Asus R2H Ultramobile PC review

 

As laptops get smaller and PDA-style mobile phones get larger, a loose coalition of companies, including Microsoft and Intel, have been pushing a new category of mobile computing product, called the Ultramobile PC, or UMPC. The first generation of...

Large 7-inch screen; good battery life; built-in GPS.

Bigger and heavier than other UMPC systems; underpowered CPU; difficult to input text.

The Asus R2H is too big to be truly ultramobile, but its relatively large screen and decent battery make it good for on-the-go Web surfing and media playing, even if the onscreen keyboard is a chore to use.

Asus R2H UMPC Review

 

The R2H comes very nicely packaged, with a custom designed box sporting a carry handle

Nice looking with solid build ; Integrated GPS and mapping software ; Lots of ports available for such a small device ; Nice bright screen, great for showing pictures ; Very usable buttons that are nicely placed and thoughtful ; Built-in microphone and...

Overall performance is horrible due to slow Celeron M processor, especially slow when in battery mode ; Kind of heavy and chunky for a UMPC ; Some included software is badly implemented and buggy, or just shouldn't be there at all ; Hard to use the...

The Asus R2H UMPC is a device, like other UMPCs, has a bit of an identity crisis. It certainly can't replace a laptop or desktop as an everyday PC, but it's too large to replace a PDA. If you have specific needs and you know the R2 might fit those...

Asus R2H: A Geek's Dream Come True

 

This ultra-mobile PC is beautifully designed for every activity from word processing to gaming. But some of the software is taxing.

As far as I'm concerned, the Asus R2H ultra-mobile PC is a tech-lover's dream. A geek could hole up with it for days on end without missing a bigger machine or even a gaming console. This PC, available from Dynamism.com for $999, has just about...

ASUS R2H UMPC

 

The ASUS R2H is an ambitious little unit which has a whole range of features packed in, but eventually it fails to work well due to poor memory and pr...

Excellent portability, good image reproduction, stylish looks, handwriting recognition works well

Weak processor that cannot support intensive applications, movies and videos difficult to watch, no GPS software bundled, touch screen disables after intensive operations, screen resolution requires resetting every restart

This good-looking and portable unit has all the features of a great Ultra Mobile tablet PC, but nowhere near enough power to make it happen. With functionality issues like screen resolutions resetting every log-in and the touch screen disabling after...

Asus R2H review

 

The R2H is one of the very first Ultra Mobile PCs to make it to the UK. Is it a classic or a first-generation dud?
