Samsung Q1 Ultra A110: Extra Slim and Compact UMPC

The world of ultra mobile PC (UMPC) was dominated by companies like Taiwanese manufacturer Asus, soon Samsung decided to jump onboard and tap this new market by launching the Q1 in 2006. The Q1 drew heavy criticism for being overpriced and relatively underpowered. Samsung soon realised its folly and after careful evaluation and research launched the Samsung Q1 Ultra A110.

Updating the ultra mobile to run on Intel processor from the A110 series it registers a speed of 800 MHz. This newly designed chip is of the low voltage variety and consumes less power. The Samsung Q1 Ultra A110 features 1 GB of DDR2 RAM. It has a 7 inch LED backlit WSVGA screen with a maximum pixel resolution of 1024 x 600. The updated screen is brighter and delivers richer images. This sleek looking machine has a set of QWERTY keys on one side and YUIOP keys on the other. A joystick type 8-way direction button features on both sides and controls the cursor. The spilt keys are a welcome addition though the small Blackberry styled keys are not a great feature for people with larger fingers. A 0.03 mega pixel camera has been integrated into the UMPC for video conferencing purposes, while a 1.3 mega pixel camera has been placed at the back to for clicking photos on the go. This UMPC offers 60 GB of hard disk storage space which seems relatively okay. It offers Ethernet connectivity, 2.0 Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connection that enable you to log on to the net even while on the move. Two 2.0 USB slots and a 2-in-1 card reader appear on the side of the UMPC. The inbuilt speakers are tolerable though not the best thing to resort to while using it as an entertainment platform, instead put in a pair of decent headphones to get better sound quality. Windows Business Vista operates the Q1 though the inherent quality of the Windows OS to render any PC slow makes the recent upgrades in the chip rather useless. The six-cell battery pad of the 690 gram weighing device increase the battery life from about 4 hours to 6 hours.

This ultra mobile PC tries to improve the festering problems from the earlier model and does so with the inclusion of a keyboard and a brighter screen but due to the burdening Windows Business Vista the underpowered performance nuisance still exists.

Elonex OneT Pink: Very Unique and Portable Webbook

Sometimes all you need is a fairly basic computer that meets the dailyrequirements. The OneT is a relatively simple portable webbook from Elonex and comes as a predecessor to the innovative ‘One’ notebook.

This webbook has the exterior done in a clamshell design and is available in a range of bright colours. Powered by an Elonex built chip that registers a clock speed of 400 MHz and a 2 GB SSD RAM its speed is relatively low in comparison to the blazing speed offered by most laptops nowadays. The slow processing speed means that Microsoft Windows Operating Systems can’t be used on the computer. Nevertheless it comes pre-loaded with a version of Linux that has been tailored for the OneT. The Elonex Onet Pink ultra mobile PC features a small 7 inch screen with a maximum resolution of 800 x 400 pixels. The screen delivers a very decent playback and due to the fact that there is no dedicated graphics card onboard the images displayed lack vivid contrast and rich detail. The XIP suite on it features a word processor and a spreadsheet that are compatible with Office 2003. It uses a customised e-mail program and Mozilla Firefox has been put in it for surfing the web. Users can connect to the net using the Wi-Fi or through the Ethernet (cable). The built-in speakers are not great and using a pair of good headphones with this is a better option. It has an old version of Flash this concurrently means that many new sites that require the new flash version will not play on it. Even though the size of the keyboard is sufficient the amount of space offered on this mini-notebook is not. However it has 3 USB ports and a SD memory card slot that allows you to store more data. At about 650 grams this is quite light and a very basic laptop.

The company offers a discount to people from the education sector. Unlike its brightly coloured, extremely conspicuous exterior design the interiors are not up to expected standard, but for students on the go this could prove to be the best bet around.

Hewlett-Packard HP G70-120EA (NG503EA#ABU): Reliable Low Cost Notebook

Performance and reliability are two key elements that Hewlett Packard continues to improve on in each product. The core development is always focused on the speed, delivery and soundness of the machine. The Hewlett-Packard G70-120EA is another performance-oriented laptop from HP. Almost all of HP’s laptops have a robust, solid and a conventional design. The same process has been infused into the G70-120EA business laptop making it durable and relatively reliable.

Powered by a 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo T5800 processor and a 3 MB DDR 2 SDRAM this laptop has more than sufficient computing power to tackle basic processes. The 160 GB free memory provided on this may seem like ample storage space for movies, music, images or other business related data. However in this day and age when developers are pushing the limits and increasing space storage dramatically, HP should follow suit and probably increase the capacity of its hard drive. The 17 inch WXGA+ TFT active matrix screen is a sheer delight as it brings to life rich colours and vivid details. The 1440 x 900 resolution capacity makes the images crisper and sharper. It comes pre-loaded with Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium definitely makes the experience as user-friendly as possible. It comes equipped with 3 USB slots and 5-in-1 card reader that greatly increases the connectivity. The HDMI connector offered is a great option only if you have an HD television. The WLAN onboard to wirelessly connect to the net is a great feature though it has become a standard with most devices now. The Hewlett Packard HP G70-120EA notebook also features a webcam with an integrated microphone for video chatting on the go. The NVIDIA GeForce 9200M GE video graphics card increases the graphics tremendously. It comes equipped with a Blu-Ray DVD±R/RW Drive. Although the eject button is placed in such a manner that it makes opening the drive a tad bit difficult. Driven by a 6 cell lithium ion battery the power back-up is decent enough.

The most remarkable aspect that needs to be mentioned is the capacity of the laptop to remain relatively cool even though it might be running heavy games or programs. All-in-all an efficient, performance-based, reliable and durable laptop that fulfils most requirements.
