Iam gettin this laptop soon..Anyone already own this laptop??? izzit good??

I doubt anyone will have it yet since it never really did reach here in the 1st place...
Anyway, here's a relevant review which you may find useful: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Asus-N...ok.43709.0.html

Do you think i should really get it?

yes u shud get it...i blif it is a good choice

Ermmm..i heard there is a problem with the intel core i7 for this model???

the problem is sandy bridge chipset...which most 2nd gen laptop oso gt this problem de...but as soon as dey fix it,it wont b a problem...i blif dey only will release this laptop after dey fix the sandy bridge chipset problem...correct me if im wrong..

Usage? Budget?
The only thing holding me back from getting the N53 is the size haha... too big and heavy
And because of the relatively larger size, the keyboard on the N53 is weaker than that of the N43

do you have any idea wen will this be fixed???

P.S wad is sandy bridge har?

if nt mistaken the weight is 2.70kg...but from wat i see in the pics...the keyboard doesnt seem different de?

I dont mind about the keyboard..As long as it serve me while in gaming and working..Den i will consider it a good Lappy~~

so...do u think it is good?? when will it be in the stores??

i oso nt quite sure...u need to seek answer from other forummers...but from what i know is sandy bridge is a chipset..made by intel

i heard there is a issue with the intel core i7 2nd generation...the shopkeeper told me to wait for a few month to buy tat lappy....

yea lo...wait awhile la...no harm wud...u need a laptop very urgent merh??this issue is applied to all intel core i7 2nd gen laptops...but from what i heard dey will fix the problem very soon lerh...y dowan wait?

Let me tell u a story...i bought Acer laptop 5750G during the earlier month of january...den the i7 issue...so i sent it to the shop to be repaired for 3 weeks baru they say this laptop haf to be sent to Acer for repairs...DEN acer say this laptop got prob..den the shopkeeper refund me money.. and now i trying to find laptop..wen i heard tat ASUS N53SN is a good laptop, i go ask the shop keeper..he said mus wait till i7 is safe..

I Havent been plying gamez since last january Chinese New year...the computer i currently using cant support games .. so, i nid it veri badly now

5750g de issue is same with n53sn de lo...my personal opinion is wait la...if u really cant wait..den choose another laptop...cuz i blif n53sn haven arrive in msia anyway

Har?! i saw in the Malaysia Asus website got worr....

oh? sorry if i made a mistake dere..den u try find seller lur...

Yeap, Asus N53SN hasn't arrive yet
And yes, all those laptops equipped with Sandy Bridge which was sold (Acer, HP, Lenovo etc) before the chipset issue was discovered are affected...
The new batches of Asus SB laptops will be free from those defects though, just be on a look out for the Certified Sticker http://www.asus.com/News.aspx?N_ID=Bdmf9rXuqU29SRsi

But in the Malaysia Asus list N53SN in the product list
http://my.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=x8kw5iLRkgwTkczK

P.S. what is actually the meaning of Sandy Bridge?

Well, details from the website is not very accurate and not up-to-date, thus unreliable
As for Sandy Bridge, do refer to the links already indicated to you, there's even a specific thread made for it
