LENOVO ThinkPad T440s X240s coming


For today's fast changing hardware industry, perhaps half a year to complete a product innovation, technological updating, this growth rate is a traditional industry can not match, the notebook has been nearly 30 years, first from 1986 built-in battery of the notebook was born in 1991 to achieve a notebook TFT color display, and then in 2003 ushered in the era Centrino notebook, and then took another 10 years to become thinner and lighter notebook, generally more than 20 years time, the speed of evolution of the notebook itself is slow and orderly, giving the impression that the lack of some real excitement.

Break this order it is precisely in the first half of last year to this year, the notebook has changed fundamentally, if ultra-pole of this is an extreme form of the notebook, then over most of the deformation is equal again defines a new way to interact notebook , the notebook has never been so able to change the road from the unrepeatable, PC industry met from tablet computers, smart phones and other terminal equipment, computing challenges alone computing performance and portability has been unable to impress consumers, so the notebook rapidly self-help, And this salvation is from the beginning of human-computer interaction.

Ultra-pole of the year become smaller, reducing the thickness of the fuselage several levels, a 13-inch notebook, if the thickness exceeds 20mm, weight higher than 1.7kg, then to today's standards will fail to pass, manufacturers are constantly breaking records, ultra-extreme miniaturization and laptops are high priority in today, under pressure, a variety of new materials have begun to be used.


Will become completely changed, and change will become uncompromisingly! Even Superman do not wear sexy red underwear on the outside, and what can not change it? But sometimes difficult not change, but to accept the changes!



LENOVO ThinkPad T440s with 3cell LENOVO ThinkPad T440s Battery throughout the A side and B side design can be regarded as extremely simple, and no lack of fashion style. It is the A side piano paint process gives a high-end elegant feel. In addition to the B side is marked with two English words that do not carefully modified and will not see the rubber pad, no other modifications. Overall to the author brings a simple but not simple feeling. Like with most 15.6 inches notebook, thanks to a larger space, so LENOVO ThinkPad T440s fully equipped with a full keyboard for notebook. This applies to most large-size notebook is nothing new things, which the keyboard C surface, it touches with other notebooks differ.


The human body is constantly evolving production work carried out, walk upright, use the tool to generate intelligence, laptops, too, although relatively short evolutionary time, but broadly similar to the process of evolution, which we will be seen as a tool for notebook to help us deal with files, surfing the Internet.


PANASONIC CF-NX2 with PANASONIC CF-VZSU75R Battery "inner chamber" to the author left the deepest feeling is that it feels like matte palm rest, the majority of notebook palm rest after prolonged use will have a significant fever phenomenon, and this design will be in a certain extent reduce the heat transfer to the palm of a hand. As for the "inner chamber" other places, the screen surface minimalist design, feel comfortable keyboard and touchpad split, gave the author left a law-abiding impression. LENOVO ThinkPad T440s as a 15.6-inch notebook, she is certainly not small. After the author's test, which is 35.04 millimeters thick at the most, to 32.55 mm at the thinnest, thickest and thinnest is not much difference.


Notebook tool properties, as well as human relations, and has not changed, the emergence of laptops, can bring to people's lives more convenient. Tools constantly updating is to fill gaps and deficiencies, is to improve and upgrade the existing tools, such replacement notebook rhythm is essentially the first 20 years of development and the same trajectory.


LENOVO ThinkPad X240s uses 4cell LENOVO ThinkPad X240s Battery and a proud fourth-generation Haswell series of top I7-4700MQ processor, 4G DDR3 memory, as well as the latest Nvidia GT 750M top game graphics, 1TB HDD mechanical hard drive. Intel's new i7-4700MQ membership refueling Haswell processor, based on a new generation of 22nm process. Uses a quad-core eight thread, three cache 6MB, original clocked at 2.4GHz, integrated graphics core HD Graphics 4600, CPU thermal design power of 47W.


Into the Internet era, the tool itself did not evolve, and people's own use of the Internet has changed. Before we go to work to walk, and with very few people are willing to go car to walk, people rely on cars to bring their own convenience, although walking is also able to the company, but apparently driving more comfortable, and the car this new tool establish a link, this link and organs of our body like the relationship between the new tool depends on the host environment changes gradually, tool properties began to degenerate, started to become viable.


PANASONIC CF-AX2 with PANASONIC CF-VZSU76R Battery has a powerful hardware configuration, whether it is office or entertainment, can meet the needs of consumers. Top processors and high-end alone significantly with, be sure to test the game. Here, the game testing begins. Responsible for the development by the CAPCOM fighting game "Street Fighter 4" (Street Fighter 4) has been sold, this will be inherited the family as traditional 2D gameplay and 3D graphics using the latest technology to a more beautiful way to reproduce original unique 2D drawing style, more brilliant action, to show the unique style of Street Fighter.


Now, we become increasingly dependent on mobile phones and tablet, just like sighted people can not do without glasses, the mobile phone and glasses have become a new person "organ", imagine that morning and found glasses find the phone, which makes you more irritable?

This organ and the role of the pacemaker is not the same, people will not lose this "organ" and death, but will create a strong psychological dependence can not extricate themselves, people fragmentation of information, increasing the demand for rich media , the information reaches the user has changed the way that people like Pavlov's dog, to indulge a collection of social network human weakness, and these addictive things, mostly detached and PC, notebook in the mobile Internet era did not evolve into "organ" because, to some extent, the morphology of the notebook itself.


LENOVO S415 with LENOVO IdeaPad S415 Battery did not use the high-resolution screen, under the premise of the same hardware configuration, in actual experience, have adopted resolution 1366 × 768 runs, compared to 1980 × 1080 resolution under operation, to smooth some of the. However, for the average consumer, this small difference can hardly feel. However, the time resolution brings delicate effect, LENOVO ThinkPad T440s who can not experience.

TOSHIBA Satellite C50Dt C50t L70 L70D L75 coming


Screen resolution is a common theme, but now it has become a major PC manufacturers promote their own products, improve their brand influence important means - laptop screen resolution is improving, and this change is forced shipments declined by , the prevalence of post-PC products competitive pressure. Smart phones are developing at an unprecedented speed, in addition to becoming more and more powerful processor and a large screen, another widely respected by consumers is always accompanied by an important element of the development of mobile, so it's even a traditional laptop fate.

Under the influence of the iPhone, a number of high-end phones in 4-5 inches already on the screen to achieve a full HD "retina" configuration, while laptops are still in the so-called "mainstream" 1366 × 768 wandering, already enjoy retina screen the exceptional experience of consumers of traditional laptops have higher requirements - phone Shangqie can reach 1920 × 1080, a larger laptop screen resolution why not do better?


For example, today I hand this station TOSHIBA Satellite L70 with 6cell 5200mAh TOSHIBA Satellite L70 Battery, its predecessor is Envy4, as has long been a hot main model, in fact, we have been very familiar with, but this TOSHIBA Satellite L70 in addition to the operating system upgrade to Windows8 , the screen is also changed to support 10-point touch IPS touchscreen. Therefore, the new model relative to the old Satellite C50t With what changes, upgrades touch how much value, undoubtedly our concerns.


Face laptop's performance in screen resolution, we will "abuse" OEM assembly plant unscrupulous, it will also appreciate the Apple Retina brought reform, not just Apple, Android camp made the same warning the traditional laptop. In order to make the display more delicate, more comprehensive, some high-end smart phones equipped with a 1920 × 1080 resolution screen, in such a small screen with a specially designed application, give us a comparable "printed paper"-like display, the phone's GPU Shangqie to smooth support such a resolution, not to mention more powerful notebook platform, which we will begin to subjectively think that some PC manufacturers to strive for greater profits and total disregard of the feelings of consumers and thus hinder the development of the whole industry.


Individual PC ushered booming ten years, we have been crazy chasing performance improvements, this year, 1.0GHz, next year 2.0GHz, 4.0GHz and then ran all the way to go, and then is multicore race. Each component constituting the PC are undergoing tremendous change, nowadays consumers pursuit of performance has been gradually to settle, will shift to experience this pursuit above.

Experience a new era for the king's concept was introduced by Apple there began. Simple, fast, comfortable, Apple's products with their own mobile phone can actually be proved not so much trouble, the notebook can be made thinner, flat visual experience can be more beautiful. The screen is a product of people's first impression, no matter how strong your performance, there is no good display effect are difficult to attract consumers. So over the past 2023 years throughout the competition indicators phone and tablet screen resolution is higher than anyone else, who's better screen material. Looks simple and crude, but it is real consumer demand.




As a result of the appearance of the touch with the same, so with TOSHIBA Satellite C50t with 6cell TOSHIBA Satellite C50t Battery basically exactly the same. The author of this is on hand with black and silver versions, workmanship is very solemn, solid. Machine with a full aluminum material to build, of course, this is consistent with the usual work of the current high-end style. Cover part of the pure black brushed metal material, in addition to no other than a TOSHIBA logo decoration, simple, solemn, reveals a trace of business atmosphere. Good texture, but there will be some cold weather feels cool. Because it is aluminum alloy, so we need not worry about the "fingerprint" issue, coupled with the use of a black color, so clean up is very convenient, even a slight stain does not seem smart.


For most of the OEM manufacturers, is to maximize profits, while keeping costs to a lower, but with lower prices, laptops have revolutionized the spread to people's lives, just like home refrigerator TV as common Sometimes the price of a laptop as a phone is not expensive. The emergence of low-cost products to the rapid expansion of consumer groups, the competition has thus become particularly intense, all manufacturers are straining out all the stops to control costs, the demand for low-resolution screens largest natural upper panel manufacturer's choice.

However, the rapid development of mobile Internet to mobile phones, tablets and other handheld devices have mushroomed rapidly growing in the possession of a certain compatibility while, ARM platform's flexibility also far superior to traditional X86 platform, and use the touch features a hint of freshness to consumers, and in screen resolution, the small size of handheld devices, large resolution of the "score" morphology and mainstream laptops in stark contrast. Affected by this, "static" in the overall decline in PC shipments, which makes the Wintel alliance and OEM manufacturers realized the crisis. Processor energy efficiency improvement, deformable mold, the touch screen to join the PC industry, etc. These are a series of measures to suppress the ARM platform, but the screen resolution has also made a proper upgrade. 2012, the market began to appear in succession on the small size large resolution of the notebook, it really brought a fine display, but this gave birth to another problem.


Judging from the parameters, TOSHIBA Satellite L70D with high capacity 10.8V 6CELL TOSHIBA Satellite L70D Battery can be said to be very standard Windows8 Ultrabook configuration: i5-3317U low voltage processor, 4G memory, 500G hard drive space, Intel HD4000 graphics card, the configuration can be said that we are seeing Most Windows8 Ultrabook is not much difference, so the gap in performance is not too much.


In the consumer PC market, almost all of the X86 platform notebooks have chosen to install Windows systems, most software developers are also developing products for Windows systems, years of development makes any "Later man" can not shake the status of the Windows ecosystem . This is a Windows system is the biggest advantage, but this is what has become its greatest burden. On Windows systems appeared at the beginning, in order to ensure the best compatibility, Microsoft has customized a series of hardware and software standards, the screen resolution to become an integral part of the standard. From the beginning of VGA, SVGA to later FHD, even WQHD, support for Windows PC screen procurement systems are an important part. However, for Windows systems, whether it can be said that the higher the resolution the better?


By CPU-Z tool to test Intel Core i5 processor's TOSHIBA Satellite C50Dt Battery basic information, this processor is based on the Ivy Bridge Core architecture, based on 22nm process technology, the initial clocked at 1.7GHz, shared L3 cache 3MB, the overall TDP 17W, showing that this ultra-pole of this power is quite low, the need to ensure a long life. While the initial processor clocked at only 1.7GHz, but has been able to meet the user's daily work and entertainment needs, and the user during the big game and other operations, the processor can automatically Turbo to 2.6GHz, in order to ensure the user experience results.


I've used a screen of 11 inches, a resolution has reached full HD quality laptop, which comes with the latest Windows 8 system, Logically speaking, such a high resolution display on the screen should be compared to other products have great advantages, but the use of the process, but it generates a large font display problems - the font is too small. Generally speaking, the higher the resolution should bring more fine display, but the 11-inch full HD screen, ultra-small font is a torment to the eyes.

In the interface area, TOSHIBA Satellite L75 with TOSHIBA Satellite L75 Battery is quite comprehensive, basically common interfaces are readily available. On the left there is an RJ-45 Ethernet port, an HDMI port, two USB2.0 interface, a multi-card reader slot. Also two working lights. A special feature is, RJ-45 network port using the drop-baffle design, in fact, this design has also been some other super pole used, for example, Dell Inspiron 14z, this advantage is even more beautiful, not because of network the left side of the mouth and damage the integrity of the interface.

DELL Latitude E3440 E3540 Coming


I believe we are very concerned about DELL Latitude E6440 cooling performance of this game, here we have the actual test. Our testing method is still at room temperature at 28 degrees Celsius, so this notebook running Furmark pager software, allowing GPU operate at a higher load, almost running at full speed. Then, after more than an hour, respectively, see this notebook's internal core temperature and body surface temperature. How to determine the thermal performance is good or bad, the maximum temperature not represent anything. Absolute temperature cooling vents is the highest, if not, that is the only show that thermal problems. When most of the heat accumulation in the cooling vents near the position, and the other parts of the temperature is not higher than 40 ℃, it can determine the cooling system design is more reasonable.

From the graph of the temperature distribution, the aircraft most calories are deposited on the heat vent position, the palm rest and keyboard area of ??the heat is not high, but also in the actual experience more appropriate comfort, so this DELL E3440 fine shield cooling system design is reasonable, thermal performance is relatively good, the interior space is large enough to provide a stronger effective heat dissipation rate. New DELL Latitude E3440 with high capacity 9cell DELL Latitude E3440 Battery is still walking the road of high cost, other brands of the same product may be priced configurations million, while the E6440 was priced at 7,000 yuan, which for the pursuit of cost to consumers very tempting. This time a very large hardware upgrade, GTX 765M significant independence impressive performance, unfortunately, does not replace the new mold.



In the hardware configuration, this got this Latitude E6440 is equipped with 22nm process technology Intel Core i7 4700MQ quad-core processor, equipped with Seagate 1000GB hard drive and 120GB solid state hard drive, as well as two high-speed 4GB DDR3 1600MHz 8GB memory capacity, graphics cards, the model comes with a processor with Intel HD 4600 Core Graphics and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 765M discrete graphics. Intel Core i7 4700MQ belongs to a new processor with four cores and Hyper-Threading technology can support up to eight threads. The processor is based on 22nm process technology, codenamed Haswell-MB, initially clocked at 2.4GHz, Core frequency to 3.4GHz, shared L3 cache of 6MB, the overall TDP of 47W.

Learn basic information about the processor, we use software CINEBENCH R10 to assess its performance, the software is capable of single-core and multi-core processor performance given visual score, Fengyun Core i7 4700MQ processor quickly completed all of the test content, and ultimately get 6253 points its single-core, multicore get 23,733 points, belonging to high-end mobile processor models. Another use of this software CINEBENCH 11.5 evaluate its performance, the software is capable of single-core and multi-core processor performance given visual score, Fengyun Core i7 4700MQ processor quickly to complete all of the contents of the tests, the final CPU obtains 6.30 pts, single core 1.49pts.

DELL Latitude E3540 has a DELL Latitude E3540 Battery and 15-inch standard game of the body shell, and the screen 15.6-inch glossy screen with a resolution of 1920 × 1080. Since it is a game of this, it is very heavy body is understandable, Latitude E6440 is not petite, solid shape honest overbearing.


Cooling air outlet side, originally thought of such a large volume will have two cooling fans, resulting in 650S we only found one body, the fan is located on the left bottom of the screen. Although only a fan, but a large area of ??the outlet alone, as well as its strong wind cooling fan, cooling effect to the final good protection.

"DmC: Devil May Cry" is the "Devil May Cry 4" after another new work, and before the biggest difference is, CAPCOM was not involved in this for the direct production, but to refer it has produced a "Sword," the studio Ninja Theory to develop, and in January 15, 2013 officially on sale. Since this as in "Black Dante," the new image was criticism and dissatisfaction global players, so the role of the image has been renovated several times to modify.

"Lost Planet 2" using CAPCOM own R & D and further strengthen the "MT-Framework 2.0" game engine, showing more detailed than its predecessor beautiful picture, in 2012, when the game has been dubbed the "hardware killer" level, the hardware requirements are relatively high. For such a game, we need to close some of the anti-aliasing. Final test results, the average number of frames is 41.8, comprehensive evaluation of the level reached a B grade, the overall performance is still very good.


The machine uses full-size keyboard, floating keycap manipulate feel good, key-way medium rebound comfortable. But unfortunately that does not use a backlight keyboard configuration, which for some gamers may be some disappointment. Although the game of this, but the machine still join in on the touchpad fingerprint reader, so it seems almost universal machine configuration. Shaft part, fine shield E6440 with DELL Latitude E6440 ATG Battery design is quite sturdy, damping, and opening and closing angles are quite good, because the screen is not sunken shaft, so the maximum open angle does not block the fuselage behind the cooling air outlet, does not affect the overall thermal performance.

DELL Latitude E5440 E5540 E6440 coming


In the era after the ThinkPad, business notebook market competition for various reasons become increasingly intense, Lenovo, HP, Dell, Sony and other major venders who turns into a moment let this market surging, compared to several other brands of products Dell's top business of the Latitude E-Family product has been relying on strong hardware configuration as well as excellent stability, scalability, and favored by business people, of which 14-inch E6430 is by virtue of solid appearance design and high stability made in order to group purchasing choice.

And most of the 2013 launch of the product, this product is also chasing the pace fought with the Intel upgrade to the new 32nm Core platform, we received this evaluation of the prototype is using the new Core i5 processor Core i5 highest performance 540M, 3GB RAM, 320GB 7200 rpm hard drive and a professional-grade NVS 3100M graphics card for business users with a very good application platform, but this product is the Latitude Z series has always been adhering to the high cost of style, so that the user's procurement costs can be greatly reduced.

E6440 with a 14-inch mold and 97Wh DELL Latitude E6440 Battery, 336x246x25-29mm body size compared to the normal 14-inch notebook is a bit bigger, but in thickness control is quite good, and the weight of 2.35kg and 2.76kg weight stand-alone travel Weight emphasizes protection for a business notebook, fairly fit to carry. Exterior styling stable atmosphere, with a good protection, hardware configuration is strong, excellent overall performance and screen performance, excellent power control, heating control overall better

From the point of view the overall appearance, E6440 overall appearance is close to Latitude E6430, but in some details of the deal is with no small change. A surface with etched and brushed metal effect processing, and before the effects of the E6430 matte surface differ, metallic-colored background with silver and white with DELL LOGO has a strong sense of fashion, and in addition, E6440 A surface no other decoration, the open matte surface and its business position are very contrast. Metal top cover for the screen provides a very good protection, we push hard in the test results using a finger is no subsidence roof, metal roof once again proved excellent protection capability, and for business users to say, excellent protection capability is exactly what they need.

Open laptop, TOSHIBA Satellite C75 with 6cell TOSHIBA Satellite C75 Battery, B and C - sides closer to the traditional design style Latitude E-Family product style, whole body with black tone, wide-brimmed design of the screen frame it appears that the body is very large. In the center of the screen frame is a high sensitivity 2.0 megapixel camera, and a microphone array were designed on both sides of the camera, array microphone pickup mouth with the camera as much as the pitch reaches 4cm, with the use of traditional mono microphone microphone pickup port position on the product are arranged in about 2-3mm camera compared to the position in such a stereo microphone pickup effect will be more outstanding
   
E6440 chose a 14.1-inch LED backlit screen 16:10, with most of the current notebook with a suction fit design compared to this E6440 still insist on the traditional lock-style closure, this approach although the opening and closing operation is relatively complicated, but the locking device to ensure the laptop will not turn on the move, so as to enhance the overall protective.


In the test, we actually tested optimized brightness 564cd/m2, and the contrast was 1344.1:1, color saturation, the test values ​​of 61.82%. From the final test results, E6440 is equipped with this LG LCD screen has good brightness and contrast, and color saturation can also be in the notebook LCD screen on the market on the middle level. So the test results indicate that E6440's screen can be better for business users, including the text, images and video playback display than similar products have better performance.

From the above test results, although NVS 3100M discrete graphics-oriented professional product, but in this part of the test results is quite satisfactory, the composite score of 5863 points and 5411 points of GPU test results indicate that this product can meet part of the mainstream gaming applications, while Core i5 540M processor is ran up to 7822 points, good results, this result indicates that the processor used in this product is for those who have high performance requirements of the processor, 3D games and applications also have a certain ability to cope, so users can purchase this product at ease with its operation of certain 3D applications.


Compared with the Latitude E6430, E5440 with 65Wh DELL Latitude E5440 Battery C-face small alterations, mainly in the right side next to the power button does not turn increase access function keys. While the keyboard is still using the traditional aspects of the structural design, button surface with a matte black brushed finish, with a relatively good feel, the input layout is also still using the pointing stick + touchpad dual input layout. E6440 touchpad area is relatively large, multi-touch feature, users can achieve multiple batter on the touch pad, zoom, rotate and scroll up and down web pages and other functions.

Comprehensive PCMark Vantage test results, with Core i5 processor + graphics card E6440 graphics processing power even in relatively strong demand for the Memories (memories), TV and Movie (video) and Gaming (games) three children are also have a good performance, which focuses on three sub-item test is that users often run home entertainment picture browsing, video encoding, decoding and gaming capabilities, and since this product uses processor performance than with higher performance graphics processing unit, So in this three strong demand GPU performance test subkey performance is relatively good, but the overall performance of the TOSHIBA Satellite C75D with TOSHIBA Satellite C75D Battery stronger, so in several other aspects of the test showed good, so buy this product users You can rest assured that their applications in all aspects of home entertainment.

In the graphic part of the test, we used the latest test software Futuremark 3DMark Vantage, which is the industry's first dedicated interfaces based on Microsoft DX10 API, Windows Vista operating system to create a comprehensive benchmarking tool that can fully play multiple cards, advantage of multi-core processors, in the current and future period of time to meet the PC gaming performance testing needs. 3DMark Vantage offers a new build of two graphics tests, two CPU test items, six characteristics of test items, and the introduction of four different levels of presets (Preset), can more accurately reflect the level of system performance. In the test, we will adjust the same system resolution 1024 × 768, using the test software provides Entry mode for testing.
   
We also used the TOPCON BM-7 spectral colorimeter E5540 screens were tested in the test DELL Latitude E5540 Battery we have chosen the right screen brightness, contrast and color saturation for testing. Brightness test, we let the monitor display full white screen on the center of the screen test, contrast test also used the same test method. Color saturation measurement to monitor when we were shown the red (R), green (G), blue (B), and then test the center of the screen color values. In the CIE color space R, G, B three points around the triangle area is the monitor can display all the color areas, the region's area and NTSC 1953 defines the scope of the RGB color space is the color saturation. sRGB standard definition of the color range of approximately 71% NTSC, which is normal CRT monitors that can be achieved.

Newest DELL Latitude Laptop and LENOVO IdeaPad U430p Touch Coming


Dell Latitude family of commercial laptops in the enterprise customers has a good reputation, but in recent years along with the notebook wantonly spread, Latitude is increasingly close to the people, from the classic D series, E series to tough, then 6430u ultra-extreme price steadily, but reliable excellent quality has never been the slightest compromise.

In order to meet SME customers, the education sector and even individual users for the pursuit of quality, Dell Vostro as the prototype, launched this Latitude 3330 ultra-thin business notebook, it is currently the lowest priced models in the Latitude series, the Dell Latitude 3330 in appearance and Vostro V131 is very similar, if not on the palm rest "LATITUDE" words, you are unlikely to associate it with the Latitude together. The machine uses silver-white metal body, with black edges and composite materials drift before the screen design, everything seemed so familiar.

Configuration, its built-in third-generation Smart Core i3 or i5 ULV dual-core processor, graphics card, support dual-channel memory, and equipped with the latest hybrid hard drive, the price for its four thousand is still very suitable The. Dell Latitude 3330 with DELL 71R31 Battery prior to the adoption of the mold, so the appearance is quite familiar. Its roof made of solid aluminum alloy to create the surface by anodic oxidation process and presents a natural silver-white, with black edges left antenna composite material edging, plain simple. The machine also follows the previous drift-screen design, not only can provide to the user a better angle of the screen, but also left plenty of space for the battery.

Inside, Latitude 3330 with a steady all-black style, with an anti-glare screen is 13.3 inches, with a full-size keyboard and a high-touch chocolate touchpad with separate buttons, in addition to any deliberate modification of the Department , simple, very practical. Latitude 3330 keycap more rounded and concave surface with a certain, more ergonomically designed finger on the above would be more comfortable. Its key process is longer, the number of grams of pressure is relatively moderate, playing word is still very comfortable, feel great.

The aircraft did not like as expanding consumer LENOVO IdeaPad U430p touchpad area with LENOVO IdeaPad U430p Battery, but continue to remain in a relatively modest size, slightly below the palm rest design also good to avoid the possibility of misuse. Better sensitivity of the touch, move the cursor up and relatively smooth, separate left and right buttons in the use of more than one type direct satisfactory performance.

Interface part, the majority are located on both sides of the main interfaces, including two USB3.0, one off charge support USB2.0, HDMI high-definition output, VGA analog video output, card reader, cable jacks, etc.. Kind of comprehensive, functional and practical. As a 13-inch business notebook and thin, the aircraft weight is not high, with a six-cell battery bare metal weight 1.745Kg, including the power adapter weighs 2.110Kg, slightly higher than the super pole, so it is quite easy carry. And if it is equipped with a four-cell battery version, weight should be on the basis of minus 200g.

Bottom of the fuselage, Latitude 3330 did not change compared to the V131 concerned, the same metal material to build, upgrade the bottom of the retention of specialized positions, hard drives, fans also come with the corresponding region thermal windows. Looks from the side, the Dell Latitude 3330 is still relatively thin, the thickness of the higher six-cell DELL 2N6MY Battery paving the body naturally, can give you a natural inclination angle of the keyboard and the bottom of the fuselage to enhance ventilation, auxiliary heat.

As Latitude series is the most entry models, 3330-metal body with solid materials, rich interfaces and practical, weight control is also relatively good. While the machine is referenced Vostro V131 mold, but eliminating the mold R & D costs, the price down, so that consumers can save a little money, so the practice is understandable. Dell Latitude 3330 palm rest made of composite material, soft touch. Left "LATITUDE" words also indicate identity of the aircraft in order to avoid confusion and Vostro.

His right palm rest are labeled with Core i5 and Windows 7 operating systems Logo stickers. OEM machine in Windows 8 operating system accounted for more than half the share of today, the Dell Latitude 3330 is still to take care of the user's habits, stick with Windows 7, is absolutely commendable. In addition, the aircraft lifted fingerprint identification device, after all, and HP 242 with 7800mAh 9cell HP 242 Battery compared to 3330 cheap too.

In addition, the Dell Latitude 3330 also went to the top right corner of the keyboard in addition to the existing three separate shortcuts, and removed the keyboard backlight, and more simple. Battery, the machine core and six optional four core two specifications, including four core battery of 44Wh, and mainstream ultra-thin notebook same; six-cell battery can reach 65Wh, is relatively high, I believe it will give the Machine bring more excellent endurance.

Latitude 3330 provides a separate upgrade positions. Opens you can see, there are two memory slots arranged side by side, as well as a standard-size 2.5-inch drive bays. The machine comes standard with a single 4GB DDR3 RAM, upgrade to 8GB dual-channel is still very simple. Hard drive, which uses the latest SSHD Seagate hybrid hard drive capacity 500GB, belongs thin disk. It features built-in 8GB MLC NAND storage granules for caching, when you repeatedly use a certain file, the hard disk will automatically put the files are stored in this 8GB inside, the next call to read directly therefrom, thereby significantly improved response speed and read speed. The typical acceleration situations such as system boot time can be significantly shortened.


Although this processor does not belong to the latest Haswell architecture, but the same 22nm manufacturing process, and the frequency, Core frequency should be higher, so the performance was even better. By CineBench R11.5 test, their multi-threaded computing performance as 2.51pts, than the i5-4200U Haswell strong a lot.


Compared with the Vostro V131, Dell Latitude 3330 with 6cell DELL WT5WP Battery less of a fingerprint identification, basically no different from other aspects, combined with its more affordable price, this kind of "less with" or to make people accept. In addition, as an ultra-thin models, this machine more adequate space for the upgrade, especially the adoption of hybrid hard drives, SSD without adding extra cases can while ensuring that the response speed and storage capacity, which is commendable.

TOSHIBA Satellite C55 C70 and LENOVO ThinkPad S3 S5 coming


In 1985, Toshiba developed the "Mobile PC" product, which is based on IBM PS / 2 systems, with advanced performance and portability have mobility, compared to the "laptop" is more portable, which is the first prototype laptop . Therefore, Toshiba often industry insiders call "the originator of the laptop."

Many of the world's first, it boast tongue leading technology, Toshiba computer has too much glory. And now the Toshiba computer and how? Before marketing strategies are different, Toshiba deeply appreciate, a research and development as the core competitiveness of enterprises, technology and products is its most valuable representative image. Thus in 2013, the Toshiba computer through the latest designs and most influential design products delivered to the user "Leading Innovation" Toshiba philosophy. The most fundamental technological advantage allows users to rediscover Toshiba laptop.

Toshiba's latest release of several notebook series features a new CID designed and made a "U" type philosophy. Not only to optimize the appearance, but also enhances the protection function. The slimmer design, allowing users to experience better. Touchpad increased by 110% of the space, user-friendly mobile use. Toshiba have adopted several new independent research and development of its board, the biggest advantage is the ability to effectively control the quality of large-scale circuit through leading-edge technology will be integrated effectively rational distribution of elements in both the product quality at the same time, maximize the whole machine The thin and light design.

Taking into account users usually need to extend notebook battery life, the physical power management is set to power saving mode, so we set up before the test is true, while prohibiting notebook reduce the brightness automatically after a period of time, turn off the screen backlight ban, prohibit automatic sleep. At the same time, we let WiFi kept in the open state, thus to simulate the user's actual use.


TOSHIBA Satellite C55 with TOSHIBA Satellite C55D Battery has always maintained a minimalist design, it can be said that low-key gorgeous. TOSHIBA Satellite C50 touch this with a new mold, simply means that in appearance to be more streamlined, minimalist design style is Satellite C50 is a major feature of the touch, but also new upgraded hardware configuration, which is equipped with Haswell Intel's latest processors.


Meanwhile, the new Toshiba laptop also joined the lithium polymer battery, and using the built-in design approach, not only can reduce weight, but also to better meet the overall slimmer design implementation. It is worth mentioning that Toshiba have joined the new hard acceleration, true dual output, split-screen software, such as the use Toshiba use helper functions. The application allows users to truly feel the Toshiba computer brings different experiences.

LENOVO ThinkPad S3 with 4cell LENOVO ThinkPad S3 Battery APU is a touch of the home value, the traditional PC body adding more features, for better human-computer interaction. From product modeling point of view, Toshiba S40Dt definitely considered a leader in all of the traditional PC, metal body to join, plus a lot of the aircraft. Although the aircraft in terms of performance in general, but sufficient to meet the entertainment needs of ordinary consumers.

Intel Haswell just recently released the latest processors, TOSHIBA based on the platform of the first touch of the Satellite C50 ensues. It is understood that. This product is equipped with the latest Haswell processors, the performance can have better protection, redesigned look still consistently minimalist style.

Before the evaluation TOSHIBA C50t super pole, compared to the previous products have a qualitative leap, the biggest difference is the touch screen aspect C50t choice. And this time, C70 came with 6cell TOSHIBA Satellite C70 Battery, in conjunction with the new Windows 8 operating system experience, this TOSHIBA Satellite C70 is also equipped with a capacitive touch screen, you can say this is a typical touch this. Then this came back to talk about a product that heat, endurance and performance.

Test software is still PowerMark, it PCMark, 3DMark, is also developed by the FutureMark launched. It will run a continuous loop of test scripts, including four common applications: Internet browsing, word processing, video playback, 3D games, so as much as possible close to the vast majority of the user's actual usage.

To facilitate product identification and the ability to model directly learned through product-related information, in 2013 adopted a new Toshiba product nomenclature. Models can be understood through the main products under the product family, size, processor type, and whether with touch functionality. The sub-models can be learned after the age of the product, sales channels, serial number, color and other information. For a notebook products, configuration, appearance, consumers are most concerned about the price point. And often the details will always be ignored, but these details are to assume more significance.

As mentioned the battery, then the next to talk about LENOVO ThinkPad S50 touch the endurance. We can see through the software detects aircraft built in a 32Wh capacity lithium polymer LENOVO ThinkPad S5 Battery, the battery life in accordance with the concept before Ivy Bridge, the theoretical value should be about 4 hours. Well equipped with the latest low-power Haswell processor, what will be the endurance performance of it?

Then there is the thermal performance testing, using thin body design and rear fan cooling performance of TOSHIBA Satellite C50 How? By convention we used FurMark software plus AIDA64 System Stability Test to make this machine run at high load conditions. Surface temperature, we use professional temperature detection device of the notebook cooling performance testing. In order to facilitate the distribution of temperature we observed the whole, we got through the instrument detects temperature distribution, recording and mark the various parts of the temperature, How to determine the thermal performance is good or bad, the maximum temperature not represent anything. Absolute temperature cooling vents is the highest, if not, that is the only show that thermal problems. When most of the heat accumulation in the cooling vents near the position, and the other parts of the temperature is not higher than 37 ℃, it can determine the cooling system design is more reasonable.

In the hardware configuration, this got this TOSHIBA Satellite C70 with 6cell TOSHIBA Satellite C70D Battery touch this with a 22nm process technology Intel Core i5 4200U dual-core processor, equipped with Western Digital 500G hard drive and 32GB solid state hard drive, and a single 4GB DDR3 1600MHz speed memory , graphics cards, the model comes with a processor with Intel HD 4400 graphics core.
