If the Asus Lamborghini VX6 is beyond your budget, Asus offers a two more netbooks with a budget that’s up our alley — the Eee PC 1215N and 1215T — both of which are upgrades to the 1201N and 1201T.
Like it’s predecessor, the Asus Eee PC 1215T is powered by an AMD processor but unlike the old ones which are glossy, this model already has a matte finish both on the lid and the palm rest.
Asus Eee PC 1215T specs:
12.1″ display @ 1366×768 pixels
AMD Athlon II Neo K125 @ 1.7GHz
ATI Radeon HD 4225
2GB DDR2 RAM
250GB HDD
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Bluetooth 3.0 (optional)
HDMI port
2 x USB 3.0, 1 x USB 2.0 ports
SD/MMC card reader
0.3MP webcam
6-cell 5200mAh battery
The Eee PC 1215T can be bought without an OS and will most likely be within the same price range as the old 1201T (Php21k – Php23k).
The single core Athlon II Neo K125 got a sub-score of 3.6 while the whole system got a base score of 3.0 from the graphics.
The other model, the Eee PC 1215N, comes with the new dual-core Intel Atom D525 running at 1.8GHz. The model also comes in two-toned silver and black brushed-metal finish.
Asus Eee PC 1215N specs:
12.1″ display @ 1366×768 pixels
Intel Atom D525 @ 1.8GHz (dual-core)
NVidia Ion 2
2GB DDR3 RAM
250GB/320GB HDD
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Bluetooth 3.0 + HS
HDMI port
2 x USB 3.0, 1 x USB 2.0 ports
SD/MMC card reader
6-cell 5200mAh battery
Windows 7
The Eee PC 1215N is basically the regular version of the luxury model Asus Lamborghini VX6 we featured earlier.
We also got a screenshot of the Windows Experience Index of the unit. The dual-core CPU got only 3.5 sub-score which is a little intriguing considering the higher clock speed of the Atom processor (a Pentium Dual Core 1.3GHz SU4100 and Core 2 Duo SU7300 both score 4.0 on WEI).
The suggested retail price is not yet final but if we base it on the 1201N, it will be around Php27k once it comes out in stores.
Update: Asus announced that these units will be available by October. The 1215N will have a price of Php28,999 while the 1215T will cost Php23,999.

We got a 1215T and we are having problems playing 1080P mkv files despite installation of K-lite codec pack. Now finding ways to solve this.
Just got a 1215T from Accent Micro (SM Pampanga Branch) for my wife last Saturday. The price was Php21,999. I think the performance is quite alright. I even managed to create a 6 minute 720p movie using Windows Movie Maker (the one from Windows Live Essentials).
I must say that I am quite amazed as to how this unit performs. It’s way better than your average netbook. Take that from someone who has experienced using a Lenovo S10 and two other MSI netbooks.

Hi Bro’s! I buy this 1215T Silver yesterday but the one i brought was an AMD V105 running only @ (1.2GHz) and not the K125 (1.7GHz) version, in Alabang for 16K only. I installed Windows 7 ultimate and tried to play video in 1080P & 720P HD resolution and it was great. I am working to install additional OS the Ubuntu for this one.
@james. Im buying the same this coming days. But I want to know if it runs smoothly in the net, primarily use for facebook games & some word documents.
Guys, where can I buy the asus 1215N? Been looking already for quite sometime but had no luck on getting one.
