Asus unveils new UL Series notebooks

- Manny N. de los Reyes -

MANILA, Philippines - Asus unveiled at the New World Hotel recently its new UL (short for UnLimited) Series of notebooks designed to provide high-speed, high-performance computing for application-intensive PC users.

The new UL Series feature the latest Intel Core2 Duo SU7300 processor for true high-speed multitasking power that makes short work of process-intensive applications.

They also use the exclusive Asus Turbo33 Technology for enhanced computing performance. A dedicated NVIDIA GeForce G 210M graphics card provides users with true-to-life images for games, videos and movies.

The Asus UL Series is capable of delivering these benefits with up to 12 hours of battery life, thanks to the exclusive ASUS GraphiX Boost, which allows users to conserve their battery power by switching between dedicated and integrated graphics.

These innovations adorn a stunningly slim chassis, measuring less than one inch in profile and tastefully decked in brushed aluminum finishing.

It provides a contemporary exterior with incredible resilience against the bumps and knocks of day-to-day use—perfect for work and play.

A flush, multi-touch touchpad delivers ease of use by allowing users to intuitively zoom in or out of pictures via pinching, or to navigate up and down pages by sliding their finger.

The ASUS UL Series is also equipped with an ergonomic “chiclet” keyboard and full-size numeric keypad, which minimizes dust accumulation and enables faster numeric input via larger key-caps.

The Turbo33 Technology boosts overall performance by 33 percent, amalgamating both hardware and software solutions to deliver smoother graphics and online streaming.

With up to a wickedly fast 8GB DDR2 memory on tap, the result is truly rapid acceleration of system processes which translate into a smoother and faster computing experience.

The UL Series is also designed to provide users with unlimited entertainment after hours. The notebooks feature a high-definition LCD screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio as well as graphics powered by a dedicated NVIDIA GeForce G 210M graphics card with 512MB VRAM.

It delivers true-to-life graphics for a myriad of entertainment purposes, from videos to movies and games.

Working in concert with the stunning visuals are two specially designed Altec Lansing speakers supported by SRS Premium Sound that provide a wider frequency range, delivering lower pitches to allow users to hear every reverberation of the drums, as well as every note in pitch perfect quality.

To provide users with longer lasting battery life for unlimited, all-day computing and entertainment, the UL Series boasts a battery lifespan of up to 12 hours.

This is attributed to an ingenious and exclusive GraphiX Boost technology, which gives users the option of switching between the dedicated NVIDIA GeForce G 210M graphics card for graphically intensive applications, and integrated graphics for optimum energy savings.

Also exclusive is the Asus Power4Gear, which facilitates the deployment and usage of power according to the users’ preferences in relation to the specific tasks that they need to perform.

Users can choose from four power profiles to suit their power needs. Power4Gear also offers the option of turning off hardware devices to conserve even more energy.
