Newest FUJITSU LifeBook E733 E743 E753 E series Notebook coming


Notebook specifications dimensions from 2012 can be seen, the entire product line is gradually subdivided, "bipolar" camps began to stand out, "pole" super pole of the models, the ultimate slim body thickness, portable weight, fast response and good endurance to meet the user's daily use and office business travel purposes. Another "pole" is the ultimate sturdy performance of the large size of this game, mostly domineering publicity appearance, cool lighting effects, superior performance hardware specifications to attract players to the eye.

The near future, we are also not difficult to find, domestic notebook manufacturers launched over most of this new, start transfer of power points to large-size models, and the once 14-inch the Almighty models slowly lost the main location. Fire models have recently focused on the 15 inches, which concerns are high Shenzhou K590S Ares and Lenovo Y500 series are large-size game of the representative works, be able to find this little change, domestic notebook brand is to get rid of differentiation while to adjust.

Addition to the cool style rendering of the features in the game, but more importantly powerful discrete graphics performance, which is most concerned friends and players, FUJITSU E733 with 6cell FUJITSU LifeBook E733 Battery GeForce GTX 675MX use for the first time in 15 inches of mold, and before MSI GT70 the same configuration is a very high quality of the fever alone was the addition plus Core i7 quad-core processor, full HD resolution screen and SDD solid-state drive, E753 overall with being in line with the traditional gaming notebook. The aircraft is also FUJITSU first attempt in this field. In addition, the starting price control in million within for game enthusiasts, this is still very worthy of attention.


GTX 660M graphics card overclocking parameters, we were able to see the obvious differences, the core frequency from 835MHz to 970MHz, 50MHz and the memory bandwidth the dynamic speed upgrade from 950MHz to 1085MHz, memory frequency to enhance the upgrade from 80GB / s to 83.2GB / s. 3DMark Vantage Entry mode GPU score 43404,3 DMark 11 Entry mode score E4588 performance increase of 10% compared to non-overclocking.


Look from the back, a medieval shield-large "E" logo appears in the middle of the roof of the X should refer to represent the E743, the material on the roof, E753 uses a very high strength engineering plastics, surface accompanied by piano paint technology, from the shield LOGO four corners as a starting point, the top cover is club is visually divided into four parts, the decorative elements of the roof, the user will not soon bored. E743 with 6cell FUJITSU LifeBook E743 Battery roof shape into after special bumps processing, feeling like a diamond-cutting, which convey the beauty and fashion. The roof compression capability has been enhanced. The center of the region highly personalized "X" logo LED backlight design, the boot will be issued after the soft white light for the players to create a to a domineering striking visual experience.

The position of the aircraft near the shaft refinement processing large area snakeskin lines plus a clear metallic silver bullion, clever roof design elements rich, but also enhance the grip handle, less prone to accidental dropping .

Come take a look at the C-face, we see the numeric keypad area above the keyboard there is a row of touch-screen shortcut keys at the same time, are responsible for the pop-up drive, backlit keyboard, and a key Turbo function on both sides of the shortcut keys. speaker of children, the edge of the red brushed aluminum frame decorative eye-catching addition the entire trackpad is slightly left, left and right palm rest portion honeycomb floating-point, so as to increase the friction, the whole feel pretty good . Cold light-touch shortcut keys above the keyboard in the AH512 with 6cell FUJITSU LifeBook AH512 Battery, you can achieve a lot of functionality is a key time overclocking functions from left to right, a mute button to turn on / off keyboard lights, turn on / off the wireless network, turn off the monitor, the pop-up CD-ROM drive. However, most of the features in the Press on the screen does not respond to the prompt.

FUJITSULifeBook E753 with 103-key full-size keyboard, the longer the key process design, impressive percussion feel, and design of the numeric keypad area. In addition, To prevent inadvertently buttons in some games, the lower left hand corner of the keyboard and the Windows key to cancel. Is worth mentioning that there is a cool keyboard LED backlight, not only can create a tense atmosphere of the game, at the same time the middle of the night to play the game and do not need additional lighting help.

LifeBook E753 with THX certified sound, built-in 2.1 Dynaudio brand speakers, sound resolution and overall sense of space compared to other notebooks, has a clear advantage, especially in games and movies for the performance of a large dynamic scenes to experience a very good job. FUJITSU LifeBook E753 with a 63Wh FUJITSU LifeBook E753 Battery is equipped with a high quality brand speaker, pursuit is low distortion, high resolution, broadband sound, no coloration. Overall sound full round. In addition, FUJITSU launch a special MSI Audio Boost output sound quality enhancement technique, sound output connector, the use of expensive gold plating, increased antioxidant transmission efficiency and noise canceling strength, so the sound quality is purer, better to restore the original three-dimensional sound field, plus built-in headphones dedicated power amplifier chip, even if the external headphone can reflect better sound performance.


First tested in the case of default is not overclocked gaming performance of the GTX 660M. Game settings to select the 1920 × 1080 resolution, this resolution need to turn off the vertical sync, another anti-aliasing mode also need to close the game is just entering the first off the rain effect of highly resource-intensive, and can basically think so, a hurdle in the rain to ensure the smooth running, then the next hurdle will be no great problem.



The LifeBook AH562 with 6cell FUJITSU LifeBook AH562 Battery touchpad the chocolate keyboard feel with the ordinary version of the E743 indistinguishable. The bond length between the keycap, can reduce misuse finger tapping. The key process is longer, feel very comfortable under pressure. Keycap size is a bit thin, tapping up and there will be some small noise, but will not affect the normal use. Worth mentioning FUJITSULifeBook E743 inlets placed in the left side of the keyboard, and sucked into the cold air by the keyboard voids inside the fuselage, is discharged through a very long loop path through the left-hand side of the thermal windows, and the majority of heat than large components, such as processors, discrete graphics, etc. are placed in a position near the left side of the fuselage, which is more conducive to heat.

The comparison of the other keys of the main keyboard region, one of the lowermost of the keyboard row keycap size is enlarged. Rectangular buttons larger contact area, the user typing frequently used to the Ctrl key, Fn key, Windows 8 UI interface conjured the key to open the key and Alt key percussion more accurate finger operation to get rid of the cramped feeling of a traditional keyboard. Compared with the high version FUJITSULifeBook E743, the main cost of this touchpad FUJITSU E743 keyboard beneath cancel the backlight, although understandable from a cost perspective, but the editors think the humane design is still very necessary to retain. Perhaps the backlight is not daytime, when it encountered some dim light, the backlight is extremely important. Especially busy users often work overtime at night, and backlight help find keys, the accuracy will be greatly improved.

HP Mini 200-4200 with HP Mini 200 Battery interface configuration are concentrated in the left side of the fuselage, the rear of the front end, are arranged to have the headphone jack, two USB2.0 interface, a USB3.0, HDMI HD video output interface. Next to the HDMI still configure a special interface, the interface in the past FUJITSU E743 notebook also seen, the interface can use the bundled adapter cable matching adapter cable at one end connected to the notebook, the other end is very familiar The standard RJ-45 Ethernet port and VGA video output interface. In addition to the interface in the left side of the fuselage, the fuselage below the left palm rest also provides a multi-card reader slot to facilitate the users connected to a variety of external memory card device. The right side of the card reader laptop status lights, a power-on indicator, and a charge indicator.

DELL Inspiron 14R 5421 coming

The beginning of the year tend to lean manufacturers, but some manufacturers to be the old product model for small changes and upgrades. It is worthwhile for the consumer to be concerned, Inspiron 14R, Dell classic models recently were some new upgraded shape not only more beautiful, and the configuration changes have been made, the official online city 4999 yuan, interested friends can focus the next following this model Inspiron 14R (5421) evaluation.
In fact, from the the 14R front line 2011 Edition, shedding metal textured 14R Turbo in the middle of last year, the the color covers version of the 14R to a recently released the latest metal shell slim version 14R from each generation changes also can feel the rhythm of the Inspiron line with the trend of the times is becoming more and more closely. At present, after the release of the latest 14R, Dell has been successful Intel's third generation of low voltage processing used in mainstream entertainment notebook, thin and light, portable, personalized new products is a further demonstration.
Dell Inspiron 14R model with 40Wh DELL XCMRD Battery has been in use named, you can also see the recognition of the manufacturers and users of this product line is still very high. Editing side, there are some friends with 14R, very simple, they buy psychological "cheap" - stylish, big brands and cost-effective.
Personally feel these strengths, especially in the latest version of the Inspiron 14R, the new 14R uses a full metal surfaces child, blue, pink, red, gray four brushed metal appearance optionally, relative to the previous generation in terms of product imitation brushed, upgrade thinner appearance, but also due to the characteristics of the metal lines, shiny texture has changed dramatically.
With a relatively large change in the performance of the new version of 14R configuration, using Intel's third-generation Smart Core Duo low voltage processor, lower power consumption is only 17W, graphics can also upgrade to Kepler the 28nm GeForce GT640M LE (2GB memory). It should be said that Dell move to break the conventions of the traditional notebook with conventional voltage processor, an ultra the pole the low-power processor with mainstream alone significantly combination, performance increased dramatically, and we got this machine standard 65Wh capacity battery, pre-installed Win8 system, to better ensure the battery life and user experience, the official website of the special price is only 4999 yuan.


ASUS E46C with 4cell ASUS E46CA Battery model has been in use named, you can also see the recognition of the manufacturers and users of this product line is still very high. Editing side, there are some friends with 14R, very simple, they buy psychological "cheap" - stylish, big brands and cost-effective.

Personally feel these strengths, especially in the latest version of the Inspiron 14R, the new 14R uses a full metal surfaces child, blue, pink, red, gray four brushed metal appearance optionally, relative to the previous generation in terms of product imitation brushed, upgrade thinner appearance, but also due to the characteristics of the metal lines, shiny texture has changed dramatically.

The above listed characteristics of the new version of the 14R Here we look from the housing specific difference between the two. Upgrade the metal top cover, remove the sense of a lot of plastic, original holding in your hands fleshy feeling, become more smooth the cool. Metal cover not only better gloss and scratch resistant, dirt, compared to the plastic cover of the past a lot of good. The above listed characteristics of the new version of the 14R Here we look from the housing specific difference between the two. Upgrade the metal top cover, remove the sense of a lot of plastic, original holding in your hands fleshy feeling, become more smooth the cool. Metal cover not only better gloss and scratch resistant, dirt, compared to the plastic cover of the past a lot of good.
The new version of the 14R with 65wh DELL MR90Y Battery thickness of 25.61mm ~ 25.37mm, 20% thinner than the original size, which is the cause of a flat shape design, narrow optical drive, as well as low-power platform. The slimmer shape is more comfortable in his hand. The new Dell 14R C surface, still full brushed metal, the abolition of the upper right corner of the three shortcuts. In addition, Figure left of the red machine is the new version of the 14R, it battery compartment on the place in the middle of the shaft (uplift columnar), this design helps to save space inside the fuselage. The overall feeling of the keyboard surface is more open, and very comfortable to use.
In addition, the metal shaft from the shaft of the new 14R into a composite plastic, To Teng local battery, moved to the ends of the fuselage. From the graph, you can see the screen hinge was canceled in favor of the pad, even more neat. Earlier we looked at the new 14R enhance appearance actually become slim fuselage interface to do a re-design, as shown below.


The beginning of the year tend to lean manufacturers, but some manufacturers to be the old product model for small changes and upgrades. It is worthwhile for the consumer to be concerned, Inspiron 14R, Dell classic models recently were some new upgraded shape not only more beautiful, and the configuration changes have been made, the official online city 4999 yuan, interested friends can focus the next following this model Inspiron 14R (5421) evaluation.

In fact, from the the ASUS E46CB with ASUS E46CB Battery front line 2011 Edition, shedding metal textured 14R Turbo in the middle of last year, the the color covers version of the 14R to a recently released the latest metal shell slim version 14R from each generation changes also can feel the rhythm of the Inspiron line with the trend of the times is becoming more and more closely. At present, after the release of the latest 14R, Dell has been successful Intel's third generation of low voltage processing used in mainstream entertainment notebook, thin and light, portable, personalized new products is a further demonstration.

Interfaces, the brand new 14R streamlined interface, removed on the left VGA port, and Norway over RJ4 Ethernet port, and USB in order to maintain the appearance of consensus and did not use the blue paint, but this is really USB3 .0. The general interface is good enough, though a small VGA, but this is the future trend, after all, more than 3000 yuan TV has HDMI a. The new Dell 14R with a more flat design, with a slim optical drive, the right to retain only a USB 2.0 (support the shutdown charge), from a practical point of view, the right USB2.0 for connecting low-speed devices such as keyboard, mouse, just right.
System status lights, or remain in the front-end, which can effectively avoid the night affect the line of sight, the machine turned over, following the speaker's position or not, the new 14R change with metal mesh, the streamlined design of some place. The battery into long strips and stuffed into the ASUS E46C Battery capacity of the battery becomes bigger shaft position from the battery up to 40wh 4cell . An increase of 35 percent more than the original. Life has also been strengthened. The machine has been fully upgraded Windows8 operating system, but the products and did not join the touch function.

Comprehensive upgrade in the configuration on the new version of the Dell Inspiron 14R, the third generation of Intel Intelligent Core i5 3317U processor and NVIDIA GeForce GT640M LE of the latest 28nm Kepler architecture alone significantly, the overall configuration of a balanced, do not lose with the price of super The pole the present. Speaking in front of the Dell 14R uses a low-voltage processors, many users may be concerned about whether its performance will be affected, actually editing feel absolutely no need to worry, because now the mainstream ultra-pole of this widely used i5 3317U this processor, 1.7GHz base frequency, maximum Turbo 2.6GHz, 22nm process, the TDP only half of the traditional standard voltage processor (17W), the experience of the practical application of the difference is not large (theoretical results CINEBENCH R10 is approximately 16% of the gap).
CINEBENCH R10 CPU test section, we use precision by rendering a 3D scene screen test processor, multi-threaded processing processing capacity. From the test results from the point of view of the above, this is indeed a very powerful performance dual nuclear power plant thread processor, multithreaded score 9039 can cope with the large amount of data throughput, such as some NLE software. In addition, it mononuclear scores reached 4530 and 4cell ASUS E46CM Battery, for frequency-sensitive software, in terms of operating efficiency will be improved significantly. (The processor of the conventional voltage i5 3210M multithreaded score is 10839)

SONY VAIO T14 and T15 Touch coming


Windows 8 officially released in March more than Objectively speaking, Microsoft's latest system and did not give us much surprise, the expected performance and did not meet the expectations of the vast majority of users. But as a new generation of PC main system, no matter what its fate will be how to develop for laptops will bring a series of significant impact.

The most significant change is the laptop / ultra-extreme form of products, almost all of the launch Win 8 notebook manufacturers are not designed to promote the use of its own Windows 8 Road, separate, flip, slider ... ASUS is no exception, rich notebook product line, Windows 8 series S7 flagship Full HD the Corning glass screen, touch 10, 180-degree flip, ultra-thin shape, whether from the configuration or design, are development is moving in the direction of the latest, most powerful derivative. Although the S7 the price above the mainstream top, but the significance of this flagship product is nowhere near that simple popularity. After this, ASUS 'mainstream series also ushered in the new Windows 8 upgrade, such as today, this ASUS X402C with 6cell ASUS X402C Battery.

Support for touch is a well known function of Windows 8 for PC products, although Microsoft is not possible to force all Win 8 devices are to be used to the touch screen, but for the traditional notebook, do not touch the Windows 8 total seems a bit weird. The ASUS X402 touchpad was born the same exterior design features, this has a traditional notebook styling Win 8 how to locate? For the intended users of the early adopters of Windows 8 bring? The answers to these questions let us explore below.

Came to us YORK evaluation of this notebook models X402C, the configured i5-3317u low voltage processor, 4GB DDR3 1600MHz Memory, NVIDIA GeForce GT 620M graphics card and 500GB mechanical hard. Of course, for this notebook, the most important characteristic is equipped with a 14 inch capacitive screen supporting 10-point touch, which is the biggest difference with the previous generation models X402.

About the shape of the notebook, contact PACKARD BELL EasyNote LV11 users will not be unfamiliar, first time bring us YORK has listed last year X402 comprehensive evaluation (the PACKARD BELL EasyNote LV11 thin and light with a combination of the performance the fashion this comprehensive evaluation ). It is worth noting that The new LV11 with 9cell PACKARD BELL EasyNote LV11 Battery upgrade the touch screen, and its B-side design small changes, narrower border also change the position of the camera, a higher degree of integration. These changes are no doubt in order to provide a more comfortable touch experience.

ASUS X402C C touchpad surface continues consistently minimalist style, outside in addition to the keyboard, trackpad, power button, there are some noteworthy details, such as Dolby certification logo text above the keyboard, and the right side of the palm rest dimensional LOGO These elements are dotted this notebook even more unique. Of course, the thin and light ASUS X402 keyboard design is still very thin, slightly shorter key way, the key force feedback is not sufficient, prolonged use would be more difficult.


CineBench is a Cinema 4D effects engine developed for the film and television industry, you can test the CPU and graphics performance. Major consideration its CPU processing part of routine testing. The test is divided into two: The first test simply use the CPU rendering a high-precision 3D scene screen only run in a single-processor, single thread, if the system has more than one processor core or support multithreading, the first to use only one thread, the second run all the processor cores and threads.

GeForce GT 645M, GeForce GT 640M the simple upgrade version, both specifications is exactly the same, the former only to enhance the core frequency from 625MHz to 710MHz only. Core basic definitely still 28nm GK107, 384 stream processors, GT 645M, though only slightly enhance the the point frequency but known more than 25% higher than the GT 640M performance test to verify.



Interfaces, touch ASUS X402 with 6cell ASUS X402CA Battery and its predecessor is not much difference, still equipped with two USB2.0 and USB 3.0 interface, an HDMI video output interface, a power connector, an external expansion interface and a 2in1 card reader also designed a a 9mm slim CD-ROM. notebook D surface design there are some functional or so there was a sound with the built-in Dolby sound can bring more superior audio-visual experience. Meanwhile, the bottom of the fuselage set multiple cooling holes for a thin and light notebook, adequate cooling is also an integral part of critical design.

Also worth mentioning is that the bottom of the fuselage in addition to the parameter table, a Windows 8 laser stickers that pure descent Genuine Win 8. Configuration, this ASUS X402 010 slim with a new generation of low-power Intel Core I5 ​​3317U processor, equipped with HM77 chipset, 4GB DDR3-1600 memory, 500G hard drive 5400 rpm. The graphics, the machine uses the Intel Core HD 4000 graphics card +1 G memory, NVIDIA GeForce GT 620M graphics card, fully meet the user's day-to-day application requirements from the hardware point of view.

Objective test, I used 6cell FUJITSU Lifebook LH522 Battery CPU-Z and GPU-Z, CineBench the 11.5,3 DMark11 and PCMark 7 software testing of hardware performance, configuration changes (from 2GB DDR3 1333 memory upgrade to 4GB DDR3-1600 ), we obtained results are very much the same with the previous evaluation.

The 3Dmark 06 achievement test scores of the default resolution is 9976, and the 1366 × 768 resolution score of 12060, compared to the a GT640M results of approximately 23% increase. Basically in line with official propaganda that. Also in 3Dmark Vantage test based on DX10, GPU score on GT645M GT640M more than about 150 points in DX10 on the difference between the two is not that great.

The than SONY VAIO T14 with SONY VGP-BPS33 Battery appearance of workmanship UI47 a slight increase, although there are less than in the fuselage details, but the overall evaluation or high. Especially adequate interface, strong performance, and prices have a strong advantage. But on the other hand, it is the heat, life is still to be improved. ASUS consistent style are high-performance hardware + combination of low price, look more attractive, but for users who purchase over most of this, perhaps the experience will be more important to some good detail.

ASUS X502C X502CA Series coming


ASUS X502C set aside in order to allow the user aspects upgrade a 2.5-inch drive bays, as well as provide better cooling capacity, thereby sacrificing the slim, this pursuit of perfection always beneath. To begin next hands dismantle the widget, first take a look at first before making meticulous disassemble battery, remove the battery is also disassemble the primary task.

Scored before the entire board, we need to uninstall the components on the motherboard, such as memory, the cable, card reader module, wireless network module, and so on. Asus the X502C body internal fixed or relatively complex, first remove the battery and hard drive, and then take away the widget, the last to win the motherboard.

The disassemble ASUS X502C with a larger capacity battery, we can see from the dismantled battery on the battery capacity of 53Wh ASUS X502CA Battery In our previous endurance test, the aircraft reached a score of 7 hours. In addition, we also found that some of the details of the aircraft inside, such as the machine interface is not mSATA SSD Solid State Drive but MINI PCI-E, the volume is very small, only a wireless card so big.

NVIDIA GT630M is a new generation of NVIDIA GT600M Series graphics card to locate the end user product, it did not adopt the the NVIDIA new generation Kepler architecture, but follows the previous generation GT500M series Fermi architecture, to score 3Dmark VANTAGE GPU items 17930 results quite remarkable ultra-pole of this card game performance in the most mainstream 14-inch single, can deal with this level of 3D game "Call of Duty" 1366 × 768 resolution.


DELL Vostro 5460 with built-in DELL Vostro 5460 Battery configuration Intel third generation Core the i5-3317UM processor in a 22nm 3D transistor technology is the backbone of a new generation of ultra-extreme processors from CINEBENCH R10 test results, i5-3317UM the single-threaded score of 4651, The multithreading score 9393, this kind of success in the mainstream in the mid to upper levels of ultra-extreme.


We saw earlier that ASUS X502C with the SSD popular products in the ultra-extreme, MINI PCI-E interface and has a smaller volume may be the hard disk in the future trend. Look here, the Wireless LAN module is still with separate and the antenna integration era should be far away.

ASUS X502C commercial ultra-pole of this with the ultra-extreme rare VGA interface, which is in addition to the hard drive, battery Another factor affecting the whole thickness of the design. After all, is the flagship business characteristics, and therefore equipped with a VGA interface with commonly used business people must, of course, the X502C screen and ASUS X502C Battery is not too thin.

In our previous review, Asus X502CA, total with 6GB memory capacity, but I found in disassemble memory is only 2GB, then there 4G memory go? Is actually the X502C a memory slot, while another 4GB of memory were integrated into the motherboard on top.

Taking into account that usually need to extend the life of the notebook would power management settings for power saving mode, so before testing is also true setting, while prohibiting the notebook to reduce the brightness automatically after a certain period of time, turn off the screen backlight is prohibited, prohibit automatic sleep. At the same time, we let the WiFi maintained in the open state, to simulate the user's actual use state.

ASUS X502C has a variety of configurations, including independence was remarkable version with non-exclusive version, of course, because of cost considerations, the basic independence was remarkable version with the non-exclusive version of the shape, internal structure will be the same (also the same motherboard), different then is whether the discrete graphics chip. The X502C have significant independence version, the machine is equipped with dual cooling fans, rather than alone significantly version also has a dual-fan.

X502C dual cooling fan design, heat theoretically non-exclusive remarkable version will be better, the battery life will be better, of course, this is not absolute, and we did not get the version of the product alone significantly, yet unclear alone significant version of the battery capacity is greater.

Next time let us enjoy them together under LifeBook SH782 body hardware and a 6cell FUJITSU LifeBook SH782 Battery, a higher degree of integration of the motherboard module. When we remove this board, the result is the same as we expected the same the whole motherboard module is medium in size, compact structure between chips, or solid material.

Overall, this integrated motherboard has good material to work, this should be regarded as Asus strengths. As previously imagined onboard 4GB of memory on the motherboard, although the possibility of limiting the user to upgrade their own, but reserve a memory upgrade slot is also pretty good. Disassemble the end, we found that the internal structure of the design engineer in the aircraft up and down a lot of effort, each not see the bay as well as roll cages are designed very meticulous, keyboard is a one-time fit can not be removed. From the inside, we can see many soft PCB, there are some details worthy of recognition, how out of place with the cushion.


Adjust the power supply to the power-saving mode after a period of testing, Asus the LifeBook A512 with 6cell FUJITSU LifeBook A512 Battery eventually get the test scores of 7 hours and 15 minutes, this life has been very good results in respect of the current notebook. Of course, the practical applications will theory test there are some differences, the testing time to reach more than seven hours, suitable for use in low-intensity use of mobile office.

ASUS VivoBook S550C Series ultrabook


The Asus VivoBook series is Asus launched in October 2012, the new parity Win8 touch screen notebook the repercussions are good after the listing of its S400 and S200. Recently, ASUS has introduced a 13-inch the new - VivoBook S300 thin degree comparable to ultra-extreme.

The ASUS S300 and S400 appearance over most of this is similar to a thickness of about 20.3mm and weighs only 1.82kg, the whole thin portable. The 13.3-inch screen resolution of 1366 × 768 pixels.

The VivoBook series below is divided into three series, VivoBook S200 (11.6 inches), depending on the size and needs VivoBook S400 (14 inches) and VivoBook S500, the test today S550CM with ASUS S550C Battery is a 15.6-inch Win8 touch + alone was super The pole the present. The characteristics of the aircraft, rugged portable design simple, cost-effective. The VivoBook S550CM design own style: the calm metal wire enclosure, integrated C surface CNC technology, the ultra-narrow battery unbounded touch screen, wedge-shaped design of the flow line, 50% glass fiber bottom cover, fashion design, seamless back-mounted keyboard oversized touchpad with metal palm rest, the following specific look.

Few whole box accessories, battery, user's manual, warranty booklet, belted, adapter, notebook. The shape with VivoBook S550CM, the series of other similar size models, are dark brown to black brushed metal casing is quite simple, first got the machine that size is indeed not small, but relatively thin. Slim body shape VivoBook S550CM with Glare panel unbounded touch screen together is very neat. The slimline use also makes the thickness control in the following 22.14mm, in line with the 15.6-inch ultra-pole of the specification.


Finally, we were once again test the overall performance PCMARK 07. The score for 2542, this score them in the mainstream consumer entertainment notebook at a medium level, but you have to remember LENOVO ThinkPad T431 Battery, it uses low-voltage version of the processor, a low-voltage version of the graphics card to improve the life time of this score in which has a unique advantage in the price of entertainment products. P55V overall performance at a medium level to deal with the day-to-day application of the user demand is absolutely no problem At the same time, low-voltage processors, graphics reduce power consumption, thereby increasing the life time in the mobile entertainment experience even better performance.

Software to run sub is an integral part of evaluation which, it can be laptop Details passing score to show to you the consumer, but the meaning of such a fraction, not everyone understand that it represents. Therefore, I next move will be to use some of our popular software some common application testing, take a look at this laptop everyday applications.


VivoBook S550CM with 4cell ASUS S550CM Battery wedge-shaped design, the front end is slightly narrower, hand holding more stickers. However, the underside of the aircraft is not metal, it uses a +50% glass fiber coating of plastic material, not only feel more smooth, and the stiffness has improved. In addition to a 24GB SSD is super pole of the necessary hardware, there are a lot of the Asus its own technology, including Instant On technology based on SHE II chip, Asus vocal master (best version) audio technology, intelligent gesture touch and other technology. In addition it is also equipped with a NVIDIA Geforce GT635M alone significantly chip allows users to greatly limit the play of the Imagination, competent more application environments.


Windows 8 born with one time after another, looks quite a bit to replace the ultra-extreme momentum with traditional Pad the Almighty tablet used in two forms, and the Tablet PC is also on display at CES majority, but not thereon announced the traditional tablet will leave the stage - by virtue of mature applications mall with different user needs, emphasis on the entertainment the traditional Pad will still exist in our line of sight. And to be expected, traditional flat will develop unique features to cater to consumers, such as ultra-low-cost, such as ultra-high-definition resolution.

In a new era of ultra-extreme and tablet PCs continue to impact the traditional notebook market, the traditional notebook must protect better performance colleagues, the thickness of the product become more slim. This the P55V the actual measurement of the thickness of 25.58mm, and the previous generation compared to 32.21mm. Weight which can not be ignored in the mainstream market, then this new P55V performance in this regard will be how? After the actual measurements, it weighs only 2.1Kg, compared with the previous generation, the ability to move a certain upgrade.

Old and new contrast is prominent the P55V constantly updated continuously adapt to a market performance. Obviously, the new P55V with 6cell ASUS P55VA Battery design more in line with modern consumer aesthetic point of view, the corner arc of the apparent convergence, more sharp. D surface to increase the bottom bracket is a more user-friendly design, provide better operating experience, and also heat a little help. New P55V shell design look fuller visual effects. Its shell is made of mainstream brushed metal style, not only looks full texture, but the effect is more prominent anti-erosion, better cooling notebook also help to some extent. The drawing style is precisely because of these characteristics.


These grim test environment, the machine is not only able to meet the needs of ordinary business people in office, and also be able to meet the demands of professionals often work in harsh environments. Mentioned keyboard feel, for the traditional notebook, most of the design of full-size, but also the key process is relatively modest, so typing comfort to the user will not cause too much impact. However, over most of this to maintain a certain body thickness, so the keyboard is slimmer Specifications feel will be greatly reduced, which also led to the use of ultra-extreme users would feel uncomfortable short key way.

Ultra-extreme, MEDION Erazer X6825 with 9cell MEDION Erazer X6825 Battery or a line with the U.S. military MIL-STD 810G testing standards. Aircraft through the shock, moisture, dust, seismic resistance, high temperature resistance, high pressure 16 test, at a height of 4572 meters above sea level, 60 ℃ high temperature to minus 29 ℃ low temperature environment under normal operation; wind speed of 5 sand environment; 10-500Hz vibration frequency, under normal running 1.04Grms vibration intensity; spill-resistant hard drive in any position safely tolerate 2 ounces of water test.


MEDION Erazer X7821's keyboard is used to change some of my most of the ultra-extreme poor cognitive keyboard feel, speaking from personal feeling. The Erazer X7821 the keyboard backplane sinking depth larger keycap protruding height compared to the other over most of this advantage, the same time the key way to improve the. Rebound of increased keycap closer fingertip feel when struck also comfortable, ideal for long typing his desk.



P55V silver-gray casing is tightly wrapped in the border being after the author touched lap after found it borders converge quite close, feel smooth and not jerky feeling. But I in the A side down with your fingers gently press, the more obvious the extent of its ups and downs. P55V with ASUS P55V Battery and silver ASUS logo in the top cover central India, which follows the Business P series has always been traditional, simple but without losing a fashion style. Become the crowning touch to the A side, has also become a sign of business P series. Using shell design, processing the P55V the four corners has a more sleek, compared for those angular notebook, this design more rich aesthetic will be more comfortable in the hand.


MEDION Erazer X7821 power button is designed keyboard Founder central location, the black keys rectangular shape and angular, but also fully embodies the aircraft restrained and sedate temperament. The left of the power button arrangement three volume shortcut keys, from left to right is a mute button, volume down button and the volume increase button. It is worth mentioning that the three buttons, not physical buttons, and there is no flexibility, but clever use of the touch function, and white light extinguished while adding a gradient effect.

MEDION Erazer X7815 Battery and keyboard feel excellent addition to reasonable key way, in fact, there is another reason. Although seemingly also use a chocolate keyboard design, but the shape of the point of view or different. MEDION Erazer X7821 keyboard with a trapezoidal design, the surface concave users fingers fit the keyboard.


Next we P55V turned inside, take a look at the back of it. D surface bottom bracket has a user-friendly design, which is the old P55V design, raised to notebook sites become higher, and thus there is a certain improvement in the heat, and the keyboard angle inclined downward, and thus the degree of operation comfort is more apparent. The P55V the back four corners of the rubber base is made of a circular design, so that not only can make the notebook will not easily shake them in the course of, and mobile desktop obvious the Dayton plug the sense not occur.


The new the P55V overall performance is a moderate, but the price of 5,299 yuan to buy a longer life, better ability to move, excellent audio-visual effect is more traditional laptop can be said is good value for money.


The new the ASUS P55VA body in a substantial degree of corrosion resistance has a good performance. Follows the mainstream of brushed metal case design has a more comfortable visual effect, and the shell of this style will bring the feeling of a high quality. Brand new shell design with a young visual effects on the overall effect. The overall appearance of the the P55V new combination of old and very gentile. Let us now take a look at a new P55V the screen, before mentioned, the screen does not change with the previous generation, just wrapped border becomes like this. The bottom of the screen identifies the new the P55V printed up ASUS words, the previous generation.

But the effect of new U955 display will than the previous generation has improved, because it will be the graphics card upgrade to 2GB GT 640M LE graphics card this Nvidia graphics card can be regarded as a transitional product, performance is slightly lower than the GT 640M, GT 630M to be much higher. Its specific ability behind the performance test will have a more detailed answer. New-U955 with 4cell TOSHIBA Satellite U955 Battery the top of the screen with a 100-megapixel camera, for users to video communication with friends and family. New P55V shaft design by sunken into the traditional style, this may be with optional battery some relationship, and therefore in the maximum open angle slightly less. The damping slightly General, the more difficult one-handed opening and closing. The C side, you can clearly see that battery raised, may need some time to adapt to it.

New P55V mainstream chocolate floating keyboard keys shorter duration, on the input will be slightly affected, but the arc-shaped keyboard has a good performance in the beautiful and tactile aspects and daily cleaning simpler.

Touchpad still uses a split, this mode is more in line with the use of the mass consumer habits, smoother operation. Affixed to the left of the touchpad ability of new ASUS P55V updates, new battery management functions together with the use of a low-voltage processor, will be improved endurance. New upgraded graphics will display aspects for this P55V better results, to change plus upgrade, so this the P55V has a new experience. And selection of chocolate floating keyboard provides excellent tactile, with the bottom bracket on the D surface cells, the effect is more obvious, the traditional split touchpad than integrated so that users have a more familiar mode of operation.


TrackPoint presumably everyone remember up the design not only ThinkPad family MEDION Erazer series has not give up this design. Black TrackPoint is located in the central position of the fourth row and the fifth row of keys, although not very eye-catching, but still very convenient.

The backlight can be provided by the direction of the FN + key right adjusted, divided into five brightness level, respectively, is 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%, the user can be appropriately adjusted according to actual environment.

As the leading party of the PC industry, Intel has demonstrated sufficient engineering technical strength, but this is not enough to change the entire notebook market.

"The problem is not Intel. Constraints of software and operating systems, so that the application and the overall experience behind." Analysis, said, "The key to the production of touch devices have to adapt to the application support. Obviously, now also need to improve."
