Advan Deskbook D5D-55132


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.

LG Flatron E1941 Review and Specs


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.

Full Spec and Review Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

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 Transformer Another 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 Connector After 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 Video One 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 Interfaces SGT 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. Conclusion Currently 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.
