Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook P8010

Well-below 2 kg, the laptop Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook P8010 is intended to occupational mobility. It includes liaison broadband 3G +, has a system of protection of the hard drive and a biometric reader. If it is also a very good ergonomics, its autonomy relatively moderate and especially his finishing prevent hazardous to excel.
Fujitsu Siemens wanted to make a laptop professional design, “stylish”. The Lifebook P8010 is adorned with a shiny black hood. One aspect “glossy”, as they say, found on many computers 15 or 17 inches. Of this 12.1 inches for mobility, fingerprints appear quickly. And, in our view, aesthetics is not the strong point of this Fujitsu Siemens.
Its advantages in the area of mobility are more convincing. On balance, he did that weighed 1.335 kg. With the loader, the total weight not exceeding 1630 kg. This is certainly an ultraportable, this computer screen 12 inches (backlit by LED, and very bright). Such mobility is enhanced by its wireless connections. Who is enriched by an integrated card reader USIM serving HSDPA down to 7.2 Mb / s and HSUPA to 2 Mb / s (rising). We were able to test its system of protection against hard disk shocks. Set at its highest sensitivity, it effectively detects shocks very slight. It’s classical computers professionals, but also note the presence of a biometric sensor.
A very well thought out ergonomics
Among the strengths of Fujitsu Siemens P8010, we appreciated its ergonomics. Very well thought out. The various ports are well positioned. For example, two USB ports that are on the left side are sufficiently removed (about 1.5 cm) to allow the simultaneous connection of two USB keys. Under the screen, Fujitsu Siemens has installed a set of four buttons very practical. The first provides direct locks the computer. The second shows the screen a panel, the Windows Mobility Center. The latter represents a clear and allows you to adjust a range of settings: the brightness of the screen, the sensitivity of the system of protection of the hard disk, how to use the machine (energy conservation or maximum performance),… The third button, he launches energy-saving mode (disabling optical drive, Wi-Fi, Firewire, etc.).. And finally, the last button initiates automatic backup of selected files. The keyboard, a total width of more than 26 cm, is relatively comfortable. The striking the keys is amortized. And silent.
Within the computer contains a processor with low power consumption Intel Core 2 Duo L7100 at 1.2 GHz. The manufacturer has not been stingy in memory: it is 4 GB hard drive him reached an appreciable capacity of 160 GB (and runs at 5400 rpm). The screen-type LED backlighting, enjoys a very high brightness. But all this comfort could have been even more significant if accompanied by a greater autonomy. In intensive use, it is three hours. Not bad, but relatively average. Especially since the battery is at 8700 mAh. Where passes all this capacity?
Our great disappointment comes mainly on the strength and finishing of Fujitsu Siemens P8010. First, part of the screen seems too flexible. Admittedly, the thickness is greater than that of Sony Vaio ultraportables (for example), but it is less than what we’ve already seen on other Fujitsu Siemens. For example, the P7230 or the P1610. On the latter, the framework has a thickness of about 1 cm. With only 7 mm for the P8010 and an area larger screen, but it inspires more fragile. Secondly, and most importantly, we found that the product (received while nine per test) is really poorly done. At the level of small grids of the two loudspeakers, the lack of assembly required. Same as the front of the computer: fixing between the top and bottom of the frame is not firm.
