I currently have an ASUS ZENBOOK which is a higher model of the one you are looking at. It has the same fixed battery, etc. Personally I like the ultrabook format because it is very thin and stylish. I don't miss not having a DVD drive and it even saves some weight not having it on the laptop. For times I do need an optical drive, I have an USB external CD/DVD drive.

As for leaving it plugged in the whole day, not really an issue. My zenbook is almost a year old and battery wear is still under 2%. I leave it plugged in every night and bring the ultrabook with me during the daytime. The only issue I have found is the heat when I am playing graphics heavy games. To fix that, I just use a laptop pad with fans under it when I am playing games.

yes wanted the zenbook too but price is out of my budget which is weird because my last asus laptop i bought costs around 75k, i guess with most laptops pricing around 20-30k ayoko na magspend higher than 40k, i think around 50k+ yan but man, specs rock!

gusto ko rin ng ultrabook, so i guess i will be going with the s46cm, thanks ghosthunter!

With me naman, this current ASUS ultrabook is the most expensive laptop I have bought so far at around P65K at the time of purchase. Meron konting buyer's remorse because a few months later, cheaper Asus ultrabooks came out into the market that have the same base specifications (cpu, gpu, hdd, etc) without the expensive enhancements like back-lighted keyboard, audio by "Bang & Olufsen", etc. BUT I do love the one piece milled aluminum chassis and I hope it will not show any wear marks as my laptop gets older (usually the palm area tends to have it's painted colored worn off). And at the time of purchase, this was the only lightweight ultrabook with discrete accelerated GPU. Before this, I had the Acer S3 ultrabook.

Muntik na ako kanina dun sa octagon yung nilabas nila 2 color isang gray at blue iniisip ko baka new color lang ng Asus. Nung nakita ko K450C pala yun at hindi X450C sinabi ko agad na yung X450C ang gusto ko. Parehas lang yung X450C at K450C nung nakita ko ang specs at price niya.Sabi nung sales dun yung K450C na blue aluminum daw yun nasa may keyboard kaya matingkad compared sa X450C na plastic lang daw.

OT lang:

Do you still use a desktop PC in your home? or you just use a laptop? or you have both desktop PC and laptop? what is your preference.

[NiCe2KnowU]

^both.. kahit mababa specs ng desktop ko mabilis pa din sya compare
sa laptop ko na mataas spec..
mas masarap maglaro ng game sa desktop kesa sa laptop, mas malaki pa screen
laptop naman matipid sa kuryente.

[gearspeed]

Meron kaming laptop,netbook.tablet at desktop.
Iba pa din ang desktop pc para sa akin.

been using laptops exclusively for the last 10 years. I just use one for both work and home use. I'm not a gamer so a laptop is good for me. Dont even have a tablet.

I used to have lots of desktops for multi-boxing (online mmorpg gamers will know what I mean) and I had a quadcore desktop as a file and video server as well. I also had two HTPCs (home theatre pc). I changed the server to a quadcore laptop and saved a bundle on electric bills (it was on 24x7). I also changed the two HTPCs to western digital live tv players . I still have one gaming desktop left for serious gaming. But recently I have been buying laptops with graphics power that is even more powerful than my remaining desktop. I have a laptop with a gtx 770m (sager p150) and another one with SLI 750m (lenovo y510p) Laptops rule - in particular that Lenovo sure is really nice bang for buck. Tablets and laptops are it for me from now on. No more desktops for me ever. Once this last remaining desktop outlives its graphics card and 3rd Gen i7 I am replacing it with another laptop.

My set up is 7 laptops and 1 desktop. My small kids call their friends over and have lan parties all the time. Fun to watch.

I remember way back with RED ALERT and STARCRAFT, my friends and I would have LAN parties at one of our homes. We would have to lug our full-tower RIGS and massively heavy 17 to 19 inch CRT monitors to each other's homes ... given the effort, such were only done on long weekends.

Today, just bring your current laptop with built-in gaming GPU, connect to the local WIFI and go! (ah! ... and also bring your fav mouse!)

I have both.

Mas nasanay ako sa desktop pero mukhang mas maganda na laptops ngayon. Malalakas na kasi specs nila ngayon. At portable pa.

Yung desktop pc ko naman, all-in-one na. Mga 4 years ko na ginagamit (msi ae1900 touchscreen) and maganda naman siya for office use. Downside lang yung medyo mahina specs comp sa mga desktop pcs talaga. Hindi rin masyado magastos sa kuryente all-in-one. Maganda siya kung maliit space mo at ayaw mo ng madaming separate parts.

Napansin ko lang sa laptop, REQUIRED ang magndang cooling pad kung matagal gagamitin. Yung screen din, mas maganda pa rin yung sa desktop.

[NiCe2KnowU]

i have both, DESKTOP and LAPTOP
mas prefer ko ang desktop for gaming
at laptop naman para sa browsing, documents etc..
pero wag mo hamunin laptop ko.. kayang tumapos nito
ng assassins creed 3 at Call of Duty Black ops 2 :D

Although I play games on my 13 inch laptop, I do miss having a bigger screen to view the graphics...

BTW, I use an external keyboard and mouse when I play games as I find it difficult to play well using the laptop's keyboard and trackpad.

planning to dispose na kasi my desktop and use my laptop at home. problema lang sa laptop pagnasira, parang disposable na unlike desktop na you could change individual parts inside the cpu.
