Manual of product N551JM
Editorial note
The Asus N551JM stands out for its impressive performance, thanks to its Intel® Core™ i7-4710HQ processor that can reach a Turbo frequency of 3.5 GHz. This power ensures smooth and efficient use, even for demanding tasks. The 15.6-inch Full HD screen, with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, offers exceptional display quality, ideal for watching videos and working on multimedia projects. Additionally, the stereo audio system, designed by Bang & Olufsen, provides an immersive high-quality sound experience. However, there are a few drawbacks to consider. The weight of 2700 g can make transport less convenient, especially for users looking for a lightweight laptop. Furthermore, the lack of USB 2.0 ports and Thunderbolt ports limits connectivity, which can pose problems for those needing to connect multiple devices. The battery life, which is not specified, also raises questions about the duration of use without recharging, particularly for users who travel frequently. In terms of value for money, the Asus N551JM offers a good combination of features with 8 GB of DDR3L-SDRAM and 1000 GB of storage. However, the maximum internal memory capacity of 16 GB may prove insufficient for some users with intensive processing or multitasking needs. The absence of a numeric keypad and an optimized key layout may also make data entry less comfortable. Finally, the Windows 8.1 operating system may seem outdated and require an upgrade, which could disappoint some users. Overall, the Asus N551JM is a solid choice for those seeking a high-performance laptop, but it is important to consider its limitations in terms of portability and connectivity.Score details
