Fujitsu AH530 laptop
Fujitsu  Lifebook AH530

Today we are going to take a closer look at this great home-user laptop because it has become quite popular recently and is on sale in some big tech stores. We have tested the AH530 several times so far and we totally liked it.

Fujitsu AH530 has a nice 15.6-inch LED glossy display with an HD resolution of 1366 x768. The screen is bright and with the LED backlit technology you it is consuming low amount of power, therefore you got more battery life when not plugged-in. The graphics controller powering this good monitor is an Intel HD Graphics which is good enough for watching high-quality HD videos and playing some games.
The processor used in Fujitsu Lifebook AH530 is Intel Pentium P6200 rated at 2.13 GHz. It is a very good processor that performs very well when multitasking (it is a dual-core processor after all). The chipset is Mobile Intel HM55 Express.

Asus X55V laptop review


The AH530 also has 4GB of DDR3 (1066 MHz) RAM which is expandable up to 8GB (an overall of two slots are available). This size of memory is perfect for a laptop and we don't recommend you to upgrade it as it is going to drain your battery pretty quick. But in case you want to launch rockets and stuff like that with this laptop than you may consider upgrading (just kidding).

Fujitsu AH530 has a 500GB hard drive which is a decent storage for all your multimedia and docs.
Connectivity options on the AH530 laptop are more than generous. You have built-in WiFi (with N support) connection and Bluetooth 2.1. Three Hi-Speed USB 2.0 ports,4 in 1 card reader, one VGA and one HDMI port are also available. Those who need an Express card slot (34/54mm) and an Ethernet connection will not be disappointed as well.

The optical drive of the AH530 laptop is a DVD Super-Multi.
When talking about multimedia features in Fujitsu AH530 laptop we should definitely mention the integrated 1.3MP camera and the good quality stereo speakers (high definition audio). A headphone jack and a microphone are also available in the AH530.

Fujitsu Lifebook AH530 comes with a standard 6-cell 4400mAh battery which will hold charge for about 2-hours of active work.

As for the software most AH530 laptops come preinstalled with Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium operating system which will be good enough for most users.

The dimensions of the Fujitsu Lifebook AH530 are pretty standard for a 15.6-laptop. It measures 378mm in width, 252 mm in depth, 35.7 mm height and it weighs around 2.5 kg.

The price of the Fujitsu AH530 is definitely one of the good things about this laptop. It can be found for less than £300 which considering all the good stuff this laptop has is a real bargain.
So if you need cheap reliable and pretty well equipped 15.6-inch screen laptop than you may consider buying the wonderful Fujitsu Lifebook AH530.

2012 GMC Terrain review

2012 GMC Terrain test drive and review - check out the all new SUV by GM

2012 GMC Terrain 



In this review we are going to show you the front-wheel drive version of the 2012 GMC Terrain SUV. It achieves better fuel economy and has lower price tag than the all-wheel drive model.
The GMC Terrain is a relatively small SUV but it offers great interior space so it is good enough for long trips with a lot of luggage. The towing capacity of this SUV is good as well.
For 2012 GM has made some minor design changes for the Terrain and now it looks sportier and modern.
With the new FlexFuel system your GMC Terrain SLT is more budget friendly than ever before.
There is plenty of competition in this price segment and strong competitors like the Ford Edge, Honda CRV and some others will make it very difficult for the GMC Terrain but considering the improved fuel economy and the low price for the base models this SUV may become a real successor.

The 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe is one of those cars that you are going to be in love with or totally hate it. This all is thanks to its provocative Asian design and new petrol engines.
Hyundai Genesis Coupe looks sporty and aggressive but you can easily recognize the Hyundai even without seeing the badge. The proportions of the car are very similar to those of the Scion FRS and Infinity G35/G37 coupe.

For 2013 the Genesis Coupe will be offered with the choice of two engines - 4 cylinder 2.0l turbo producing 271 hp and a 3.8l V6 engine with the output of 345 hp. Those figures definitely look impressive, especially for a small coupe like the Genesis. These engines will be coupled with either 6-speed manual or the new 8-speed automatic gearbox.
Price of the new 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe will start from $22,000 for the four cylinder base mode and will reach up to $30,000 for the Grand Touring V6 version.

Lava 7 Android 2.2 tablet - today at For consumers blog we are going to take a closer look at another of the cheap tablets that looks amazingly like the Apple iPad. But most similarities with the most popular tablet in the world end here. The Lava 7 tablet has an 800MHz processor (WM8650) and a 7-inch resistive touchscreen with 800 x 480 resolution. The screen is nothing special but you shouldn't expect anything else in this price segment.
Lava 7 runs on the Android 2.2 operating system so plenty of apps are available for this tablet at the Android Market.
    

The Lava 7-inch tablet has one big disadvantage, the tablet has a shortage of system memory - only 256MB of RAM which isn't enough for a modern tablet computer. It also has 4GB of storage space and the ability to operate with memory cards (microSD) of up to 32GB.

2012 Hyundai Accent test drive and review

2012 Hyundai Accent test drive and review - price, features and specs of the all new 2012 2012 Hyundai Accent

The latest version of the Hyundai Accent (also called Hyundai i25 and Verna ) received a major redesign and now it looks and drives as a more upmarket vehicle. The 2012 Hyundai Accent shares the same platform as the Kia Rio and that is pretty obvious. The two cars are very similar in terms of looks and driving characteristics.
The new Accent will also use the same powerplant - 1.6 liter engine (138-hp and 123-ft. of torque) with either 6-speed automatic or 6-speed manual transmission. For other locations different than North American market the new Accent will be also offered with a 1.4 petrol engine producing 109-hp.
   
The exterior of the 2012 Accent has a lot of the styling features of the bigger Elantra. The car looks much better than the previous generation which has this typical Asian car looks.
The 2012 Hyundai Accent is offered in either a 4-door sedan or 5-door hatchback version.
The interior of the new Accent is also improved, with good ergonomics and enough space for four adults the car feels bigger than a sub-compact vehicle.
The dashboard layout is simple and functional and all the controls are easy to use.
As it looks the new 2012 Hyundai Accent has a lot of good features. The price is also acceptable and considering the good fuel economy the Accent can achieve than it may be considered a pretty good deal in this car segment.

Today at Test and Review blog we are going to take a closer look at the 2012 Kia Rio.
First of all we should say the new redesigned Rio looks awesome. It now ha much more settled looks and sporty design and feels more upmarket in general. The 5-door Rio is a small car but the way the interior space is used it could easily fit four adults and a fair amount of luggage.
2012 Kia Rio     Kia Rio review
For the 2012 model Kia Rio is offered with 1.6 petrol engine producing 138-hp and 123-ft. of torque. This engine is shared with the new Hyundai Accent which is produced on the same platform as the 2012 Kia Rio. With this engine the Rio achieves great fuel economy with both the 6-speed automatic and the 6-speed manual gearboxes.
Kia Rio dashboard
2012 Kia Rio dashboard
The interior of the new Rio is well laid out with stylish design features on the dash but you can still find some cheap plastics around the cabin. A very nice entertainment system with iPod and Aux integration is offered for a few bucks more or standard in higher trims.
As I said luggage space is more than generous for a car of this size.
Kia Rio 2012
2012 Kia Rio sedan
The price of the 2012 Kia Rio is somewhere in the middle of this class. Depending on the trim level you choose the new Rio will cost you around $18 000 which is not the cheapest in this price segment but considering the qualities of the car and the long warranty it is probably one of the best deals for a new sub-compact car.

2012 Kia Rio test drive - video


What we think of the 2012 Kia Rio - it is a good car and definitely an improvement over the previous generation. The variety of the offered models is also a big plus against the competition in this segment.

We definitely recommend the 2012 Kia Rio, you can hardly go wrong with this one - it is compact, it looks modern, it drives well and the build quality is also on a very good level.

Citroen DS4 consumer report

Citroen DS4 consumer report - test drive and review Citroen DS4

   
 It has been quite some time since Citroen launched their luxury new DS-series and for some this was a step forward even though the brand was using some tricks from the 1960's.
Citroen DS4 is based on the mid-sized hatchback C4 with some stylish and functional upgrades to make it stand out form the crowd.
The car is elegant and sporty but looks a bit too big and massive and doesn't have the distinctive sporty looks it should probably have.

Citroen DS4 interior is very stylish 
The interior of the car is very roomy and offers plenty of space for both front and rear seats. The space for luggage is big enough and you will not lack space for your big suitcases.
Interior space is very functional too, most instruments have a nice touch and are easy to reach. The DS4 is equipped with all possible gadget you may possibly need including many electronic assists, satellite navigation and plenty of others.
Citroen DS4 comes with a choice two diesel and three petrol engines in the DS4 (from 112 PS up to 200 PS)

Contrast is not on the brightest side but it is good enough for viewing your content even in sunny daylight conditions.
                 
Droid Incredible 2 comes with a 16GB microSD card (included in the package) so plenty of storage for multimedia is available.
HTC Droid Incredible 2 offers fast (depending on the network of course) 3G connectivity and a quad-band (GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 (Quadband) WCDMA (UMTS)/HSPA 900/2100 CDMA 800/1900) network access.
HTC Droid Incredible 2 has a built-in GPS receiver so plenty of navigation options are available depending on which software suits you best. Many GPS applications can be found in the Android market as well.
The 8 MP camera situated on the rear side of the phone produces good quality images but not as good as a regular point and shoot digital pocket camera. It also offers a 720p HD video recording. There is another 1.3 MP front–facing camera for conference calls and stuff like that.
Basically the HTC Droid Incredible 2 is performing good in almost any aspect - the size and the form-factor are on the smaller side, processor speed is good, the 8MP camera is good enough for a smartphone. The only thing that may push you away form this capable device is its price.
Currently it is offered on the US market for around $430. That may be a bit too high for some customers but if we have to be honest this is the real price for a device with functions and built quality that the HTC Droid Incredible 2 has. The good news is that HTC Droid Incredible 2 is offered with contract form Verizon wireless for only $200.

MSI Wind Top AP1920

MSI Wind Top AP1920 review - price, features and specifications

The MSI Wind Top AP1920 all in one PC is a very interesting device. It combines personal computer and home entertainment in one, including a TV tuner (additional) and few more interesting features.

    
The MSI Wind Top AP1920 has a very bright and clear 18.5-inch 16:9 wide screen which suits best for the kitchen or kid's room. It's very big so it is not the best solution for watching movies and stuff like that. It will do a great job for a quick browsing of the web (check the e-mail, the morning news etc.) or watching some TV shows in the kitchen while fixing a meal.

The MSI Wind Top AP1920 has an Intel Atom D525 dual core processor and 2GB of RAM which is more than enough power for the stuff we mentioned. The 320GB HDD means you will have plenty of storage for all your favorite multimedia.
Some models of the MSI Wind Top AP1920 come with a Freeview USB TV Tuner which makes the media experience complete.

MSI Wind Top AP1920 price
In my mind this interesting all in one PC is quite expensive. It can be found in UK tech stores for around £350 which is a bit too much.

Audi A1 test drive and review

Audi A1 test drive and review

Audi A1 has a modern cool profile


Audi A1 is one of the newest members in Audi's model family. It is a compact vechicle which will compete against other stylish small cars like the Mini, Fiat 500 and Alfa Romeo MiTo.
Audi A1 has the distinctive looks of most Audi cars but there are new design features that make it a bit different from what we've seen so far. The car has a profile similar to the one of a Fiat 500 but the A1 looks more muscular and settled than the Italian.
Audi A1 has very ellegant and functional interior with some typical for Audi design elements like the air vents and some other elements on the dash.
Audi A1 is offered with plenty of engine choices - four petrol and three diesel. The 1.2 TFSI is the smallest of all and the biggest and most powerful are the 2.0 TFSI and the 2.0 TDI.

  

These engines ar coupled with either a 5-speed manual or 6 and 7-speed autoamtic gearboxes.
All engines will feature the eco friendly start-stop system and energy recuperation system.
The price of the A1 is a bit too high considering its size but it is not any small car, it's a modern and funcional part to your lifestyle. Depending on the model the A1 reaches prices of more than 20,000 Euro.
