Just a heads up if you missed it:
Renowned UK tech reviews giant, Expert Reviews, has given the N53J laptop the full five stars in a recent review.
ASUS’ N-series is built with Bang and Olufsen speakers and ASUS SonicMaster technology, which the guys particularly liked:
We expected the Bang & Olufsen speakers to sound better than other laptop speakers and we weren’t disappointed. The speaker bar above the keyboard produced solid audio, with clear mid-range and high notes.
That was in addition to the meat of core hardware: Intel Core i5-460M, 4GB memory, Nvidia GeForce GT425M 1GB and Optimus Technology, all wrapped in a 15.6″ shell that includes ASUS’ own Super Hybrid Engine to further push performance and battery life where necessary.
Right now you can also get 100 free song downloads with the N53, so it further sweetens the deal on an already very affordable (for the included tech!) £750 notebook.

Nick Holland – Portability and PC gaming are essential to Nick’s life. He’s enjoyed the latter since a very young age – eschewing consoles for customizability of a PC (with the finest backbones like the Asus P3B-F and A7V133) and the feel of a keyboard and mouse. As soon as he could afford a notebook he got one and things have rolled on from there into sleek DTRs (desktop replacements) netbooks, smartphones and he’s already eyeing up the latest tablets while trying to think up an excuse to own one. After writing about all things tech for several years it is only natural he sought to join the already awesome TiS team.
