be a sweet deal. Read more...
