 Asus-Eee-PC-1201N ASUS Eee PC 1201N comes loaded with NVIDIA’s ION and Intel’s dual-core Atom. It is hard to categorize the device as a netbook because it is too fast when operating as well as it is not a CULV notebook because it is not enough powerful.

The gadget is equipped with the 12.1 inch screen that is good and convenient when browsing the web, viewing HD movies or even editing photos. Due to LED-backlighting and bright surface the ASUS Eee PC 1201N performs excellent color and contrast. But in case you bow the screen the colors become gloomy.

The speakers of the device produce tinny sounds. It has a small hint of midrange but it is enough if you want to listen to the music or view a clip from YouTube. Some problems may occur in case the system is on your bed. But still if you want to listen to the music or watch films on this system it is better to use headphones.

It is very comfortable when typing on the 1201N’s keyboard. But still it has a learning curve, as the size of the keyboard is smaller if compare with usual sized notebooks. Also it has a different location of the key “shift” that is on the right side. It will need some time to get used to the placement of the keyboard.

The ASUS Eee PC 1201N features the touchpad that is responsible for great sensitivity and speed. The device provides two-finger scrolling, three-finger flick, pinch zoom and also rotating. Furthermore, it boats three USB ports, LAN, HDMI-out, VGA, as well as audio jacks. You can also find a SDHC-card slot that help expand internal memory. But still there is a drawback, i.e. the AC adapter plug, if compare it with other devices, it is weaker and smaller.

Usually the laptop doesn’t have a strictly constant-current charge monitoring device.
