Latest Laptop Reviews

Toshiba need little effort when it comes to making a sale for laptops today. They are an icon in the laptop industry and surely it needs little introduction and elaboration. Having seen the popularity of Apple’s very stylish but none-too-light MacBook, other manufacturers have got on the 13.3-inch laptop bandwagon; with, it has to be said, varying degrees of success. Toshiba’s foot-hold in this market sector is the Satellite U300 series.

Toshiba’s Satellite U300-134 should certainly stir things up in the 13.3-inch notebook arena as it offers stylish looks, a pretty decent feature set and reasonable battery life.

Asus has slowly made its way as one of the alternative laptops today and depending on the purpose of wanting a laptop, this is perhaps among the alternative choices when it comes to mobile computing today.

The Asus M51 is a nice consumer notebook with good performance, decent port selection, and a solid graphics card option for gaming. Asus has clearly risen to the challenge of creating an attractive general use laptop in an attempt to attract a wide range of consumer laptop shoppers.

Another of HP’s winners, it is a full HD laptop, capable of attaining the full 1,920×1,080 resolution. Deemed as an ideal replacement for an ailing desktop, it has a crisp and bright display screen at 16 inches is truly a sight to see and coupled with the BluRay optical drive, it makes movie viewing a breeze. Loaded with a 2.26 Gz processor with Intel’s Core 2 Duo P800 processor and 4GB’s of ram it it fast, though not as fast as people would expect it to be with that processing power contained within. External devices can be easily connected with a FireWire, HDMI, and d-Sub connector for those cameras and external display devices. It does sport quite a slick finish that is quite childish to some and the ultra-glossy finish tends to be prone to finger smudges and other greasy stuff as you much away and continue to blog or finish your report that was due a few hours ago.

As with the many brands, this laptop comes in many models so we’ll be doing a general review of the overall feature. For one, it has a very hygienic keypad coating that uses silver ions to kill bacteria (considering the crazy things we do with our laptops, that’s a very good idea). Samsung hasn’t skimped on styling with a shiny gloss finish on the display cover that shifts to deep red making it a thing of beauty. Powered by an Intel Core 2 Duo running at 2GHz with 4 GB of ram with a video card from the same manufacturer, an Intel GMA X4500HD combined in the GM45 Express Chipset. The optical drive is LightScribe capable and a hard drive that can range from 120 to 320 GBytes. [Read more →]

Toshiba has always been among the top choices when it comes to mobile computing choices. It has been tested and is a known brand in the laptop industry and chances are this new model, the Toshiba Satellite A305 will not be far from being another hot commodity for techie freaks today.

The Toshiba Satellite A305 is a redesign of the older A205, vastly improving the look and feel of the notebook, as well as adding the incredibly durable Fusion finish. While some of the lower body looks similar to the older notebook, everything from the waistline up has changed to a sleeker, softer, and glossier feel.

As far as Hewlett Packard is concerned, not many people gave it a change to survive the notebook industry and was better off focusing on their top quality printers which is preferred in the market. Apparently, they are not yet giving up and this is proven with their continued contributions towards mobile computing today.

Overall, the HP Pavilion dv9700t is terrific. Any junkies fixated on high-end gaming or intense graphics/editing might find this computer lacking some muscle. For everybody else, it combines power, beauty, speed and solid design at a cost that can’t be beat.
