QUOTE(danielkhoo83 @ Jun 26 2012, 07:44 PM) My dealer tell me to pick up my lappy tmrw! What should I aware of?? Emm i already share all my experience here, only i can say is ASUS did their N56 QC very badly( not sure next batch will same situation or not), because the seller said only 2 out of 5 1st batch stock in prefect condition.(2 touch pad problem, 1 casing small damage), the seller no choice have to send back to Asus. Btw...... asus n56 still the best in term of design(solid, aluminium casing, backlid keyboard, backlid logo on the casing) performance (no heat issue, gt650m graphic card, instant resume windows , sound system sonic master + mini subwoofer) like it so so much This post has been edited by esoon87: Jun 26 2012, 10:14 PM

To all N56VZ users:
I realise that whenever I unplug the power adapter from this laptop, the Asus Power4Gear will automatically switch from other power option back to Power4Gear Battery Saving mode.
Any idea to make the Power4Gear to remain the power option unchange whenever I umplug the power adapter?
I feel this is a bit hassle that I need to change back to the power option everytime I unplug the adapter.
Experts out there please help me on this.
TQVM....

One more cool feature I discovered is that the touchpad can act like Macbook's trackpad too! You can tap using two fingers to act like right click (this is freaking useful to me when using touchpad and one of the features I like in MBP also). Three fingers swipe up to switch windows (the windows button + tab button slide). Three fingers swipe left to BACK and swipe right to NEXT. Makes it easy to back and next in webpages. Just FYI for those that got the laptop and might be another buying point for those that still in doubt

Subwoofer is OK only. Add some boost to the song quality as you can hear the boom boom a bit. The build is great and you feel that its aluminum but its not QUOTE(PhungTM @ Jun 27 2012, 12:13 PM) Wow I did not realise that is possible  Great feature. Is it only applicable for some laptops?

I also use mouse often but sometimes want put laptop on bed so use touch pad better

I think no need cause its quite solid build but then dont purposely drop it la lol. If you meant warranty, I don't think that ASUS can extend warranty? Even if do... their after sales service sucks one..haha
