The LCD panel is a 12.1 inch affair with a native resolution of 1280x800. The screen overall is very average, as it offers below-par color/contrast ratios and unimpressive brightness levels. The upside is that it does not consume too much power.
The keyboard is top-notch. It offers excellent typing comfort via its beautifully positioned and elevated keys. The mouse pointer is also excellent and offers great traction and a comfortable working area.
Connectivity wise the laptop is quite good. It offers 3 USB slots, a 5-in-1 card reader, a dual-layer DVD-RW and Firewire. Check out this link for a full specification list.
For testing the performance of the X200, we first ran the usual series of benchmarks such as PCMark 2005/ 3DMark 2006 and in our second round we did real-time battery life tests. The results were as follows:
The R200 is a 12.1 inch laptop that's powered by a T7300 processor (2.0 GHz). It has 1 GB of RAM, a 160 GB HDD, and a Radeon HD 2400 graphics chipset. These are not very powerful specs and this was proved in our tests. The score averaged was 2673 on PCMark 05 and around 950 (with a spike of 973) on 3DMark.
One area the laptop excelled in was the battery tests. Even with heavy use it easily lasted over 3½ hrs (and when used sparingly, over 4 hours). This kind of battery life improves the viability of the laptop a great deal.
At the end of the day, the R200 is an odd product. It’s sturdily built and has a good battery life, but suffers in performance and is rather expensive at Rs 79,000. At this price point there are several ultraportables available, and with better specifications. We'd suggest you look around before you decide.
duh! All you blind wimps! Can't you read the price? 79,000 INR.
