The latest U Series notebooks from ASUS are thin and lightweight and packed with the Intel ULV processors and Core2 Duo processors. Promising better overall performance, this next generation processor offers power-optimized mobile processing, enhanced to handle today’s demanding software applications.
For multimedia fans, the U Series also offers crisp and vibrant images with its energy efficient 16:9 LED-backlit display, powered by a NVIDIA GeForce G 105M which offers good graphics, clarity and effortless mobility. Also, the U Series is equipped with Altec Lansing speakers featuring SRS Premium Sound for exceptional audio reproduction akin to a home theater system. The U Series is equipped with AI Light sensor technology which adjusts
the brightness of the screen, as well as the backlighting of both the
illuminated keyboard and interactive touchpad, to ensure visual comfort
and ease of use.
To top it all off, the U/UX series also incorporates Express Gate which allows users access to a host of commonly used applications such as instant messaging clients and a multimedia manager, as well as the Internet in 8 seconds.
