HP Mini 311- Review

Posted on January 12th, 2010 | by admin

With the popularity of netbooks that was initially spearheaded by Asus, Hewlett-Packard has since joined the foray and came up with its own entry into the competition: the HP Mini 311.

 

Like all other netbooks, the HP Mini 311 is designed solely to be a mobile computer platform. In order to qualify as such, a netbook must be small and light. However, it also must have the necessary functionalities that the user will need like connectivity to the Internet and raw processing power that will allow him to run programs necessary for graphic and video editing as well as basic applications.

 

Most people will probably think that functionality will be partly sacrificed because of the available space for components inside the netbook, but that is not the case with the HP Mini 311.

If you are in the market for a smaller-than-average notebook, one that has the right mix of portability, classy appearance and performance capabilities to allow you to surf the internet and work on simple office tasks, you might want to consider the HP 2133 Netbook. Although it is priced a bit higher than most of its competition, the 2133’s build, quality and elegant chassis make it look like a premium-priced notebook.

 

Who will find this notebook usefull?

At first glance, the device appears to be targeted for businessmen. But the HP 2133 also holds a certain attraction for students. Its most appealing aspect, many users agree, is its keyboard, which utilizes full-sized keys. This facilitates typing beyond short notes and emails as long reports, theses and the like can be handled with the same comfort that a desktop allows.

HP Mini-Note 2140 – Review

Posted on January 5th, 2010 | by admin

HP-mini-2140

We ranked the HP Mini-Note 2140 as number two on our list of Top 5 Netbooks of 2009. Targeted for the business user who prefers the advantages of a subnotebook, the Mini-Note 2140 won us over with its ingenious metal alloy chassis made of a combination of aluminum and magnesium that gives it extra rigidity and the ability to withstand the regular abuse that comes with mobile computing. It does have features that have become standard fare with netbooks – such as the Intel Atom 270 processor, 1 GB of RAM, 160 GB of disk space and a 10.1-inch display.

 

The extras that caught our attention were the spill-resistant and near-full-sized keyboard and the accelerometer feature which shuts of the hard drive during a fall to prevent damage. There’s also an ExpressCard slot that offers expansion possibilities usually found north of standard netbook fares, and an 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity.

 

The 10-inch screen on the Mini-Note 2140 is usually met with mixed reactions. Some say it is nice and large but there are those who would complain about its lack of resolution – only 1024 x 576; which requires more frequent use of the touchpad as not everything is immediately displayed on screen as they normally would in a larger screen.
