QUOTE(eugenechiuu @ Aug 28 2011, 10:11 AM) I have never used an atom or c-50.. Is it really that slow? I just need it to jot down lecture notes or view lecture slides.. I know the resolution would be a downside but just have to cope with it since it's cheap.. Rm799 is really worth it cause any normal netbooks in Uk are at least rm1000 Even after converted.. Look like a netbook might meet your requirement. In that case how about a tablet? Hehe |

Lol tablet is more expensive and I can't type fast enough with it.. I want a tablet nevertheless, but can never find a proper reason to want one... For me, netbooks are still a better choice over tablet for portble study purposes

Quick review:
-Flashy red » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « - Not as thin I expected! Due to the 6 cell battery. Yet, still thinner than my 3820tg. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « - The screen is better than I expected considering the low 180 nit brightness. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « - Keyboard is comfy but the key feel like smaller... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Sep 3 2011, 12:28 PM) Both screen in max brightness when you took the picture ? Yes, both at Max brightness. It certainly does not look dull huh?Hinge? Wobbles ? The hinge is a little easier to close and open then the 3820tg. It does shake (front and back) more if I 'poke' the screen. May be because of that, it does feel like a little loose. Contrary to 3820tg which open and close screen feel a little more tight. Now updating and downloading prime85 + furmark |
