Super sound and crystal-clear image

Inside tinkers an Intel (R) processor, Pentium (R) CPU 987 with a CPU clock speed of 1.50 GHz and 2 MB cache. The graphics card is onboard. The color of the notebook's Metallic Pink and depending on the light, it looks sometimes slightly orange or copper from. The display is 14 inches in size (1366x768 pixels) and has a touch-sensitive screen. Of the 500 GB hard drive are effectively 438 GB. After the Windows updates it will be only 400 GB. The notebook has 4 GB of RAM, a subwoofer with built-in and the operating system is Windows 8 OEM 64 bit. In addition, it still has a DVD burner, WLAN and LAN, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC and a webcam with internal microphone. It weighs 2.40 kg and is 342 x 242.5 x 24.9 mm in size.

On the left side of the notebook you find the DC IN input for the power supply, the exhaust port, the LAN port, an HDMI output, a microphone jack, a headphone jack and 2 USB 3.0 ports of which a charging via USB support, even if the notebook is.
On the right side there are 2 USB 2.0 ports and the DVD drive. The loudspeakers are located at the front side and the front subwoofer at the bottom. In the front area you also can still find the slot for SD memory cards and the NFC tag.

Above the keyboard is the ASSIST button. The Assist button uses one when the notebook times do not want to start trouble and makes. So you can then solve a simple way problems or put the system back to its factory settings.

The initial setup of the notebook in which you have to accept the license terms, WLAN sets up and logs on with a Microsoft Live account, takes approximately 5 minutes. After the first start there then once a system update, some apps that need an update and a lot of Windows updates. The Windows Updates have spent the longest time, all 70 minutes.

After all updates are then, can be found on the Metro interface various more or less meaningful Apps. The 30 day trial of McAfee and the Office trial I have uninstalled the rest I left it.

The battery has been fully and showed a duration of nearly 6 hours. After I had the battery charged three times to the increased to 6 hrs. And 30 minutes. However, the battery will last only so long when nothing makes perfect on the notebook. The specified in the description 7 hours exaggerated high. Depending on what I have done, I came up with a runtime 2:20 to 2:45 hours. It may be that the after a few more boots still slightly increased, but a lot will certainly not be. I've surfed in time something on the Internet, games played from the store, looked Youtube and made settings.

The display looks really nice. There is a crystal clear picture and movies look really good on the notebook. However, it also reflects. It is heavily dependent on the viewing angle. Pressing the display back too far, the image becomes darker, it pushes you too far forward, it becomes lighter. The touchscreen responds very well but if you served the apps with a finger, then feels that somehow dull and one uses the apps with a touch pen, it squeaks tidy. I have two pins and it squeaked in both. Whether or not a touch screen is useful for a notebook, everyone must decide for themselves. It is a nice gimmick, but I work he prefers using the mouse.

I am thrilled by the built subwoofer. The sound is really great. So a sound I had been in any notebook. The bass could have been a little stronger but otherwise this is a really very nice and clear sound. Great way to listen and watch movies on the notebook fun music.

Otherwise, the notebook is running quite fast and it reached full for small games, word processing, Internet, movies and music.

Finally, the performance index (with the Windows Experience Index important system components are assessed on a scale from 1.0 to 9.9).

- Processor: calculation per second = 5.2
- Memory (RAM): Memory operations per second = 5.9
- Graphics: desktop graphics performance = 4.4
- Graphics (games): 3D business and gaming graphics performance 5.6 =
- Primary hard disk: data transfer rate = 5.9

Overall (results from the lowest subscore) = 4.4

I can recommend this notebook to anyone. Here so right about everything and the price is ok. It is meticulously crafted and feels dibasic. Only the color is probably not for everyone although I must say ... it looks really chic in Metallic Pink :-)
