The N55S is constructed of plastic and reasonably strong plastic at that; the palm rest barely flexes when pressed down upon. I'm greatly appreciative that,ASUS used anti-glare plastic instead of glossy plastic, which is all too common on consumer notebooks. Chassis flex is average for a consumer notebook;nothing alarming, however. Fit and finish is good; there are no uneven gaps between parts or sharp edges.The N55S has an average selection of ports for a multimedia notebook although it is good to see two USB 3.0 SuperSpeed ports. It lacks eSATA, an ExpressCard expansion slot, and DisplayPort. The absence of those ports might better.
The exterior is an aesthetically pleasing mix of black and silver. The lid is a glossy black which looks great at first glance but quickly becomes aneyesore thanks to fingerprints. I like the silver trim piece going around the lid and the brushed aluminum piece right below the screen they give thenotebook that extra high-end look.The display's picture quality is above average for a TN-type panel (which come on nearly all notebooks sold today). It has a slightly cold/bluish hue at default settings, which is expected given the display has LED backlighting. Contrast is good; black levels are deep and not grayish.
