Overview of the tablet Trekstor SurfTab Wintron 10.1

Cure for amnesia. Unlike most other commercially available Windows-plate model of this review, is equipped with a sufficient amount of RAM. But its advantages do not end there.

2 GB of RAM instead of 1 GB - it's good. Though not as good as 4 GB. As already guessed, dear reader, Wintron 10.1 boasts serious variety of configuration options that uncommon in the world of tablets.

In our review involved the most inexpensive model with WXGA screen instead of Full HD, and without built-in 3G-modem.

Features of the tablet. design

Despite the adequate amount of RAM, internal users have very little: 32 GB flash memory constant freely only about 20 GB. Place is the operating system Windows 8.1 with the search Bing, it is added pre-installed Microsoft Office (license for one year).

Extend the built-in memory allows memory expansion slot micro-SD. Available also micro-HDMI video output and even one full-port USB 2.0, in addition to micro-USB. Also supported by WiFi and Bluetooth. A decent set for a tablet.

With a thickness of about 9 mm and weight body, equal to 0.66 Kg, Wintron 10.1 slightly heavy for long holding the weight in one hand. Working with him is convenient, just put on the table or on your knees, or other surface. However, Android-tablet with a similar screen sizes weigh only slightly less.

Looks dark with silver stroke on the side faces quite serious. Would not hurt, however, little to diversify the monotony - many users would appreciate the opportunity to choose the orange-and-white, or even any bright color instead of the usual gray. But what is not, it is not.

display

The manufacturer used the Mighty IPS screen with a resolution of 1280x800 pixels. It is suitable for reading (in any orientation), and to view photos and videos. Touch coating does not require calibration accuracy when first turned on, and always instantly reacts to touch dry fingers.

We measured the brightness and contrast are good, as well as viewing angles. Tablet copes with sunlight (the contents of the screen is still readable).

Factory calibration matrix is not bad, and problems with color reproduction, in addition to slightly evolved cold (blue) colors, either by eye colorimeter could not be detected.

A brief overview of the notebook MSI GS60 2QE Ghost Pro 4K

Its weight in gold. The updated model of a thin gaming notebook from MSI is now available with a powerful but more economical nVIDIA graphics card series Maxwell, Ultra HD screen and golden colors. Is it worth the money or should choose simpler and cheaper?

Last summer we tested MSI GS60 2PE Ghost Pro 3K - thin and light notebook with a high-resolution screen and powerful gaming components. They are clearly not enough cooling, and in 2880 to 1620 pixels were explicit enumeration, the installed graphics card nVIDIA GeForce GTX 870M to play on this resolution is simply not designed. But as soon as it became possible, it was replaced by the new GTX 970M, based on economical architecture Maxwell - power consumption and heat have been reduced, and it is possible that the laptop is no longer cool.

Productivity also rose, and MSI decided that the laptop screen should be replaced by more precise, this time "4K" (in fact, of course, correct its resolution called Ultra HD - read why), ie 3840 to 2160 pixels . It is 4 times more than in Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels), and even the graphics card for desktop PCs with such a resolution in games cope with difficulty. Detailed testing of the screen will reveal its strengths and weaknesses and help you decide whether or not to pay extra for a configuration with GS60 Ultra HD.

At this time, we were sent to test the model with golden colors of the shell (Sales also still have a black). The case itself is completely changed and talk in detail about it, we will not - related information, refer to our review of the previous model GS60. The same applies to interfaces, keyboard and klikpadu, speakers and communications. This time is used by the wireless module Qualcomm, not Intel, but their capabilities and the reception quality are the same. So pay attention to detail UHD-screen and a new video card: configuration for notebook MSI with them requires more than 130 thousand rubles, which is approximately equal to the value of recently tested Asus G751JY with more powerful components, and almost any other gaming laptop for the money could be your - even as thin as our GS60. Know whether it is right MSI appreciated his creation, and whether it will suit everyone.

Matrix resolution screen made by Samsung, is 3840 to 2160 pixels (Ultra HD). It's very, very much, because even in 1920 by 1080 pixels on a 15.6-inch diagonal provide quite a clear picture. However, if we compare it with the screen Apple MacBook Pro Retina 15 (2880 by 1800 pixels), the difference is still noticeable. But this is not the limit, our Ultra HD screen looks even more accurate, though the difference is not so great.

However, if the Mac OS X for such a high resolution adapted perfectly in Windows 8.1 is still experiencing problems. More precisely, not so much in itself Windows, in applications written for it, developers do not follow this precise guidelines as in the case of the Mac. Take, for example, the game client Origin of the well-known company EA (Electronic Arts). Its current version is clearly not designed for such high-definition screens, as our GS60: Fonts menu tiny, and 30 games in our library took only half of the screen.

Black level can not be considered high, but at the same time of 0.45 cd / m² - no more than the average result for the modern premium-level screen. Black seems a little grayish, but no more than 3K-model (0.43 cd / m²), and IPS-matrix result is not so bad, the values in the 0.2-0.3 cd / m² are rare. Given this figure and the highest measured value of brightness, the maximum contrast ratio was 536: 1, quite mediocre for such an expensive laptop result. 3K-U model it is 751: 1, and best IPS-matrix exceeds 1000: 1. Thus, the screen provides a very clear picture, but the colors seem a little faded.

The new processors Qualcomm Snapdragon. The first information

Anticipated problems processor Snapdragon upper price range 810 is still not confirmed, however, some producers have declined to use it. For example, the smartphone Samsung Galaxy S6 may instead use the chip Samsung Exynos.

But Qualcomm has other suggestions, more successful (like Snapdragon 801), and the company is preparing to soon expand even list them. We are talking about completely new 64-bit chips, which will be familiar to the various smartphones and tablets around the second half of this year.

Snapdragon 616. The logical development of Snapdragon 615, with eight cores architecture Cortex ARM A53 with a frequency of 1.8 GHz to 2.2 GHz. Claim to support LTE Cat. 6 (up to 300 Mbit / s) and built-in Adreno 408 graphics accelerator.
Snapdragon 620. Uses Qualcomm's own architecture called Taipan (the details are still unknown) and uses 4 cores with graphics chip Adreno 418. Supports LTE Cat. 10 (up to 450 Mbit / s). In turn, the chips with indices 625 and 629 use the same graphics chip and the same standard LTE, but equipped with 8 cores and are able to work with a mobile RAM LP DDR4.
Snapdragon 815 uses eight cores, both of which are active only 4 (four weak core to save power or four powerful for demanding tasks). Standard LTE - Cat. 10 (up to 450 Mbps), a graphics accelerator - Adreno 450 is supported LP DDR4.
Snapdragon 820. The fastest and most interesting of all, it will be produced by Global Foundries and fast to use 8 cores. Responsible for the graphics adapter previously unseen Adreno 530, LP DDR4 and 450-Mbps LTE in place.

A brief overview of the laptop iBuyPower Chimera CX-9

Tongue of flame. It was he who lights up in the eyes of any techno-enthusiast with a Chimera CX-9. The distinctive orange body and fast hardware configuration, what else is needed in order to play high quality?

Design and workmanship

CX-9 looks wonderfully, photographs perfectly capture it. Durable design, orange on the outside and silver-black inside, made of metal and thick, dense plastic. Hindrances to the quality of performance we have not found, although mount the screen could be more rigid (with shaking laptop opening angle changes slightly).

Massive, aggressive and attractive style causes some association with expensive bikes. Despite the considerable thickness (up to 4 inches when closed), CX-9 can hardly be called unwieldy. That is, a backpack to carry it pulls quite noticeable, but visually looks much more compact than it actually is. Bright color and beveled faces in many places it is responsible for a large extent.

Most covering the bottom cover quite easily dismantled, after which the user gets access to the battery, motherboard, fan, hard drive and RAM.

Ports and Communications

There is nothing unusual in this section. Four-port USB - the norm for self-respecting gaming notebook. Two video output (analog VGA and digital HDMI) is more or less will bring the image to the external monitor, TV or projector. Wired Ethernet network functions as it should be.

The wireless module is our version of the CX-9 released by Realtek. It's pretty simple, only supports 2.4 GHz band (802.11b / g / n), and Bluetooth 4.0 (class 2). The second configuration option - this adapter with Intel WiFi a / b / g / n / ac.

input Devices

Laptop keyboard not only looks decent, but also able to provide a pleasant sensation from work. Good depth and sufficient return stroke keys allow you to type a lot of text without fatigue finger. The length of the keyboard to the width - 34.5 cm, height - 10.5 cm.

A little less than we liked the relatively small (10 x 5 cm) touch panel to control the cursor. Default multitouch gestures somehow disabled, which raises the need to open yourself to deal with the driver and settings. However, the touchpad has a pleasant surface, and two 'mouse' buttons emit a pleasant noticeable click when pressed. It is in moments will need to do without the mouse.

Overview gaming notebook HP Omen

The style of the future. Fantastic, covered with mysterious designs laptop - an impressive sight! No hint of impersonality. At once, designers Hewlett Packard does not eat the bread for nothing. But the lack of a single problem Omen more than offset by the presence of the other.

Design and workmanship

From the first moment of acquaintance user mesmerizing combination of plastic and metal, and the mysterious treugolchatyh patterns illuminated. Unusually looks everything from the keyboard with the side buttons and to lattice blowing hot air. Besides, the notebook relatively thin and lightweight (2 centimeters in a closed state and weighs about 2.1 kilograms). For gaming device is very valuable, because they usually represent a heavy angular bricks.

With strong shaking screen opens to the maximum position (135 degrees). Mount the screen could be more rigid, even we have to admit that it looks very shiny loop effectively. From a closed state Omen opens easily with one hand.

Disassemble the model is likely to be difficult. And if not impossible. Bolts are not visible on the bottom there is a service compartment for quick replacement RAM or HDD. The battery is also firmly fixed in the interior of the housing. Around it turns out that for any operation of the internal, including dusting, it is necessary to contact the service center.

Ports and Communications

All physical interfaces are located on the rear side of the notebook. They are not so much, and enjoy them is not very convenient: the acquisition will be useful at least one USB-hub or extension to keep him at hand and do not drag behind a laptop every time you connect peripherals. To work with a wired Ethernet network will also have to buy a USB-adapter.

Positive note the presence of four USB 3.0 right away and fast wireless data transfer protocol WiFi 802.11ac.

input Devices

The keyboard is quiet behaves under vigorous typing without making annoying clicks. Matt polished surface rather quickly zamaryvaetsya dirty fingers. The keys are not too generous depth of stroke, but at least adequate returns; they are more or less suited for a set of large texts.

With the pre-installed software (image below), you can change the backlight color of individual groups of keys, and assign its functions to the keys P1 ... P6.

Wide, smooth touch pad for cursor control (klikpad) copes with the recognition of even a very quick touches and holding finger over the surface.

Overview of hybrid tablet Dell Latitude 13, 7350

Ultrabook transformer. Dell Latitude 13 7350 worth very expensive, but also offers a lot - the focus of a new efficient processor Intel Core M and expected thanks to him, a long battery life.

Hybrid Tablet level of our Dell Latitude 13, 7350 - a tool for work, study, and multimedia playback. They are expected to be in high speed, image quality, a lot of communication and interfaces, and long battery life. Latitude 7350 is based on the efficient processor Intel Core M, created specifically for such devices, and uses the SSD-drive, so that speed can be no doubt. Full HD IPS-screen promises a clear and vivid picture, and the presence of the battery in the tablet itself, and in the dock - a decent time. We verify whether our expectations are met.

Design and Build Quality

And the tablet and the keyboard is made quite accurately. Parts fit tightly, wide gaps, no dust collectors. We were pleasantly surprised by the resistance to bending of the keyboard: it is usually in such devices much lower. The pen tablet with some effort, you can bend, but only slightly. Pressure plate can not be, but around the keyboard is vulnerable to this type of deformation plots still available. We believe that for the price Dell should not skimp and use aluminum for all parts of the body, not just the bottom of the keyboard and the back of the tablet.

By design, Latitude 13 is the best suited definition of "low-key". The device is not that ugly, but its original appearance can not be named. Matte black and glossy surface of the screen look very boring - we hope that the functionality of the tablet will allow not pay attention to it.

Loop docking station allows maximum opening angle of about 120 degrees, which is pretty reasonable - even a little, and the plate is simply to outweighed the keyboard, making the design tip "on the back." At least a predetermined angle hinges hold confidently even too - open the screen with one hand will not work.

Unlike many competing tablets and hybrids, Latitude 13 readily provides access to its internal components. Just remove the back of the tablet, not even secured with screws instead they use plastic clip, so you should be patient and proceed with caution. No fan, as efficient processor Intel Core M passively cooled, but there are a few components that can be replaced if desired. This keeps the battery a few screws, BIOS-battery, SSD-drive format M.2, wireless (Wi-Fi / Bluetooth) module and one free slot M.2, designed for 3G or 4G / LTE modem. Necessary for its operation of the antenna are built so that you can independently adjust independently bought a modem or buy a little more expensive configuration with integrated LTE-modem from Dell (Wireless 5810e). The only thing missing - a memory in the form of a standard removable module SO-DIMM instead of soldered on the motherboard chips, but here everything is clear: SODIMM-slot design thickens considerably, and a place for it was not. The rest of the Dell deserves praise - to contact the service center for elementary operations such as installing a larger capacity SSD or replacement battery is not required.

Hybrids of this level usually offer a variety of ports, but their usefulness is highly dependent on their location. Unfortunately, in our Latitude 13 all the main interfaces (2 USB 3.0 ports, and video output mini-DisplayPort) are located behind the keyboard dock, but not on the tablet. This means that the last few lighter and thinner than competitors like HP Envy x2 13, but, unlike them, can not be connected to an external monitor or USB-periphery in the absence of a docking station (forgotten, for example, at home or at work). Even the SD-card reader located on the docking station. On the tablet, there is only a 3.5-mm audio jack.

To connect to a wired Ethernet network adapter needed for USB (3.0 necessarily, if you want to gigabit speed) for image display, devoid DisplayPort - adapter with him to VGA, or HDMI. None of this is not supplied.

communication

In our configuration, set the wireless module Intel Wireless-AC 7265, which allows to work with Bluetooth 4.0 and networks Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g / n / ac in the range of 2.4 and 5 GHz. It works well within a radius of 15 meters from the router connection to remain stable and fast - on most apartments and offices that would be enough, but if you have a sufficiently powerful router can certainly move away and away. There is support for Wi-Di - we have not tested it, but all the necessary components - the processor, video card and Wi-Fi module from Intel - are available. In addition, the tablet can work with NFC.

Module 3G or 4G in our sample Latitude 13 not, but, as mentioned above, it is possible to put on their own or with a pre-selected configuration (Dell Wireless 5810e). This will provide an opportunity to access the Internet anywhere where there is a signal of your mobile operator.

dynamics

The dynamics of the tablet were surprisingly good: they give a rich, crisp sound, allowing even listen to music. Lacks bass, but in this case it is not very exciting.

camera

The front camera takes pictures at resolutions up to 2 megapixels and provides acceptable for Skype-quality video calls. Rear 8-megapixel camera, but for normal photos must almost studio lighting, otherwise they go dull and grainy. Outdoors photo obtained good - to remove anything in the country is quite possible, in the room, the situation is much worse. Below the pictures of both cameras is clearly not enough brightness in comparison with our camera made by Canon.

Responsible for data transfer module Wi-Fi 802.11n / ac, while at the time of sale he can only work in a standard b / g / n, and support for the latest 802.11ac will appear after updating the firmware. Card slot micro-SIM on the test specimen indicates that there are and the 3G-version Chromebooks (or, at least, the possibility of self-installation 3G-module), but official information about this modification yet.

Chromebooks ASUS Chromebook C200 is equipped with removable three-segment battery 48 Wh, from which according to the manufacturer, the device is able to work up to 11 hours. Since our test suite Battery Eater does not work with the operating system Chrome OS, verify this assertion in practice failed.

The inner surfaces of the model Dell Inspiron 3541, including edging matrix and operating panel, made of the same black rough plastic. On the one hand the color well chosen, since the user does not distract from what is happening on the screen. On the other hand, quite ordinary plastic looks too casually for use on surfaces that touch the hands of the owner will be more often.

The layout of the operating panel classic, on closer examination can be identified unless the cylindrical boss battery above the keyboard and the solid height podladonnoy panel.

Laptops: the work and relax

Back in time
History of laptops and their closest "relatives" - personal computers, it is one of the clearest examples of how unrecognizable loved by people can evolve device. Moreover, it took him less than 50 years.

Amazingly, their appearance these wonderful jazz guitarist laptops are required. Dreamer and scholar Alan Curtis Kay his activism forever earned the title "father of the laptop." Even in the distant '60s, he decided to create a portable personal computer the size of a notebook, which would be accessible and useful even to a child. Bold idea struck a chord in the hearts of his colleagues, and the development process was launched.

In 1979, before the eyes of enthusiastic scientists brought the first herald the coming era of portable laptops - GRiD Compass 1101. The novelty had a narrow specialization, because it created a space for the development of NASA. In the 80s and 90s this device used on the space shuttle astronauts.

Still, the main idea of the developers was a "laptop for everyone", and because two years later came the legendary Osborne 1, "modestly" named after its author Adam Osborne. It was the first laptop with a self-powered, launched in mass production. The main disadvantage of the device was very small monochrome display.

Just a couple of decades of hard laptops could not "pohudat" and weighed more than 5 kg. But then came the 90s, and the developers of Intel released the Intel microprocessor 80386 SL, which was invented specifically for laptops. Since then, things went smoothly, and gradually these wonderful devices have gained the familiar shape.

As can be seen, laptops began to develop in parallel with personal computers, no inferior to them, and in something and excelling. To determine which device you really need, let's look at the "chips" modern laptops are not available conventional computers.

And so can your computer?
Whatever we talked about the features, performance, practicality, one of the main factors, we are inclined to buy a laptop, is their image production. Pulling out of the bag stylish laptop, you're talking about my status business person who keeps up with the times.

Compactness. Even the largest and heaviest device of this type is immeasurably more convenient to carry around than not designed for this desktop PC. What to say about today's super-thin models who like themselves were asked to hand. Whatever you say, the opportunity to wear a neat stylish bag full computer, flick of the wrist to access all of its functions is well worth it.
Internet without wires! The vast majority of such devices has wi-fi adapter already built into the body. Thus, no matter where you were, the very first outdoor access point - and expanses of the World Wide Web at your service. And in other cases, there are a 3G-modem also supports many models "beech".
Laptop - a device such as "all-in-one." That is, then you and the computer itself, the monitor and touchpad, and keyboard. And most complete yet and mouse goes. And do not buy do not) you just unpack the device - and use them. Nice!
Say "no!", Depending on the outlet. Notebooks since first released models distinguished by the ability to work offline. And all thanks to the built-in battery, which allows even unplugged for some time to use your laptop.
The laptop is indispensable for the job. This is a great device can take with equally simple and to the office, and on a business trip. Thus, all the necessary information will always be with you.
But also on vacation there for nouta application. Advanced multimedia capabilities of these wonderful devices are enormous - from the banal music playing in the lap of nature, movie sources in the pleasant company, or playing the latest version of the popular "shooter."

Like this, is not a complete list of benefits that allow laptops, year after year otvoёvyvat its audience share from traditional PCs.

The diversity of these amazingly versatile device is amazing. Once the leading manufacturers noticed what turned out to be a necessity laptop, they tried to cover their products as much as possible audience. And for that created so many varieties of these handy devices to meet the needs of even the most demanding customers.

Laptop for every taste and color
No matter how hard the producers to make new models differ from the previous ones, and even more so, from analogues produced by competitors over the years their work has a particular classification under which somehow falls any modern laptop.

Low cost laptops. This is an extremely common type of devices, the main advantage of which - the low price. True, they have little opportunity, and low level of functional filling.
One of these models this year turned out to be from the B5030 LENOVO, one of the leaders in this market. However, this model has surprised really good performance. So, for the performance it corresponds to a modern processor, the screen has an excellent color reproduction, and for "contact with the outside world" meets a nice set of interfaces.

Middle class. Probably the most uncertain of the notebook, because clearly define their properties can not be. Among such devices across a pretty good model with a good screen size and decent performance. However, most members of this class are still not particularly powerful.
Bright representative - Aspire V3, released the flagship in this area by Acer. This model, barely hit the market, interested specialists 17.3-inch screen and excellent graphics.

Review of the 17-inch gaming notebook Acer Aspire V17 Nitro "Black Edition"

Gaming laptop Acer Aspire V17 Nitro looks like a perfectly normal office DTR-notebook. His black-and-silver finish rather surprising little thick and quiet operation than inherent gaming models aggressive design. Insight comes at a time when you get to the technical parameters or run on the sample modern game - a quad Intel Core i7, discrete graphics card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M, as well as 16 GB of RAM and a hybrid SSD + HDD storage give this level of performance, which can confound a significant part of the dedicated gaming laptops. Well, as the cherry on top of cake stands an excellent 17.3-inch IPS-screen with a resolution of 1920 × 1080 pixels and Anti-glare matte surface.

appearance
As we have already mentioned, when we first met Acer Aspire V17 Nitro surprise minimum thickness - from 17-inch gaming notebook DTR-directional subconsciously expect almost twice the thickness. In fact, the height of the housing is not such a record, it is exactly one inch, but pointed and rounded front edge to the bottom of the sidewall give your laptop the same effect of lightness, thanks to which he "floats" above the surface of the table. For the record, passport size model up 423 × 293 × 25,4 mm, weight - about 3 kg.

The top cover of the notebook is finished in black matte plastic (soft-touch NIL) with a texture in the form of a fairly deep vertical lines. Dark panel dilutes the manufacturer's logo and a thin silver panel near the hinges of the display unit. The panel is made of plastic coated with a metal, and decorated with embossed inscription Aspire V Nitro.

Lower body Acer Aspire V17 Nitro almost entirely made of softtach-black plastic. In contrast to the matte embossed cover material, the surface very quickly covered with fingerprints. However, this is unlikely to be a problem for the 17-inch laptop, the model which does not involve the use of too frequent movement from place to place.

On the bottom you can find the dynamics, moved closer to the front face and tiny hole to force a reboot of the device. Recently it took for the simple reason that the developers have decided to make your laptop battery removable. Wide strip perforation is used for air intake cooling system. Processor and a discrete graphics card provides two separate fan who can independently handle the dust using proprietary technology Acer DustDefender.

Acer DustDefender

Tapered front edge Acer Aspire V17 Nitro contains only a couple of digital microphones. Almost the entire width of trimmed silver plastic back panel is occupied by radiators cooling system. On the left face imposed optical drive, a pair of USB 2.0 connectors, and a Kensington lock hole. On the right side you can find a full-sized card reader, combined audio port, two connectors USB 3.0, video output HDMI, foldout network RJ45, pair of indicators of activity and socket adapter.

Cover Acer Aspire V17 Nitro can be easily opened with one hand despite the absence of recesses, canopies and other ancillary elements of a design.

The display unit rests on two hinges, finished all the same silver plastic "under the metal." Screen bezel is made rather wide, especially in the lower part. It is made from the same brand softtach plastic as the lower part of the body, so that when you change the angle of the screen you will constantly leave their fingerprints.

The maximum opening angle of the display is considerably higher than average rates, it is about 155 degrees. At the same time throughout the range image is equally bright and juicy, as in this notebook uses high quality matte 17.3-inch IPS-matrix with a resolution of 1920 × 1080 pixels.

Operating panel Acer Aspire V17 Nitro trimmed softtach-black plastic. In the area podladonnoy area around the keyboard and it is smooth, but near the bases of the display unit designers found it necessary to "refresh" his texture of horizontal stripes. There you can watch the silver block with an inscription Aspire V Nitro, which is approximately a centimeter towers over the rest of the surface. The power button is located on the top right corner of the keyboard, and a pair of indicators of activity that we saw in the study of the right sidewall of the housing looks its edges and on the operation panel. Both indicators are small enough to distract from the work even in a dark room and at the same time informative enough in case you need to assess the current state of the system (active or sleep mode, the process of charging the battery).

The layout of the operating panel Acer Aspire V17 Nitro typical for DTR-laptops - the developers have established a huge touchpad in the center of the main character block, resulting in terms of symmetry it is skewed to the left. All the useful area of the touchpad takes sensor, dedicated buttons are not provided, and the left and right click is performed by bending the lower corners of the panel. The choice of the touchpad surface chosen not entirely successful, as the tactile characteristics, it does not differ from podladonnoy panel. Given the fact that the touchpad is not placed exactly in the center, the user initially could not get a finger to the right place. Also note sloppy "handwritten" stroke Black Edition in the upper left corner, which in theory was to emphasize the exclusivity of this version of the laptop, but in practice it looks too unclear to him considered someone other than the owner of the work.

In addition to the availability of additional digital block island laptop keyboard backlight can boast the presence of deep red color. Adjust its brightness or turn on automatically fail, the backlight can be on or off completely, or to include a combination Fn + F9. By keyboard layout claims to be expected not found - all the buttons on their location, size and spacing of the standard buttons, arrows isolated unit for greater convenience.

functionality
Laptop Acer Aspire V17 Nitro is built on a hardware platform Intel, augmented performance of discrete graphics from NVIDIA. In the present configuration uses a top quad-core Intel Core i7-4710HQ with a base frequency of 2.5 GHz and a maximum frequency of 3.5 GHz mode Turbo Boost. Responsible for processing graphics card of "gaming" GTX-series, in this case NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M with 2GB of dedicated video memory GDDR5.

Graphics

To install the memory available two SODIMM-slot, while depending on the configuration in the laptop is set from 8 to 16 GB of RAM. In hitting on the test sample used in the unusual amount of 6 GB, assembled from two strips 2 and 4 GB from different manufacturers, which undoubtedly affected the results of performance testing. Storage system in the most accessible configurations is a hard drive capacity of 500 GB or 1 TB, the more expensive it is supplemented modifications SSD 60, 128 or 256 GB.

The real highlight of the configuration Acer Aspire V17 Nitro stands 17.3-inch IPS-matrix LG LP173WF4-SPF1 with a resolution of 1920 × 1080 pixels, a matte finish and a maximum brightness of 300 cd / m2. Triplex removable battery 4600 mAh provides up to 4 hours in power saving mode and just over an hour in the game mode.

LG P535 Notebook Review

LG has resumed sales of laptop in October 2011, presented to the public just three line devices. Perhaps the most interesting of these was the family of LG Blade, within which offers two medium format models P430 and P530 with significantly reduced dimensions due to the minimal border of the display. After just four months, the company decided to update the data model, adding to the list of advantages of the original connector USB 3.0, the technology Intel Wireless Display (Wi-Di) and improved hardware specifications.

Design
Updated models that are easy to identify on The top five in the notation (LG P435 and LG P535) look exactly the same as precursors (LG P430 and LG P530). The main motive of these laptops design - a successful combination of primary and secondary blue black.

Absolutely flat cover LG P535 notebook is finished in polished aluminum sheet bluish horizontal texture. Modestly placed in the upper left corner of the miniature logo LG's invisible from a distance in the two steps - usually the manufacturer is trying to more clearly identify your device, taking a major center of the lid (and even highlighted) logo.

Made of a typical matte plastic base housing differs unusually complex profile - apart from the standard elevation battery here can also be found in the location of the convexity of the hard drive and cooling fan. However, for predominantly stationary 15-inch model of the bottom structure is irrelevant.

Sidewall LG P535 two-color - black lower part of the body is a continuation of the basics, and blue top is integral to the operating panel.

Most connectors are placed exactly in the middle, on the left is a pair of audio ports, USB 3.0, HDMI, RJ45, D-sub and radiator cooling system. On the right side wall can find a pair of conventional USB-connectors, DVD-drive and socket charger.

Back face is free, but the front is a card reader and three white LED activity. During operation, the expected claims may arise in a dense arrangement of connectors on the left side.

Review of Alienware gaming laptop 17

The range of each major manufacturer of laptops are models designed for gaming. They set powerful processors, discrete graphics and a large amount of RAM. But apparently they do not differ from the more simple modifications, having just another equipment. But there are some brands that are paid to the issue of gaming stations (both mobile and stationary) far more attention. One of the most famous, of course, is Alienware, owned by Dell. We will talk about the new Alienware model 17, which is based on the new Intel Core processors and the fourth generation is a device for compromises impatient players.

appearance
Alienware laptops have always been famous not only powerful components, but also design features. Futuristic body, plenty of LED backlighting and logo with an alien - it should allocate the owner of the game among the bulk of the monster. Alienware 17 - a bright representative of the line, so stands out from the monotonous laptop like a spaceship near biplanes. The main material of the body according to the manufacturer - magnesium alloy and aluminum used for the cover. If the last all clear, here is a magnesium alloy clearly could not be determined - very material looks like a normal plastic. The cover has a chopped form inserted in the slot LED backlight, which is equipped with a face and logo alien. Attaches all this beauty is very tight loops, but with special diligence open the laptop with one hand still possible.

Interface connectors are totally focused on the sidewalls - rear housing is reserved for ventilation and the front stereo speakers are placed. With the exception of the rear face, all of the notebook decorated slots with LED backlight.

About the weight and dimensions of a gaming notebook with a 17-inch panel to speak, perhaps, nothing special. He's big and heavy, so acts more as a desktop replacement gaming computer that can occasionally carry on all kinds of Lan-party and a party of friends.

Approximately half of the bottom of the laptop take the vents with metal protective grids. In general, the question of ventilation solution is very true - the main opening for warm air output are at the back side and not on the left side, as they like to do many manufacturers. This means that the use of a laptop is comfortable not only right-handed, but left-handers - streams of hot air will be slowly heated hand.
interfaces
As it should be well equipped with computers, Alienware 17 has all the necessary interfaces, you may need a hardcore gamer. On the left side are placed a combined input / output HDMI, Mini DisplayPort, two USB 3.0 ports and three minijack - two separate headphone and microphone, as well as a combined headset.

Display and Sound
17.3 inch matrix with a resolution of 1920x1080 - the only point at issue in the Alienware 17. matte screen, LED-backlit, but why it was necessary to use the TN-technology - is unclear. Cheaper as an excuse is not suitable, since the laptop on the road and save the matrix would not have received. The second possible reason - already known misconception about blurring IPS-panels and their unsuitability for professional gamers. However, this bike has lost its relevance for a long time. In any case, in such a device would like to see a bright IPS-quality display, but it is not Alienware 17.

Keyboard and Touchpad
A nice feature was the Alienware 17 full-size keyboard with numeric keypad. Full-size arrow keys too, but handed down below. The top row of function keys, as expected, has a dual purpose, and the inclusion of an alternative mode by pressing Fn. Here, too much attention to detail - Fn placed next after Ctrl, so as not to embarrass accustomed to the standard layout users.

In addition to the standard keys, 17 are provided in the Alienware and four programmable buttons placed above the number pad. Running commands and macros is ensured by our pre-utility. The entire keyboard is illuminated, and it is divided into four zones, each of which has its own independent illumination.

Large touchpad case color is shifted to the left and has two buttons, set flush with the work surface. The most impressive part is the colored lights of the touchpad. Functionality of the utility responsible for setting the touchpad is also impressive. Here and adjustment of pressure sensitivity, several options to scroll the screen (including the pie with circumscribing a circular motion with your finger on the touchpad), additional technologies and features, manually changing the scroll area on the edges. But here is the lack of multi-touch overshadows all these tricks - you want corny scroll a web page with two fingers and a laptop these gestures, alas, does not understand.
Options and performance
As befits a game supercomputer, Alienware 17 sets of the most productive processor Intel Core i7 fourth generation (Haswell). Depending on the modifications it can be i7-4700MQ, i7-4800MQ, i7-4900MQ or i7-4930MX. In the role of graphics accelerator perform discrete graphics card Nvidia, on the GeForce GTX 765M c 2 GB GDDR5 in the "budget" modification to the GTX 780M c 4GB GDDR5 in the top configuration. The memory capacity can also vary from 8 to 32 GB of DDR3-1600.
With drives still serious. In the simplest most affordable modification of the hard disk drive 750 GB with a speed of 7200 rev / min. Next game is, as they say, to increase - from the hybrid drive with additional 64 GB of cache-based SSD and up to the "victory" in the form of RAID0-terabyte array of four SSD 256 GB each. This solution should provide maximum performance due to the fact that the data is broken down into blocks and are written in different media at the same time, but in terms of fault tolerance, this approach can be confusing - in case of failure of one disk, the entire system stops working.
But we got a configuration of "simpler", equipped with a quad-core Intel Core i7-4700MQ with a clock speed of 2.4 GHz, 16 GB of RAM and a discrete graphics card Nvidia GeForce GTX 770M with 3 GB of memory GDDR5. Storage drive is used Western Digital WD7500BPKT volume of 750 GB.

Notebook Review Acer Aspire V5-573

Acer has continued to improve its line of notebooks middle class. In the era of thin body manufacturer is doing everything possible to stay in the trend. Our today's hero seems to fit all of the latest trends and the wishes of users, or almost all - a kind of dream laptop. It's about the new 15.6-inch notebook Acer Aspire V5-573 platform Intel Haswell, which eliminates the need for discrete graphics for gaming. Is it a dream or a laptop so we just thought we are going to find out.

appearance
Aspire V5-573 design meets all modern trends and comply with the general style of performance notebooks Acer. Body slim and lightweight - only 21 mm and 2.2 kg. To tag a very good numbers. In the external appearance is dominated by smooth surfaces and rounded corners. The model is available in two colors - black and gray.

Laptop assembled a very high quality. The cover is made of plastic with a brushed aluminum finish under, although at first glance it seems that this metal. But what really metal - so it's working surface. The bottom of the laptop is made of rough plastic practical. The battery is not removable, which also had a positive impact on the overall stiffness of the structure.

The back of the base expands, creating a kind of a side on which the display unit is attached by means of two loops. Hinge little tugovat and to open the laptop base will have to adhere to. The opening angle is large enough to work with tribes. Given the orientation of the mobile device, this is not the last time value.

Looks a bit strange power button moved to the left edge of the notebook and made to match with the body. In addition, it is very small and does not stand out above the surface, so that at first I turned the laptop for a long time and could not find it. Designers, as for me a little overdone.
Ports and Connectors

In Acer decided to return to the circuit arrangement of ports and connectors, from which they were trying to get away a year ago, placing them on the back edge of the notebook. Although, they did it by taking some amendments. Whereas previously there were concentrated almost all nayavnye interfaces, there is the most commonly used connectors are distributed on each side - two USB 2, combo audio jack for a headset and SD-card reader. On the rear face of the model rendered ports use "stuck and forget" - jack for power adapter, connector, HDMI video output and mini DisplayPort (VGA adapter to complete), and USB 3.0, which is often used to connect various peripherals.

From wireless interfaces on board presented modules Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g / n and BT 4.0.
Keyboard and Touchpad

The keyboard is good, but with its own characteristics. Firstly - forked key Enter, which will need to get used to. And secondly - very slow speed buttons, about 1 mm, which is not always convenient typing. However, this solution has both opponents and defenders, so that's good or bad is up to you. The rest of the questions asked - it is well anchored, the substrate is not pressed, the keys are triggered quiet. The backlight is not provided.

Display and Sound

There are two versions of this laptop, different type of screen. One uses a touch display with IPS-matrix and Full HD, and the second - a conventional TN with 1366 by 768 pixels. We were just hit the second option, which, in principle, a good color rendition, but to talk about large viewing angles is not necessary. The maximum brightness is also not amazing - just 188 cd / m2, and a glossy finish on a sunny day or a bright light will blikovat.

The speaker system includes a pair of speakers located at the bottom, so that the installation will be muted laptop on a soft surface. The sound loud and clear, however, can not boast of middle- and low frequencies. For watching movies and making calls to Skype suit, but listening to music I would recommend using external speakers.

functionality
This model is due to a very thin shell is equipped with only energy-efficient Intel Core processors of the last of the fourth generation. The amount of RAM in the base is 4 GB, expandable up to 12 GB. To store the information used HDD capacity up to 1TB. For the display of graphics meets the integrated graphics Intel HD Graphics 4400 or discrete graphics card NVidia GeForce GT 750M, depending on the model.

It got us to the test sample in the basic version of equipment with a processor Core i3-4010U, clocked at 1.7 GHz with 4 GB of RAM and without a discrete graphics card. Nevertheless, the system proved to be very responsive and lack of performance I have not felt or when performing some basic tasks (word processing, watching videos, surfing the web), and in games. Naturally say that this gaming laptop is not necessary, but in the same World of Tanks can play - at medium settings about 30 fps, but at a minimum, and all the 50 fps.

Autonomous systems, too, was at a very good level. Lithium Polymer Battery capacity 3650 mAh provided by 3 hours of battery life under load, and while reading the laptop lasted the whole 9 hours. The result is a worthy ultrabook.

In my opinion, Acer Aspire V5-573, may not be the ideal laptop in its price range, but is very close to that status. Here, excellent performance, which is a device with such a thin shell can even play. The housing is also very decent. It is light, thin and not very dirty. And if you take the option to touch IPS-matrix, we get a great choice for someone who is important and autonomy, and power.

And if a couple of years ago by the acronym PC implicit assumption desktop computer (or "desktop"), today buyers increasingly prefer lightweight, compact and functional laptops.

However, in a large number of brands, models and configurations of these devices to choose optimum is not easy, because in addition to the typical characteristics of any computer (CPU type, motherboard and graphics card, RAM and hard drive, the availability of the necessary connectors, etc.) matter and additional selection criteria, which we'll cover in this article.
format

Unlike desktops, size and weight which do not significantly affect the usability format notebook is its defining characteristic. Indeed, once assembled his desktop and hide it under the table, you can just forget about his appearance, but from what size laptop you choose depend on such important features such as screen size, ergonomic keyboard and the final weight of the device.

That is why the choice of laptop should start it with you to determine the appropriate format. To date, laptops can be divided into three classes: small-format (screen diagonal 10-13 "), medium format (14- 16") and large-scale (17-19 "). We give a brief description of each of them:

However, the small size screen, keyboard and compromise relatively weak "iron" (in order to increase battery life) affect the convenience of working with them in stationary use. Pay particular attention to the battery - the longer you are away from the socket, the more autonomy you need.

Large-format (17.3 ", 18.4" and above) - the most massive and heavy laptops that are purchased for the organization of permanent jobs. Due to the solid mass and a small autonomy you do not want to move them often over long distances, but a large screen, the most comfortable keyboard (almost a complete analog desktop usual) and, as a rule, the most powerful components is quite possible to use them as a replacement for the desktop.

Summarizing, we can say that laptops with a screen diagonal of 15.6 inches today are the most common, so if you're not yet been precisely defined with the use of the model, choose a universal format.
family
To facilitate the process of selecting a buyer, almost every notebook manufacturer divides its model family - multimedia, multi-purpose, business, ultrabooks and play. And in each of these models are usually present in all formats: small-, medium- and large-scale.
Thus, as soon as you have decided on the desired screen size, it is necessary to proceed to the selection of a suitable for your needs family laptops. Each of them has its own characteristics, which we discuss below:

Typically, these laptops are buying off people who want to further emphasize its status, as well as those users who design and mobility are the defining characteristics of the laptop.

configuration

Once you have decided on the format and type your future laptop is the last and most simple step - selection of a particular hardware configuration. You can use two approaches - a meticulous study of the characteristics of modern element base of laptops or "method of the purse", which is to choose the most expensive configuration to which you have enough money.
Nobody would argue that "performance does not happen much," and if you have enough money, then selecting expensive configuration to provide themselves the most powerful processor and graphics card, hard drive, and the most extensive wide variety of communication interfaces.
However, for those who want to save money and at the same time to buy a laptop with a sufficient performance of the tasks, you should pay attention to:
     "The type of processor - now is the best choice Intel Core i5 or AMD A8, if funds are not sufficient, the Intel Core i3, Pentium or Celeron, and AMD A2 / A4;
     "Amount of RAM and hard drive - 4 GB and 500 GB, respectively;
     "Graphics Card Type - Built-in accelerator processor from Intel or AMD will save you money, and digital adapters from ATI and NVIDIA will allow to play demanding games;
     "The presence of wireless adapters - Wi-Fi module is installed in all laptops by default, but some manufacturers for Bluetooth can save;
     "Set of connectors - choose a model with the maximum number of ports USB, card reader and HDMI for connecting to LCD TVs;

     "The type of operating system - low cost notebooks are often equipped with Linux or MS-DOS. This approach can reduce the final cost of the device, making it more accessible. So if you're not willing to spend the time and effort to the study of the operating system, it would be logical to re-install the system yourself or choose a laptop with a more familiar OS family of Windows.
We hope that our paper will help you choose the perfect laptop that will suit you in all respects. Most importantly, consider your financial possibilities, the following chain of selection criteria "format-family configuration" and you become the owner of the device that will delight you for years to come and will last at least several years.
