Toshiba Libretto U100 3rd Review

Size comparison: Toshiba Libretto U100 vs. Handphone
(Source: Geekzone)

If the past 2 reviews on the U100 was a little too much information and that headache that much more imminent, then here we weigh the pro and cons to cap off this Libretto review trilogy.

What’s awesome: Extreme mobility, super duper lightweight, large storage, excellent connectivity, good battery life, and a fingerprint reader (woohoo…?).

Downside: Cramped keyboard & too small a screen, hard-to-use Bluetooth software, Windows XP HOME Edition, plus VGA out requires dongle.

A little humour from PC Welt: The crisp, bright 1280-by-768-resolution screen supplies a luscious concentration of colors, but fonts and icons were so tiny I needed to put my glasses on — except they were on already.

The keyboard and touch-stick mouse are undeniably too small so thank goodness for the two USB ports on the side. Go dust-off that external mouse of yours, and plug in for a better point-and-click experience.

All in all, if you can look past its negative aspects, you’ll have an otherwise worthy and powerful notebook. So, is your cup halve-full or halve-empty?

    That is not true, that Libretto U100 uses Windows XP Home Edition because I have my Toshiba U100 with me, it have Windows XP Professional Edition!
