Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Pro V3515 Edition - Celeron M 430 1.73 GHz - 15.4" TFT

Advantages: Reasonably good spec for the price, but not amazing. Quite good looking
Disadvantages: Some small faults and one major fault with freezing/locking up.

...I even asked on the Fujitsu Siemens support forum, and didn't receive a reply!! BTW: I also asked them about the jerkiness with Windows Media Player (which I have infact updated on Microsoft's website to the new version, but to no avail), and guess what - Fujitsu Siemens didn't reply to me on their support forum about that either! I've not tried to run any games on it, as I have an Xbox 360 for games, so no need for it on the PC, and the sound card ...
...and I run the sound through an external proper audio amplifier and decent speakers. N.B. There is no TV-Out option with this laptop, which I would have liked, but for a budget priced laptop, you can't expect this feature at the moment. Overall I am fairly/reasonably satisfied with it, and I don't regret getting it. However, with the locking up/freezing problem I can't recommend it to others. ... Read review

Advantages: Works with windows Vista, has an average battery life and a good wifi range
Disadvantages: not fast enough performance, has compatibility issues with some hardware

I recently bought this laptop throught the company i work with as my managing director has the same laptop and said it was a very high quality laptop. However, I am slightly dissapointed, but I still like this new laptop very much. Some of the faults with the laptop arent actually the laptops faults, in fact they are the Operating Systems faults. The system is very slow, the operating system isw Windows Vista Home Basic. now I have tried my MD's ...
...talking to some of my friends they also have told me that windows Vista seems slow, so I feel that this may be some form of development issue. Although it still is quite quick at times, not always but still quick enough for the standard user. If you are trying to develop software or website design, dont go for this laptop as it takes a long time to compile and run your programs. However if you want a computer to write emails and write letters and ... Read review

Advantages: Great Value for money, plenty of features.
Disadvantages: Proccesor too slow to handle with gaming.

This is my first laptop, and so i did not want to splash out £600 plus on an ultra top of the range laptop. This was recommended to me by a friend, and i find it a superb mid range laptop. Mind you, i would not recommend it to anyone who wants to play high graphics games, but it is a superb computer for browsing the internet and reading emails. The brightness of the screen is very good, and the battery life is acceptable. But you can not ask any ... Read review

Advantages: good entry level
Disadvantages: power input fragility

Major Flaw This in many ways is an excellent " all-purpose" laptop being reasonably fast and well fitted with accessories. The screen is clear and it has sufficient accessory ports for just about all the needs of the average user. BUT it has one major flaw and consequently it is not one i would use again. The power input has a very weak pin connection. Mine received a fairly minor tap on the connection and this dislocated the internal pin from ... Read review

Advantages: cheap, easy to use
Disadvantages: slow, not very durable

I bought this laptop 2 years ago. I was looking for a fairly cheap laptop with wireless internet, which I could use to browse the internet, do my work on and play a few games. It has been excellent, the screen is clear, big and bright, it is compact and lightweight. The only drawbacks I have suffered regarding this laptop is that the cursor occasionally \"sticks\". The battery life isn\'t very good and when the laptop is not connect to the mains ...
...it occasionally overheats after being used heavily for long periods of time (for example, all day), but all in all I think it is a good laptop which does what it says on the tin- it may not be amazingly fast but it does its job well and i would deffinately recommend it. ... Read review
