Asus 1008HA

As much as I would like to talk about the features of this super slim netbook, all I can say is that it actually carries basically everthing the Eee PC 1005 HA carries.

So why the Asus Eee PC 1008HA Seashell?

So why make this new one?

Well, its the even thinner build. They prevous Eee PC was a wee bit too thick (as what some reviews mentioned themselves). This is because of the 6 cell Li-ion battery. Now they have the polumer battery which makes it even thinner. But this thinner feature compromises the initial battery life which is now about 5-6 hrs. Ouch. But it did try to cover all those “awkward” ports to make it an even more classy look. The only orifice you can see is the vent.

So I won’t delve much into the features, you can check out the 1005HA which is hardly different from the 1008HA.

And even if you do need your charger, you won’t worry beause its pretty small itself.

Battery

Yep, its got an amazing 10.5 hours battery life, but in reality since I ‘ve personally used this myself, its actually 8 hours. But hey, it’s still a very impressive time. I get impressed when I can still use the Eee PC for 1hour ++ after it has only 22% life left. This is attributed to the Hybrid engine and the 6 cell battery. Great Job Asus!

Sleek Design

This cool netbook can get you people’s attention. Derivng its design from the seashell, its nice thin look, with that cool shiny shell, it gives you a sense of high class look. People complain about fingerprint problems which is true. But another highlight of this netbook is the keyboard More »
