The extremely stylish and powerful from Asus is a must for any Lamborghini enthusiast or simply anyone who love the look and the performance of the VX2.
Is the Lambo VX2 all looks and no power? TrustedReviews takes a look at the under the hood and say, opening up the lid reveals a impressive widescreen 15.4in display featuring Asus’ Clear Shine technology - basically a high contrast and brightness coating, that certainly makes Windows Vista Ultimate look the part. Blues look particularly good and video was smooth. Viewing angle was pretty good too - there’s some colour shift and its better when from the sides, than it is horizontally, but it’s not nearly as extreme as some displays.
Fixed storage is provided by a Hitachi TravelStar - a 5,400rpm model with a 160GB capacity - notebook drives are starting to get pretty capacious. The star of the show though is the Intel Core 2 Duo T7400. This mobile processor operates at 2.16GHz and boasts 4MB of Level 2 cache. When it’s going full pelt a fair amount of heat is chucked out via the port on the right hand side, but you can switch to cooler running power profiles.
The VX2 is without question a very cool notebook to look at and to use and sets itself apart from the crowd. What’s nice is that it does more than beat Sony at its own game - it actually offers something a bit different and is in a sense more exclusive.
The screen saver is naturally enough cool shadowed image of a Gallardo accompanied by roaring 5 litre V10 rumble sounds, which is either very cool is supremely embarrassing but that’s the thing with a notebook like this - it polarises opinion. In our book its a refreshing change and that’s reason enough to like it.
You’ll either love or hate the look of the Asus Lamborghini VX2 but there’s no denying the quality of its build or the strength of its components. It’s not the fastest thing around for gaming but for general use and casual gaming this is a serious looking and great performing piece of kit.
