First-hand consumer opinion about the cheap 15-inch laptop Asus X55V, which we reviewed some time ago

Asus X55V customer review
Back in the days the Asus X55V was a decent laptop
If you remember, about 6 years ago we made a full customer review of the Asus X55V laptop. It happened to be a reliable computer with adequate computing power from Intel's Core i3 processor.

Since then we haven't spoken anything in particular about the X55V laptop so here are some top pros and cons taken from customers' feedback:
Asus X55V Pros
  • Cheap
  • Good hardware for the money - Intel processors and big HDD
  • Nice amount of ports

Asus X55V Cons
  • Average build quality
  • Mediocre display
  • Keyboard feels kind of cheap
  • Quite big

Back in the time when we first reviewed the Asus X55V I remember I didn't like the HD display a lot. Also the form factor - felt really big, even though I was aware that this is 15.6-inch laptop.

As for the comfort of the keyboard I would definitely recommend you to check one of the most comfortable and yet reliable keyboards we have ever tested - Dell Latitude E7240 keyboard.

Software
First the X55V came with Windows 8 operating system which I wouldn't consider an advantage. I am not sure about its latest versions, might be upgraded to a 10. Currently we are using mostly Windows 7 and Windows 10 machines and honestly the 7 is the most stable OS we worked with.

Price
Probably one can buy the Asus X55V laptop second hand for under $200. If you found one, please check its components, especially files stored on the hard drive since it could be damaged due to some drops and sever shocks.

Other thoughts
You are probably asking yourselves "why are we even mentioning such old machine". Well, we have respect for old computers to say the least so we love to talk and share information about them.

The slightly newer version - the X55VD


If you have any comments about the Asus X55V laptop computer, please feel free to share them in the comment form. Also, if you need any drivers or software about it, we will love to help you with some info.

Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A Full HD LED TV review

By
Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A Full HD LED TV price, specs and review Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A  Full HD LED TV Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A review - today at our consumer blog we are going to take a look at one of the latest 42-inch Sony Full HD TVs which offers great picture quality and will suit best everyone who needs an excellent home cinema experience without 3D effects. Sony Bravia KDL-42W650 is still not very popular around the world and the reason for that is not the lack of quality or functions which this TV is fully packed with but because of the fact that the  KDL-42W650/ KDL-42W650A is mostly going to be sold in Eastern Europe and some parts of Asia. Of course you can find this TV in other countries as well but it is still not presented in huge markets like UK and USA.

By

This is my very first look at the Gen 3, and I wanted to share my initial feedback on what’s improved and what hasn’t. The E16 Gen 3 I’m reviewing here is equipped with the Intel Core Ultra 5 processor, shared Intel graphics, and 32GB of RAM.
