CNET Asia Review

Very good

7.5

out of 10

The good: High-resolution screen; display rotation button now available; good build quality; small but comfortable keyboard; integrated Webcam.

The bad: Low specifications are not really suitable for Windows Vista environment; expensive.

The bottom line: Better keyboard, rotation button and integrated Webcam are only some of the improvements the previous Kohjinsha SA1 that we appreciate. However, one major issue is in its choice of operating system. With a sub-1GHz processor and 512MB RAM, it would have been much better off going for Windows XP instead of Vista.

Quality product

Jun 23, 2008

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Light, usable, good response, large HD
Cons: short battery, hot air@right hand - heating up your thumb, only 2 usb
Opinion:
User experience is good with 2G RAM.
Recommend to install flash blocker (flashswitch for IE, flashblock for firefox), and TuneXP to speedup. CPU util is always under 10% and make it very interactive.

Good overall performance

Dec 28, 2007

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Very compact, hi res screen
Cons: average battery (standard), stylus not so accurate, average speed on vista
Opinion:
it could be a great pc if its package with windows xp tablet edition. Many have already downgraded theirs to xp and runs like it should be. Windows media player 11 laggy so you should probably get the media player classic. Yahoo messenger too slow for vista even at 2gb memory, while skype runs much better. so its with the cpu power. battery runs around 2.5 hrs with wlan, so better opt for the extended power pack. But overall im happy with it, will downgrade very soon.

Compact and Light -

Dec 11, 2007

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Love the design - Better screen and keyboard,silent,
Cons: With a DVB-T tuner this would have been ideal.
Opinion:
If the package had included a digital TV tuner built-in this UMPC would have been perfect.

I currently used it to transfer and show pictures taken from dSLR.

The 800Mhz (White) is a better buy, and increasing the Ram to 2GB does wonders.

I accept the limitations with the processor, but the size and weight issues kinda won me over. Anyway, this is ideal for people on the move. The portability of such a tool far outweighs the cons.
