Hello,

Needed an all purpose lappy for a friend, (browsing, msoffice, movies) around 20K.

zeroed in on Asus X Series X52F-EX1408D for 19K on flipkart.

Is this the best out there (in this range)? just needed a little reassurance before jumping in :D

Thanks in advance!!

Edit:

Would like to add that, durability is something preferred, would not be upgrading anytime in the next decade!

so would be staying away from toshibas (as read online).

Help please!
 
Simply put the Asus with the Pentium P6200 is more powerful than the AMD E350. So I would suggest you go with the Asus. And HD glossy and HD glare mean one and the same - that the screen will reflect. Its not something you should be worried about, 90% of laptops sold in India are glossy and there is no much difference between the two screens as well I would say.

Go with the Asus, its significantly more capable :)
 
same query as t.c... asus seems to b the best deal out there. myself also going to buy it soon. few queries..
1. build quality

2.most imp wats the least price availbl on the laptp in market?

3.does asus provides backpack with therw lap?

ASUS X 52 F - EX 1408D

Ebay deal of the week!! @ 18500!!!

booked! :)

exactly the price i bought this machine from market.

few suggestions : add up a xtra 2 gb ddr3 ram/ costs 1000 bucks.. 2 gb is seriously low

plz donot use the touchpad driver that comes with the lap , use the microsoft driver instead
