Review Fujitsu Lifebook AH531 Notebook

Basic bundle. Typewriter, calculator, gaming machine, movie entertainment system, portable companion and survival artist. The 15 incher has something of everything, yet isn't outstanding in any single point. But: does it have to at a price of 550...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Good

Newegg rarely puts out good laptop deals. I got this for $550 elsewhere. Beware, you may get a bad battery. Mine has 23% wear level at time of purchase and had to get a replacement.

The build quality is decent. Looks stylish, but the chassis is made of mostly plastic. Equipped with an i5-2410m, which does pretty well for the price. The heat output is manageable

Would have liked a chiclet, matte keyboard. Screen has no anti-glare protection

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Loaded, inexpensive

Bought it else for lot lesser. Wonder if I can swap out the processor on this with a core core i5; hoping the prices drop when Ivy Bridge is released.

Second generation core I3 (Sandy Bridge)processor, large 500GB HDD, bluetooth (music and data), WiDi (Wireless display; call it wireless HDMI), express card slot (you can even add a USB 3 port through the expresscard slot), HDMI

All the USB ports (by the way, they are all USB2.0) are on the sides; would have liked some on the back of the machine. Even the power cord goes on the side. The SD card protrudes out when inserted unlike my 2 year old netbook where the card disappears...
