Asus / Core i5: K53E Laptop

The 2.53GHz Core i5-2520M is shaping up to be a lovely option for those who’d prefer a budget choice with plenty of horsepower for churning through HD video. With Turbo Boost technology available for busts of performance on demand, this four-thread capable CPU should be a popular configuration in the midrange class of multimedia notebooks. The benchmarking gurus over at Hot Hardware recently grabbed hold of the new silicon, and they noticed an “unmatched performance-per-watt profile for mobile CPUs,” not to mention a robust graphics core, “ridiculously low idle power consumption,” a respectable price point and plenty of power for any software title not named Crysis 2. ASUS’ 15.6-inch K53E was the test machine, and with a starting tag of just $899. That’s a reasonable price for a machine with the build quality and styling.

This 15.6 inch machine runs on a 2.53GHz Core i5-2520M processor that keeps up with all but the most demanding software, clocking in at computing speeds that were at least 15 to 25 percent higher than the previous generation of machines. That’s in part thanks to the 4GB of onboard RAM.

It also comes equipped with an Intel HD 3000 graphics card that supports full HD video playback. As far as storage space goes the machine is a bit limited, saddled by a 640GB hard drive that will suffice for all but the most demanding users.

You get all of this in a package that weighs just less than 6 pounds. Not bad, however, the real story here is the power consumption.

A third party testing group found that the Asus K53E possesses an “unmatched” performance per watt ratio and idle power consumption that’s at the top of the pile. That means your 6 cell battery will last a whole lot longer than it would in a similar machine.

You wouldn’t expect to get all of this performance in a full-sized laptop for cheap but Asus has set the price for the K53E at just under $900.

Sony Ericson Xperia Arc

Xperia™ arc takes the stunning design language that Sony Ericsson has become known for to a new level. Super slim and light, Xperia™ arc is just 8.7mm at its thinnest part and has a extra wide 4.2” multi-touch screen. Created from premium materials and with a stunning arc body, this smartphone is sleek, strong and designed to fit perfectly in the user’s hand. The best of Sony technology is inside Xperia™ arc.  The Reality Display with Mobile BRAVIA® Engine delivers exceptional visual brilliance and a crystal clear image which enhances the overall entertainment experience. Furthermore, Sony’s award-winning Exmor R™ for mobile sensor with the f/2.4 lens enables the capture of high quality, bright pictures and HD videos even in low light. All pictures and videos can be shared in HD on your living room TV via the built in HDMI-connector. 

Xperia™ arc will launch on the latest version of the Android™ platform providing access to Google Mobile Services and the myriad of applications available on the Android market. Xperia™ smartphones add best in class entertainment on top of smartphone fundamentals such as apps, maps, email and fast Internet to create the most entertaining smartphone experience.

The Xperia Arc runs on a 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8255 processor coupled with snappy Adreno 205 graphics components to make it a nimble little thing. Somehow Ericson managed cram 512MB of RAM in there too (which is about 400MD more than my first PC had). There’s also 8GB of handy storage via the MicroSD slot for all your favorite music and videos.
Functionally the phone sports a 8 mega pixel camera which works amazingly well for shooting detailed stills and even well-formed video. The 1500mAh “middle-of-the-road” battery isn’t exactly earth-shattering but it will keep you running for a few hours without having to carry a booster in your pocket (you hear me Thunderbolt?)
Unfortunately, the screen leaves a bit to be desired. It’s a 4.2 inch 854 X 480 affair that’s marginally acceptable in this day and age. That makes it the company’s largest but not brightest. The colors in this thing are pretty bland and the viewing angles are so narrow that it’s like you’re back in 2001.
As far as pricing, the off-contract price is right around $600. That’ll likely be cut in half with a contract though so don’t let it scare you away.
