Samsung R780 Battery

The Galaxy Tab 10.1v has two cameras installed for snapshots, video recordings or video telephony. The primary camera is the 8 megapixel webcam on the case's flipside. It has an auto focus and is supported by an LED flash. Samsung R780 Battery

The corresponding app offers a big live image and many settings. For example, various white balance settings, color effects or scenario modes are available. The picture's quality is impressive, whereas the digital zoom soon finds its limits. Less expensive digital cameras with optical zoom for under 100 € have a clear advantage here and in performance. Samsung AA-PB9NC6B

A nice feature is the focus modes, with which macro pictures can be made, for example. The camera also proves to be generous in making videos and allows recordings in 1080p (1920x1080 pixels, Full HD). However, lower resolutions (720p and a special format for YouTube) are also available depending on the intended use.Samsung AA-PB9NC6W

The front camera is located over the screen and for use in landscape mode. The lens excels most netbooks with a resolution of 2 megapixels and supplies an adequate picture quality at the same time. All in all, a good combination, that the newer Galaxy Tab 10.1 to be released this month doesn't have. Samsung AA-PB9NC6W-E

Small box, small scope of delivery. This describes the scope of delivery ex-factory well. In addition to the tablet, you'll only find the matching power adapter with a German power plug, a USB cable, earbuds in different sizes and the usual documentation. We would have hoped for at least a cover or bag for transportation at a price beyond 400 euros. Besides Samsung, many third parties offer the omitted extras and have to be bought separately.Samsung AA-PB9NS6B

Samsung grants a warranty period of 24 months on the tablet ex-factory and is thus on a good average for a consumer device.Samsung P210

Operating the tablet is done exclusively via the touchscreen and the virtual QWERTZ keyboard, whose appearance manner can be altered in system settings. It appears automatically when needed ex-factory. Samsung P210-BA01

The keyboard is sufficiently sized with a key size of 15x13 millimeters in horizontal use, respectively 9x10 millimeters in vertical use, and you quickly accommodate to the input devices. A divided keyboard, as Microsoft presented in Windows 8, would generally increase the ergonomics though. But there are a few extensions for this on the Android market. A look into this area would be worthwhile, in our opinion.Samsung P210-BA02

Samsung P210-BS01 The buttons underneath the screen disappear with Android 3.0 and only the power button and volume control are maintained as haptical components. The actual controls for the operating system are in the lower status bar and allow jumping to a higher level (e.g. from a program to the home screen) or going a step lower. The third icon in the trio opens a multi-tasking sidebar that allows fast switching among opened applications. Other haptical or virtual buttons aren't needed due to the modified operating system.Samsung P210-BS02

Various sensors simply are a must for tablets. For example, a gyroscope that detects movement in three directions and allows automatic rotating of pictures or game control. Switching from landscape to portrait mode is quite fast, but there is a short waiting time. Samsung P210-BS04

The gyroscope works without delay in games. Among others, a digital compass and brightness sensor also belong to the sensors. The latter is hidden beside the front camera and enables the automatic screen brightness control depending on the ambient conditions.Samsung P210-BS05

10.1 inches: 1280x800 pixelsSamsung uses a 10.1 inch screen with a diagonal of 25.6 centimeters and high-gloss layer for the image rendering. The tablet is within the usual range with a native resolution of 1280x800 pixels in a 16:10 format. Samsung P210-Pro P8400 Padou

Alike the Apple iPad 2, Samsung also uses an IPS screen. This technology makes itself noticeable especially in view of viewing angle stability, which we deal with later on. Connecting an external display isn't directly possible since there is no port and thus a corresponding adapter for the 30 pin connector on the device's bottom would be the best solution.Samsung P210-XA01

State of the art LEDs are responsible for the illumination. We will look at their performance closer with the tool, Gossen Mavo Monitor. The screen that Samsung has selected is impressive with a maximum brightness of 314 cd/m2 and a similar average. Another bonus point is the low brightness deviations and the resulting good illumination rate of 92 percent.Samsung P408

The other measurements confirm the up to now positive picture of the screen. The black value of 0.39 cd/m2 is low and the contrast convinces. Together with a good focus and pleasing colors, it has the perfect requirements for rendering movies or games. Samsung P410

We have to omit rating the reproducible color spectrum due to the operating system. In view of the tablet's price, it is likely only suitable to an extent for photographer's image control. However, only the ICC profile could show this.Samsung P46

Samsung P460 The screen's good illumination is an advantage in outdoor use, whereas the high-gloss surface is a strong adversary for this. Reflections can be seen in maximum brightness and with an indirect light source, but the device can still be used to a certain extent. Direct sunlight is also this device's weak point and the content becomes illegible. A possible solution would be matt display protection foils which can be bought separately.Samsung P460-44G

The viewing angle stability is impressive thanks to the use of an IPS screen. Rendering on the horizontal and vertical plane remains stable even in narrow angles and is only marred by a slight brightness deterioration in the maximum. We couldn't determine an inverting or fading of the reference picture.Samsung P460-44P

The popular Nvidia Tegra 2 (Tegra 250) System-on-a-Chip (SoC) based on an ARM processor works inside the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1v. The power of 1 GHz is distributed on two cores with this solution (dual core), which is supported by a 1 MB cache. Samsung P460-AA01

RF711 laptop

Only the power adapter and battery are found in the small accessories box. The printed documentation has been replaced by a document on the desktop. Recovery DVDs have been replaced by the according partitions on the hard disk for some time already.acer travelmate 2480 battery

Samsung grants a 12 month international warranty for the RF711 laptop. In addition to that, a 24 month, flexible service is also included. That, however, only applies to Germany.apple a1060 battery

Due to the more generous spatial relations that a 17 inch notebook has to offer,apple a1022 battery it's easy for manufacturers to install a large keyboard including a number pad. Consequently, Samsung has also treated the RF711 to a full size keyboard with 15x15 millimeter keys. It is a single key layout with a key gap of about 4 millimeters. This facilitates typing on the keyboard and increases accuracy tremendously.apple a1079 battery

The typing feel of the used keyboard is also very pleasant. The key drop isn't too long and has been given a crisp pressure point so that the keyboard supplies sufficient feedback. In addition, the keyboard's noise isn't very loud while you're typing and doesn't at all sound clattery.apple a1045 battery

There is also a small bar with additional hot keys and the power button above the number pad. WLAN can be enabled or disabled, the volume increased, decreased or even completely muted via these control buttons.apple a1078 battery

The installed touchpad has a diagonal of 105 millimeters and is thus quite big. The touchpad has a slightly corrugated surface. Both mouse keys are visibly separated from the touchpad by a small bar. apple a1148 battery

The mouse keys' drop has turned out very short and the stroke is also stiffer than known from other mouse keys. Although the commands are implemented accurately and reliably, a few users will first have to get used to these keys. Moreover, the keys varied in height in our test sample.apple a1008 battery

The touchpad allows very good and precise navigation. There's no reason for complaint here. Multi-touch is also possible with the touchpad and didn't cause any problems in our tests.apple a1039 battery

Samsung builds in a 17.3 inch sized screen with LED backlight and reflective surface as the display. The LED display, named SuperBright by Samsung, is supposed to provide for especially sharp pictures and brilliant colors. apple a1057 battery

The black bars in many movies rendered from DVDs and BluRays on the top and bottom display edges are omitted due to the 16:9 format. This naturally also contributes to multimedia entertainment. apple a1185 battery

The display has an HD+ resolution of 1600x900 pixels and thus is between the HD Ready resolution of 1366x768 pixels and the Full HD resolution of 1920x1080 pixels.apple a1175 battery Many multimedia fans will ask themselves why Samsung hasn't installed a Full HD display to start with. This would have been the most reasonable solution in connection with the BluRay drive.apple a1189 battery

The backlight supplies a very bright picture in the Samsung RF711.apple a1008 battery Samsung hasn't exaggerated with the name "SuperBright". The display's maximum brightness is 285 cd/m2 and the average brightness is still 271 cd/m2. Thus, the laptop is very far in the front in the brightness rating. Only very few models accomplish the leap beyond the 300 cd/m2 mark (for example, the Apple MacBook Pro 13 inch 2011).apple a1061 battery

The display is illuminated quite evenly with 88 percent. However, the black value suffers under the high brightness and as a result the contrast, as well. A black value of 1.61 cd/m2 is fairly high and lowers the maximum contrast considerably. apple a1080 battery

As expected, this doesn't turn out very high with 177:1. We noticed that the notebook automatically reduces the brightness as soon as it's unplugged from the mains and is in battery mode during the test. The maximum brightness in the display's center therefore sinks from 285 cd/m2 to 236 cd/m2. Consequently, the display looses 18% of its brightness.12" apple powerbook g4 battery

The display isn't able to cover the entire Adobe RGB color spectrum and the color reproduction is rather middling even in comparison with other laptops.15" apple powerbook g4 aluminum battery The Samsung RF711's screen doesn’t even stand a chance against the latest 17 inch MacBook Pro or the HP Env17-1190eg. When the Samsung R711's display is compared with that of the Samsung R730, you'll see that both displays bid almost equal rates.15" apple powerbook g4 titanium battery

4430s-XU013UT

Balancing for business. HP’s latest laptop in the ProBook S-series aims to balance form, function and specifications for professional users on a budget. Does it combine these demands into a solid business laptop?acer aspire 5100 battery

It’s always hard to be a business laptop. Unlike their counterparts on either end of the cost-value spectrum, business laptops usually have to navigate an uneasy balance between cost and features. acer aspire 5920 battery

After all, users might expect lower specs from a 10.1-inch netbook or extra weight on a 17-inch desktop replacement, but when a laptop falls right in between, users can be difficult to please (it can’t be too heavy or have low specs or short battery life or…).acer aspire 5050 battery

For consumers, laptops such as the HP ProBook 4430s are a perfect example of this dilemma. Touting a 14-inch display and a starting price of $579 USD, the ProBook 4430s has its sights set towards budget-conscious business users who don’t want to be shortchanged on features or aesthetics. Can it pass the test? Read on to find out.acer aspire one battery

Visually, the ProBook 4430s is fairly minimalistic. Like the rest of HP’s ProBook line, the 4430s features brushed aluminum on the keyboard and most of the display. The combination of greys and black throughout the ProBook 4430s’ chassis gives it a sharp, if unassuming appearance.acer aspire 5670 battery

Besides lending the ProBook 4430s aesthetic appeal, the metal keyboard deck also provides extra durability. The brushed aluminum easily resists smudges or fingerprints and is surprisingly dense. Even after applying moderate pressure to the keyboard’s palm rests, the ProBook 4430s’ body provided little give.acer aspire 9800 battery

The laptop’s display is constructed in a similarly straightforward fashion. As with notebooks such as Apple’s MacBook line, the ProBook doesn’t rely on any hinges to secure the display to the rest of the computer when it’s folded up, which makes it much easier to open. acer aspire 5100 battery

Additionally, the display relies on seven black rubber stoppers to keep it distanced from the keyboard deck. The stoppers are spaced out well enough to be relatively unobtrusive and set against the display’s black plastic trim, they’re even harder to notice.acer aspire 5101 battery

In a nice touch for users fond of keeping coffee or other drinks close by, the ProBook 4430s also touts a spill-resistant keyboard – a layer of mylar film keeps liquid contained within the keyboard and away from any components that could be damaged.acer aspire 3610 battery

Additionally, users interested in doing upgrades by themselves will find much to like in the 4430s. On the laptop’s underside, the battery installation hinges also hold the back cover in place. acer travelmate 8204wlmi battery

Once you release these hinges, the back cover comes off as a single unit, which gives you access to the entire motherboard, including the hard drive and RAM bays. If you want to customize your 4430s’ internal components, having a screwdriver free installation process is always a plus.acer travelmate 8200 battery

Elsewhere on the laptop’s chassis, though, it’s easy to see where cost-conscious decisions were made. The ProBook 4430s bottom, display casing and side all rely on varying styles on plastic, though this isn’t necessarily a downside - along the display and side of the computer, the dark grey trimming pairs nicely with the rest of the computer’s color scheme. acer travelmate 2420 battery

The laptop’s underside does rely on the same thin grade of plastic that’s typically found on budget-grade laptops, which doesn’t provide the best durability – portions of the bottom case flexed considerably when we applied light amounts of pressure.acer ferrari 5000 battery

Beyond this, though, we had few issues with the ProBook 4430s’ build quality. It’s solidly constructed and aesthetically pleasing, but for obvious reasons, we’d avoid having the laptop take too big of a drop.acer aspire 5920 battery

The ProBook 4430s carries a surprisingly full-featured set of ports for mobile connectivity. Besides standards such as VGA and HDMI ports, the laptop also touts an ExpressCard slot, a single USB 3.0 port and, inexplicably, an RJ-11 jack on certain models. On the ProBook 4430s’ chassis, generous spacing is provided in between each port to prevent excessive cable clutter. acer aspire 7520 battery

If you’ll frequently be plugging multiple types of devices into the ProBook’s USB ports, though, space can be tight. Plugging two iPod USB cables into a pair of USB ports left virtually no extra space – thumb drives or larger USB-based devices will definitely have to be divided between the pair of USB ports on the opposite side of the laptop.acer aspire 5610 battery

Along with expected Ethernet and 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi compatibility, the ProBook also features support for Bluetooth 3.0-based devices. A hotkey on the upper right-hand corner of the keyboard dock also allows you to automatically enable or disable the laptop’s Wi-Fi and Bluetooth receivers.acer aspire 5050 battery

Users can also boot into HP’s QuickWeb, a Linux-based instant-on application that provides access to a web browser,acer travelmate 6292 battery email and other assorted utilities. QuickWeb’s user interface can take some time to get used to – with its reliance on widgets for services such as Twitter and CNN, the general experience feels closer to operating a mobile device – but the application works extremely well. acer aspire 3680 battery

We were able to boot into QuickWeb and hop online in less than a minute. Additionally, setting up our wireless network credentials only required us to open a simple configuration window. Business users operating under a tight deadline will likely find much to like within QuickWeb.acer travelmate 2480 battery
