personally i feel tat 3699 for sf i7 is quite expensive for better camera, i7 , and B-Ray lol...
okay.. let's talk about specifications of N45/N55
All rite.. Let's start with appearance.. There are two colours... white one and black one
We have to admit the design is elegant, almost noble. The Asus N55SF is made out of a blend of materials such as hard plastic, aluminium and rubber. The black glossy plastic is proved to be too dust and fingerprint friendly. Opening the lid reveals the full-sized keyboard. At first glance it may look like aluminium but the keys are made of plastic and painted with a special coat that should last long enough. You’ll find aluminium just about the keyboard where the speakers are placed. The perforated aluminium grill looks good. The power button is now a part of the keyboard and that took a while to get used to. We also had to get used with the multimedia keys placed on the first left column. If you get past these details the keyboard is really good. We didn’t experience any typing errors and the writing was smooth.
The rubber materials have a pleasant feeling but you’re going to clean the dust and fingerprints from time to time. As you can see it looks fantastic when it’s clean.
The white one really awesome...
(but hard to take care of it of course)

The side view
The most interesting port is (of course) the yellow one which connects the external subwoofer to the laptop. The first time we saw the subwoofer we didn’t take it too seriously. It was made out of hard plastic and it was light, not at all what we expected. However we were amazed by the sound quality when we fired up a video. Don’t get us wrong: it will not replace your Hi-Fi audio system but for a 2.1 audio laptop the sound was amazing. In terms of laptop audio quality it comes second after the much appreciated Asus NX90.
There are some photos for the subwoofer as well as the yellow port...
What we did like:
build quality
good value for money ( i dont agree )
full-sized keyboard
big palm-rest
audio quality: Bang & Olufsen ICEpower and SonicMaster technology
What we did not like:
GT555M type B2 Instead of B1 (what a cut down to 128bit)
glossy lid
heavy for a laptop its size
again.. glossy and glossy and glossy... lol....
It’s just a matter of taste!!!
And then to speakers...
SonicMaster is a standard that defines audio specifications based on usage scenarios. There are three different levels, with the lowest guaranteeing users clear voice and speech — this is critical in business applications. The highest level resembles the quality of a high-end audio system, with extremely faithful music reproduction. Users can choose quality levels based on need.
In addition to these objective quality levels, we also have subjective specifications, which relate to how people feel about good audio. For example, many people feel live performances sound better than recordings, and that loud volume is important in noisy environments. Some people prefer vocals in pop music and movies, and most are uncomfortable with noise. SonicMaster standards cover the entire audio system of a laptop, including the line-out and headphone sockets. Users who choose to listen with headphones or an external speaker system will still benefit from the difference in sound quality. ASUS has developed a platform that allows all audio applications to achieve optimum performance. This means SonicMaster doesn’t focus on boosting only certain aspects of audio, instead it reproduces all sound faithfully..... =) and also it comes with asus subwoofer....
" Bundled SonicMaster subwoofer "
In addition to the already spectacular precision of SonicMaster audio, ASUS is offering an external subwoofer to increase low-note performance and result in even more impactful output. It enables a wider sound range, providing listeners with an even richer bass experience.

oh yar... let me share some details on the GPU, GT555M...
Basically, GT555M have few versions... N45/N55 are using The GT555M version B2 with DDR3 128 bit... 
NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M
The NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M is a fast middle class graphics card for laptops. It is based on the same GF106 core as the GeForce GT 445M but offers slightly higher clock rates and support for DDR3 running at 900 MHz. The other features like PureVideo HD (VP4), 3DVision, HD Audio support, ... are identical to the GT445M. The chip can be used with DDR3 or GDDR5 graphics memory. Depending on the configuration, the performance can differ significantly.

NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M "B1"

GPU-Z for VB1
NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M "B2"
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Summary from above is, GT555M A version is the GDDR5 one 96SP/128bit. while B1 is DDR3 144SP/192bit and B2 DDR3 144SP/128bit....
okay so.. let's see this
Compared to the GeForce GT 540M, the GT 555M is much more powerful. These are the benchmarks I found, all in average framerates:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Overall, it's around 40% faster. Pretty much all games are playable on medium/high settings combo at 1600x900. On the 540M, you have to go down into all medium settings at 1366x768. That, and the TDP is almost the same: 32W and 35W.
all rite.. Windex for N55sf...
Cpu-Z
GPU-Z
As you can see in GPU-Z, it's 144SP/128 bit lol.. =x
Asus has registered significant progress with its cooling technology and the N55SF temperatures were satisfying
Battery time was impressive although the N55SF is a multimedia laptop. Running in Classic mode it achieved 1.5 hours and under the Reader setting it passed the 3 hours barrier. The 6-cell battery copes well with a 15.6-inch display, a subwoofer and the powerful Nvidia graphics.
Battery Test Results!
around 3Hr 15min with 70% screen brightness, 60% audio volume(listening song with subwoofer) + Online FB, lowyat +taobao etc.
