The Asus Eee PC 1002HA is powered by a 1.6GHz N270 Atom CPU, boasts 1GB of RAM and has a 160GB hard drive. However, this feature set and lightweight netbook form factor come at a price: battery life. The Asus Eee PC 1002HA measures 264×181x276mm and weighs 1.2kg, but has only a two-cell 4200mAh battery.

The Asus EEE PC 1002HA sports a stylish and sleek design, nicely improved over the slightly bulky design of the Asus EEE PC 1000. It is much slimmer than the Asus EEE PC 1000H, just about 1.1 cm in thickness. At dimensions of 10.4 x 7.1 x 1.1 inches and a weight of just 2.6 lbs, it is more in line with the fashion conscious Asus EEE PC S101, than the consumer oriented EEE PC 1000H. It is amongst the slimmest and lightest in 10 inch netbooks and very portable. Coming back to the design, the EEE PC 1002HA sports a brushed aluminium lid and looks quite sleek. Composed mainly of aluminium and plastic, it has nice overall build quality and feels quite sturdy. It is one of the best looking netbooks in my opinion and sports a simple, non flashy, yet stylish look. The left side sports 2 USB ports, the right has one more USB port with the microphone and headphone jacks. The back of the notebook hosts the VGA out, Ethernet port and the 4 in 1 card reader.
The Asus EEE PC 1002HA is a very nice netbook with a nice stylish design, great performance and comes at a reasonable price of around $500. It is a good option but we would rather choose the Samsung NC10, mainly due to its superb battery life with same performance at the same price level. This is about Php 26,000, more with add-ons and upgrades.
