News: A review of Samsungs $249 Chromebook
|
 The new Samsung Chromebook is an interesting animal: it costs $249, has an ARM Cortex-A15-based processor, and runs Chrome OS, which is unlike any operating system on the market today. We`ve taken it for a spin to see if it`s worth the entry price."

Energizer XP4001 4000 mAh Universal Portable Charger Review @ TestFreaks
|
|
Today I have a review for you, but I also have a great deal on said product. What I have for review today is the Energizer XP4001 4000 mAh Universal Portable Charger which normally sells for $49.99, but its on sale for $29.99 but to sweeten the deal Ive got a code that gives you $20 off bring the price to only $9.99. I added to my cart, using the code and with shipping it was only $15.99 shipped. So its obviously a universal charger, but its one of the better ones Ive seen and as a bonus when you register your product youll be eligible for two free tips per year for life! Yes thats for life, forever, every year you can get two tips. So read on to learn more about the XP4001 and see the very end of the review for the code so you can get that $20 discount. "

Tech News: ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity TF700T 32GB Tablet Review
|
|
ASUS is widely known for producing computer parts and peripherals, but rarely do they indulge in anything pre-made. Introduce the ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity TF700T, and now we have seemingly one of the first ASUS products in the mobile market. Frankly speaking, it makes sense for ASUS to dive into tablets. They already produce premium lines of business and gaming laptops, so tablets are the next logical direction. It certainly doesn`t become a question as to whether ASUS can make their name in the market, but rather how well. Tablets aren`t perfect devices by any means, but some are better than others. The little things matter at the end as they define which tablet is the perfect buy. ASUS is regarded as a highly reputable company, but that alone cannot carry them from consumer scrutiny."

Samsungs A15 Chromebook Loaded With Ubuntu Is Crazy Fast
|
|
Google recently launched the Samsung Chromebook that for $249 USD features an 11-inch display, a 16GB SSD, a promise of 6.5-hour battery life, and is backed by a Samsung Exynos 5 SoC. The Samsung Exynos 5 packs a 1.7GHz dual-core ARM Cortex-A15 processor with ARM Mali-T604 graphics. With using this new ARM Cortex-A15 chip plus the Samsung Chromebook not being locked down so it can be loaded up with a Linux distribution like Ubuntu or openSUSE, it was a must-buy for carrying out some interesting Cortex-A15 Linux benchmarks. The Exynos 5 Dual in this affordable laptop packs an impressive performance punch."

Checking out the latest Intel-powered Ultrabooks and Tablets @ ThinkComputers.org
|
|
When it comes to choosing a device these days things are much different than they were just a few years ago. Now there are so many devices that allow us to complete our daily tasks that it is hard and even sometimes confusing to choose a device when it is time for an upgrade or a new purchase. Intel knows this and we sat down with them to discuss some of the latest Intel-powered Ultrabooks and tablets. They not only let us get our hands on these devices but explained many of the features that are built-in on a hardware level that you will not find with a non-Intel system. Read on as we show you some of these new devices and give you an idea of what to expect to see from Intel-powered devices in the future."

TRENDnet TPL-406E 500Mbps Compact Powerline AV Adapter Review
|
|
Many people seem to have a hard time leaving the convenience of their local Wi-Fi network although they all know that it can`t actually reach the throughput data transfer speed of a wired connection. Wiring a brand new house with Ethernet (CAT5/6) cables may not be quite easy but it`s also the most ideal solution if you want the best possible performance for your local network (although it can get somewhat expensive). However for old houses/structures that is not really possible (unless you don`t care having them around) and so in such cases you can either rely on a Wi-Fi connection or on Powerline adapters. Of course since Powerline adapters practically use the electrical wirings of the structure their performance is directly affected by their quality/age. Still even so Powerline adapters are quite faster than most Wi-Fi connections (especially when the modem/router is not near) something which we`ve proven time and again through our reviews. This time however in our lab we have the smallest Powerline adapter in the market to date, the TPL-406E 500Mbps compact powerline AV adapter by TRENDnet."

Asus Zenbook Prime UX31A Ultrabook Windows 7 and 8 Testing Review @ TechwareLabs
|
|
Ultrabook is a label that can mean just about anything. Asus, however, seems to be cleaving close to Intel`s original intent; the Zenbook Prime UX31A looks at first glance to be a slick competitor to Apple`s featherweight offering. First impressions can be deceiving, though, so we`re taking a closer look to see if this little slice of Zen lives up to its promise."
