Sentina review
Ordering:
Ordering went smoothy, I ordered online with no problems at all, the order was confirmed within a few hours and then I played the phase game
Shipment:
Fedex came, the box was in great condition. Packaged very nicely
First boot:
The first boot went very smoothy, filling out all the Microsoft crap.
Keyboard:
The keyboard leaves a lot to be desired. It could be a bit bigger, the space bar is very small. Also the shift key is to small.
Touchpad:
I hate it. It is way to sensitaive. Typing this took about me about an hour because I keep hitting it some how when I don’t even notice that im near it. Also there could be a button to disable to touchpadwhile typing a paper ect.
Screen:
Even thoe its only 12.1 inches. It’s a beacuty. I also own a sony labtop, and I can say this one looks just as good as the sony does.
Battery life:
Battery life I great, im getting about 5 hours of battery life, while running basic applications such as word, chatting and so on.
Duriabilty:
The system feels very strong. Its not flimisy like I expected for such a small laptop
Heat:
The labtop does get a little warm when its sitting on your lap. I addeda little plasic notebook holder that allows it to vent properly, and it keeps its cool very well.
Powercinima:
I have not been able to get it work, I have installed it but can not get it to boot. Still working on it.
Wireless:
The wifi- card works great. didnt have a problem at all. excellent connection.
CDRW-DVD:
the tray is a little flimsy but that is expected with any portable optical unit drive. The one bad thing is how the button is on it. you can easly hit it. and i have many times
Overall:
I am very happy with my labtop, it does what i wanted it to do, just basic aps while sitting on the couch and watching tv. Also great for traveling, went to my familys house, fully charg ed battery. Spend a few h sours there and still had battery power when i came home.
Edited to add this:
I have noticed when battery life gets low, the wi-fi card "throttles back" bandwith for some reasom.
100-30% bat life dowling a file off my private server i get about 300kbs
30-1% bat life, get abbout 50kbs
9.0 out of 10
