subject: Long Life Portable Pioneer Thinkpad E125 Review [print this page] ThinkPad E125 is equipped with AMD E350 APU platform for a cheap model, design and workmanship in the quality of the ThinkPad brand has always been to maintain high-quality, and in hardware performance, obviously not the main selling point of this E125, cheap, portable, long battery life is a bargaining chip in its competition, the following, we will through this evaluation, you opened this 3999 yuan 11.6 inches portable small mystery.a
Designed for low-cost platform to create mobile office
Hardware configuration, ThinkPad E125 with a AMD APU platform, equipped with AMD E350 APU processor, equipped with 320GB hard drive, and 2GB DDR3 1333MHz memory speed, in addition, the machine factory preloaded with Windows 7 Home Basic Edition operating system. Graphics, the model uses AMD Radeon HD 6310G single significant.
AMD E350 APU has a 1.6GHz frequency, the secondary cache of 512KB, dual-core design, TDP of 18W, the internal integration of the HD 6310G single display, support for DX11.
We CINEBENCH R10 processor's performance is tested, from the final results, E350 APU single core score 1024, 1802 dual-core score, its performance in entry-level standards.
Next, we 3DMark Vantage on the AMD Radeon HD 6310G single performance was tested and, ultimately, Entry mode, 1366 768 resolution, measured in the environment part of the GPU score of 4895 points, general graphics performance, but for large Most online games and the general stand-alone game, it is no problem.
Finally, the overall performance of this product was tested using the software for the PCMark Vantage, which is a common comprehensive performance assessment notebook software by simulating the user a variety of practical applications, applications for all aspects of daily notebook gives the corresponding the assessment results.
From the overall situation, the overall academic performance of 2065 points in general. In the individual tests, more balanced overall performance, music, communications and hard drives for more than three score of 2000 points, the other the 1000 performance pay would also meet the performance level of the platform. Overall, this ThinkPad E125 selling point is not in performance, but rather cheap and portability, there are requirements for portability and budget may consider buying fewer friends.
Excellent portability superior endurance
Performance-related tests in the mobile, we first ThinkPad E125 the weight of the weighing. The model uses the 11.6-inch mold, the body good portability. We had them by electronic weighing scales, we see that their weight with batteries 1.535kg, travel weight of 1.886kg, very light.
In the thermal performance testing, we used FurMark software to make this machine run at high load condition, after an hour or so of time, CPU temperature dell 312-0625 battery rose to 65 , respectively, the core temperature reached 66 , because E350 APU platform The overall design is to focus on low power, so the heat will not much pressure.
By thermal imaging devices, we face the fuselage C and D surface temperature were tested. Among them, the most contact with the user's keyboard part of the maximum temperature of 38.2 , the maximum temperature of the bottom of the fuselage 41.3 . From the heat distribution, we can see, the highest temperature of the red zone, the surface for keyboard, the keyboard focus on the red area on the left side part and the bottom of the window portion is concentrated in the heat, feel, still very cool.
ThinkPad E125 equipped with a 11.1V/5.16Ah lithium batteries, we BatteryMark tested their endurance, and ultimately the measured life time of 8 hours and 39 minutes and a range of outstanding, for a long time unplugged office applications.
Described the overall design
Edge series is gradually mature later, have their own style, although we still can see a lot of "black" shadow, but the wind in the business highlights of the city into a bit of fashion style, this is Edge between business and home series between the best interpretation.
The new Edge family of products has made some design changes, completely abandoned the piano paint materials prior to use, handle and visual turn to win matte matte material. Meanwhile, in the edge of the fuselage, the designer uses the smile arc over to the corner as a body, which makes the overall look is more rounded.
Although the overall design to make some changes, but for the ThinkPad brand is concerned, you want to make a qualitative change is very difficult, both traditional T series, X series or the subsequent launch of the Edge series, if the inherited commercial wind erase, then ThinkPad has lost its soul.Therefore, we also see, E125 still retains the dell inspiron e1505 battery
appearance of a very strong business atmosphere.
In the notebook field, 11-inch portable means be equated with, E125 same is true, with 11.6 inches of mold it is inherently a superior portable, while the quality of the screen, E125 does not cut corners, but ThinkPad has always maintained a high-quality, screen color saturation, sharp display, do not disgrace the glory of the ThinkPad brand.
Compact body has advantages in terms of portability, but get little body design challenges, some of the components of the space is occupied only by rational design to solve this problem, like E125 speakers, which was designed in the machine bottom front of the body, across the entire body, using the limited space provided for the user as a large area of the speaker unit, which to some extent, to ensure quality.
Interface configuration, E125 fuselage on the left to set the VGA port, HDMI high-definition interface, a USB 2.0 port, RJ-45 Ethernet port and audio jacks. Among them, the net mouth slightly exam design, layout of the USB port in use have a certain influence, but the interface to maintain a reasonable distance, while the basic does not affect the ease of use. The right side of the configuration of the reader, a support function of the yellow charging off USB 2.0 interface and a regular USB 2.0 interface, in addition, by the back end also features a power jack and security lock slot.
High-touch comfort keyboard
ThinkPad notebook keyboard touch is recognized as one of the most comfortable laptop keyboard, mainly because of its key process control is in place, and keycap surface in line with the concave curvature of the fingers curved belly design, so that the intensity of the keys bounce back and the fingertips touch two areas are so high quality.
TrackPoint is iconic ThinkPad notebook configuration, the ThinkPad notebook has become the soul.Although the operation of the pointing stick when it is somewhat not just get started, but later in the familiar, ordinary applications can abandon under the mouse, the user is very convenient.
E125 power button design in upper right corner of the body C face, the whole round, slightly lower than the surface of the fuselage panel. E125 printed on the bottom right corner of the machine model LOGO, the screen surrounded by a pad to cushion the impact of cap and body.
In the wrist rest and touchpad areas, E125 because the body space is small, so a corresponding narrow wrist rest area, and the dell inspiron 1425 battery touch pad to ensure the top of the key areas around the case, of course, can not be bigger touchpad area, but under touchpad along with the left button is still functional, so the overall feeling of lack of space to operate, which is slightly regret.
