Fujitsu LifeBook P1610 Tablet PC (1.20GHz Core Solo U1400, 1GB, 80GB, Windows XP Pro, 8.9

 

Pick up the svelte Fujitsu LifeBook P1610, and you'll barely feel as if you're carrying a notebook PC. And no wonder: At 2.2 pounds, the $2419 (as of 12/18/06) P1610 puts the "ultra" in ultraportable.

Ultralight weight makes it easy to carry ; Touchscreen is convenient

Keyboard is a bit cramped ; Performance is sluggish

Attractive touchscreen notebook for use on-the-go, this model packs a lot of functionality into a tight space.

Fujitsu LifeBook P1610

 

One of the smallest tablets we've ever seen

Extremely portable; sturdy screen hinge; strong performance for a single-core processor; biometric fingerprint reader.

Tiny keyboard and screen; less battery life than comparable systems; can't be configured with a dual-core processor; cheap stylus; lacks a built-in optical drive.

The easy-to-carry Fujitsu LifeBook P1610 is simply the most portable tablet on the market, but there are better, less-expensive options for those who can carry a bit more weight.

Need a convertible tablet that's portable and works well? You can't go past Fujitsu's nifty little P1610.

One of the most usable and powerful ultra-portables, Portable and compact, Excellent touch screen

Gets hot during operation, Typically small keyboard, Low battery life

Fujitsu P1610 Review

 

As laptops become popular with more people we have seen a diversification of the products available, as well as the growth of subcategories.

Fujitsu LifeBook P1610

 

An A5 form factor, the Fujitsu LifeBook P1610 has all the features you would expect of both a tablet and a notebook while also offering 3.5G wireless ...

Convertible form factor, compact, lightweight, fingerprint scanner

Cramped keyboard, poor battery life, squint-inducing resolution

It's rare to find a notebook as versatile as the LifeBook P1610. There are certainly compromises to be made for its tiny frame and convertible design, but if blistering performance isn't essential, the P1610 is well worth a look.

Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook P1610 Ultra-Portable Tablet PC

 

A light, thin and highly portable tablet, but is it the must have business accessory?

That's because, unlike the P7230, there’s no optical drive, and as a result no space for the second battery. Given the size of this tablet this isn’t a great surprise and, as myself and others have pointed out in the past, of all the things we at TR...

FSC Lifebook P1610 review

 

The world's smallest Tablet PC now comes with 3G

HSDPA support ; Highly portable

Disappointing battery life ; Only mid-range processing power

An interesting addition to the Tablet PC ranks, but it loses points in a couple of key areas

Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook P1610 tablet PC

 

Tablet PC has never really caught the imagination of the average computer user. It's great for business, where the interactive screen can be shared by a couple of people for writing notes. Alternatively, for form filling it's handy and because you can...

Small, light

Not that powerful, poor battery life

The Fujitsu Siemens P1610 is great to use and its light weight means you aren’t tied down to carrying a brick around with you. However, its battery life really lets the useability side down. It may be great to use in meetings but we’d recommend using...

Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook P1610 review

 

Is it a UMPC? Is it a tablet PC? Who cares - it's tiny, and the nifty swivel screen and QWERTY keypad will have commuters everywhere drooling

Its decent screen and usable keyboard gives the P1610 an edge over the UMPC clan, but it’s underpowered compared to other ultra-slim laptops
