![]() Powered by a 2-GHz Intel Core i3-4005U processor with 6GB RAM, Asus' notebook handled all the multitasking I could throw at it. The notebook's touchpad was responsive enough, but much like the rest of the X555LA, felt hollow when I pressed down on the pad. Its plastic wrist-rests, though, did not keep me comfortable over time. I averaged a fairly quick 63 words per minute with 98 percent accuracy, thanks to its keys having a near-ideal 1.55 millimeter travel. The bass on Charli XCX's "Break the Rules" was sturdy, while the highs on Kool & the Gang's "Summer Madness" were crisp and precise.Įven though the shell and deck of the X555LA didn't feel great, its springy keys made for great typing. ![]() The speakers on the X555LA's underside may be small, but they produce a lot of volume. The Inspiis slightly brighter (167 nits), but the Lenovo G50-45 hit a considerably higher 238 nits. The nit reading of 160 nits is below the 192 average for budget laptops. The X555LA's display isn't very bright, either. The displays on both Aspire E5 and the Lenovo G50-45 made it easy to read smaller text in the clip's background signage, while the X555LA could not. Unfortunately, Asus' display is not as sharp as some of the others in its price range. Watching the American Ultra trailer, the X555LA showed Jesse Eisenberg's skin accurately, unlike the Dell Inspiron 15 5000, which gave him a blue hue.
