Lenovo ThinkPad E125 Notebook Review

11.6 inches is a mainstream notebook computer can be called the size limit, then a point will be attributed to a small Tablet PC category. This size makes the notebook heads are relatively small, they are often 11.6 inches notebook computers are difficult to have other dimensions beyond the ultimate portability, can be installed easily in a briefcase away, the need for frequent business travelers for this size The notebook is the most practical choice.
Lenovo ThinkPad E125 send test under the Edge IBM 93P5003 battery series is a 11.6-inch portable business notebook, which is a product  line used to enrich the Edge series of products, but also the Edge series 11.6 inches upgrade for the product line, the E125 series have upgraded the most popular ultra-mobile platform AMD APU E350 dual-core processors, and gradually replace single-core processors AMD E240 models. E350 from the test before, this low voltage APU's impressive graphics performance has given us a very deep impression, I believe that can be upgraded from the E125 series has a very good performance. We start talking about appearance, step by step analysis of this "small body" of the notebook to see how small the universe is the atmospheric field.

Thinkpad E125: simple and restrained look and feel

Lenovo ThinkPad E125 (hereinafter referred to as ThinkPad E125) of the machine is very small, although the traditional matte cover piano paint did not look pretty, but this does not transform the fingerprint collector material is victory in the practical, black matte appearance to people feel simple and plain, faded after a gorgeous coat is more of a mature temperament.
Machine design neat, precise workmanship, black body moderate corner arc transition, together with the silver edge of the embellishment, both to meet the young fashion business users reflect the objective of stable personality.
Equipped with a red dot of the "ThinkPad" is a classic LOGO, a time when it is a sign of unique high-end business machines, and now the signs in many entry-level price of the product can also be seen, so that more people to have, ThinkPadE125 the roof and right side of the wrist rest with this printed LOGO.
Notebook computer manufacturing process level performance is a very important body thickness, the thickness of the body but also with the heat control conflict, in today's manufacturing process is also not satisfactory to both sides of the situation, some will choose the brand of products is more thicker, for better heat dissipation, so that users feel more comfortable using. This is the ThinkPad's products are often difficult to see the limit is thin, and E125 in the thickest body to 28mm, the thickness of the products in the same location is also regarded as relatively thick, but this can be some IBM 08K8048 battery benefits on the heat
As a 11.6-inch models, ThinkPad E125 is not a good weight control, weight and travel weight was 1.533kg and 1.876kg, its weight compared to their own X120 series also slightly weighs about 0.1Kg But the benefits by petite body size, the weight when carrying out quite easily.

Thinkpad E125: screen size and keyboard details

ThinkPad E125 11.6-inch screen with a common 16:9 ratio LED backlit screen, the best resolution of 1366x768, because the screen is relatively small, so in this resolution, the screen displays pictures in a very delicate feel, while the text in the display there are some small, the user can be adjusted according to personal preferences.
Although the space key on the keyboard light logo, but really no ThinkLight ThinkPad E125, and backlit keyboard, is expected to reduce production costs, E125 has a ThinkLight keyboard and the X220s and not a ThinkLight size 12-inch models so common, the details of the parts that the Edge's product positioning.
Lenovo E125 predecessors with the same size it is very different from a traditional shaft into a sunken shaft, which first appeared in the following ThinkPad Edge Series 12-inch models on top of the screen to open the sunken shaft when the hidden part of the lower border of the screen can make the screen up and down the border thickness can be symmetrical, will not seem so unexpected.
Although Lenovo E125 body is not great, but in order to improve the feel or the full-size keyboard, built as a great keyboard occupies the C surface area, and there is no independent shortcuts.
ThinkPad keyboard with the traditional difference is, E125 canceled trapezoidal key edge slope, similar to the form of chocolate floating keys, and retain key central concavity. Benefits of this design is to make the buttons more fit finger curvature, and smaller key spacing to enhance the dust of the keyboard area.
ThinkPad E125 shortcuts mainly to the F1-F12 keys, some specific new generation of ThinkPad product seems to have started to make the shortcuts into default, and former F1-F12 you need to use the Fn key with this change Lenovo ThinkPad W500 battery more in line with the needs of multimedia entertainment, just to get used to the traditional keyboard users take the time to adapt.
Family of next-generation ThinkPad touchpad all as integrated design, lower side of the left and right buttons with integrated touchpad, the touchpad looks bigger, more beautiful overall, but in practice when the left and right buttons when pressed mouse pointer will be more or less drift, often inadvertently hand this area, the mouse drift, double-click the misuse inevitable. But Lenovo official palmcheck drive, or use the keyboard when the red dot will automatically shield touchpad. But if you want to turn off touchpad need to enter the BIOS disabled.

Thinkpad E125: Interface details and thermal endurance

ThinkPad E125's body left with two USB2.0 interface, one can shutdown, hibernate mode to charge external devices need to be noted that in the state of charge is required to connect an external power adapter, by observing the power light is lit you can determine whether the charge. This is a very useful feature that allows for charging external devices become more convenient.
Although the ThinkPad E125 body is not, but used very complete Lenovo ThinkPad X61 battery video signal output port, VGA, HDMI interface also has features that, in addition to the left there 1xUSB2.0, RJ45 and one external headset hole.
ThinkPad E125 bottom is integrated design, if you want to add memory or replace the hard disk is too much trouble. From the graph you can see a filter mounted on the bottom, hidden within its two speakers.
Business notebook is most characteristic aspects of the life to be more advantages, such as the ThinkPad E125 models are equipped with a small 6-cell 5.6Ah high capacity battery, although the daily work in a simulated flight test follow-up time did not reach the official claimed nine hours However, 380 minutes (about 6 hours and 20 minutes) results is very good, if the energy-saving mode can increase the number of expected life.
In continuous operation for three hours, we ThinkPad E125 for heat detection, in addition to vents on the back of the eye-catching 39 °, the remaining part of the feel is quite warm, especially the right side of the touch keyboard feel more cool, we can see the "small universe" of gas field is not small.
Remove the battery will be able to see the ThinkPad E125 SIM card slot, but this laptop's SIM card slot and no internal solder joints, it is estimated there are only the same mold with high-end models have real SIM card slot and 3G wireless module, so if you need wireless Internet access can also buy a wireless network card.

Summary

Good light to carry, long life is the goal of business notebook constantly, but also for business people loved the main reason for Lenovo ThinkPad X61S battery these notebooks. Compared to the older ThinkPad E125 is designed to make some changes, in more practical detail, reflected in the petite body out of the "air field" characteristics. It has a good portability at the same time, it is equipped with APU for longer battery life, the whole lower the heat, and the graphics have made great progress on performance, very suitable as a second mobile office notebook.

Upgrade Your laptop battery Life

Laptop battery wearing down? In this week's episode of Upgrade Your Life, Yahoo! News' Becky Worley shows us how to help batteries last longer ... and what to do when they run out!

First, the basics

Most laptops use batteries that can last for 3-5 years, or about 1000 charges. (A premium laptop's battery might last longer.) Every time you charge your battery, the total capacity of the battery is diminished. Originally it may have had a run time of 3.5 hours, but after a year it'll run out of juice at 3 hours, even on a full charge.

If your battery capacity has diminished, there are a few things you can do about it. First, you have to correctly gauge how much capacity has been lost. There are free downloads to do this job, like Battery Bar (for Windows PCs) or Coconut Battery (for Macs). These will compare your battery's current maximum capacity to how long it lasted when it was new.
(UPDATE- we originally recommended Battery Eater and while the program works great, their download site has been compromised and we are recommending an alternate program, Battery Bar downloadable from CNET.)

Calibrating your Battery

You can't miraculously reconstitute your battery's capacity. It loses power over time due to chemical reactions taking place in the battery, as it chugs along powering your laptop. You can't undo those changes, but there is one common battery issue you can fix: In many laptops, the operating system's battery meter gets out of sync with how much juice the battery actually has.

Imagine if the gas gauge on your car dashboard was misreading how much gas you actually had in the tank. You'd either run out of gas when you thought you had a quarter of a tank left, or you'd be filling up too frequently. In your laptop, this can mean your laptop shuts down abruptly when the meter says you have 30 minutes left. Or else the meter might warn that you only have 2 minutes of battery life left and shut your laptop down, when it really has another 20 minutes remaining.

Recalibrating gets the battery meter to correctly read the current state of the battery, so you and the operating system know where you stand with existing battery life.
How to recalibrate

First, charge your laptop's Sony VGP-BPS2 battery to full, and leave it that way for at least two hours. Then unplug your laptop, and set its power management settings to never turn off or lower the monitor brightness. (HP has instructions for how do to this on Windows 7 and Vista, as well as Windows XP, while Apple has instructions for Mac laptops on their site.)

You want to drain the battery completely, then let your laptop sit for at least five hours this way -- like, say, overnight. (Just be careful and mute the volume, since some laptops make a warning sound when they're about to run out.) Afterwards, charge it up again, and you should notice a more accurate portrayal of your battery capacity. In some cases, you may even get more life out of it.

Best practices to maintain battery life

You'd think that the best way to keep your laptop's battery from wearing out is to not use it. Right?

As it turns out, batteries are like muscles; they need to be worked out regularly to stay healthy. Ideally, you'd use your laptop unplugged at least once a day, like on a train or bus commute or on the couch in front of the TV. If you're not going to use it, constantly charging your battery is a bad idea; HP recommends on Sony VGP-BPX11 battery their website that if you're going to leave your laptop plugged in or put up in storage for more than two weeks, you should take the battery out of your laptop.
Past the expiration date

So when is it time to throw out that old battery? The answer, surprisingly, is "never." Laptop batteries contain lots of toxic chemicals, and should never end up in landfills. Fortunately, e-stewards.org has a list of environmentally responsible recyclers that will take your old battery with no fuss.

When is it time to replace your battery, then? Use the free utility apps Becky mentioned, and when they say that your battery can only hold around 25% of its original capacity it's probably time for a new one. You can buy a replacement battery from the original laptop manufacturer, and Sony VGP-BPS3 battery there are plenty of places online that sell discounted PC laptop batteries, like Laptops for Less and Batteries.com. Owners of newer Mac laptops can get their laptop's non-removable battery swapped out at any Apple store, with a scheduled appointment.

Samsung's Galaxy Nexus The First Android Ice Cream Sandwich Phone

Google's next iteration of its mobile operating system has officially been dubbed Android 4.0 and it will be available for the first time on Samsung's new Galaxy Nexus smartphone.
The two companies lifted the curtain on the OS affectionately known as Ice Cream Sandwich and the Galaxy Nexus smartphone that will be the first to run it in Hong Kong late Tuesday evening (promotional video below). Google said Android 4.0 would be immediately available to developers. Samsung will begin shipping the Galaxy Nexus worldwide in November.
Here's a breakdown of what's new with Android 4.0:
The Taiwanese smartphone and tablet maker said the new Android OS (the first that Google has designed for both smartphones and tablets) will arrive on eight devices in 2012: ,Sensation, Sensation XL, Sensation XE, Evo 3D, Evo Design 4G.
Could Ice Cream Sandwich arrive for more HTC smartphones and maybe even a tablet or two? That'd be a big maybe, the company said.
"We're continuing to assess our product portfolio, so stay tuned for more updates on device upgrades, timing and other details about HTC and Ice Cream Sandwich," HTC said on Facebook.

HTC answered this question by announcing on Monday on its page that it will release eight devices in 2012 with the Android Ice Cream already installed. HTC identified the HTC Sensation, HTC Sensation XL and HTC Sensation XE, as well as the HTC Rezound, HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO Design 4G and HTC Amaze 4G that will receive the upgrade.
HTC had announced earlier that the new Beats Audio-integrated Rezound will come Ice Cream Sandwich-ready, meaning the phone won't ship with Ice Cream Sandwich but will be ready for an early 2012 update.

"We're continuing to assess our product portfolio, so stay tuned for more updates on device upgrades, timing and other details about HTC and Ice Cream Sandwich," HTC wrote in its page. Buyers should also be aware that their carriers could have different release dates for an Ice Cream Sandwich update than the phone manufacturer.

Other Android phones are also confirming the Ice Cream Sandwich update for their smartphones. Motorola has confirmed through a tweet that its Droid Razr, Droid Bionic and Xoom tablets will get the Ice Cream Sandwich six weeks after the ICS six weeks after Google makes it public.

Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Nexus will both get the Ice Cream Sandwich update. In fact  Galaxy Nexus will debut the new Android OS when it debuts sometime in November. 

Ericsson has confirmed on its Netherlands Divisions Facebook page that its 2011 Xperia smartphone lineup will get the Ice Cream Sandwich, but there is no news when that will happen. LG has also confirmed that it will update its Optimus 2X smartphone to an Ice Cream Sandwich OS.

"LG is currently in the process of planning the ICS OS update for the LG Optimus 2X as well as other LG high-end smartphones. Detailed information on the ICS OS update schedule for specific models will be announced, once the ICS OS is publicly released by Google. Please stay tuned for more updates from LG," LG wrote in its official Facebook page.
Introducing Android Beam. Ice Cream Sandwich leverages near-field communications (NFC) tech to enable you to share contacts, maps, apps, websites, directions, and YouTube videos with other smartphone owners simply by holding two Android 4.0 phones close to each other.
The power of speech. Siri isn't the only game in town. You'll be able to speak into the Galaxy Nexus and other Android 4.0 smartphones ASUS 70-N8G4B1001 battery and type emails, SMS messages, and more with your voice with the text immediately appearing on the screen in front of you.
A keyboard boost. Google says it's built a more accurate keyboard with Ice Cream Sandwich, while improving error correction and the cut, copy, and paste facility, and adding an in-line spell checker to the OS.
A "total Android makeover." Google says the look and feel of Android 4.0 was inspired by big, bold magazine design, with layouts that use big pictures that "suck you into the content" rather than blocks of tests and ugly lists. The OS, which is geared towards both smartphones and tablets, eliminates hardware buttons in favor of adaptable software buttons. Some ways that the new-look Android gives users a smoother ride include notifications that add pictures of the people you're communicating with, more intuitive folder management that allows widgets and folders to be resized easily, and dragged and dropped where needed, and a new homepage icon that accesses recently used apps.
A new lockscreen. Ice Cream Sandwich is ditching passwords for facial recognition technology to unlock phones. Unfortunately for Google, this particular feature failed badly during Tuesday's Hong Kong demo. The new Face Unlock feature did manage to lock out a non-owner of the demo phone, but somewhat comically, it wouldn't let the legitimate owner in either.
Google has done a couple of other things with its lockscreen and homepage with Android 4.0. You can now swipe a locked phone directly to the camera function and begin taking pictures from your smartphone immediately. Android 4.0 also features some pretty cool screensaver art for the homepage and a new San Serif typeface built just for Ice Cream Sandwich called Roboto.
Speaking of the camera Just as Apple offers quicker photo snapping on the new iPhone 4S, Google's upped the ante with Android 4.0 to provide ASUS 70-NDA1B1000 battery shutterbugs with "insanely fast" multiple shot-taking capabilities. And Ice Cream Sandwich has got a slick new photo editor chock-full of "hipster filters," according to the search giant.

Earlier this month, we brought you our on the 5th, as it was revealed at Apple’s Let’s Talk iPhone event in Cupertino, California. While Apple did come up with a solid operating system with new features, most of those ‘new’ features were playing catch-up with Android, Cydia tweaks and functionality already possible with third-party apps. From what we have just seen in Ice Cream Sandwich, it seems Apple will now have a LOT more to catch up with. See for yourself in the complete video coverage of the event. Note that it is nearly an hour long video so if you just want to get down to the details, read on for our full review.

Acer Aspire One 532h review

Acer's maintained a steady lead in the race to sell as many netbooks as possible in the past year. That's largely because the Taiwanese manufacturer figured out early that basic netbooks at lower prices would fly off shelves. And the new Aspire One 532h doesn't mess with that formula: the 10.1-inch netbook packs a new Intel Atom N450 processor, 1GB of RAM, Windows 7 Starter, 160GB hard drive and a six-cell battery all for $299. Yeah, we said $299. But at $100 less than most of the competition, how does the 532h compare in quality? What sacrifices, if any, are made for the lower price hp compaq 6910p battery ? We spent some time with the little guy, so hit the break for the full review of one of the cheapest Windows 7 netbooks around.

Look and feel

It's clear that Acer didn't want to mess too much with a good thing, since the 532h's design is almost identical to that of the previous . The only thing that's noticeably different is the multicolored, metallic-like blue and black lid, which reminds us of those old school hypercolor stickers that would change color with heat. It'd be pretty cool if the lid could do that, but the only thing that changes here is the amount of smudgy fingerprints that start to overtake it (we'd advise going with the silver matte version). But overall the 2.4-pound 532h is quite trim and light, and an .99-inches thick it's thinner than its closest competitors.
As for the build, the all-plastic chassis doesn't feel any cheaper than those rivals, though it can't hold a candle to the sturdiness of the all-metal and subsequently more expensive or the HP Mini 5101. The 532h has the usual netbook port selection with three USB ports, VGA, Ethernet, an SD slot and headphone and microphone jack surrounding the chassis. 

Along with almost every other laptop manufacturer under the sun, the 532h's gone the chiclet keyboard route, but just doesn't implement the style quite as well. Though it's spacious, and has two full-sized Shift keys, there isn't enough space between the keys and they feel too flat. Touch hp pavilion dv6000 battery  typing was a struggle, and even when we got the hang of it we were still mistyping words. Overall we much prefer the keyboards on the Toshiba Mini NB205 and Eee PC 1005PE. Our feelings are also mixed on the flush-with-the-palmrest touchpad which is only differentiated by a grid of rubbery dots. It does feel nice on an index finger, but it's almost too grippy and it's harder than we would have liked to move the cursor. Though the multitouch pad is capable of two finger scrolling, we preferred using the dedicated scroll bar.
The Aspire One 532h's 10.1-inch, 1024 x 600-resolution screen is typical for its class; it's bright, but surrounded by a thick bezel and the horizontal viewing angles are poor. With that said, we were able to manage watching a few video clips with a friend while laying on a couch.
Performance, graphics and battery life Our Aspire One 532h review unit ($349.99) was outfitted with a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N450 processor, 1GB of RAM, and a 250GB hard drive that boots Windows 7 Starter edition (the $299 version has 160GB of storage). We saw no noticeable performance difference between the 532h and other Pine Trail hp probook 4420s battery netbooks; working in Firefox with multiple tabs while simultaneously writing this review in Microsoft Word 20078 was snappy. While playing back a standard-def episode of Cleveland's Kids on Hulu.com was smooth at full screen, the Intel GMA 3150 still cannot play a high-def YouTube without stuttering 

Dell Inspiron 1525 Review

Remember last year during Christmas, Dell Inspiron 1525 on the early show his face in Australia, and its "colorful" captured the attention of many foreign customers. Into March, Inspiron 1525 and formally accept the booking in the domestic market, also subject to many domestic customers. In addition to giving a different appearance in the visual experience, Dell Inspiron 1525 also attaches great importance to "lose weight", the industry had previously said, the emergence of Dell Inspiron 1525, Dell is likely to mean that notebook computers former "heavy times" will vary the end, perhaps in the "weight" the purpose under the Dell Inspiron 1525 seems light compared to many older 1520. But the configuration does not give us too many surprises, T2330 + X3100 set was with the low-end mainstream configuration.

First, the Dell Inspiron 1525 design

People of any fear of a notebook are the first impression from the cover, while the Dell Inspiron 1525 is used in the 4K price is relatively rare in light purple paint coating, the amazing and dazzling to the extreme, in order to people can not withstand the temptation, love at first sight. While also adding in the above delicate and lovely pattern, surrounded by rounded LOGO around into endless poetic, people in the spring breeze Ran reverie Lianpian. Of course, users can also choose their favorite one is free to foot in black, blue, brown, green, pink, red and yellow colors to choose from seven kinds.

Open the cover Dell Inspiron 1525, greeted by the all-white world, borders, and keys are Mg metal surface for material to maintain a high degree of consistent style, but also accentuates the brand's atmosphere, more importantly, for the good The heat made fully guaranteed. Corners are rounded for a certain arc of the handling, in line with the modern advocates of the concept of beauty.

Side with tilt design, ergonomic design, help to improve the operation of comfort.

Second, interface layout of the Dell Inspiron 1525

Dell Inspiron 1525 interface is rich, but not blind flooding. Relative also fully consider and take into account the various levels of consumer demand, will not mean giving up commonly used, rarely used and will not be wasted, it is the more humane. In addition the number of sides of the interface is relatively balanced, four USB ports around the two, but are overlapping design, there may be two USB devices can not insert the embarrassment; suggested some time back into the common interface for frequent applications to free up enough space.
The left side of the interface: Power Connector, overlapping 2 × USB2.0, VGA video output, RJ45, RJ11, HDMI and IEEE1394a interface. It is worth mentioning that the Dell Inspiron 1525 is equipped with the market's first integrated graphics with HDMI interface, but the notebook.

The right interface: Express Card slot, DVD-ROM, S-VIDEO, overlapping 2 × USB2.0.
Front were placed microphone, dual headphone jacks, MIC, and multi-card reader. Rear addition to the battery and had no other outlet. Be noted that the ventilation holes on the back is indeed a relatively good design, the impact of the human body will not be hot air.

Third, the operating experience of Dell Inspiron 1525

Dell Inspiron 1525's keyboard work is quite solid, the surface coefficient of friction right key, the key process control well, will not have stiff feeling. Hand hands off the sound is relatively quiet, to avoid long-term work may bring worry. Sized keys, and focused, common CTRL, ENTER, BACKSPACE and space bar more than the other to large, full use of the advantages of 15-inch models. Most of the key marked with the Chinese use the computer for the initial contact person is a tremendous gospel, we have come to spy on the entry-level consumers DELL considerate.
Touchpad's DELL INSPIRON 1525 battery performance is remarkable, moving very accurate positioning, button does not appear rigid sense of cause difficult, people feel refreshing. However, the relative area on the touch pad 15 inch body is clearly designed to be a little "gentle" the.
Dell Inspiron 1525 keyboard shortcuts is also a traditional touch buttons and thermal design of the multimedia buttons combined, and recently we have reviewed the XPS M1530 is exactly the same, regardless of looks or show off with them are obviously more. Response speed is faster.
Most lights placed in care at the wrist, namely: power state, hard drive status, battery status, WIFI, Bluetooth. Another commonly used digital key lock, caps lock status, battery status and on the front side with the head of the Department, to better facilitate the user's observation.
Audio and video
Dell Inspiron 1525's display is 15.4 in. WXGA TFT display (1280x800), in DisplayX eight test cells not clear dark, gray-scale performance of the transition is not very good. If you want to feel better, you can upgrade to a 1440x900 display; believe DELL later give us more options, such as the long-awaited LED backlit screen.

Sound is also more generally, to the maximum volume is still small after, unable to meet the shock effect of the game, it is recommended plus subwoofer for better feel. In sum, the default configuration does not make gamers and movie enthusiasts enjoy completely.

Heat / noise

Dell Inspiron 1525 heat, since the only configuration with integrated graphics, the overall heat pretty well, only downside is that after the wrist in the long-term care using the temperature is significantly larger than other parts of the higher temperatures a lot, which is due to heat causes the hard disk. The noise, the Dell Inspiron 1525's performance is not satisfactory, the CPU load is low, basically there is no noise, but the CPU is in a high load when the fan will be noisier.

Fourth, the Dell Inspiron 1525 configuration analysis

Dell Inspiron 1525 located in the 4K-level price, the configuration is not luxury, dual-core notebook processor is extremely common Pentium Dual Core T2330, our review has been repeatedly deal with him, not repeat them here too; only integrated graphics Intel GMA X3100, gaming performance affected to some degree. As for the hard disk and memory, machines everywhere in the public market is not superior, were only 80G and 1G. In summary, the Dell Inspiron 1525 the most basic application in daily work and entertainment, is still very appropriate.

But more unfortunately, this machine is not equipped with Camera and Bluetooth by default in the entertainment and transmission will be limited. However, as time progresses, the wireless network card will play an increasingly important role, Dell Inspiron 1525 is not ignored. In fact, the advantages of using DELL direct marketing, we may also need to DIY one according to their own, such as the processor can add class to the Core 2 Duo T5450 or even T7250, of course, the price is also cheap. Interested users can go to the DELL website for more details, please.

Fifth, Dell Inspiron 1525 performance test

The following tests are in the Windows Vista Ultimate (32 bit) English and installed all the latest official driver environment to complete. We might take Recently, we've reviewed the Dell inspiron 1525 battery Blue S4220 and make a small comparison. Related evaluation: "re-fight cost 4999 yuan dual-core alone was the Blue S4220 Review" Blue S4220 using T2330 processor, 1GB of RAM, HD2400 alone significantly, 120GB hard drive, etc., is only 4999 yuan about the same price. May be seen, both the price and configuration are very close, are positioned above 4K. So as to price as a selling point of the two models, who should be able to have the last laugh then?
Above table shows the fraction of Dell Inspiron 1525 is slightly less, but the main reason is that a drag rear graphics. The processor, the Dell Inspiron 1525 due to chipset backing, and Blue S4220 is not a big gap, but unfortunately only just reached the average level of T2330; and application of a dual-channel memory performance than a little bit of Blue increase from 4000 but still far superior points difference.

The VISTA, self, limited by the lowest points of desktop performance, Dell Inspiron 1525 is only 3.1 points lower-middle, but comes to VISTA, various effects, including 3D and glass effects, etc., are still able to easily deal with; the corresponding game performance is poor cousin to only 4.3 points.

CPU / hard disk
Dell Inspiron 1525 uses the INTEL GM965 chipset (Blue S4220 uses a SIS 671DX chipset), from the test run has a relatively superior performance of the T2330, and R10 in Cinebench9.5 two tests are dual-core rendering T2330 above average, but better than Blue's S4200.

Summary

As low-end models, Dell Inspiron 1525 first appearance refreshing, purple and silver cover perfect combination of the border; Second, the layout of the light position is reasonable, comfortable keyboard, and Chinese identity is everywhere revealed China's consumer care; see as one of the best manufacturers worldwide, Dell's sensitive sense of smell in the Chinese market, not the mainland than any competitor difference! Slightly less than that,Dell inspiron 1526 battery's performance is not outstanding, video and audio effect does not seem to fully meet the expanding desire, game performance is somewhat lacking. Judging the low end of the Dell Inspiron 1525 still showed a higher cost is a concern.

Advantages:
1 minute at the homework, to ensure the comfortable and pleasant to use;
2 ornate style, showing the youth and fashion is difficult to resist the temptation to nowhere;

Disadvantages:
1 audio and video is lagging behind;
2 games, and overall performance is not outstanding.

Development of new energy automotive batteries avoid impulsive

In the new energy vehicles popular today, as the four electric vehicle lithium battery cathode material for lithium iron phosphate, into a hot concept.

Since the beginning of this year, the lithium iron phosphate patent battle constantly appeared in press reports upgrade. Several major multinational corporations from Europe and America have called lithium iron phosphate core technology patent, they played the patent battle. Moreover, more recent media reports, Phostech companies from Canada and China battery manufacturer negotiations, and that “entry fee” 10 million U.S. dollars, that producing 1 tonne of lithium iron phosphate pay the demanding requirements of 2500 U.S. dollars.
Patent battle seems to have given the technology increased the more mysterious aura. However, it appears too early on lithium iron phosphate has high hopes, the dell inspiron 6000 battery  experts pointed out that lithium iron phosphate battery powered electric vehicles is not an effective solution.

“Do not iron phosphate lithium battery electric vehicles in the role of exaggerated.” MOST 973 plan electric vehicle energy storage project’s chief scientist, Professor Ma Zifeng Shanghai Jiaotong University, said, “the academic point of view, lithium iron phosphate is not may be the future of new energy vehicles main battery. the current lithium ion battery cathode materials are mainly four types of lithium iron phosphate, lithium cobalt oxide, lithium manganese oxide, and ternary materials. from a single cell voltage of view, lithium iron phosphate ratio of cobalt much lower lithium and other materials, lithium iron phosphate energy density is low, the battery system, large volume, large-scale use may not be appropriate, more technical argument needs to be done. struggle on many of our companies rush to lithium iron phosphate project, easily foreign enterprises advantage of the loopholes. ”

Avoid blind launched

In recent years, new energy development of the automotive market is booming up. Data show that by 2012, China will create 500 000 new energy automobile production capacity to 20,000 yuan battery bicycles (Considering hybrid and pure electric vehicles) the average estimates, the domestic auto battery market could reach 10 billion yuan, equivalent to the current market growth in lithium battery 1 times. 2020, new energy vehicles driven global automotive battery market demand for more than 200 billion yuan. It is undeniable that China’s automotive battery industry will usher in rapid development of the golden opportunity.

In contrast, in the hot new energy vehicle market behind the corresponding cell technology is also increasingly put on the agenda. At present, development of new energy vehicles showing the layout of pure electric vehicles, fuel cell vehicles and hybrid abreast of the situation. Pure electric vehicles on the market today mainly use the batteries are nickel metal hydride batteries, lead acid batteries and lithium batteries. Should be said that not all technologies are good enough, there are some flaws, many laboratories and enterprises still have to improve.

Present from the whole, lithium batteries are still a security issue. Either manganese or iron phosphate, lithium, from the cycle life, reliability, security, charging and discharging performance of the various defects in terms of there. “Domestic power dell vostro 1310 battery  recently in 2012 (600,627, stock it) pool project enterprise is very large, can be no real breakthrough. Lithium batteries in five parts: cathode material, anode material, electrolyte, separator, packaging, each of are all important items are a core technology. of which the same has been the incredible. “Tang’s Environmental Energy Technology, Changshu Institute of the Changsha Yongkang said.

As a result, the frenzy of the lithium iron phosphate is partly reflected the mentality of the majority of Chinese enterprises. Technology is not yet mature in a subject, do not put more effort and money spent on technology research, but the choice quickly launched, this is really a waste of resources.

In addition, the quality of the domestic lithium battery there are still large gap with foreign, mainly production of different decisions. Zhejiang University, Professor of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, Wang Lianbang said: “Chinese enterprises mechanization and automation vary greatly with the foreign countries, many of which are handmade. A battery also can not see, hundreds of batteries in a series, the difference is obvious. on the quality of the shortfall is the consistency of the battery. from raw material to product, which has a lot of processes. a number of different products that are not the same quality. 100 batteries, there are 2 may not be very good. This is the mode of production the problem, not a year or two to make up. ”

Sand Yongkang also believes that consistency is not guaranteed a big problem. “The way to do mobile phone battery is because the small cell phone battery. An open electric car 150 kilometers, storage capacity to 15 kwh, 20 kWh battery pack, cell phone apple 13 macbook air batteries may be one watt, the equivalent of 15 000 times. most of our businesses to use the machine plus the manual way, consistency is not high. are still very low yield. “
