Asus Vivobook S400CA-CA006H - 14-Inch Touch Screen Ultrabook

Posted by Unknown Kamis, 13 Desember 2012 0 komentar

Looking for a 14-inch touchscreen notebook? The Asus Vivobook S400CA-CA006H is a 14-inch version of the 11.6-inch Vivobook x202e, upgraded to Ultrabook specifications. The touchscreen feature is designed to maximize the Windows 8 operating system on board.

The Asus Vivobook S400CA has a 14-inch HD display on a 0.8-inch chassis which weighs about 4 pounds. It is powered by an Intel Core i5 3317U processor and 4 GB of RAM. With a 500 GB hard drive back-up by a 24 GB SSD cache the Asus Vivobook S400CA qualifies to be classified as an Ultrabook.

The Asus Vivobook S400CA is priced at Php35,990. It does not have any direct competition in the Philippine market right now being a 14-inch touchscreen device.

When it comes to touchscreen PC's I kind of think they be kept in the 10.1 to 12.5-inch form factors. What do you all think?

Dell XPS 13

Posted by Unknown Jumat, 20 April 2012 0 komentar

A few years ago Dell built some of the best notebooks in the market. The D-series notebooks were solid business machines which could rivaled or bested Lenovo's Thinkpads. The Dell XPS were on the cutting edge of notebook design and performance. And then, there were the amazing Dell Adamo laptops. But something happened along the way, and the Dell brand started to become stale and boring. That is about to change. With the new Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook, Dell is back.
The Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook has a 13.3-inch display, like most other of the new Intel powered Utlrabooks. Let's get three things out of the way. The Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook does not have a 1600 x 900 high resolution display like the Asus Zenbook, but a more typical 1366 x 768 display.

It also does not have a SD Card reader, unlike most of its competitors. Last, it has a mini display port instead of a more convenient HDMI port. If you can get past those three things, it may be the best Ultrabook for you.

Size. The Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook is a 13.3-inch laptop in the frame of a 12.5-inch laptop. Combined with a typical weight of of 2.99 pounds, we think this makes the Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook the most portable of the bunch.
Basic specifications. The based model comes with the following specifications:

Processor - Intel Core i5-2467M (1.6 GHz with Turbo Boost to 2.3 GHz)
Graphics - Intel HD 3000
RAM - 4 GB
Storage - 128 GB SSD
Operating System - Windows 7 Home Premium
Keyboard - Backlit
Webcam - Yes
USB 3.0 - Yes

HP Envy 14 Spectre

Posted by Unknown 0 komentar

The Spectre is a premium machine, and it's not just that HP needed something high-end to take the place of the last-gen Envy 14. This also happens to be the company's first consumer-grade Ultrabook, and it arrives at a time when there are many to choose from. Enter HP's marketing department: the outfit's touting this thing as a "premium Ultrabook" -- the kind of machine you'd choose if you wanted a 1600 x 900 IPS-quality display or an unorthodox design. For that kind of beauty, though, you're looking at $1,400 and up -- a princely cost of entry when you consider lots of similarly specced models go for $1,100 or less.

Spectre has a 14" screen but HP claims the chassis size to be more common in 13.3" laptops, which matches up if you compare it to e.g. 13" MacBook Pro (12.78" x 8.94" x 0.95"). The use of a bigger screen allows HP to use a higher resolution panel, as 1600x900 is more commonly found in 14" and 15" laptops (although there are 13.3" laptops like Sony Vaio SA and ASUS Zenbook with 1600x900). The stock configuration comes with Core i5-2467M but HP offers configurations with Core i7 ULVs as well (HP didn't list any SKUs, though).

At 3.79lb, Spectre is definitely heavier than most Ultrabooks we have seen. If you're wondering how is this still an Ultrabook, Intel requires +14" laptops to be thinner than 21mm, which translates to 0.83" - there is no weight limit. For sub-14" laptops, the height limit is 18mm (0.71"). $1399 also makes Spectre fairly expensive, or premium as HP says. The bundled software is worth over $200, but it's always a risky move to include shareware software as the end-user may not use it at all but still pays for it.

Samsung Series 5

Posted by Unknown 0 komentar

The Good:

Bright, matte display; discrete graphics; comfortable keyboard; good two-finger scrolling on touchpad.

The bad:

Size and weight is similar to mainstream non-Ultrabook laptop; more costly than its competitors; off-axis viewing could be better; some bloatware.

The bottom line:

With more features than the typical Ultrabook, the Samsung Series 5 Ultra is a versatile and attractive 14-inch laptop that justifies its higher price tag

With its AMD graphics and an optical drive, the Samsung Series 5 Ultra definitely feels like a thin-and-light laptop. Regardless of what you call it, this is a well-built notebook with mid-range performance, a comfortable keyboard and a bright, matte display. You're also unlikely to run out of ports on this machine and that optical drive is handy for DVDs and games.
