ASUS U30JC-A1 13.3" Notebook (Replaced by ASUS U30JC-B1)
Puts Great Power in Your Hands
- Thin and light form factor and stylish looks for ultimate movability that’s also a clear statement of chic
- Powerful tech gets you going not only in style, but with confidence – new Intel Core i3 processors crunch even the toughest challenges with awesome speed, while dedicated NVIDIA GeForce 310M with 1GB GDDR3 does justice to the latest games and visuals
- Only thin and light notebook with optical disc drive included – no compromises when it comes to moving your data and media around!
Looks incredible
The new ASUS U30JC-A1 cuts an impressive stance of style and compact finesse, with its light aluminum alloy construction, Chiclet keyboard and oversized palm rests. It’s living proof being in the thin and light segment doesn’t have to come with the cost of suffering from uncomfortable and drab design!
And at less than 30mm thick and 2kg in weight, this tantalizing machine goes wherever you go.
Optimized Performance and Battery Life with Optimus
This notebook’s Intel Core i3 processor adds a huge increase in processing power over its ultra-low voltage cousins, including hyper-threading technology for improved multitasking. Add in the NVIDIA G310M 512MB DDR3 GPU, and you have a notebook with enough power to handle the latest games and deliver smooth high definition multimedia playback. And unlike a pure power notebook, the U30Jc won’t make users sacrifice major battery life. NVIDIA Optimus Technology instantly and seamlessly transitions between the powerful NVIDIA GeForce graphics and Intel integrated graphics to give users smart visual performance and the battery-extension benefits for longer HD enjoyment.
High Definition, LED Backlit Screen
ASUS always uses what are considered "A+ grade" screens in its notebooks. The LED screen on the U30Jc is bright, uses 20% less energy than typical CFFL LCD screens, and contains no mercury. Its 1366 x768 resolution is DVD quality on larger screens, but looks even better on a 13.3" screen .
HDMI Connectivity
HDMI connectivity gives users the flexibility to output full HD 1080P video content and 8 channel surround sound into their home theater system.
Chicklet Keyboard and Multi-Touch Trackpad
Chiclet keyboards are a pleasure to type on, with keys that are are spaced better to reduce typing mistakes. The multi-touch trackpad lets users intuitively zoom in or out of pictures or navigate up and down pages by sliding their finger.
It just keeps going
And while the new U30Jc packs more features than much larger notebooks, it operates with great thrift for super long battery life. Enjoy all-day computing with over 9 hours on a single battery charge - no need to stop and rush for a wall socket. Just sit down, load up and get working.
