ASUS Eee PC 1015b Battery AL31-1015 review

The Asus Eee PC 1015b uses one of AMD’s latest creations, the C-30 processor. Technically, this is an "Accelerated Processing Unit" (APU) which combines a traditional CPU and graphics processing unit (GPU) on a single chip. The C-30 features integrated AMD Radeon graphics and is rated for very low power consumption. The C-30 has just one processing core, which is not promising, and having just 1GB of RAM will also hurt performance. Windows 7 Starter is a limited functionality version of Windows 7; even at this price, ASUS should have used Home Premium or increased the price accordingly to include it.

The Asus Eee PC 1015b has a powerful 56Wh battery. During our standard battery rundown test (Windows 7 Balanced power profile active, 70% screen brightness, wireless active, and refreshing a web page every 60 seconds), the 1015b lasted eight hours before hitting the 10% warning. This is a very good time for a netbook. It is on-par with competing netbooks such as the Dell Latitude 2120.
