Review of Fujitsu Siemens ESPRIMO Mobile V5535

iv had better, yet it is quite good laptop.

Advantages: not bad laptop
Disadvantages: gaming

...I recently bought this Fujitsu Siemens ESPRIMO Mobile V5535 from ebuyer for £300 including vat. I had been looking around previously for a new laptop, but nothing too expensive, as I just need a cheap simple one to use until I can purchase a better one. After looking around for a few weeks I came across this one on this site, I looked around for the same laptop and because I couldn't find it cheaper anywhere else, I bought this one from them. It took just over 3 weeks to arrive and it arrived safely and In fully working order. The design of this laptop is ok, like I say this isn't anything special but it's a great laptop if you want great value for money. It looks quite business like, meaning it's a bit basic, however it wouldn't look out of place in a teenagers bed room either. Its really portable too, it only has a 15...

A "just what you want" laptop for a good price

Advantages: Core 2 Duo, reasonable spec to price ratio. Expandable RAM
Disadvantages: None so far, unless you don't like Vista.

...to 2Gbs - that should buy this some time before obsolescence overtakes it. It has bluetooth which is close to essential these days, with all the devices one end up with, and 4 USB ports, which I find just sufficient. It came preloaded with a 90 day subscription to Norton, Nero and Adobe Acrobat, which saves a bit of downloading from the internet. Has a backup disk of course, but just switched on and was ready to go. Very easy to use. Good value at a smidge over £500. not an amazing bargain, but for business use (i.e don't buy it if you only want to play games - there are better chips than this for that) a good solid purchase. I'm happy enough. For those of you who like techy stuff, here are the stats: Fujitsu Siemens ESPRIMO Mobile V5505 - Core 2 Duo T5450 1.66 GHz - 15.4" TFT Dimensions (WxDxH): 36.4 cm x 25.9 cm x 3...

Fujitsu Siemens

Advantages: Compact & Style
Disadvantages: Less Speed, No Varieties & Models

...System provided only 1 GB and it occupies space quickly and result in hanging and slow in action. The style is not much compared other models. Aesthetic is also not in line with better model. The Brand Name is very good and technical parameters very nice. Battery run time may be given higher level. Rates are not competitive. DVD provision is very good and i have also collected from my friends also product life is satisfactory but they cannot installed or loaded much packages or programes. Keyboard sytle is good. It is very useful in business purposes mainly. Comfortability, portability and durability is very satisfactory level only. it can be useful only casual users. Variety is not provided much. Can be provided varieties and stylish items....

Review of Fujitsu Siemens ESPRIMO Mobile V5515

A great laptop

Advantages: Price, spec
Disadvantages: Unknown durability

...This laptop has been selling pretty cheaply at Ebuyer recently. I'd like to say a few things that I feel are important to know about this laptop before buying it. Firstly, the spec is more than up to running 95% of programs in common use today. The dual core processor means that you get 2 processors for the price of one, effectively. The one problem that it has, which many cheaper laptops share, is that it comes with limited memory. However, in contrast to what the previous reviewer said, I found it easy to buy an upgrade fairly cheaply, at £14 from Ebuyer. This upgrade sped up the computer quite significantly. Overall, the computer runs well and for the time being seems to be OK. The main downside to using this laptop is that I worry that it will break down on me because it's not made by a manufacturer known for good...

Review of Fujitsu Siemens ESPRIMO Mobile V5515

A cheap laptop for office&internet

Advantages: price,price,price
Disadvantages: LCD, lack of scroll, weak GPU performance

...I bought this laptop one month ago as I needed one for university. I have chosen this one as it was the cheapest decent laptop. I bought for something around 280pounds from an on-line shop in Romania. In the package there was the laptop, AC adapter, network cable, a CD with drivers and one with Linux Knoppix. The first impression was that I bought it at a fair price. The plastic looks cheap but the keyboard is fine. First day I used it only connected to the AC adapter but second day I took it with me at work. When running on battery the LCD is awful because it looks so much darker and you can barely recognize it. That's the first negative point. The second one is that you don't have a scroll and as I am surfing a lot on the internet it is really crap. If you think of playing games I would not recommend it as it has the weakest graphic...

Fujitsu/Siemens Li2727

Advantages: Good specs, portable, cheap
Disadvantages: Bad customer service

...would send some disks that would put this right. So I turned off the Laptop to wait for the disks which, still have not arrived 1 week later. When I decided to turn the Laptop on again it came up with a message saying Disk Error, press any key to continue, I pressed any key and the same message was repeated several times but the Laptop would not start. I again phoned Fujitsu/Siemens and was told that it was to be returned to Comet for refund or replacement, but that they had to have a copy of the reciept from the manager at comet to send the code needed for this to hAppen. So I had to phone Comet to get this done, this was completed the same day( Thur), but no number was sent to Comet until the following Mon, this was when I finally decided to ask for a refund. I have not been able to asses how good this Laptop was, but can say honestly...

Review of Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 2727

Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Xi 2528

Advantages: very fast, very cheap
Disadvantages: could look better

...Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Xi 2528 This is the Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Xi 2528. It is a laptop designed for entertainment purposes whilst still being very cheap in price. Fujitsu Siemens are well known for their cheap laptops, and are also quite well known for making basic laptops and therefore don?t really have the best reputation in the market. However that is all changing now, instead of sticking to the mold of cheap basic laptops, there branching out and are starting to make ultra portable laptops that compete with sonys, and dells whilst being a lot cheaper too. They are now also making entertainment laptops with great specifications and features that come in at just a fraction of the price of some of its competitors and the AMILO Xi 2528 is one of these. The installed ram on this laptop is great, it has a massive 3gb which is...
