[Vuhelper]

Redesigned U46/U56 notebooks are under an inch thick, brandishing highly attractive color schemes. Despite their ultra-slim build, they utilize the latest Intel® standard voltage CPUs up to 2nd generation Core™ i5. Powerful graphics join extended battery life, USB 3.0 and fast USB Charger+ device charging for complete computing that puts carefree usage and enjoyment first on both the 14” U46 and 15” U56.
Thin and light

At under an inch thick, the new notebooks bring highly artistic designs and the finest materials, including durable spun aluminum covers, brushed champagne-colored metal on U46 models, and a unique blue color scheme on the U56E. Tailored to everyone from travelers to business people, the U46 and U56 feature a hinge-forward design for wider viewing angles to accommodate diverse situations, even in very tight quarters. The U46 uses the thinnest 14” notebook panel currently available, measuring a mere 5.5mm. U46 notebooks feature a slim bezel around the screen, reducing weight, improving portability, conserving material and enhancing viewing experiences.
Superb performance and battery life

The new U46 and U56 employ 2nd generation standard voltage Intel® Core™ processors to expedite multitasking and improve multimedia. Discrete NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 540M graphics processors with 1GB of GDDR3 video memory (on the U46SV model) upscale visuals and make detailed gaming possible. While powerful, U46/U56 notebooks maintain a highly energy-efficient stance, conserving battery life and extending it up to ten hours on a single charge. All-day computing without having to rely on wall sockets and cumbersome adapters becomes a reality.
Made with USB 3.0
