Asus W5F Core Duo Notebook Review

TrustedReviews looks at the Asus W5F, and Intel Core Duo powered notebook with a 12.1 inch screen and a webcam.

The immediate comment our photographer made when he first saw the Asus W5F was, “is it for girls?” He has a point. The W5F is small, neatly formed and clad in iPod white, enhanced with some rather fetching blue lights. It’s cool, but looks wise it’s a world away from a masculine ThinkPad.

However, it would be unwise to dismiss the W5F merely as a style affectation. With a 2GHz Intel Core Duo CPU there’s no doubt that this notebook punches above its fairly modest 1.6Kg weight. This notebook is currently available with Intel Core Duo T2300 and T2400 CPUs but this version featuring the 2GHz T2500 will be available from June. The suggested price will be around £1,399 but actual online prices are likely to be lower.

In the end the Asus W5F earns itself a rating of 8 out of 10, and it gets that in every one of TrustedReviews categories.
