3 out of 5 stars   Wonderfull machine
By Jerry on July 23, 2015
Review submitted for Asus Q501LA-BBI5T03 15.6" (1920x1080) IPS Touch Screen Intel Core i5-4200U notebook (ASQ501LABBI5T03)
Pros: This is one outstanding machine but it died at ten months of age. It is now at ASUS for repair, which, if it needs a motherboard, will cost in excess of $250. It boots to the BIOS but will not go into Windows. I do computer repair so I know it needs of parts. Prior to the failure I would have rated it at +10. The IPS screen, eight hour battery and 500g SSD made it a laptop that I could work with in my lap for four hours without ever feeling any heat, I replaced the 750g HD about two weeks after I got it. It was a real pleasure. It's been hard to put up with my old Compaq V6000 with short life battery and poor display.
Cons: Died at ten months.
Other Comments: Yes, buy it but spend the extra $150 for the Square Deal two year warranty. That's what I just told my sister.

Review submitted for Asus Q501LA-BBI5T03 15.6" (1920x1080) IPS Touch Screen Intel Core i5-4200U notebook (ASQ501LABBI5T03)
Pros: Great display and decent laptop while it was working.
Cons: This is not a drill. Read all reviews of motherboard failures. Used it less than 25 times during my 8 months of ownership. Then it would not boot up and MOTHERBOARD failure. Take your time and do your research. 90 day warranty.

Review submitted for Asus Q501LA-BBI5T03 15.6" (1920x1080) IPS Touch Screen Intel Core i5-4200U notebook (ASQ501LABBI5T03)
Pros: Thin, 1080p resolution, touchscreen

Review submitted for Asus Q501LA-BBI5T03 15.6" (1920x1080) IPS Touch Screen Intel Core i5-4200U notebook (ASQ501LABBI5T03)
Pros: Awesome price for these specs. Screen is gorgeous. Touchscreen is very responsive. The build quality is solid.
Cons: The track pad is too sensitive. Had to download a non asus driver by Elan to get it to function better. Widi and my tv don't get along and that was one of the bigger draws for me.

5 out of 5 stars   Asus Q501LA-BBI5T03
May 31, 2014
Review submitted for Asus Q501LA-BBI5T03 15.6" (1920x1080) IPS Touch Screen Intel Core i5-4200U notebook (ASQ501LABBI5T03)
Pros: 1. The screen. Its a full HD IPS one and is VERY nice. Movies look great. 2. It seems to be very quite. The fan in my old laptop ran almost constantly . This one hardly ever turns on and even when it does its very quite. 3. Very well made. Only the bottom of the laptop is plastic, everything else is metal and feels solid. 4.The speakers are quite decent for a laptop.
Cons: None really. It suits my requirements perfectly.
Other Comments: I bought this as a refurbished laptop. When It arrived it was well packaged. I inspected it very carefully when I first got it and I have to say it looks to be brand new. I cannot find any signs of use anywhere on the machine. I have tested the machine and everything works well. (backit keyboard, wifi, all usb ports, hdmi, RJ45 port. 3.5m headphone jack ) For US $480 it's amazing value. Cannot get anything like it in Australia ( with the IPS screen) for less than AUS $1400.

4 out of 5 stars   Mac-style PC laptop
May 30, 2014
Review submitted for Asus Q501LA-BBI5T03 15.6" (1920x1080) IPS Touch Screen Intel Core i5-4200U notebook (ASQ501LABBI5T03)
Pros: Beautiful 1080p touch screen Backlit keyboard Decent 4.5-5.5hr battery life (stream videos, watch movies, browse websites) Laptop looked "As-New" out of the box
Cons: Streaming video (HBO Go, TNT, ESPN) sometimes choppy (must put power settings on "Performance"). Not sure if it is because of i5-4200U processor, intel hd 4400 graphics card or Windows 8.1 bugs, but choppiness is infrequent and ultimately acceptable.

5 out of 5 stars   Fantastic Laptop!
By e30andrew on May 27, 2014
Review submitted for Asus Q501LA-BBI5T03 15.6" (1920x1080) IPS Touch Screen Intel Core i5-4200U notebook (ASQ501LABBI5T03)
Pros: This is a really great machine. Even refurbished, it looks brand new. It was packaged well, and I have had zero problems with it so far. The hardware in it is the latest and greatest, and even without a solid state, it is still very fast and responsive. The 1080 Touch IPS panel is gorgeous, and the keyboard feels great to type on. The PC is very light and super thin, and makes for a fantastic travel laptop. The battery lasts fairly long as well, and is just an overall really solid machine.
Cons: I have found no cons at all with this laptop.
Other Comments: Even though it does not have a dedicated graphics card, the latest Haswell integrated graphics perform really well, and really exceeded my expectations.
