This laptops main credibility is its battery life even pushed to its limits it can manage up to four hours which numerous laptops cannot even manage in general daily activities and even though it may 1.7kg it certainly isn’t the heaviest or the biggest laptop to carry thanks to its relatively small dimensions of 29.8 x 22.5 x 2.9cm. Within these dimensions is incorporate a great 12.1 inch screen that is bright, crisp and boasts excellent colour.

However, it is not all good news. The keyboard is sluggish yet the keys do provide a textured finish which provides again adds to the more premium feel.

It’s daily performance is decent and is excellent for web surfing and word processing and its 3D power is mediocre and therefore can handle some basic photo editing software. With a 320GB hard drive to store those photos in and still be left with space this is certainly a laptop that you may wish to carry around with you. However, even at a great and comfortable size this laptop does not feature an optical drive and therefore an external CD drive will have to be added to your budget.

Overall it is certainly a compact laptop with a great battery life and a mediocre performance. Nonetheless, it is more than satisfactory for the price.
