Advan Deskbook D5D-55132

2011-08-21T10:57:00.000-07:00

Advan Deskbook D5D-55132 - In addition to practical and concise, Advan Deskbook offers efficient use of electrical power. Maximum, this device uses only 65 watts of power alone. Advan D5D-55 132 Deskbook offers decent performance for being able to run high-definition video formats smoothly. But do not expect more if you want to play the latest games. Despite its simple feature, the presence of WiFi and Ethernet can be a good choice for connecting to a network at home, office and even for the cafe. The price offered is competitive enough for an AIO device.

Advan also helped enliven competition in the segment of the PC All-In-One (AIO), by presenting a series Deskbook D5D-55 132. This series offers a practical and easy. AIO's design makes it easy to be placed on a table space or even small. Deskbook D5D-55 132 children assembled by the use of strict supervision in order to compete with some of the brands outside.

As the product PC All-In-One (AIO), Advan Deskbook appear "normal" physically. This AIO functionality is more asserted than design. Screen that integrates with the speaker to impress her "fat" not to mention the side and rear that appear somewhat inflated.

Deskbook itself is a combination of desktop and notebook functionality. Function represented by a design notebook that blends between the components of the monitor (and WiFi / optical form of DVD-RW driver).

Advan Deskbook is armed with a fairly decent processor is an Intel Dual Core E5500 with 2.8 GHz speed (because there are a few AIOs that use the Intel Atom processor). The use of memory with a capacity of 1 GB DDR3 Our view somewhat "responsibility".

Fortunately, thanks to the flexibility of the Intel G41 chipset, these components can be upgraded. Only the use of design modules rather inconvenient for it. You must disassemble the entire rear casing instead permodul components.

Relying on the onboard graphics chip, this device is only capable of running a variety of the latest games in low resolution. Nevertheless, his ability to run high-definition video format is quite good. Proof, the video can be displayed smoothly without a hitch. Used as a monitor measuring 15.6-inch screen that can display a resolution of 1360x768 pixels. With the use of LED technology, you'll get to watch high definition video with ease.

Advan Deskbook using a circulation-based heat waster a lot of the lattice. This does make it look "cool". Only the grille at the top of the vulnerable conceded something like dust or splashing water. So be careful when cleaning it. A somewhat strange, in the middle of the display device is attached microphone, not the webcam as the device generally.

Testing Results
Thanks to the combined use of Dual Core processors and DDR3 memory, D5D Deskbook is able to show better performance than Intel's Atom processor. His ability to run high-definition video formats are also good though only powered by an onboard graphics chip.

Dell Vostro 3400 Best Quality for Personal [Review]

2011-08-21T10:54:00.000-07:00

Dell Vostro 3400 Best Quality for Personal [Review] - This product is a mid-end model with a specification that can be customized according to user needs. However Dell Vostroo 3400 was sufficient as a business notebook that prefer the complete facilities and support applications to support readiness. The combination of specs and features offered by Dell Vostro 3400 makes a mid-end notebooks are ideal for the businessman who prioritize facilities.

In addition to Lenovo and HP, Dell became the producer who is also aggressively penetrate the corporate market with a very varied product. For the SME or SMB, we know the series as one of the mainstay of Dell's Vostro is present in many versions. In this year, emerging model of Vostro 3000. Well Vostro 3000 series is proved to have many versions of the difference lies in the main components such as processors, display, storage, and graphics chips.

We tried this myself a Vostro 3400 series based on Intel Core i5-450m are classified as middle class. Vostro 3400 itself is available in a choice of Intel Core and Core-i3-i5 with the alternative between the Intel HD graphics and the GeForce 310M. This is intentional Dell that consumers can decide for yourself which is suitable for running their business activities. Clearly, this series uses a 14 "is more ideal to open a spreadsheet application or play a movie than using a 13.3".

Design Vostro 3400 was impressed by the formal but still attractive curves and body parts that seem modern. When the cover is opened the screen, you'll see the layout of the keyboard and touchpad are conventional but is actually a touch that makes it stiff. Dell's also adding amenities typical fingerprint found on business notebooks.

Although intended for business users, multimedia facilities are also included Dell via the existence of multimedia shortcut at the top of the keyboard. These shortcuts can be accessed with a stylish touch.

Connectivity Support in the Vostro 3400 is quite complete, including ExpressCard. This makes this product suitable for business users who want all ready to connect. Even a slot for a SIM card that utilizes cellular data connection lines also have been prepared in the battery compartment (although this facility is counted optional).

One thing odd is the use of 3 GB of main memory. The amount of RAM is composed of a piece of 2 GB of DDR3 RAM and a 1 GB DDR3 RAM chip. Generally, the notebook contains RAM 2 GB, 4 GB, and so on that is not an even multiple? Maybe this composition is one trick to make the Dell Vostro 3400 is more competitive prices.

Aware that its hardware specs are similar to products of competitors, Dell does not forget the support of the application and after-sales service. In terms of applications, they provide support for backing up data, accessing multi-touch gesture, creative programs with a webcam, and set the security of the DigitalPersona fingerprint.

Although sometimes users are less concerned with this application, we advise you to learn it. The reason is, will the many benefits that you never expected.

Testing Results
The performance difference between Core i5-450m 2.4 GHz in the Vostro 3400 turned out to be thin at odds with the Core i5-460M 2.53 GHz on Asus U36J (see table). Unfortunately for business graphics rendering, which rely on Vostro 3400 Intel HD is still too slow. In addition, the 5000 mAh battery is also classified as normal if not converted into economic mode.

Review D-Link DNS-323 with Spec Quality

2011-08-21T10:50:00.000-07:00

Review D-Link DNS-323 with Spec Quality - Though quite old, D-Link DNS-323 has a feature that is still reliable today. NAS D-Link DNS-323 is actually not a new NAS products. NAS is actually been circulating for some time. But with prices that are affordable and feature a pretty, feels this NAS can still compete with the new NAS-NAS on the market today. What features are offered? How is performance? Check out our reviews below.

D-Link DNS-323 is a network attached storage (NAS) which has a size that is not too large. NAS has dimensions of 10.1 x 19.8 x 12.7 cm. NAS has the appearance of a fairly simple but handsome look thanks to black color in all its parts. The material used is also quite good in the form of aluminum is quite thick.

On the front there is a plastic cap that covers the hard drive space. When the plastic lid is opened, there is a small hidden button which is the power button. This button is placed inside that are not easily moved by accident. But that means you have to unscrew the plastic prior to turning on or off this NAS. Above these buttons, there are two blue LED lights.

NAS D-Link DNS-323 is able to accommodate a maximum of two hard drives. Drive bays on the NAS is not equipped with rails and lock it was rather difficult for users to install the hard drive and confirm it is securely attached. When you first use it, we had experienced difficulties because one of the hard drive is not plugged in securely.

Looking to the back, D-Link DNS-323 has one small fan to help remove heat. Then there are two plastic levers that are useful to help remove the hard drive addition there is a USB port and one LAN port that supports gigabit connections.

D-Link DNS-323 is able to accommodate two hard drives with a maximum capacity of up to 1 TB per disk (total 2 TB). That number still seems big enough for now. Configuring the hard drive that can be done is JBOD, RAID0 and RAID1. D-Link DNS-323 has a default application that is useful to help perform the initial configuration of this NAS. Further configuration can be done through a web control panel.

When accessed via a web control panel and login, the first D-Link DNS-323 will detect the hard drive for you and offer to be doing prosews formats as well as configure the hard disk to be used. You can choose configuration RAID0, RAID1, and JBOD. If you want to configure it first, you may have to enter Skip to the main control panel.

The main page of control panel consists of several menu located on the right and up. You can set the network settings such as the NAS IP address, DHCP server, and others. In addition you can also create folders for each user and set the quota save each folder. Also available other features such as FTP server, iTunes server, and BitTorrent.

Then what about performance? To determine its performance, we tried to do the test with two Western Digital hard drive and test its speed on each configuration.

NAS is relatively fast during the format in any configuration, either JBOD, RAID0 or RAID1. NAS has only one choice of file system, that is EXT2. Regarding speed, the D-Link DNS-323 is quite normal, even tend to be slow. Read and write speeds generated by the NAS is in the range of 15 MB / s to 26 MB / s.

LG Flatron E1941 Review and Specs

2011-08-21T10:44:00.000-07:00

In the spirit of Go Green, the latest series from LG monitor has a lower power consumption compared to the same class of products. Although only armed with a VGA connection, the LG Flatron E1941 still has its own appeal. LG ability to cut power consumption in monitor product deserves thumbs up. Reduction of power consumption, especially for the unit lights the screen does not affect the display quality. Monitor still manages to look bright even though the levels are fairly low brightness settings.

One reason for the use of transition from CCFL backlight to LED monitors to reduce the power consumption is high. But for Motorola, the use of LEDs alone seems still not enough to produce LCD monitors that are environmentally friendly, especially when viewed from the side of power.

Flatron E1941 are present in our lab is one of the variants with the smallest screen size of the whole series E41. Nevertheless, the E1941 still look attractive.

Look a little different, LG Flatron E1941 does not fully use the shiny material for his physical. At the front, the frame has a design like the brushed aluminum with a slight accent on the edge of the row of shiny buttons are located.

By pressing one button will take you to the settings menu options (including special menus Super Energy Saving). On the menu, there is the option to turn on or turn off the feature Super Energy Saving and the statistical power savings are achieved.

Full Spec and Review Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

2011-08-09T06:55:00.000-07:00

Samsung really swift GT 10.1 is working on the design. Because the Samsung GT 1.10 actually been exhibited at the Mobile World Congress since last February. But when the iPad 2 appeared a month later with a super slim design, Samsung directly redesigned GT 10.1 is to be able to compete with the design of the iPad 2. Cespleng direct result. If lined up, the GT 01/10 capable of competing with the iPad in the matter of thinness. Even the official specs show 10.1 GT 0.2mm thinner than the iPad 2, much less than its competitors in the segment Android tablet, such as Acer and Asus Iconia TransformerAnother impression when tested GT 10.1 is the design that feels wide. This is due to screen size of 10.1 inches has a 16:9 aspect ratio widescreen alias. The weight of the device itself is about 565 grams, or lighter than the iPad 2. The weight that makes the GT feels comfortable 10.1-held, including when we read it while sleeping. The width of this device because it seems to also affect the weight distribution was more spread out in 10.1 is SGT.Poor ConnectorAfter the scour all parts of his body, we were stunned to see that there is at least the connector 10.1 is SGT.There are only two connectors are available: one for docking, one for audio-out. There is no memory slot to add storage capacity or the USB port as provided Asus Transformer. There is not even an HDMI connector which is actually a standard facility Nvidia Tegra processor 2 which used this tablet. The absence of all the connectors are somewhat disappointing because it reduces the ability of these tablets.On its website, providing Samsung Bluetooth-based keyboard as a complementary facility 10.1 is SGT. But from our observations, it is unclear whether there is a memory slot or USB keyboard. If it does not exist, the lack of flexibility will be the biggest shortage SGT 10.1.Simply Green VideoOne of our hobby is watching the video, so the first thing really testing the tablets as SGT 10.1 is the ability to play the video. Our experiments show that this tablet does not encounter any problems when playing AVI and H.264 video format with full-HD resolution. Especially for H.264, there are separate records. That can be played is a video that is formatted with the Baseline profile, while the Main profile can not. However, it is fairly reasonable since all the tablet-based Tegra 2 can not play videos with H.264 Main profile.As for the popular formats such as MKV, the tablet is somewhat difficult. Video can be played, but the video looks and sounds out of sync.Software and InterfacesSGT Tablet 10.1 is already using the Android version 3.1-the latest version is touted to solve various problems in version 3.0.In terms of interface, the main screen of the tablet is filled with large-sized widgets, which reminds us a little more with Windows Phone. The size of the widget itself can set the amount, which is one of the changes that Google did in Android 3.1.Other improvements promised by Google's Android 3.1 is on our side and responsitivitas enough to feel it. Screen and the menu feels smooth flowing SGT 10.1, as well as when running an application.We still have some obstacles, such as a momentary look like freeze-SGT 10.1 but overall a satisfying experience.ConclusionCurrently we still dig deeper SGT 10.1, including the benchmark and calculate how long the device has remained in battery mode.But in general, our first impression when trying SGT 10.1 quite positive, especially in terms of the comfortable use (thanks to the thin and light design) as well as Android 3.1 that feels much more stable than previous versions. However, we were somewhat disappointed with the minimal number of connectors, which reduces the ability of this tablet as a whole.If you want to know more in 10.1 SGT performance, see the August 2011 edition InfoKomputer. In this edition, we will also test three other tablets, the BlackBerry Playbook, HTC Flyer, and Motorola Xoom.

Fujitsu Lifebook LH531

2011-08-09T06:45:00.000-07:00

Fujitsu Lifebook LH531 - Fujitsu presents Lifebook line of notebook computing LH series that offers a flexible and modern. Comes with two types of LH530 (based on the Intel Core series-i first-generation) and LH531 (with Intel Sandy Bridge). The advantage gained thanks to the use of graphics chips from nVidia looks better increase in performance and battery power becomes more economical. Although serious memorable because without the necessary multimedia features, specifications offered are able to meet your computing needs in full.Lifebook LH531 is present in our lab using an Intel Core I3-2310M with a speed of 2.1 GHz. These processors can be upgraded to Intel Core i5 that has Turbo Boost function. Memory capacity can be increased up to 8 GB though LH531 only provides 2 GB of RAM.Fujitsu Lifebook LH531 adopted two chips to meet the needs of graphics known as hybrid mode (hybrid). Use of this hybrid graphics instead of working together in order to get more performance, but work separately. If you use a light applications such as Internet or typing, onboard Intel graphics chip that works. Meanwhile, if the process is more complex graphics calculations, the system will automatically use the nVidia chip.However, not many expect a lot when running heavy applications like the latest games. The reason, nVidia GF 410M graphics chip is only suitable for running various games with low resolution. However, nVidia GF 410M chip performance remains better than the Intel chip HD3000. In addition the hybrid objective is to conserve battery life and processor. Because the computational process will be transferred to the graphics chip rather than to the processor.Looks like Fujitsu Lifebook LH531 intended for serious users. This is reflected not support the inclusion of multimedia features. With the absence of the facility, the notebook is more appropriate to work even if the user also be able to play various multimedia files.Just look at the area around the keyboard that has no shortcut buttons at all. The area above the keyboard appear plain, decorated only speakers on the left and right as well as a large power button is easily pressed. Various features which are quite standard, without proper eSATA and FireWire ports. Luckily still provided an HDMI port for connecting to high-definition digital screens.Based on test results, the use of graphics chips Nvidia GF 410M indeed produce better performance. This we conclude, after comparing this product with the Acer Aspire 4750 which has the same specs (except the nVidia graphics chip not included). In addition test results show the battery life more efficient while actively running the nVidia chip high-definition video content.

Reviews and Specifications Panasonic HMC-TM900

2011-08-09T06:11:00.000-07:00

Reviews and Specifications Panasonic HMC-TM900 - At first glance seem like HMCTM900 Panasonic camcorders in general. Dressed all in black, the chrome-look accents adorn the ring lens and lens that also serves as the control of the zoom or focus the lens. Near the ring are included Camera Function button to activate the manual mode of taking pictures or video.Attention was then fixed on the screen reads FullHD on the outside. Adopting a touch screen system, all camera settings to do from here plus a button to record and zoom in the form of a physical button on the screen frame. Contrary to the position of the screen, to the body part in there is the Power button and set the port that has its own lid.In addition to the Power button, there 1080/50p button that serves to activate the video recording mode in FullHD resolution and speed of 50 frames-per-second. Perhaps you are wondering, why 50p and not 60p? It turned out that the specification is tailored to regional standards. Since the test unit we received uses the PAL standard, the standard used was 50p.Setting the recording quality on HMC-TM900 just a selection of the resulting bitrate levels. While for fixed FullHD resolution. To handle the audio, the camcorder is equipped with standard Dolby Digital Creator, which produces audio in Dolby Digital 5.1 format. The ability to record multi-channel audio is supported by five mics arranged in such a way as to capture the sound source with more accurate positioning.In addition, this camcorder can also be used for photographing. The sensor had a resolution capable of producing images up to 14.2 Megapixel (interpolation). There is also a mini flash to help take pictures in low light conditions. Unfortunately the picture quality somewhat unusual, tend to be less when compared to the quality of the videotape.To get the maximum quality, we activate the mode that produces 1080/50p video with a bitrate of about 25 Mbps. Results of the videotape appeared sharp with fairly accurate colors. Facility image stabilizer works well to minimize the effects of camera shake on the video. It's just that, their quality has dropped quite dramatically when the state began to dim. Noise in the video began to appear and the more clear when the zoom, the lens and the sensor shows working hard to get the picture.Specifications Panasonic HMC-TM900 :censorship3 x 1/4.1 "CMOS (3MOS)Maximum resolution8 Megapixel (effective sensor)zoom12x Optical (35mm - 420mm)LCD3.5 "460.800 pixelVideo FormatAVCHD, MPEG-4Recording mode1080/60p, HA, HG, HX, HE, iFrameconnectionDigital output: USB 2.0; Mini HDMI: AV Multi OutDimensions (Plt)13.8 x6, 6x6, 9 cmcompleteness- USB Cable- AV Cable- Software CD- Quick Guide- Hand Strap- Li-ion Battery and ChargerThe weight of the body including the battery440 grams OtherDigital Cinema Mode, Manual Settings, Electronic Viewfinder, Cold Shoe, 3D Lens Optionalweb sitehttp://www.panasonic.com

FujiXerox DocuPrint CP105b Specs and Review

2011-08-07T08:46:00.000-07:00

Who says FujiXerox only bring the printing device for the corporate segment alone?. In addition to presenting the press with great form, the printer output is also usually expensive because FujiXerox directly proportional to quality. But now they began to offer the printing device is slightly different from presented his FujiXerox DocuPrint CP105b. But where the difference?

The fundamental difference can be seen from the physical form of a relatively small class of color laser printers. MURI even set it as the smallest color laser printer in the world. This impact on the physical form of the small size of the toner. But this is enough to use the activity SOHO printed smaller than the corporates.

Secrets of a small physical form is a blessing to wear technology SLED (Self-Scanning Light Emite Diode) which was implemented on a range of new products. Just to repeat, the advantages of this technology is capable of producing laser-based printing device with a small design and produce electric power usage is less.

CP105b using a toner that are environmentally friendly because it can reduce energy consumption by 20 percent thanks to the use of EA (Emulsion Aggregation) toner-Eco. Toner used is also capable of reducing CO2 emissions by 35 percent compared to the previous generation toner. One drawback is that the toner used. When we open, the toner powder looks a bit scattered in its place.

Armed with 192 MHz processor and 64 MB memory, this printer is relatively "calm" when printing. When printing is not as fast as most laser printers. Delivery of orders to the printer runs a bit slow, fortunately not noisy.

But mostly we like the printout obtained. Print text-based using BW or color mode displays the results are sharp and solid to the smallest font can be read clearly and kept tidy. Image-based documents, graphics and text displayed accurately.

We're trying to print A4-mode full-sized image. It turns out that the resulting colors look bright with subtle gradations like a photograph. Prints with a layer of wax making it more durable.

EG Touch ET-2818 Specs

2011-08-07T08:44:00.000-07:00

Based on the experience of trying a variety of tablet computers for this, we prefer the power and flexibility of tablet computers in the running application. Well, EG Touch ET-2818 has quite a lot of "awkwardness" even though the specs seem promising. Besides the issue of Market, graphics speed is also very sad. This is evident when running applications or games that involve the rendering of complex graphics. EG Touch Presumably this must be further refined in order to achieve usability and performance of the maximum.

Galaxy Tab iPad success and became one of the triggers for manufacturers competing to bring the tablet computer. It tends to bloom even though historically it has not experienced vendors such as Apple's.

And this is what happened to EG Memory. Long been recognized as a leading brand from Hong Kong with a variety of storage products (flash, RAM, memory card) for computers, vendors are trying to bring the first tablet computer. At first glance, this device is not much different from similar products on the market.

EG Touch ET-2818 comes in a tablet model sailing 7 "with frame dimensions of 19.2 x 11.5 x1, 4 mm. This size is fairly comfortable to run a mobile activity. EG Design Touch controls ET-2818 also provides a physical button to go back (back). This is compounded by the menu at the side so that users can still return to the previous menu (when the system does not display both functions). Unfortunately the model is less convenient control buttons than the methods used by other tablet computers we've ever tried.

To stimulate the tablet computer, wearing EG Touch Rockchip 2818 1 GHz processor, 256 MB system memory, and 8 GB of internal storage with external memory (via microSD / TransFlash) up to 32 GB capacity. The screen is capacitive also a fairly convenient access with a finger. Unfortunately, this tablet computers still utilize the system Android 2.1 (Eclair) that feature is still limited. However, the vendor promised an upgrade to a newer system. EG Memory site, unfortunately, seems less informative to segment their tablet computers.

Besides via WiFi, EG Touch ET-2818 also provides a pathway through the 3G connection of external modules. apparently in the sales package available USB stick 3G modem to be plugged into a tablet computer to access the Internet. To support mobile activities, EG Touch has been providing standard applications such as e-mail, online maps, video player, up to the Android Market. Unfortunately, the Market included the famous 1710 version still has a "bug". Fuss again, Market Updater turns in has not provided a built-in so the download from the Market is often not successful.
