Asus Zenbook UX21



Asus Philippines has announced the official pricing for the 11.6-inch Asus Zenbook UX21 ultrabook. Only one configuration for the Asus UX21 will be offered in the Philippines. The UX21 is priced at Php53,995. 

Asus Zenbook UX21 specifications:

Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
 11.6-inch display (1366×768 pixel resolution)
Intel Core i5 2467M (3M cache. 1.60 GHz)
Intel HD Graphics 3000
4GB DDR3 RAM
128GB SSD
0.3MP camera
1 x USB 3.0 port, 1 x USB 2.0 port,
1 x micro-HDMI port, 1 x mini-VGA port
Bluetooth 4.0
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Bang and Olufsen ICEpower & ASUS SonicMaster Tech Audio
11.7 x 7.7 x 0.11-0.67-inch dimension
2.43 pounds
5 hours battery life

Specifications as compared to the 11-inch MacBook Air. Compared to the 11.6-inch MacBook Air, the Asus UX21 is a tad bit thinner and lighter, but essentially has the same specifications as a the 11.6-inch MacBook Air with 128GB of storage. Since the internals of both machines are made by Intel, it is really no surprise that they carry nearly the same hardware.

The main differences are that with the UX21  you get a mini-HDMI port instead of a Mini Display Port on the MacBook Air, USB 3.0 instead of Thunderbolt and Windows instead of Mac OSX. I would say the UX21 is the more relevant machine to most users as HDMI and USB 3.0 are more useful than a MDP and Thunderbolt. The operating system is a matter of personal preference.

The UX21 also does not have a back lit keyboard, but does give you nice aluminum keys which should hold up better to wear and tear than Apple's keyboards. You can get keyboard protector for your Mac, but you would be compromising ventilation. The UX21 also sports better speakers and audio.

Price. At Php53,995 is Php5,995 cheaper than the similarly equipped 11.6-inch MacBook Air. The UX21 also comes with a free sleeve, maybe another Php800 in value. The entry level 11.6-inch MacBook Air is actually price cheaper, but it comes with a smaller 64GD SSD drive for storage and 2GB of RAM.

All in all, the UX21 is a better bang for the buck option than the 11.6-inch MacBook Air offerings, with one caveat, the track pad issue below. Still the UX21 is not cheap, and I do not see it being a big seller in the Philippines.

Others. Every review of the Asus UX21, reports a glitch with the track pad which leaves it overly sensitive. Before buying one, make sure this glitch has been resolved.

Another Apple Siri versus Android Speaktoit showdown, this time from the UK

Virtual Assistants are all the rage these days with all the media attention around Apple and Siri. I myself, was not as excited since I have been using Vlingo as a Virtual Assistant, but really do not use it much. Vlingo works fine, I guess I am not the type who like to speak out commands. But, than again I am a bit of an old bloke used to doing things the old way.

Vlingo was my choice because I find to be useful in the only place a use it, while driving in a car. This is because Vlingo has a completely hands free mode. Vlingo works,  but does not have much in terms of "personality." 

After watching the nice people over at HardwareZone in Singapore test Apple's Siri versus Android Speaktoit I gave the app a try. Speaktoit does have a personality. How much personality? My wife commented, "Oh no, geeks are trying to create their own robot girl friends."

Not having an iPhone 4S to compare to Speaktoit, here instead is a YouTube video from someone who does:


Actually, based on my own use, Speaktoit does much more than this short comparison shows, but it does serve the purpose of a head-to-head.

Again, Speaktoit does seem like the better of the two apps. For places and navigation, Siri is still pretty useless outside the USA.

Sony Vaio S VPCSB26FG is now selling at 10K less (Php44,999)



The Sony Vaio S is the companies mainstream business laptop. The VPCSB26FG model is the entry level Vaio S. Featuring a 13.3-inch (1366 x 768 pixel) resolution screen and weighing in at just 3.8 pounds, it is large enough to be used as a primary laptop or for hours of long use and light enough for frequent carry. The Sony Vaio S weighs 0.8 pounds less than it primary competitor, the 13-inch Apple MacBook Pro. This puts the Vaio S in between the weight of a MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, while providing an optical drive and discrete graphics.

The other specifications are:

  • Windows 7 Home Premium with Service Pack 1 64-bit
  • Intel® Core i5-2410M Processor 2.30 GHz with Turbo Boost up to 2.90 GH
  • 4GB DDR1333 RAM
  • 500 GB SATA Hard Drive
  • DVD/RW
  • AMD Radeon HD 6470M and Intel HD Graphics 3000 with 512MB dedicated memory
  • 2 USB 2.0 and 1 USB 3.0 port
  • HDMI out
  • Card and memory stick readers
  • Fingerprint scanner 
  • Rated at up to six hours battery life




The price of the entry level Vaio S has been dropping drastically as of late. The previous model was priced Php59,999. Two months ago, the updated model was released with a faster processor and larger hard drive with the price being reduced to Php54,999. Now, the price is down to a amazing Php44,999.


At Php44,999 it is priced all 17K below the price of the entry level 13-inch MacBook Pro. The current selling price is so low it can now compete even with the Acer Aspire TimelineX 3820T. The  3820T is still 7K cheaper, but the Vaio S has the advantage of discrete AMD Radeon HD 6470M graphics, 2GB more RAM and an optical drive.


Sony Vaio S VPCSB26FG comes in four colors: Black, blue, silver and pink.

AMD Fusion E-450 ultraportable round-up

AMD Fusion. A few months ago we were lamenting the fact that despite the AMD Fusion accelerated processing unit being an excellent platform to build a low cost ultraportable laptop on, there were few options available. Now, there are a plethora of options for lightweight ultraportable AMD Fusion options in the market. 

While there are the older E-350 units still avialable, and the slower C-50 and C-60's the one we recommend the AMD Fusion E-450. The E-450 has a dual core processor clocked running at 1.65GHz which is clocked just a bit higher than 1.60GHz of the older E-350. What makes a bigger difference in performance is that the E-450 supports DDR-1333 RAM, as opposed to the DDR-1066 supported by the older E-350 chip. However, the E-450 also comes with HD6320 graphics which has the ability to turbo boost its speeds by another 20% when needed.  All in all, the E-450 is a much faster platform than the older E-350.

Samsung NP305

Basically a AMD Fusion E-450 chip is fast enough to do the tasks you would require from an ultraportable, play 1080p video smoothly and do some light 3D gaming. Eight months ago we had a choice between an HP and a Sony. Now options from Asus, Dell, Fujitsu and Samsung are available on the local market.  

Price:

  • Dell Inspiron M102z - Php21,900 with Ubuntu Linux O.S.
  • HP Pavillion DM1 - Php22,900 with Windows 7 Starter
  • Asus Eee PC 1215B - Php22,990 with Windows 7 Starter
  • Samsung Series 3 - Php23,900 with Windows 7 Home Basic

  • Fujitsu Lifebook PH512 - Php26,995 with Windows 7 Home Basic
  • Sony Vaio YB - Php26,900 with Windows 7 Starter


Prices may vary from seller to seller. I included the bundled operating system, since in considering the price differences, you should also consider whether you intend to spend a little more cash upgrading the operating system. 


Asus Eee PC 1215B

Battery:

  • Asus Eee PC 1215B - 5200 mAh
  • Dell Inspiron M102z - 5000 mAh
  • Fujitsu Lifebook PH512 - 4800 mAh

  • HP Pavillion DM1 - 4400 mAh 
  • Samsung 
    NP305
     - 4000 mAh
  • Sony Vaio YB - 3500 mAh


All these units have the same internals, so battery size is good indication of battery life. Notably, the Asus 1215B has a 12.1-inch screen while the other units have smaller 11.6-inch screens. The larger screen would consume a little more juice. The Asus, Dell and Fujitsu are you best choices for endurance.

Weight:

  • Samsung NP305 - 2.7 lbs.

  • Sony Vaio YB - 
    3.2 lbs.
  • Fujitsu Lifebook PH512 - 3.2 lbs.
  • Asus Eee PC 1215B - 3.4 lbs.
  • Dell Inspiron M102z - 3.4 lbs.
  • HP Pavillion DM1 - 3.4 lbs. 

Only the Samsung Series 3 has a significant difference in weight. It is also the smallest of the bunch being more like the size of a 10-inch notebook.

Others:

  • Asus Eee PC 1215B - It is the only one equipped with a USB 3.0 port.
  • Dell Inspiron M102z - Comes with 4GB of RAM, the others only comes with 2GB. Also comes with SRS surround sound.
  • Fujitsu Lifebook PH512 - Has a 640GB hard drive, most of the others have 500GB hard drives.
  • HP DM1 - Comes with Beats Audio
  • Sony Vaio YB - The Sony Vaio YB comes with 384MB of dedicated video memory. Only comes with a 320GB hard drive, most of the others have 500GB hard drives. 
  • Samsung NP305 - Smallest of the bunch, meaning it also has the narrowest keyboard.


Which is the best? 

Each of the offerings has its merits. The Samsung NP305 is an easy choice for those looking for the most portable of the offerings. It is much lighter (0.5 to 0.7  pounds lighter) and smaller and slimmer it is the easiest to slip into a handbag and the kindest on the shoulder.

The Asus Eee PC 1215B  is easily the most capable. It has a larger 12.1-inch screen but is not significantly heavier than the other choices, except for the Samsung. It also has the much desired USB 3.0 port which allows for data transfer 10x faster than USB 2.0, for compatible devices. 

The other options all have their strengths. The Sony Vaio YB has the fastest graphics performance  while the HP Pavillon DM1 has the best sound.  The Dell Inspiron M102z has the most RAM while the Fujitsu Lifebook PH512 has the most storage. 

In the end, there are a nice set of AMD Fusion ultraportable in the market, each with its own merits.
