Netbooks: The battery lasts longer now
Great stamina already had the older – generation netbook . The new set top it: The Pine Trail Netbooks kept in thinkpad t43 battery 30-45 minutes longer than comparable with previous models . The MSI Wind U135 with 48- watt-hour battery ran for Internet access via wireless just under six hours. brought the HP Mini Note with 58- watt-hour battery test on it in 8:35 hours. The Samsung N220 held out thanks to the 63- watt-hour battery even 10:04 hours.
Even more stamina showed the Asus Eee PC 1005PE : When Wi-Fi test he reached 10:19 hours, although he is only equipped with a 48- watt-hour battery. The Asus device was thus the most economical in the test. But can be the result not directly comparable with those of the other Pine Trail Netbooks : For wireless testing, the PC World is in fact the brightness of the Netbook screens to 100 cd / m². It can thus be in a normally lit room read easily . But the Asus netbook managed only a maximum of 96 cd / m². Also at the second test of the battery – dim screen the Asus netbook helped to a lush period of 6:20 hours. This test checks the PC World , as long as the Netbook , when playing a movie from the hard drive hold out. Here the image is set as light as possible : learn how to make films and photos the best impression. Until Asus released a BIOS update that gives the Eee PC 1005PE to a higher brightness, PC World , the device is therefore devalue the Pavilion DV1000 battery time.
The Samsung N220 outperformed the Eee PC 1005PE with 6:44 hours, and the HP Mini Note was 210 for six hours. But in both netbooks puts a larger battery, which makes them a little harder. The MSI Wind U135 with 48- watt-hour battery ran 4:19 hours.
Thus the new netbooks beat at games & HD movies
The Pine Trail Netbooks are therefore a bit more economical than their predecessors. Much faster they are not. The new processor Atom N450 for example, offers a little more processing power than its predecessor Atom N280 . In the tests, the 3D velocity of the new netbooks cut but twice as good as the predecessor Windows XP. But that was less in the new GMA 3150 graphics chip than 7 to Windows
Still, for 3D games and the new netbooks are far too slow. The Aero interface of Windows 7 could be the new netbooks well : it makes the Windows interface by program windows with a transparent border and shadows not only look elegant, but will in many windows open even better overview. But in the Starter Edition of Windows 7 Aero is not included .
The playback of high resolution videos overwhelmed by the way , the new netbooks. Although it is on such a device is rarely high- definition ( HD) movies to play from an external Blu -Ray drive. But the Internet is true more often on high-definition video , even with Youtube. Those who absolutely need HD to the netbook , it must be with the Minis – Ion graphics from Nvidia attack , which in 3D and HD are stronger than the Pine Trail representative. However, the ion netbooks running on battery power much shorter.
The HP Mini Note 210 was the fastest of the new netbooks. In it lies a hard drive that operates at 7200 revolutions per minute. All other netbooks use a hard drive with 5400 rpm. The HP netbook brought in some tests a small rate increase , which occurred at the expense of the duration.
