Dell Mini 10 Laptop Review
If you're looking for a new laptop to replace your old one, the new Dell Mini 10 may be just the device. This pre-configured laptop includes a 1366x768 HD display, Broadcom Crystal HD video accelerator, built-in digital television tuner, and much more. It's also available in different colors for under $400.
The Dell Mini 10 has an Intel Atom N450 processor with 1.66 GHz. It also has 1 GB of DDR2 SD memory and a 250GB hard drive. Its screen is 10.1 inches with a 1366 x 768 resolution. Other features include a Sharp design, hardware for video acceleration, and an elongated touch pad.
The Dell Mini 10 is an excellent choice for people who need a netbook with long battery life. However, it comes with a finicky touchpad. The price of the most expensive configuration of the Mini 10 is $40 more than the lowest. The Broadcom Crystal HD video accelerator, which costs $40 more, makes the video experience much better. The screen is also HD, and the speakers are loud.
The Mini 10 has a 5.400 rpm hard drive and can boot up Windows 7 Starter Edition in one minute and 20 seconds. This is significantly longer than the average netbook, but the added time is primarily due to the installation of Dell Dock and McAfee antivirus software. The Mini 10 is capable of copying a four-gigabyte multimedia folder at 22.9 MBps, which is comparable to the Acer One 532h's copy rate.
The Dell Mini 10 is available in several colors. We reviewed a black model, with a Dell logo adorning the lid. It features a 10.1-inch display and thick black bezels. It comes with a microSD card slot for storage and two USB ports for charging. We hope Dell offers Ubuntu and Windows XP operating systems in the future.
With a price-competitive price and free shipping, the Dell Mini PC is a great choice for small businesses and home users. These small PCs are designed for efficient work and can be kept in an office or home, where space is limited. They help you organize your workspace better and save space. It can be hidden in a monitor stand.
The Mini 1012's USB ports have charging capabilities and are located near the microphone and network sockets. These are also useful for charging your cell phone or iPod. The mini's microphone socket is also convenient for connecting a microphone, but note that it's made of plastic and may break under heavy use. The Kensington lock on the back of the Mini 1012 is useful for securing it in an exhibition booth.
Although the display of the Dell Mini 10 is glossy, it doesn't offer the best visibility outdoors. If you plan to use it outdoors, you'll have to plan your activities carefully. You might also want to buy an anti-glare screen protector.
