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

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

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~~ biggrin.gif

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

Yeap, Asus N53SN hasn't arrive yet  nod.gif
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

Sandy Bridge is a code name for the 2nd generation Core i processors: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Bridge

Well, details from the website is not very accurate and not up-to-date, thus unreliable  nod.gif
As for Sandy Bridge, do refer to the links already indicated to you, there's even a specific thread made for it  nod.gif
*
Ohh~~! based on the link u gave me..means the legendary N53SN will begin shipping as soon as the Sandy Bridge issue have been solved?? drool.gif

Yeah, it sure is a long wait... I'm still waiting for N43  cry.gif
Anyway, I think its best not to jump into the ship so fast... at least not yet since we cannot 100% confirm that these N53 were "fixed" one or not... I'm worried will encounter some problems if they don't have those certified stickers.  hmm.gif

Iam pretty sure they will have it tongue.gif

btw..which laptop do u prefer?? the N53SN or the N43?? wink.gif

Definitely the N43... I used to own a 15.6 inched Qosmio F60 and it was way too bulky and heavy for my everyday usage... haha...
I'm hoping we'll see some better variants of the N43....  nod.gif

Oww~ can you tell me the specs of the N43?? and wad model is it? rclxms.gif

the GPU in dv6 scored higher points in benchmark compared to GT550M in N53SN, not sure about real-life performances though..
