Express 2 – Asus K52Jr Laptop Unboxing: Tech Conclave’s First Ever Unboxing

With the help of Tech Conclave community, I was able to buy a new and shiny Asus Core i3-powered notebook system with the tagline “The Perfect Fit for Play and Work” last April 6, 2010. This express edition episode shows our first ever Tech Conclave unboxing video: the unboxing of Asus K52Jr laptop.

If you want to know more about the laptop, here’s the official page of K52Jr notebook.

I want to thank Brad of Tech Webcast for uploading my video to YouTube. He’s from Melbourne, Australia.

Below are the specs of the model I purchased:

As you can see the specs are nice, though getting a more expensive Core i5-powered lappy offers greater value. Nevertheless, the laptop works great for video creation that we do online. I hope this will let me release more video in frequent manner! I’m still adapting the 64-bit Windows 7 and software as of the moment!

There are a lot of Core i5 Dell laptop deals now available with the release of the Sandy Bridge chipset.
